Hey All, great clip, Charles

doesn't get much more enjoyable than this

Love the harmonics at the end

Wow.

Great stuff.

Charles,

I have a love/hate relationship with your music. Some of it, like this, i love! :-)

Weet!

"gorgeous performance"......my wife said i had one of them once or twice

It always amazes me to see so many excellent guitarists with bad right hand technique. He's going to give himself carpel tunnel keeping his pinky on the soundboard like that. He's also inhibiting the vibration of the soundboard.
It's an excellent performance.

Considering he's probably gotten away with playing that way for 30+ years, my guess is he'll be OK.

I though it was a pretty sweet performance.

Thanks Charles -

I like that, that's a brilliant idea. I'll remember that. I'm off to Florida come June, and I'll definitely keep that in mind. I wish there was a similar idea for brits, but then, we don't even let our soldiers wear uniform off-base.

*pizzicato

Sometimes a note should be plucked by the left hand. Also rarely, the right thumb can stop a harmonic which is plucked at the same time by the right 3rd finger. This is borrowed from harp technique.

Charles- that was beautiful. Thank you for sharing it with us.

re: #69 Elydo
Wow, I didn't realize they couldn't wear their uniforms off base. That is truly a shame. Unfortunately, it wouldn't surprise me if that started happening here. When our daughter was a police officer she couldn't have her uniform on unless she was on duty, not even on the drive to work.

re: #65 Killgore Trout

I could listen to flamencos all day. Gypsies, too, except when they play Django note-for-note. One guy I really love these days is Gabriel Kirschenbaum, who plays on the two Sera Una Noche recordings for Todd Garfinkle's MA Recordings label. I haven't been able to find anything else of his, but his playing on those records is overwhelmingly good: so varied, so creative, so daring, so moving, that technique just disappears.

No, still not hearing it, Spanish or English. And I used to call cadence a lot. I'm just not getting the 1,3,4,5 thing.

I remember my Dear Ole' Dad talking about how he was introduced to the wonder of the Performing Arts while stationed in Baltimore. When he had leave, he and his buddies would go to NYC. Servicemen were allowed in FREE for standing-room only or if they had extra seats.

Such policies made it possible for a back-woods KY boy to begin a life-long love affair with Opera, Symphony and Ballet. He and my Mother still get excited when they hear certain music --it also helped him court his wife-to-be.

After he had his stroke, we put a boom-box with Vivaldi and some other CD's in his hospital room. EVERYONE walking by commented on how wonderful the music was. Even the nurses (who had never heard such music) took time to change out the CD's.

I wonder what the MET's policy towards servicemen is today.

I used to consider joining our Royal Marine Commandos - Reserves, once I was out of uni. I'm now considering waiting till I emigrate to the US, as I eventually plan to do, and joining the US Marine Reserves instead. I'd like to actually make a difference if I take such a step, y'know?

I guess we'll see, quite a few factors to consider.

re: #113 Pvt Bin Jammin

Some of our military have been harassed as well. It's disgusting.

If I make it to London remind me not to bother with Harrods.

And hasn't the Marine Corps made it illegal to stop off-base in uniform (their field/utility uniform...what do they call them now? DCU's...?)

Well, I believe the piano at the beginning is E (1), G# (3), A (4), B (5). Might not be the right but I'm pretty sure it's the right progression. The Tommy Emmanuel song has the same progression.

re: #37 rawmuse

Writing Pizz, is too precious or detailed with orchestration articulation. Sometimes composers like showing off by being detailed and obvious in their articulations or bowings. A perfect example would be writing cuivre' (french) or Brassy in English, for a trombone. This seems obvious: a trombone is a brass instrument so why overstate it? I suppose overstating it ensures that the trombone player sounds jazz-big-band and classical. Same with pizz on a guitar. The guitar can be plucked, strummed, legato or connected between notes and using sing pizz ensures that the notes will be separated, non legato, but will ring more than with a staccato marking. I am not sure about this but I think pizz has more body than a staccato marking. Its just your composer’s deliberate attempt to get the exact sound he/she wants -- a controlling device.

All that you need is in your soul,
And you can do this if you try.
All that I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.

Follow you heart and nothing else.

I wrote a whole song once in F,not the key mind you,the chord..called it..F

You could write another with F and A. You could call it "F-n-A".

re: #194 Sharmuta

Wait..Im sensing an album here..heh

This was blasted from the athletic field's speaker at The Kid's conservative, Christian school the other day.

re: #186 Sharmuta

I was always a fan of D7.

Eminor, my favorite chord.

re: #195 joecitizen

re: #184 Sol Roth

/not you Sol -- just posting music links!

re: #184 Sol Roth Yep, I saw him in the bathroom mirror not more than five minutes ago! LOL!
How are you doing Sol?

re: #198 joecitizen

thanks fer the Bach,by the way..

My pleasure!

Bach?

A friend of mine went to see Amy Grant in concert in Tokyo a number of years ago. Amy sang songs with piano accompaniment, and then she had a segment where she played guitar. She got up on stage, wearing nice duds, and started to play. But then she suddenly stopped.

Apologizing to the crowd, she proceeded to chew her fingernails off of her left hand. "Sorry, but I can't play the guitar with these nails", she explained. After the nails were gone, she did the remainder of the show and it knocked my friend's socks off!

Hee. Nail chewing chicks playing guitar is cool.

A little something from Stevie Ray Vaughan is it southern Rock, Jimi Hendrix or blues?

Nirvana even wrote a song called D7.

/But don't bother listening if you don't like Nirvana or grunge

Hey there realwest! I'm doing peachy; hanging with the family and sipping on some single malt with the dog at my feet.

How's everything in westworld?

Whatever. Who cares? Just go with it.

re: #188 joecitizen
Hey Joe - try C, Am, F and G (or if you like, G7). That'll pretty much cover any rock and roll song you like!

re: #206 Sol Roth Things are ok, I guess - you gonna be up late enough for a longish e-mail?

re: #209 MandyManners

You are right categories just mess up enjoyment.

re: #161 MandyManners

To my son, and all the other young sons of mothers out there.

geees love the song miss my mom

re: #172 madmama

Little Green Footballs is mentioned now at the ABC website..with a link.

It's a big site. Care to get a little more specific?

An interesting, and hitherto unknown, fetish.

However, the Quantum Rule of Fetishes now dictates there must be a website devoted to it. Also, Rule #34 of the Internet.

They're not stupid.

re: #184 Sol Roth

I got an email from him today, he seemed a little freaked. Seems that he is getting good care, but it's hard to go thru it at all.

re: #211 realwest

Hey Joe - try C, Am, F and G (or if you like, G7). That'll pretty much cover any rock and roll song you like!

yeah,I got all of those and..oh,you mean all in a row,huh? seriously though,I do have those but have you ever looked at a Dylan songbook? Theres chords in there I never heard of let alone played!

re: #213 x-ray

You are right categories just mess up enjoyment.

Just listen to the song. Ignore me.

re: #212 realwest

re: #220 MandyManners

I had already heard that one and started listening to this one.

re: #219 joecitizen Dylan? Oh he's more like Neil Young (and not cause they both have crappy voices) try D, Em and G (or again, G7 - maybe for Neil, maybe not for Dylan!).

I'm back! Had to post a link to this gem of an article from the BBC.
Next decade 'may see no warming'

It may partly explain why temperatures rose in the early years of the last century before beginning to cool in the 1940s.

There's more spin in that article than on a merry-go-round.

re: #230 realwest

Dylan? Oh he's more like Neil Young (and not cause they both have crappy voices) try D, Em and G (or again, G7 - maybe for Neil, maybe not for Dylan!).

Mr.Dylan is THE greatest singer in rockandroll history..Neil who?

But you perhaps are not aware of the foundational rule of "chick crushes".

See, girls often crush on each other. There's nothing sexual about it, really. Sometimes it's sexual, but most times, it's not.

Just a gal diggin' another gal. And with us, it's often emotional. Not like with guys, where it's only functional.

re: #232 joecitizen

I happen to like Neil Young, although technically I do not need him around, ennyhow.

It's on the opening page, down towards the bottom right, in the 'political blogs' section. It's about LGF's link to the 'Obama/uncle Tom' story.

thanks

Waylon and Willie.

re: #232 joecitizen No, Mr. Dylan is quite probably the finest lyricist in Rock and Roll (although most of his "folk years" stuff was better) but his singing is..........well hell, I can sing better than Dylan - just ask him, he'll tell ya!
;')

I know it's early, but I gotta go to bed Lizards!

Have a great evening and when it's done, weet dreams!

re: #236 madmama

Sure enough- there it is. Thanks, I was looking for it too.

play it loud (in the morning so as not ta wake mom) and by the way,the last 3 Dylan albums match or even rise above the earlier stuff..I'm just sayin'

This might be some good picking and strumming.

DC Talk does a Larry Norman tune

I wish we all be ready

Finally played the clip - very nice. Good audio even on small speakers.

And again congrat's on the "Book" category!

Incredible.

And a blast from my past.

David Bowie described Dylan's voice as
"With a voice like sand and glue"
I think he sounds constipated.
"STUCK inside a MENS ROOM with the CONSTIPATION blues AGAIN."

re: #253 song_and_dance_man

Of course, it was left to the courts, and that is a shame.

Thats BS. The only thing the Supreme Court did in 2000 was stop Florida from changing the election rules after the fact.

re: #229 x-ray I really loved Stevieray - but NOBODY touched Jimi. Nobody - not even my favorite, Eric Clapton.

It is always impressive to hear musicians that really command their instruments.

ha ha, i can honestly say that's the first time i've ever been called that.

Feh. CNN should change their call letters to BHO. All Obama all the time.

Long live the king.

re: #234 buzzsawmonkey

I like the primaries strung out over a longer period of time.

It gives the candidates a chance to prove their hand at raising money and gathering votes.

I also like the way a long campaign coaxes the eccentricities and the faults of the candidates to the forefront.

Look how long it took to expose the Obaminator for being a credulous fool?

Randomly select the order of the states by lottery. Then drag it out one state a week for 50 weeks.

re: #248 Syrah Hi Syrah! What do you mean this might be some good picking?! LOL!

re: #212 realwest

i blued my nic--could you add me to your e-mail list? would like to know how you are doing--thanks--mm

re: #262 x-ray

There is a difference between those who can play their instruments and those that can make them sing.

The clip is indeed beautiful, Charles. Thanks for finding these pieces for us. I would never have come upon that myself.

Very delicate. Masterful. Glad I actually clicked on it.
