| | Slide Guitar -- The Basics |
| | As a matter of fact, one of my favorite electric slide guitars is a True Tone, distributed through Western Auto Stores back in the Dark Ages. | | | From a practical standpoint, any guitar can be used as a slide guitar. | | | In most cases, however, it helps to have the action raised a bit higher than is found on stock guitars, meaning the strings are raised a bit from the fretboard. |

| | Yet, because these songs are based on traditional music structure, the appearance of the electric guitar only adds volume and does not adopt the Western idiom of rock music. | | | Because the traditional music is so beguiling, I hope this music will be preserved for future generations and created at the Saharawis' true home, the Western Sahara. | | | The ten tracks marry traditional Hawl with contemporary Western sensibility and all of the tracks revolve around the political struggle the Saharawis face and their hope for liberation. |
