Hello All-
1st, a big shoutout to Roger ( @canada-moose) — when he posted his version of Samba Pa Ti a couple of months ago, I fell in love (with the song, not with Roger!) and decided I had to learn it. My son, Craig, who was in town visiting, also liked it, and made a challenge to me. We decided to both work on the song for a month, & I agreed to post our videos on AM. So here is my version of Samba Pa Ti, followed by Craig’s. We both did a version that is pretty much note-for-note the original studio version from the Abraxas album. This song was a joy to learn & play, & I believe I’ll always keep it in my repertoire & continue to work on its endless nuances. Craig would love to hear your input on his video. This is his first time recording himself & I thought he did great, especially considering this song is far outside his metal/hard rock wheelhouse. Oh, & I also want to brag that Craig is a Captain in the US Marine Corps — we’re obviously proud of him. Thanks for reading my wordy post and taking the time to view our videos.
Cheers,
Gary
