Here is the very cool TV show theme for Chico and the Man (1974-1978). It was composed by the great guitarist Jose Feliciano and is played here on my Ko'olau CE2 tenor. Hope you enjoy and thanks for listening:

 
That's superbly done. I remember the show. Only ran for four seasons, but unique.

As both Freddie P. and the Man, Jack A, have passed on, I wonder what has become of Jose F.

I have a CE-1 and love it, too.

Anyhow, that took a ton of practice, I can tell. Jazzy, closed chord splendor.

Shout out from IL.

Turns out he is alive and well and in the studio recording a new album. One of my favorite characters from the show was Scatman Crothers (May 23, 1910-November 22, 1986). "Stick out your can here comes the garbage man!" That little riff still runs in my head from time to time.

ukejon, superb, as usual!
 
Wow that was a blast from the past!


That is what I specialize in these days! Thanks for the nice comments.
