Watermelon Man


Real Oldie!!! Normally done on sax but if you know me, everything should be done on guitar.

Just having a Herbie Han**** song in a guitar forum is enough to make my day. I noticed you changed up your phrasing a little to fit the style of the song at the beginning. Cool post, Ted!!

Great stuff! That's a really great song, I love the way albert king usually does it. But Herbie is, ofcourse, brilliant too!

I've always loved this song, the melodic hook is way cool. Haven't heard it in ages tho'.
You really made your guitar sound like a sax, phrasing i.e. Tone fitted perfectly!

I'm off to take a listen to my Herbie Han**** record now!
