Oddly Enough, This Has Been The Year Of Jimi Hendrix
Oddly Enough, This Has Been The Year Of Jimi Hendrix It’s been almost exactly 47 years since Jimi Hendrix was laid to rest. The music icon famously passed away far too early, at age 27. And though his music was legendary, it would be easy to understand if his influence had faded over the decades….
A great classical guitar player: Maria Kämmerling on #neuguitars #blog
A great classical guitar player: Maria Kämmerling I would like to thank Jens Rossel for showing me Gunnar Berg’s music, introducing me to Maria Kämmerling and overhauling this assay. Vinyl records, LPs are a great passion. I love collecting them, more for the pleasure of handling them, touching them, looking at the covers, more…
Masayuki Takayanagi’s #playlist on #neuguitars #blog
The guitarist Masayuki Takayanagi was one of those extreme mavericks who combined virtuoso playing and extreme grasp of musical theory with radically atonal freerock amp destruction, inspiring and pissing off contemporaries throughout the entirety of his forty year career. Indeed, he was notably ostracised by the jazz community in the late-60s for having described them…
#Recensione di My Heart Comes Undone/Because EP di Giacomo Fiore, 2017 su #neuguitars #blog
Recensione di My Heart Comes Undone/Because EP di Giacomo Fiore, 2017 E’ un po’ strano trovare un EP nel campo della musica contemporanea. Questo tipo di formato discografico, in origine una via di mezzo tra il breve 45 giri e il più impegnativo 33 giri, è sempre stato appannaggio del rock indipendente e spesso rappresentava…

Review of My Heart Comes Undone / Because EP by Giacomo Fiore, 2017 It’s a bit strange to find an EP in the field of contemporary music. This type of record format, originally a midway between the short 7 inches record and the most demanding 12 inches, has always been the pride of independent rock…

Recensione di freeHorn di Larry Polansky, Cold Blue Music, 2017 http://coldbluemusic.com/cb0049/ Qualche anno fa (2010) ascoltando il disco VVEAD FootHils Jam di Michael Vick, raccolsi il suo sfogo sulla mancanza di interesse da parte dei compositori nei confronti della chitarra fretless.
