quote:
Indeed, Rob et. al. - I've thought of flipping over the guitars I now have and playing Gipsy Kings style (basses down, trebles up). I tried that a bit once I got my left guitar and played it righty that way. It's another fun challenge. Yeah, and the feet - in the future, I'll give it a go. The idea would be to play the "real" Entre Dos Aguas all by myself. After you have mastered "Entre Dos Aguas," playing left-handed guitar with the strings upside down, "Cotten picking" (or Gipsy Kings) style, you can really pay homage to Elizabeth Cotten by transcribing her classic song "Freight Train" into Cante letras and Cotten picking the guitar while singing a Cante style "Freight Train." Bill
