So I got this gig touring with a Tina Turner impersonator (on guitar) and it got me thinking about the Iranian guy who does Hotel California on the Qanun on Youtube. how do you guys think an Oud Interpretation of "Private Dancer" would sound?

:mad: Crazy but also cool if you start with a short taqsim :airguitar: C

Farhad Besharati...I would love to hear him perform some traditional Near Eastern music for a change...but kinda appropriate (I guess) given that Southern California has the largest Persian community in the U.S. California dreaming?

Peace,
John

I was just being silly before anyone tries to convict me of Oud Heresy by the way :D

But this lady is something. she does this like chronological review of Tina Turner's career and has different periodic wigs for the 70s 80s and 90s and everything. Maybe I really should actually try to get her to let me fit a Taqsim Bayyati somewhere into Proud Mary (D chord for like 20 minutes).
