Red House🎸Steve Costello🎸1-26-2026 🎸Blues guitar

🎸"Red House" 1-26 -2026 - Steve Costello plays a new take of "Red House". Steve loves playing Blues, including doing many takes of "Red House" over the time line, such as this new take of "Red House" recorded on 1-26 -2026. 🎧 Headphones or good stereo speakers are best for listening to this take, rather than played from a phone or tablet's built-in speakers.

👂This new take of "Red House", plus many older takes aren't doing any good just sitting on a hard drive, so Steve decided to upload more of these Red House takes with the hopes that someone may enjoy them, and if only one person likes it, then it makes it all worth it.👍

🎸 Steve's versions of "Red House" follow a standard Blues progression (created by Cosmo), that is different than Jimi's versions, as the bass line and keyboard are unique to Cosmo and Steve's versions. Steve's guitar playing in each "Red House's" are each different, reflecting the current mood, and are of a variation that is inspired by the many live versions of Jimi's "Red House" that Steve enjoys. This version is not a copy of anyone's version, but an original rendition.

👂This version of "Red House" 1-26 -2026 has been mixed with stereo headphones for a full balanced audio mix in both Left and Right channels.👂

🎸Steve is not a "Jimi Hendrix Impersonator" doing "note for note" transcription renditions of Jimi's songs. Rather, as Jimi played each "Red House" unique and different, every take of Steve's "Red House" takes are uniquely improvised and different, complete with idiosyncrasies, as this take is certainly different. There are some surprising unpredictable passages in these guitar solo verses. It is what it is.

🎸The Guitar solo starts at about 4:10 second mark.
