Give Me the Night (Re-Mixed / Re-Imagined)
I was grateful and honored when Mike Boone asked me to play lead and rhythm guitar parts on his re-mixed and re-imagined version of George Benson's Give Me the Night song. I'm using a 1969 Gibson Custom L-5 for the melody and a Charles Whitfill Tele-type Slimline for harder-edge solos and funky riffs. I hope you enjoy it.
