A Swan in much less pristine hands than mine

After all the squeaky clean clips I've posted, people keep asking to hear a Swan with some dirt and some attitude. I just don't have that in me, so I asked my friend Dan Desy, a loyal Swan fanatic, to come up with something for me. He went way beyond the call of duty and cooked up an entire piece of music. It certainly has a bit more edge than any of the clips that I've always posted.

Here's a link to a page I threw together for his song.

And for those who don't want to go to the trouble, here's a photo and a direct link to the song. (BTW, you can visit Dan's MySpace page at http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm...ndID=165933762)

Wow, thanks! This even beats the comment Jim's brother made about it

Well, part of the fun was imagining Jim wincing when you'd do whammy gymnastics and crying uncontrollably at the distorted guitar army sullying his beautiful clean machine!

(And no, I know he's cool with it. But it was a fun visual. So sue me - my imagination runs away with me sometimes. )

Great tune, tone, and playing, Dan!

Hey, don;t blame me. Jim built it, all I did was torture it a little. But I had a ball doing it!
