Futtocks Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Just finished listening to the new Pink Floyd. It sounds beautiful and 'big', but nothing has grabbed hold of me and made me sit up. Low-to-mid-tempo tracks where atmospheric guitars and keyboards wash over you, but one track merges into the next a bit too easily. I think Gilmour's just too comfortable to push the boat out, as far as songwriting goes, and he doesn't have Waters to bring the edgy*, uncomfortable side of things.*I hate that word normally; the most vapid of showbiz adjectives when applied to a corporate meat-puppet who acts out a 'bad boy/girl' image. But it's relevant here. "We are easily breakable, by illness or falling, or a million other ways of leaving this earthly life. We are just so much mashed potato."

Ullman Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Following of the the TRL Guitarists thread, here's Leo Kottke covering The Byrds. That's a good version of a fine tune. I've always liked Golden Earring's somewhat lengthier version too. "Coming from East Hull people automatically think you should go and play for Hull KR.

WearyRhino Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Yes, and despite what it sounds like, that's just one guitarist. There's a British bloke called Adrian Legg who is from the same mold as Kotke but I think even better and with new tricks! http://youtu.be/cUpeQytOCLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Futtocks Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 I saw Adrian Legg doing a demo of a new amp at the British Music Fair years ago. Unfortunately, he spent more time fiddling with the amp's controls than he did playing, and it still sounded awful. Good player, though.

Stuart Duffy the Bradford Bulls football manager is a superb guitar player. He plays in a country band called the Collier Dixon Line. He uses a very similar effect to get a very realistic pedal steel effect. WELCOME TO THE ROYSTON VASEY SUPER LEAGUE 2015 Keeping it local Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Frightful Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 (edited) Aside from listening to music on the radio, I haven't spent much time listening to music of a personal choice recently. I decided to change this and had a gander through the Youtube vaults last night and came across a song by a band I adored in the late eighties. Don't suppose many of you will have heard of this but it's an incredibly haunting version of an old Irish folk song written around a hundred years ago. Never fails to give me goosebumps, saw them perform this more than a dozen times live. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=052DGZh2_3s Edited November 22, 2014 by Old Frightful "When I saw the Pistols and The Clash I realised it didn't seem that difficult, they didn't seem like they could play very well either, so the thing was to form a band then work it out. We didn't even know who was going to play what - we passed around all the instruments until we found what we were comfortable with. I wasn't comfortable with any of them so I became the singer." Terry Hall on forming The Specials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
