Not to mention the man was responsible for the greatest salad dressing in the history of all salad dressings.(seriously!) And the coolest scene in all of film history when he ate 60 hard boiled eggs in 1 hour. What's the name of this film?(was it 'Cool Hand Luke'?) He was in prison on an island somewhere......Paul Newman was one cool dude and a fine man as well.

It's gotta be the singer/lead guitarist!!!It worked for this musician.... My wife is WAY outta my league from a physical standpoint, seriously....

Here are some choices to play the mystery chord. I've been playing guitar for over 25 years, have studied extensively classical guitar and jazz guitar, and i've never once encountered this chord. It's probably a  basic, dimished, split chord of some sort but without knowing the specific song from which this mystery chord is derived here are some possible ways to play this booger of a chord;

Good luck, play around with the possibilities and go with the one that sounds the best!.............

Good stuff! Great chops and the maturity of a person way beyond his 16 years. We'll be hearing many great things from this young man, in my opinion..... Thanks for sending this clip Altex.

No offense to you specifically Ray but,.....I must say this,

A decent vocalist and front man/boy/whatever, in the past tense in only a musical sense(from the guidance and direction from a group of pre-established, capable musicians ie; older brothers) . He was a puppet, he did what he was taught to do by his bandleader(s), and manager(s). A freak in the modern world in the sense of what is legal, moral, and acceptable in our society and which most of us decent and moral citizens of the the universe reside in, a coward(allegedly) in  failing to stand up and admit he has done wrong against naive children and their money grubbing parents(allegedly). This 'thing' never wrote a  complete tune from 'start to finish' and to give this beast accolades of any  sense in a complete form is totally wrong and unjust . (period) Don't be blind to the obvious. Eeeeee-Heeeeee......(please refrain from grabbing crotch and moonwalkin', unless you really want to?!?!?!?Eeeeee-Heeeeeee!!!!)

..........or get tons and tons of hits on youtube and then get signed by some blood/money thirsty agency. This seems to be the latest 'get rich quick' theme for a few lucky performers out there today.

         I'll stick with doin' it the old fashioned way;play live gigs, do as good as you can, hope that lots of people will talk about you and get more people to come out and hear  you play. It's pretty much all the same to me personally, I'm gonna be playin' my guitar at home or at some dive bar, restaurant, festival, or whatever. Anything else that comes along is only an added bonus. Play music for the love of music, and/or payin' the mortgage, student loans, pre-paid college funds, vehicles,new guitars, etc........ A wise friend of mine always  said, 'hope for the best, expect the worst'. (ie- have a back-up plan to get through the hard times!) There is no secret formula, just try, just try..........

This sounds like like a job for the intellectual wizard of our bunch.......... "Calling James McCormick, calling James McCormick".....

On my acoustic guitars I use 2 different types;

1) When playing my acoustic/electric with an active pick-up I use D'Addario Nickle Jazz strings(.12-.52). The pick-up and electronics have more relevance on the sound and tone. Therefore I like the nickle strings mainly because they do not lose sound quality as the life of the string takes it course. The sound almost exactly the same when I first put them as they do just before they break/ or need to be replaced.

2) When playing my acoustics that require a mic in front of the guitar, I use Elixir Polywebs 80/20 bronze custom lights (.11-.52) There is a noticable difference with these strings vs nickle, bronze, or phosphur bronze strings. The life of these strings too are far greater than most other strings I've used through the years. They are well worth the extra money...........

Daddycool,
You're a gifted lyricist and I'm sure your songs are more than worthy of notice and great acclaim from others outside of our Chordie circle. It's just a matter of being in the right place at the right time. Just keep writing your wonderful songs and get out what's within. Self expression and pleasing yourself with your songs is the most important thing, in my humble opinion. Thanks for sharing your gift with all of us here at Chordie.

ps-don't sell yourself short, there are lots of successful musicians out there who have 'made it' that certainly don't  have the 'golden tongue'. And remeber that the performer is always their worst critic. Keep on keepin' on.........
