Shane Speal - The Jug Fusion Sessions


Frankly I thought this would be a lot more raw, hill country style playing.  However, there is some good stuff here and I have to give Speal a lot of credit for throwing even the kitchen sink into this.  There's straight-ahead rock, there's kazoo, solo instrumental to full bands, swing pieces, Eastern influences.

I've always wanted to build one of these guitars.  Speal has a great site full of plans and forums and all kinds of tips on building anything from the simple to the advanced.  And it doesn't stop with guitars, there's violins, lap steels, banjos and ukes too.

    Thanks for the kind words! I had planned on removing the download (it was supposed to be a limited time thing, but I got busy and forgot). Since you've blogged it, I'll leave it up a little while longer for everyone to enjoy.

    THANKS!!!

    ps. I'll be playing live at Speal's Tavern in New Alexandria on Oct. 30. We're unveiling the Cigar Box Guitar Museum that night! http://www.spealstavern.com
