Reveal Thread: Walrus Grab Bag 2 - The Walrus Strikes Back

Not nodium!

I knew from the comment it was mine because Epica is the best symphonic metal band out there

2 off nodium is good for me

Yeah that’s pretty cool! Are all his videos so short, though? Probably would have been somewhere around Satriani-tier, top middle or so.

Youtube has been recommending him to me, these short pieces seem to be his main thing for his channel. He does a bunch of cool stuff in crazy tunings too.

I am disappointed at the huge electric guitar bias ITT.

I love classical guitar, if you hadn’t figured that out…

I thought about submitting Asturias (Leyenda) or Recuerdos De La Alhambra by my boy Tárrega.

I’ve never heard a Flamenco version of Malagueña before. I’m used to the Spanish version:

Yeah, that Ben woods version stood out to me as being pretty different, but I dig it.

I love the Jiji version of Asturias that I posted because it shows how huge a difference guitar quality can make. It’s the same old song but on that guitar it sounds completely fresh.

@SwankyWilder how do you feel about your category? Is it just random songs or are they cohesive in some way?

I should have defined what I liked a bit better, I would have preferred a bit more randomness of styles for sure. There is almost a mini walrus of similar entries.

Hot hammered fish in the number of entries received

I’ve got a echocardiogram tomorrow morning so assuming they don’t keep me in hospital will be good to go tomorrow evening London time. Mrs S had a cataract operation last week, there has been far too much Hospital activity in the Swanky household recently - stress levels quite high

Was able to put together most of this last night so that today would mostly be a copy and paste job.

Thus, will be able to reveal earlier than I thought I would. Should start in the next 60 to 90 minutes.
