Major Snagg is the invented name of the 'band' that perform all my own musical creations. (songs and instrumentals). I play guitars, bass, rudimentary keyboards, harmonica, and sing. Melody has always been important to me... lyrics and guitar solos have to say or communicate something.
I create musical worlds that I hope that you dear listener, will also want to explore and live in for a few moments...or longer if you feel that way inclined.

As it's Summer, I thought that I'd move this old recording (from 2009) up to the top of the list. I remember enjoying playing this at the time. Not sure if I could still play this. I'd have to do a bit of serious practicing.

A rich arrangement hosting many wondrous sounds. Love your guitar work. Great take on a classic iconic song. Nice touch with the waves fx. Perfect for the summer theme.

This is a very cool interpretation of the song. Great rhythm track. Nice change up at 3:03. Very nice lead guitar tones and acoustic guitar work. Nice ending and great production David! There's something about your music/guitar playing that has a goose bump factor for me. Very cool.

Fantastic guitar tones in here - the medley flows really well from piece to piece and the tone is sooo fluid. Did I mention the tone?
Great stuff once again David.

works great on this. Nice work!

Amazing - I'm blown away by this! A difficult job to pull off and you've done it perfectly. The Girl From Ipanema is difficult enough, but you've added in two other great songs to form an outstanding medley! Superb guitar playing and outstanding arrangement. You really are one of the best guitarists and arrangers on this site..or anywhere! Brilliant!

Bravo David,
I had a big smile listening to some Jobim favs like "wave" and "girl from ipanema". Liked the way you melted together those tunes. Neat playing too.
Kudos

Nice Dave...i know only too well how hard this is to do. Being basically a blues guy, i struggle to play cover melodies and stringing them together like this was ALOT of work. Very well done...i liked your tones, the rhythm playing, and the great outro. Smooth listening. Excellent!
