VIDEO: "Sweet child o' mine" on the 古筝

You know how it is here at WWW. When Walt's not first with an item, he's often a day (or a week or a month) late [and a dollar short. Ed.]

I meant to post something special for Agents 78 and 88 for the Moon Festival, which was, errr, a couple of weeks ago. But it took me until just now to find this tuneful and delicate cover of "Sweet child o' mine" -- originally recorded by Guns 'N Roses -- played by Michelle Kwan on an ancient Chinese instrument called the 古筝.



Oh... 古筝 is written in Pinyin as "guzheng", pronounced more or less as "goo jung". Very pretty, eh? The tune too. Hope you liked it.

Note from Ed.: Any resemblance to Agent 78 is purely coincidental.
