Today I have been mostly listening to...

[TrimTheKing]

...George Baker - Little Green Bag

2 hour train journeys home every day give me a lot of time to kill, so after F&C was finished by the time I got to Lichfield Trent Valley I needed entertaining. Stuck the iPod on shuffle and up pops George. Great song, and coupled with the bright evening sun shining in through the window made me feel very jolly

Funny though, I have a wide ranging taste of music I generally turn to my old favourites like Foo Fighters. Bit of a difference :shock:

So, what have you been listening to today?

Cheers

Mark

Vaguely random stuff from the 'Pod. Reel Big Fish and Less Than Jake, so a reggae feel today.

I've just been turned on to 'Down to the Bone' which is on constantly in the shop and on the iPod.

I don't know how you do that journey every day Trim, I'd go bloody stir crazy!

Want some mag back issues?

Hermann Li -- the ultimate "shredding show-off" ! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ha ha :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
I made that CD up for playing in the shed when I'm turning, and it wouldn't be the first time that the big 5/8" Bowl Gouge has been used in anger as a 'substitute air guitar' !! ... A bowl always seems to take that wee bit longer, when the CD is on !! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Almost -- I think Yngwie Malmsteen or Steve Vai might tip him in the show-off stakes, no one can play a guitar with a back-combed barnet like malmsteen

:lol

Are those ultra-tight leather trousers the reason for his falsetto voice :wink:

 

[Jenx]

Yngwie would definately give him a run for his money Byron .. I'll go with that too ! ...
"Arpeggios from hell " :lol: :lol:
( have a look if you haven't seen him, here -->
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aS_IYe5JTZ4 )

Steve Vai, is technically superb ... but I dunno, somehow he just doesn't 'do it' for me ... which is unusual. I can't quite put my finger on it just 'why'... but he just doesn't hit the spot.
I prefer his teacher, Mr Satriani :wink: 8) 8) 8)

Great "call" on Yngwie :wink:



Here's one for you, thats often overlooked ....
ERIC JOHNSON ( he of 'Cliffs of Dover' fame.. awesome or what ??
:lol: :lol: :lol: )

 

[ByronBlack]

I saw eric johnson when he toured with the 'G3' - I was suitably impressed. Talking of satch's students, I'm a big fan (predictably) of Kirk Hammet

 

[kityuser]

ok ok, this is more my field 8) at last some musical taste.

yngwie, ALWAYS on my ipod touch
steve vai, yer I`ll take it or leave it, the mans got skills
Satch, again ALWAYS on my ipod, always a staple chill out

but "the MAN" HAS to be the god that is Mr Joe Stump.

I have all the tutition dvds, all the cds, the man is a legend.

of course for shire speed you can't really come close to:
