Telegraph Road 52:36 I’ve been working on this since October, and it was very challenging but also a lot of fun to try and capture the essence of these songs. I primarily play fingerstyle guitar, so my electric guitar playing is influenced by artists like Mark Knopfler and John Mayer, as well as acoustic artists such as Tommy Emmanuel and James Taylor. Also, I didn’t do the last third of Telegraph Road because it’s already 10 minutes long, and as fun as an extra five minute long super-jam would be, it took me a solid two days to get to that point in the song. Maybe I might finish it in the future. No promises. For more information on Ian or the video, visit or like his Facebook page at PATREON: SECOND CHANNEL: Thanks for watching!
