I love this tune. I used to accompany a friend on clarinet on it before he passed away. The Duke Robillard version that the OP links to is really nice.
Here’s my attempt on solo guitar. I’ve been doing a lot more gardening than practicing lately, so it’s rough. I’ll try to work on finger mechanics and clean it up.
It's been awhile since i last logged in here, but there's a strange synchronicity in that i was just playing
'If I Had You' a couple of days ago, and here it is as this month's standard...
and so, off to the shed i will head, since there are still a few days left in the month!!!
In any case, here's a quick 'baseline' recording, playing the melody and changes from memory, and
without the benefit of my 2nd cup of am coffee:
Hopefully it will get a little better...

Well, I ordered it. Apparently shipping from SF, so yeah, not long now. :) You can use your existing wireless AirPods as monitors to listen to a previous track and easily create multi-tracks with...
The demise of budget to midrange priced guitars manufactured in the U.S. happened or at least began a long time ago. Now only the high-end models are made in the U.S. PRS and Musicman both have...
Looking to sell a Comins 7-string concert in violin burst. I thought I could do well adding a lower end but have come to realize a 7 is above my pay grade.
Condition is excellent with only minor...
I would say that reports of the death of the USA guitar industry are not to be believed. While it is true that regulations and labor costs keep USA guitars at a price point disadvantage compared to...
No.Besides Gibson and Fender you have Prs,Knaggs,Collings,Musicman etc all making fine guitars.Some of their prices might be seen as absurd but they are well made guitars.
Thanks to everyone contributing to this thread. Your bravery has inspired me to learn from your example, though I suspect 8 weeks won't be enough :redface-new:

Wow, you're paying £100-£150 per gig? Madness.
Play solo or in a duo.
Edit. Lovely tune. I play it too in my duo :smile-new:
Edit 2: reading your post again I sort of see what you are saying...
How do I set playback in Reaper to my computer speakers? I don't want to use monitors or headphones. I want to mix to suit pos speakers because that's what I listen on and what most people listen...
so are we seeing the death of the USA made guitars and does anyone care for the most part?
i love quality guitars and i have a love for USA made guitars most of mine are. and i dont think all USA...
That's a beautiful instrument . I can see why you bought it. Is the 7 string not what you had hoped. I had an American Artist years ago that sold at a loss due to the 7 string. Never quite took to...
Do you think that a Super 400C would be much different than your Heritage built New Yorker replica? I have played a late 1960's Super 400C and to my ears, it sounded a LOT like my Heritage built New...
Mr. Diehl gets wonderful tones from his vintage D’Angelico archtop guitar. Good stories from his playing and being a part of the NYC jazz scene between the 1950’s-1970’s.
