I really like The Endless River. Is it up there with Meddle, Dark Side, Wish You Were Here, Animals or The Wall? Not in my opinion, but I'm very happy with it all the same. Maybe it doesn't hit the highs of those albums, but I'm glad it was released to us rather than languishing in a vault.
Of course, Gilmour's tones are to die for. I'm a bit of a Gilmour fanatic. He's influenced me to really work on my vibrato and develop it as a technique of expression.
Here is a video of me doing Comfortably numb solo, I did not try to capture Gilmours sound just used my normal preset made a few mistakes to but always fun to jam Gilmour.
The latest release from the Phish archives. Took me all week, commuting, to work through all the shows in this one:
Hey Anthony
Steely Dan is one of my favorite bands - grew up listening to them-They had some of the greatest guitar solos ever-, by studio musicians like Kid Charlemagne - Larry Carlton-Killer solo. So many great guitar players played with them
2 of the best musicians of any time period- Fagin and Becker.
Also, I am probably one of the few Here that listen to Jeff Golub-google it-Killer Guitar player-mainly Jazz oriented, but he also was Rod Stewarts touring lead guitarists for years - he can play anything.
Me, too (acquired S8s recently). Amazing amount of detail. Can hardly believe what I'm hearing, particularly the sense of space and place on some bootlegs I've recently acquired.I bought a pair of Presonus Scepter S8s recently, and they are so detailed that I have been picking up tons of new things in songs I've known for a long time. .
Snarky Puppy...I know this is not just Guitar music, but these guys are amazing! YouTube Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_XJ_s5IsQc Also Umphrey's McGee...simply great jam band: YouTube Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dU64sC_Vnm8
Wondered if you were going. I decided to pass up tix but going to see the stream tonight in SLC.Tonight we're streaming the Fare Thee Well show happening a few miles away from us at Levi's Stadium!
Tried, but didn't get tickets and aftermarket (is that what we're calling scalped tickets now?) was way more than I could afford.Wondered if you were going. I decided to pass up tix but going to see the stream tonight in SLC.
LOL. I had a buddy call from Portland and offer us tix a few weeks ago... Hard decision but we're glad we passed (well, until we saw the setlist this morning... ;-) My wife won't watch streaming at home, just doesn't have the energy of being at a concert for her. Tonight w/ about 300 people will be great though!Tried, but didn't get tickets and aftermarket (is that what we're calling scalped tickets now?) was way more than I could afford.
It's cool though. Streaming is hella awesome these days. On the stereo and the big TV, blaring. And a couch to sit my arse down on when the kids get tired of my hippy dancing.
