A Day in the Badlands by Bruce Arnold - Rob MacKillop Acoustic Archtop Guitar 

The book I mentioned is available here, alongside many other fascinating books by Bruce: muse-eek.com/category/guitarists/

Beautiful

Love it Rob, thank you.

Revelling in the marvel of this latest composition Rob, beautiful, evoking and meditative! Those chord shapes are way out there! It conjures up an atmosphere as if the piece wants to communicate a long lost tale! Well, that's fixed my evening for a settled 8 hours of peaceful sleep! Thanks Rob.

I will be listing to your recordings for a long time since discovering you just know. You are beautiful!

Wonderful music and the guitar sounds great.

Amazing, Rob, as always. I need to get a hold of this book!

Love all your video's sir and I've learned a great deal from them. I'm 70 now and grew up in Yonkers New York just north of New York City. My first two teachers were two old cats that had been born in Italy. They were real "plectrum" guys playing arch-tops and all kinds of arrangements. I did all the volumes of the Melbay Methods and never regretted it! Ha! I just wish that I could have afforded a tape recorder to record them guys. Keep well and keep picking.

Film Noir Jazz creation with Alien chords . The Day the Earth Stood Still would have been my choice tittle for this haunting piece . Beautiful sir . Merci

This is wonderful! Is the music available?

Hi there Rob! This is such a hoot. Bruce forwarded your email (and this video) to me. I wrote the words to the "Day in the Badlands" for the recording that came with the book. I was singing along with your playing ;-) I can tell you that Bruce is mighty pleased with your rendition.

I wonder if you are still doing online lessons. Ill send you an email. Thank you for all the inspiration.

Very atmospheric piece…. (Can I just ask what gauge strings you favour for acoustic archtop? Thanks)
