Rock. Solid. Groove.

I was in a bad mood until I watched this. Thanks Hakan!

(If 12 bars of one overblown note wasn't in-your-face enough, to end it with a precision waggle - double-time vibrato - at the end was over the top!)

I say ohhhh yessssssssss!
Mister, that is a powerful piece of stuff you have put together there. Sounds just great.
The thing I hate about it is that I didnt think of it myself!
That'll make a lot of 'em back up and idle. I really like it.
Regards,
Joe Lee

Okay, you may have fixed Arzajac's mood, but you depressed me. I've been playing around with the melody a little bit. I hadn't sat down and really learned it, but there is no way I can top that. Awesome.

But where is the steak? And with a robin in the picture next to you why aren't you playing Rockin' Robin instead?

Great job as usual Hakan.
Peter Madcat Ruth did a great solo harp version of this tune on his Harmonicology album.

I created the backing tracking with my recording equipment since I don't play bass or drums. I updated above with more info about my equipment.

Rockin' Robin is a great tune but this one has a more powerful intro 1, 2, 3 oclock 4 oclock rock... It's too good to be true!

Yeah, just saying... you couldn't find a steak or a clock to stand in front of? :)

I had too many steak videos already...

I was thinking of clocks or maybe some text in the video, but I decided to make it more clean. It was better that way I think. It's fun to include different things in the videos but often it's not that fun after a couple of day.

Fair enough. And you can only eat steak so often before your doctor starts throwing words like 'partially clogged' and stroke around. :)

Great playing.
