Random question:

Does anyone know what setup John McLaughlin used in the Bitches Brew recordings? His tone is so fucking sexy and cool. I've been trying to tweak my current guitar to get the sound but I'm not having too much luck.

I play electric guitar primarily, have been for about 6 years now. I tried the piano, violin, clarinet and sax, but nothing is as good as the guitar. I can read music, but I'm very slow and prefer to play by tab or by ear.

I've played piano for 15 years and flute for 9 years. I can somewhat play several other instruments, but not well enough to count them. And yes, I can read music.

I played t-bone all through school/university. I didn't get any chicks. But I was amongst the very few that were chicks.

I also played sax, but am now on guitar (electric and accoustic)

Sounds fun. I've got a 4 track mixer on my desk. I can do guitar, sax, bass, or my specialty, voice.

*EDIT*

Oh, piano, and (even though it sounds stupid) recorder (to an advanced level).

I have been playing guitar for about 10 years with the last four focused mainly on flamenco (solea and tangos are my favorite). I have also been mixing and producing techno for about 7 years (I use a jp8000, mc505, and xl7 going through fl studio). I am kinda of a musical recluse though since I live in an area where people think flamenco is a pink bird and raves are unheard of.

This is a cross post between Music and Artwork. I read a suggestion somewhere that we should post requests for critiques in Artwork.

Anyway, there some new music of my band up at www.myspace.com/chessclub. Let me know what you think.

We're till interested in gig swapping between Memphis and towns close enough to drive to.

For You, and anyone else in the learning bass mode. I've been playing for close to seven years now, backing up with Guitar for five, and starting to record alittle on my own (on my second album, finally). Now that some of my credentials are laid down, I can say that to be a really talented bass player, you must be open minded, and ready to learn alot of music theory. Learn all the scales, (major, minor, and all the pentatonics) and modes for sure. A good site for this is www.wholenote.com or www.activebass.com. They are both excellent. It takes a while before you can do the slapping technique.
Recommended bassists to follow:

Geddy Lee (a la Rush) for speed. Songs: Freewill, YYZ, Tom Sawyer, Limelight
Flea (a La Red Hot Chili Peppers) for speed and funk style slapping. Songs: Aeroplane, All around the World, Californication
Jaco Pastorius (solo and weather report) For harmonics and jazz (VERY ESSENTIAL). Songs: Portait Of Tracy, Continuum, Teen Town
Chris Squire (a La Yes) for good solid rock (Songs: Roundabout, Heart of the Sunrise)
Simple Minds: Love Song, Sweating Bullets
and Finally, Victor Wooten, to just blow your mind. (billy sheehan Does the trick too).

Feel free to ask specifics. Some other bands that are worth a listen are:

Black Sabbath, Parliament, Led Zepplin, Kansas, LTJ Bukem, Pink Floyd, The Police, BareNaked Ladies.

Good luck To you All,

Love,

Mouse

I've been singing most of my life but I'm looking at 4 years with guitar, 3 with electric bass, banjo, mandolin, piano, and analog synth, 2 years on drum programming, non-sample based noise music, djimbe, doumbek, pipe organ, and I've dabbled in harmonium, cello, sarood, balinese gamelan, and mbira. I record all my stuff myself except for my first album, but I've got 3 others out and I'm working on the 5th and 6th ones simultaneously right now. Should have number 5 out before I leave Stockholm in December. I usually have my stuff online for free download, doesn't cost me anything to make it and I'm damn flatterred when people like it, so it's win-win. I do have four songs up on this myspace.com thing, so if you feel like it, here's the link http://www.myspace.com/andersolson/ I also make hip-hop beats for a friend of mine who's a rapper and play guitar and do backup vocals for a joke emo band called The Winter of Our Discontent http://www.purevolume.com/thewinterofourdiscontentnc that's just plain awful.

Side note, current gear vs. dream gear. Go.

All of the Izotope software
Various other VST, DX and VSTis (no illegal software)

Roland JV 1080

<b>Dream Gear:</b>

New computer
More modular synths (preferably the kind that I can build myself)
Better studio monitors
ditto on the studio amp (what I'd give for a vintage Macintosh amp in perfect condition)
another 15" for the Yorkville

I guess I don't have a lot of dream gear. Just upgrades for what I already have.

John McLaughlin, bitches brew... I'm not sure. He wasn't big on effects throughout his career. It was in his fingers man, all in his fingers.

Gear vs Dream gear?

Current
Gibson es 335
Fender Deville 65w tube amp
Fender Deluxe 40w Tube amp
Roland Cube 60 amp
Route 101 Telecaster
Gibson 1963 J45
Boss ME-50
other odds and ends

Dream gear
Would love a Polytone amp
Get some individual effects, a Line 6 delay, RAT, nice Passive Volume.
Want a Taylor Acoustic
Want a decent Classical
Would like to have a nice American Strat

I've played flute now for about 15 years. I also play the piccolo as many flute players do. When I was doing my music education degree I had to learn several other instruments you'd find in a concert band (saxophone, clarinet, trumpet, etc.) I have a pretty decent singing voice too, but I'm not very open about it.
