Love that. I love that type of music. The old stuff. You could just feel it.

Yep. Glad to oblige. I think I looked this up after reading it in a Rolling Stone article - maybe about great period guitar pieces - can't remember. Regardless, it is great.

Also, much love to the Melvins.

Lastly, this and Let's Talk About Music are probably my favorite LGP threads, and may get me through a long cold hockey-less winter.

About now, frustrated that the hammer-on, pull-off isn't working, With 2 days to go until we all get together, gotta practice more, Had it down before. holidays are made for stress.

What issue are you having with it? Practice playing each note with individual plucks first before hammering them on with the single strum, if that makes sense.

You're trying to learn that guitar lick, BigMck? Is it finger strength or timing? Praftice those in quick flurries, maybe 4 (then 6 and 8) in a row - break - 4 more - etc, to gain strenght. Find that fire inside and attack. Concentrate on the initial hammer to begin with. I think I know what you're talking about. Maybe your strings are too high. Mine lay right on the frets so I can gently place my finger(s) down and never have to worry about fighting the instrument. If you've got a cheapo guitar, find a good tech and see if he can make the thing play easier for you. I also like low string tension. Just any way to make it easy.

Prefab Sprout...you said the magic band name for a certain poster.

Big Pig was another ridiculous band name from that era. Some awesome memories associated with Bonk.

Oh, yeah. This is the charcoal.

BigMck - After you learn that lick, you can practice this.

I know I would much rather have dancehall or ska or reggae played at mine than some mainstream dance/pop/rock. That music really grabs me. Almost mesmerizes me.

Prefab Sprout...you said the magic band name for a certain poster.

Who? You have to tell me because I don't have anything about it in my volumes of lurker notes or LGP poster dossiers.

I don't really have those things. I turned them over to Interpol years ago.


LOLOLOL! Nevermind...the search function is my friend. Hey, Gaucho!

Somebody mentioned the best band ever and I missed it. Shame on me for going to bed too early... 3am, I think.

Guess this world needs its dreamers...may they never wake up...

One of the more underrated songs by the B-52s, IMO, despite its repetitiveness. It's just fun. None of Fred's sprechgesang. (BTW, that's one of the maybe 7 German words or phrases I know, and I think it's a good one.)

[Gaucho]

I'd love to hear you pronounce Sprechgesang.

I took 4 years of French in high school and 3 in college. Even though that was eons ago, anything I try to say in German sounds like what I'd imagine as a pidgin between Cockney English and Portuguese. Nowadays, my eroded French only comes in handy when I need to decipher breaking hockey news on RDS.com.

Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and Johnny Cash.

The legendary force is strong with this one.
