Jimi Hendrix's and a few others' Guitar Techniques.

trotskyismyniece posted this on Jan 19th, 2010 at 03:01:08 pm:
"The thing that always sort of blows my mind is how much guitars just look like toys in his(Jimi Hendix's[Albert King's/Stevie Ray Vaughan's]) hands. He's always holding the neck at such a weird angle almost up near his shoulder, and his hands are just too huge." Trotskyisnyniece is speaking about Jimi Hendrix but the same is true for Vaughan and Albert King, though they all held their guitars in different playing positions.
I agree with the Hendrix hands/playing technique mystery thing. When you see footage of him playing, it's not like you see him playing the notes. His hands just make a big swathe of movement about the guitar neck. Jimi, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Albert King all seem the same in this respect. You watch a video of them playing and no matter how closely you watch, they seem to play the most amazingly exact riffs while employing this un-definite, unclear, "broad swathe" fingering technique(like an actor "playing" guitar in a movie with fake guitar playing movement). You watch other players and you can see what they are doing visually in relation to what you are hearing. Not so with guys like Vaughan, King and Hendrix. I played with both BB and Albert King; I have sat there and WATCHED Albert CAREFULLY at rehearsals and jams. I could hear and mimic what he did, but to WATCH him, I couldn't tell what the fuck he was doing on the guitar neck!
Albert King tuned his guitar to a 6th or 11th chord(depending on mood and material), like a steel or "Hawaian" guitar.
Stevie tuned normally, albeit a half step down from "CONCERT" tuning.
Neither of those facts have any bearing on being able or NOT being able to determine by observation what they were doing as far as fingering technique.

The Button Ladies of Liberty Avenue(Pgh, PA)

I found myself in a fix today and it caused me to remember the little long, skinny shop on the north side of Liberty Avenue in Bloomfield. It was either between what is now the tobacco store and Howlers or just past Howlers or ,maybe, up past Pearl St. in that block near the sweeper and hardware stores.
It was 2 older women with their shop full of spools of thread in every color and texture/source material imaginable. And BUTTONS! Jars, drawers, boxes and walls full of buttons of all types. Lost a button? They had the replacement or could order it.
What companies does one order buttons from?
I used to work on Liberty Avenue at a place called HH Sales. It is the little stand alone structure off Pearl St.. There is maybe a drive in parking space to the left(west) and a little fence to the right that leads to the back of the building. Anyway, when I worked there it was HH Sales, a fairly empty place with a few items here and there. All variety of items. Clothes, cassette decks, calenders, knick-knacks, kitch shit. The place was a front. For what, I never asked and never was told, I only worked there. There was a police sting operation one day with the attending newspaper reporters and television news crews- the next day, back to normal.
HH had another store, a little grocery, down near Baum Blvd on the corner of x and x streets(I'll remember and place the street names).
He was also into real estate. He had properties in Bloomfield. Commercial and habitable.
One time he invited us workers at his various "businesses" and other friends to a "House Burning" party and cook-out in the North Hills. He indeed burnt a furnitured property of the old late 40s to early 50s suburban style. A sturdy brown bricked, angular place with 2 chimneys. The local volunteer Fire Dept. was on hand to make sure the fire didn't spread to the neighbors' homes, telephone and electric wires or the suburban flora. Beer, soda, grilled hot dogs, bbq, macaroni and potato salads flowed Every now and then the firemen would handle the occasional troubling hot spot with a dousing. Far be it from me to say whether he got insurance money or not but HH built a nice new home there and perhaps is still suffering privation there in his dotage.
At that time I was seeing a woman that lived in Garnet Way. We used to call it Garnet Mimms' way after the soul singer. I was playing in blues bands. On good afternoons I used to sit on the steps of the church at Pearl and Liberty drinking a quart(there were no 40s yet) of Iron and smoking weed; sometimes playing my guitar. I didn't smoke cigarettes yet.
Stevie Ray Vaughan spent a night in that little place in "Garnet Mimms'" Way. That was when I 1st met him.

Black, Mods and Rockers; Pittsburgh Style 1960s

In this photo: Rockers.
In Pittsburgh there were "mods", "slicks" and "young blacks" that were different than our Negro parents. No true British style mods, nor true British style Rockers. I was a young black mod/rocker. Slicks were "norms". Mods were the 1st mass gtr generation. We began learning to play British invasion, folk, blues, top forty, country, bluegrass and r&b/burgeoning soul on our guitars. Not pop. We hung out at Lomakin's Music on Liberty Avenue downtown, Tarshis' Music on Baum blvd. in East Liberty off Highland Ave., the "listening rooms" of the various National Record Mart stores, Point State Park, and the Village Pizza on Ivy Street off Walnut in Shadyside. We began to wear leather jackets over "Carnaby" fashioned shirts. We accessorized with iron crosses, swastikas(I know),leather boots and garrison belts, wristbands of leather and steal link chain, etc. Some of us began smoking weed by late fall of 64. After I moved to Boston circa 1966, I found acid which had been slowly leaking out of Cambridge to the general mod/hipster public.

http://www.radioliberty.com/Symbols%20and%20their%20meaning_files/swastika.jpg

SWASTIKA 1: Ancient occult symbol of the sun and the four directions. Revived by Hitler, it represents racism and the "white supremacy" of neo-nazis. Like other occult symbols, it is often placed inside a "circle".


http://www.radioliberty.com/Symbols%20and%20their%20meaning_files/swastika2.gif

SWASTIKA 2 (Crux Dissimulata): An ancient swastika which symbolized the four winds or directions and their corresponding spirits. It was also a "fire and sun symbol occurring initially in Asia and later among the Germanic tribes," according to The Herder Symbol Dictionary.[4] "The cross inscribed in a circle mediates between the square and the circle," emphasizing the "joining of heaven and earth.... and "the perfected human being."

http://www.radioliberty.com/Symbols%20and%20their%20meaning_files/symbol22.gif

SWASTIKA 3: A contemporary variation of the many swastikas with labyrinth patterns. Like the two swastikas above, its arms point counterclockwise indicating a mystical, lunar and female orientation. Compare its two intersecting lines with "Sun Sign 2, its curved arms (following the shape of the circle) with Swastika 2, and its dark areas with the "Iron Cross."

http://www.radioliberty.com/Symbols%20and%20their%20meaning_files/cros-iron.gif

CROSS (IRON or EISERNAS KREUZ): Also called Mantuan or Maltese cross. First linked to an ancient goddess temple on Malta, it was adopted as the Iron Cross in Prussia. During the First World War, it appeared on German fighter planes and tanks. Later, it became a fascist symbol in France, Portugal and other nations.

I post these in refute of the Nazi meanings of these symbols and would refer you to their TRADITIONAL meanings BEFORE they were appropriated by Nazi Germans.
In the Mods/Rockers(Early Beatles) era of the 1960s, we wore these Swastikas and Iron Crosses with leather/Carnaby Street fashions with their ORIGINAL meanings' intent; we wore them in defiance and repute of the 1930s-45 Nazi significations.

New Year Eve and Emily Love's Birthday Party

Photo: Erin, Erin, Emily.

I really loved meeting the Erins and others. It was such a comfortable party. Like at Joel's comfortable parties in Wilkinsburg; out back in the neighbor's yard there was even the little pond with running water making the sound of Joel's neighbor's outside space. I will always remember going out in the night to find the lost woman who had been wandering around looking for the place in high heels over the icy causeway, starting from around the SHARP EDGE(over a mile away!). But the party was waaaay down Penn Ave past 40th Street!!!! Wandering alone after 1am she was trying to find the party that was such a long, lonely, cold, uncomfortable, scary(she lives outside of PGH)walk for her. She called for help and I just happened to hear that guy trying to figure where she was calling from, but by him repeating what she said, I knew where she was and lit out and found her walking, and got her to the party! What the hell was HER name, BTW? And then I met the amazing Hilary. Oh, and that women that was standing talking on the basement stairs, who suddenly lost her angle of repose and toppled, knocking EVERYONE ELSE domino style down the stairs into the basement with a long, loud, rolling, thunderous noise that caused the whole house to go quiet! PRICELESSSSSSS!!!!!!
I hope the whole next year rolls along so riotously nicely as this party did. Cannot wait to see the pics from Erin's cam. I took the library of grabbing her cam and shooting away. She is gonna wonder who the f... took those pics, HAPPYNEWDAYOFBIRTHYEAREMILY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Psychedelic Music and TV. 1960s

Velvet Undergrunge was anti-pschedelic, like anti-folk of the current day. They were of the time and locale of psychedelic music and were lumped in the list as such, but they were, in fact(like Thelonious Monk, of the era and locale of Be Bop but himself something unique, other, and , outside of Be Bop, a sort of anti-Be Bop)) anti-psychedelic. Their own upper, downer ridden, s&m dirty speed madness of Chelsea, the Village/Harlem, New York and the East below Boston, which was, somehow, much more San Francisco-like it seems to me.

MUSIC:

Electric Music For The Mind And Body by Country Joe & the Fish
East-West by Paul Butterfield Blues Band
Two Virgins by John Lennon & Yoko Ono
The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter by The Incredible String Band
Jeremy & The Satyrs
Sailor by Steve Miller Band
On The Goodfoot by James Brown

Beatles listened to Pet Sounds and were like, "WTF? We gotta do something!"

Post Dylan BAND heard the 1st 2 Procol Harum albums and were like, "WTF, we gotta do something"

Parliament and Funkedelic heard On The Goodfoot and were like, "WTF, we gotta do something."

Miles Davis heard Are You Experienced and On The Goodfoot and was like, "WTF, I gotta do something!"

Chuck Berry heard Muddy Waters....

Oh, yea! Sid Barret mad cap laughs is sidekedellic..

The Fugs' 2nd album, not the boobs a lot album. The 1st was still too post beat, pre psyche. The 2nd album was/is pure psychedelic.

DYLAN
Following the acoustic neo-folk pre electric proto-psychedelic in lyric and atmosphere(pot smoking-like) ANOTHER SIDE OF BOB DYLAN, Bob went full tilt electric, folk-rock, rock blues electric with not one but THREE psychedelic standards! Each more heavily psyche than the last.
Bringing It All Back Home
Highway 61 Revisited and
Blonde On Blonde

(Think of these Dylan albums as kin and precedeing to Beatles' and Stones developements after the fact of the Dylan albums: Rubber Soul[pot smoking, pre-psychedelic], Revolver[early psychedelic] Sgt. Pepper[full blown psychedelic] and on behalf of the Rolling Stones, Metamorphises, Flowers[even though a makeshift album, it is of the period] and Their Satanic Majesty's Request.)

If you doubt me, forget the music on these 3 Dylan discs and just go along with the poetry/lyrics/feeling&dealingsand such. They are the shit! Dylan went electric in 1966, jumping full blown into the psychedelic sheee bang!
By the time the Beatles went "full blown" with Sgt Pepper, Dylan went anti-psyche with New Morning. A new realism streak in Dylan narative style.

Dylan's NEW MORNING, followed by NASHVILLE SKYLINE
led the Grateful Dead to WORKINGMAN'S DEAD, instead of beyond Aoxomoxia as intended. Then, AMERICAN BEAUTY.

I will be surprised that no one questions my inclusion of James Brown's "Get on The Goodfoot" album.

(Black Psychedelic)

Black Merda(rare album)

The sophisticated psychedelia of the Motown JUST MY IMAGINATION album, fuck! The Temps?

Stevie Wonder, TALKING BOOK and the following album.

That one Marvin Gaye album.

Early Sly.

Late period Chambers Brothers.

Mid-period Bobby Womack

RICKY NELSON, after becoming RICK NELSON had a psychedelic album. It was, alas, too much for his hardcore base of 1950s fans to bear(?)and too much off the radar of fans now turned on to Motown, raw soul, top 40 pop, British Invasion, post folk, folk rock, jazz psych blues rock mix, of the day, that had turned away from the squeeky clean "Ricky Nelson" style of pop, to care that Ricky Nelson, too had "tuned in, turned on and dropped out"! You MUST check him out from the early 1950s THE ADVENTURES OF OZZIE & HARRIET tv episodes to his lone psychedelic outings of the late 1960s.
I can only picture you loving it!

Though a psychedelic album, I consider the Moody Blues' "Days of Future Past" a mostly worst of the 60s album.


Psychedelic lifestyle and music began earlier than most are led to believe. The Hullabaloos had way longer hair than the Beatles or Stones or ANYONE at the time on the TV rock show HULLABALOO. (Tiny Tim had long hair in the late 1950s.)
Before Pet Sounds, Rubber Soul, etc., there were ever more psychedelic singles percolating up from the pop of the mid sixties. THE SEEDS, SAM THE SHAM, BLUES MAGOOS, SKY SAXON, the PSYCHOTIC REACTION dudes and countless other garage/early psyche bands.
We knew things and music were changing and getting weird and there were these early garage/psych bands getting weird with pop music and DYLAN at a sorta forefront and you wondred if the Stones and the Beatles were gonna fall behind.
But NOOOO. Along came the blurryeyed outta focus stoned Dylan BLONDE ON BLONDE cover pic haircurlsflowing and the Beatles WERE getting weird, too! Just look at their now longer hair and lack of suits in the cover pics of RUBBER SOUL and the songs' content and chordal structures are changing and yes the Beatles, followed by the Stones, were getting weird as well!!!
You cannot imagine how exciting this all felt at the time!
BETWEEN THE BUTTONS pretty much follows the album right before and into RUBBER SOUL. The Stones pretty much, as long as the Beatles were active, followed whatever the Beatles did.
How about the fact that the Beatles made a pretty much acoustic rock album years before(Dylan's) NEW MORNING and others, when George and John ditched there electrics for those fat-assed acoustic guitars just as Dylan went electric? What the fuck Beatle album was that? Beatles '65 or some shit? I'm gettin' old.

Can't be Beatles '65 coz Dylan went 'lectric in '66. Or maybe they {Beatles}went acoustic as/so Dylan went 'lectric.
Actually Dylan hinted at an electric persona with CORINA, CORINA on one of his last acoustic albums.

The established bands (US & Europe[Stones/Beatles]) in the case of psychedelia were followers media wise. Like I stated, tons of bands were making burgeoning to full blown psychedelia singles and a few albums. The Beach Boys, being from California got a slight edge on the Beatles, concerning the psychedelia thing. The San Francisco and surrounding area bands were digging the long jazz/rock solos by Mike Bloomfield, Paul Butterfield , Mark Naftolin and Elvin Bishop on the EAST-WEST album. When the Paul Butterfield Blues Band played San Francisco, the Dead, Moby Grape, the Airplane and others dug their(Butterfield's) long solos building to a crescendo and breaking back down and soon began to follow suit!

That is to say a portion of the San Francisco Sound came from Chicago and, through the BLUES PROJECT, NAZZ, BARY & THE REMAINS, LOTHAR & THE HAND PEOPLE, THE FUGS, THE GODZ, JIM KWESKIN JUG BAND, THE HOLY MODAL ROUNDERS, a small degree from NY and New England.

WEST COAST POP ART EXPERIMENTAL BAND a second rate, SF style(WEST COAST), psyche band with one good album(pictured above in a thread).
ANDY WARHOL'S POP ART EXPLODING PLASTIC INEVITABLE, a multimedia(EAST COAST) "happening" w/ film, actors in audience infiltraters, projected light show, s&m acts and looped film projections, live band: VELVET UNDERGROUND, Nico gallavanting about "vamping" the crowd and singing with the VELVET UNDERGROUND. This all in Boston at the Institute For Contempary Art, 1966? It was summer and as a part of the "happening" they heated the room! Warhol produced a TV show that Nico hosted on PBS called POP ART THEATER. The VelVeTs would sometimes play a tune.
It was on every Saturday afternoon in Boston. Pittsburgh(Channel 13 WPGH) chose not to carry it.

Andy Warhol's POP ART THEATER on PBS was a mix of post war 1940s through early 1960s SATURDAY AFTERNOON THEATER MATINEE type entertainment mixed with a Friday/Saturday night(11/11:30/12pm, maybe 1am depending on what part of the U.S..) horror picture style host. Nico would present a few cartoons, a news reel and a nature, public interest, or geographic short or all of the above, followed by a grade B or C Hollywood release from the silent years up till, like, 1960. Nico presented and spoke about the films and sometimes, at the end, would do a song with the VeLveT Underground or John Cale or Reed.

About POP ART THEATER. This was the mid-1960s. There was no retro TV programing, yet. No "oldies"nostalgia shows. Warhol was on the cutting edge on PBS, which, at the time, only reluctantly carried the program in select markets/cities due to Warhol's imminence at the time!!!!

A Wild Behaviored Woman That I Recently Met

The following is an account of a scamming woman I met through my nephew, and youngest brother. It text is from an internet online discussion board. She has since burned her kitchen out, the stove falling through the floor to the basement, she had her oldest children assist her in putting out the fire using long garden hoses, "why didn't you call the fire Dept or 911?", I asked her, later. " I didn't want them simple bitches sennnin' no fuckin' whities to my house!", she replied. Anyway, my adventure with Dark Princess with comments by others on the messsage/discussion board:

iratejones posted this on Sep 29th, 2009 at 02:56:03 pm

I typed this really fast in a chat with someone so it is a bit jumpy bit here's the deal: Crazy time yesterday. A crazy woman I met recently story: I met an interesting young woman in Larimer(a Pittsburgh neighborhood) a week or so ago. I already saw her beat the fuck outta some big dude, then yesterday was with her and the dude she beat up; she ran scams on McD's and Home Depot, ran red lights, nearly killing us, etc. I would not help but she goes in the Home Depot and came out with a few hundred $ worth of goods she somehow got from them, waits 20 minutes then has someone else return the goods and they split the cash they were given back, but how did she get the goods and a sales slip in the 1st place? She wouldn't explain coz I would not help. She grabbed 3 or 4 things around 60- 80 bucks each. She just called (which prompted me to make this thread)and she's trying to guilt me into going to Home depot with her today, saying she needs food money for her kids(7 and she's YOUNG!). She hung up coz I said i wd rather get her some food with food stamps. If her kidz are truly hungry, i just know she spent that money on drugs. Her one kid walks around the house on downers with a machete in his hand. She's intriguing in a way She keeps sayin her scam ain't illegal. anyway we went through McD drive thru and she has these receipts and complains about they fucked up this order and somehow got them to give her 13 burgers and fries which she fed her kids with, amazing! How can she get away doing this shit daily? Anyway, I think she is lying about her kids need food, and just wants me to run the Home De scam with her for drug money, I refused. She got mad and hung up. I've only seen her smoke weed but she is pretty hopped up before that even on something or other and drives dangerously. She HATES white people. I was in the Trader Joes parking lot holding her pitt bull and some lady pet it; she came over and screamed at me to NEVER let some dumb white fuckers touch her belongings because it will give them bad mojo. Then, when she was doing the McDonalds thing she asked thru the intercom if the girl was white coz, "I don't wanna white bitch taking my order." She's one of those peops that if u try to b real friends with u will only ever b her hostage and victim. I always feel sorry for and fall for people like her, not romantically, but sympathy wise. I bet if u followed her around for a month u cd write a book.

I have had only 3 meetings with him and he's a nice guy, a good player but fuckin' rockin' on some shit and talking all in your face constantly with bugged out eyes, and sweaty PLUS, sadly, I learned he has ADD, which isn't helped by his getting so hyped, but, I'm glad to have a bass player that plays nice.

my brother worked at mcdonalds and if someone walked in and said they just ordered from the drive thru and something was left out of their order they were told to just give it to them, no questions asked. so that would be an easy scam. i can't see in duane's post what the mcdonalds scam was though.

I'll go in with my gtr and tell her to wait in the car, if the scene don't look good I'll invite her in, she'll see the whities and go ballistic, gig will not ensue!

She HATES white people. I was in the Trader Joes parking lot holding her pitt bull and some lady pet it; she came over and screamed at me to NEVER let some dumb white fuckers touch her belongings because it will give them bad mojo. this is my favorite part

NIMH, she's asked to come over but I am afraid to let her see where I live and my pc, and gtrs and shit coz i am SURE she wd get some of her buddies to burgle my house. I'd go to her house but her 17 yr old is on drugs and walks around the house with a machete constantly in his hand. I saw that annd will never go inside again! Maybe sometime in her car? She is good looking and has made it clear I could have at it, if u know what I mean. Afraid I'd have to wear three layers of "hoodies"; can u say STD?

this is the deal. Duane, if you hang out with this lady I can see you helping her get to rehab and getting her shit together. you'll end up getting hurt because as soon as she sobers up she will associate you with her past life and dump you. I dunno duane, you've had women like this in your past. write a story that's a composite of all their most interesting traits and sell it.

"...saw her beat the fuck outta some big dude, then yesterday was with her and the dude she beat up; she ran scams on McD's and Home Depot, ran red lights, nearly killing us, etc." "She HATES white people. I was in the Trader Joes parking lot holding her pitt bull and some lady pet it; she came over and screamed at me to NEVER let some dumb white fuckers touch her belongings because it will give them bad mojo." Also: "She is good looking and has made it clear I could have at it, if u know what I mean." Well. Wow, that's SOME priorities.

I know my stories seem incredible but they happened, some I have photo proof of, others u gotta pump people that have known me for a long time, but I have very little need of lieing coz my life is adventure upon adventure, sometimes I get dates, names and places wrong due to memory drops, but the stories are true. As happyneck says above I have gotten women like this to go to rehab.

OK, I recall a lady who throw up on the griddle or what's it called at some restaurant and her vomit sizzled just like an omelet,is that one of your stories duane?

iratejones posted this on Sep 29th, 2009 at 07:54:06 pm

That sounds like that Debbie woman I took to rehab for xmas one year, I do not recall that particular incident but she was full of things like that, if it was her it was at Nicos Gyros that was near Larry & Carol's Pizza. She was REALLY drunk and would only whisper in my ear. They asked me to take her outta the place and she went behind the counter and turned all the soda fountain shit on, threw raw eggs all over the place, poured out their syrup on the floor counter and seats, etc. And yes she came outta rehab, got her child back, got a good job and never spoke to me again, 'cept I hear how she is doing through a mutual friend. We were making love one night, she was on top and she went to kiss me and threw up into my mouth. THAT was a fun night! I think that may have been her. Her parents owned classic Chevrolet and the old Classic Lounge in Bloomfield(now, the Asian restaurant near Shure Save).

Jethro posted this on Sep 29th, 2009 at 03:04:06 pm i was thinking that there must be a cashier in on the Home Depot scam Yea, Jethro, I keep trying to figger this out. She has to know some cashier that gives her the shit at a huge discount, but somehow the receipt is the full price. Otherwise it wouldn't be worth it. Now me, I wouldn"t mind stealing this belt she wears with a cool assed huge, blingey, gold, zircon or cut glass encrusted skull.
