As I was searching for some music, I came across a YouTube video of Jerry Reed playing and singing Papa’s Knee, one of my all-time favorites.
Hearing and watching Jerry play Papa’s Knee inspired me to pull out one of my guitars and record my own rendition of it. The recording is an mp3 and was done this morning using GarageBand on my iMac, an old Limited Edition Alvarez flat top guitar, a capo, a $25 Logitech USB microphone, and no special effects. I’ve been wanting to tinker with doing this kind of thing, and so this seemed like a good opportunity. I could, in time, add a page of my music. But, given that I don’t know how it will impact the site’s bandwitdth, I am going to hold off for a while to see what the effect one mp3 being downloaded has.
Well, here’s the recording: Papa’s Knee
I hope you enjoy.
