I received my first Howard Emerson Cd with a message in the case, in the mail yesterday and i got to listen to it 2 times last night and once again this morning, great music, love Howard's fingerstyle-open tuning and slide style, it's definitely going to inspire the building in the shop!

Thanks Howard, i look forward to buy more of your great music in the future!

Serge

Yes, thanks Hesh, forgot to mention that it was the "A tale to tell CD, just EXCELLENT!!! Can't stop listening to it, his sound is just out of the ordinary and transports you in a very peaceful way, Love it!


Here's the link to his website:

And to listen to a few samples, just click on Listening station, Cool music!

Serge, his songs "The Bells of Tina's Kitchen" and "And Why Not" are played on a ladder braced guitar just like my little one, in fact Howard's guitar was the inspiration for building one. When he came thru my area last year he did a house concert near me and played my guitar for a couple tunes during the show.
Hopefully Howard is working on a new one soon.

Here is a clip of Howard playing my guitar

Hey hey, Thanks again for sharing this great video John, i'd love Howard to be inspired with more great music like that and buy it!

I'd also love to build me a guitar that would sound like yours and practice this tune, what a great sound!

Thanks a lot John!

Serge

Let's say that Howard has a very enjoyable style!

LOL] yeah but your Lightnings can play a mean game during the playoffs where it matters the most, you already stole 1 Stanley cup too many, just making sure we are ready for the real season this time!

Yeah we did fight and battle and held on to win that cup against Calgary.Oh,thats right we did sweep the Habs that year.<GRIN> Stole 1- Naa We WON a cup!!(a cup)just 1,How many have the Canadiens won Serge ,about 40 or 50 or more? Amazing storied franchise for sure!     I don't think we will make the playoffs this year,The way its going,But they could heat up. It's a long season my friend.I can hope!

Dave, just a tiny 24 Stanley cups! Yes, with the many teams that have joined the NHL, you guys now have way more chances than if you would have joined in the 70's when the Habs were winning almost every single game with the Magic team it had back then!

When they won their last one in 93, i think i heard the commentator on TV say that the Montreal Canadians were the sports team who had won the most titles throughout history among all sports or something meaning that.

Coincidence, i'm now wearing my Habs t-shirt from 93 that i bring to the shop, gonna score on some planks me thinks!

Cheers

Serge

Oh yes, I agree.With all the expansion teams,Everyone has a better shot at it!I remember those super Montreal teams that you mentioned.I read somewhere that one of those teams only lost 8 games all year!!!Incredible. Man,I could talk hockey all day,I love it!    thanks Serge

Dave, i think you're refering to the 1974-75 edition, they were simply too strong, they were beating every team by 5-6 goals and sometimes 8, we hardly see that nowadays but i think the show is more exciting that way, creates more suspense untill the end of the game when the score is tight!
