https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=13618570The Tele-man (Neil Cotton) The guitar man learns a track and lay’s it down It is country music’s tell-tale sound It’s played on a Fender made in the 50s After a few notes it resonates with me. The Tele-man is picking the lead so clear and strong That Telecaster axe adds star dust to the song. Leo knew his craft when he built his guitar He also made many Tele-caster stars Remember Merle Haggard’s Working Man Blues Hot Rod Lincoln was a Jerry Reed tune Keith Urban’s hit called You Gonna Fly Brad’s & Dolly’s song Whiskey Lullaby The Tele-man is picking the lead so clear and strong That Telecaster axe adds star dust to the song. Leo knew his craft when he built his guitar He also made many Tele-caster stars It’s big for rockers not just Country Listen to Keith Richards and John Fogarty The Tele-man is picking the lead so clear and strong That Telecaster axe adds star dust to the song. Leo knew his craft when he built his guitar He also made many Tele-caster stars Leo knew his craft when he built his guitar He also made many Telecaster stars

Good attempt at using BIAB riffs, Neil. It's difficult because the great BIAB riffs sometimes cut too short. The trick is to find a lingering note in that chord, cut it and paste it where you want it. ( I presume you have a DAW where you can do that sort of edit)
Sometimes you just have to play it yourself and chop it in.

Vic, Yes not totally satisfied with the riffs but...gives an approximation or sketch. If it were to be pitched, it would have to be better...thanks for your tips. I did one copy & paste. Ideally I should look harder for more. If I were to record this , I have access to some good players., not me.

Really enjoyed this Neil. Everything worked for me from the vocals, the music, and the mix.

Cool idea, Neil. The Telecaster is a worthy subject for a song. Only thing I noticed was the Brad & Dolly line...that should be Brad and Alison (Krauss) Ricki
