Ironically, Jimi Hendrix passed away 53 years ago today. Stevie Ray passed away 33 years ago on the 27th. Both passed with the boundless talents still in their infancy. The world was robbed of what might have been. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lone Spur Jake SASS #7728 Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 I really enjoyed listening to all of the downloads. Better than any of the hip-hop crap nowadays. But, when listening to the Ventures, well I just want to jump into a "4-speed, dual quad, positraction 409" Chevy and go drag racing!

I owned a ‘64 Impala SS with that very same setup! I’ve described the car and the experience elsewhere in this forum. It was a BEAST! Here’s a Beach Boys number for ya’s!

Lone Spur Jake SASS #7728 Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Like the song "Those Were The Days My Friends, I Thought They'ed Never End". Beach Boys, Jan & Dean, and all the rest of the great musicians, of when our country was the greatest place and time to ever have lived. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He messed with time signatures, I loved his music. Take Five and Blue Ronda al la Turk were my favorites. Very challenging for a drummer especially. Joe Morello was his drummer.

Take Five and Blue Ronda al la Turk were my favorites. Very challenging for a drummer especially. Joe Morello was his drummer. We do/did a lot of numbers with odd time signatures and polytonic orchestrations. I remember reading Gregg Allman’s book where he said that when he wrote some of the more interesting pieces, he didn’t think about time signatures per se. He thought about the beat in groups, like three threes and a two, ( 11/8) or a four and a three, (7/8) and just wove the lyrics and the melodies into a song. Syncopated rhythms and time signature changes just sorta’ fell into place. As a band, we gravitated toward the more intricate rhythms and unique key combinations, (speaking of my own group) because they were more interesting than the 1,4,5s and such. They were usually more challenging and they’d leave an audience looking amongst themselves in surprise, thinking “did those guys really just pull that off?” Got us a lot of choice gigs over the years! My choral music teacher in high school explained that there were few, if any, real rules in music. He backed it up with an example of a composer who wrote music for piano that was played with the forearm! I guess some of that stuck with me! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackwater 53393 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 (edited) This one was featured in a John Wayne movie! I used to whistle the tune when a particularly annoying boss of mine poked his nose into the shop. He had absolutely no business in my area and he was morbidly obese and took pride in being so. He never figured out what the tune was! Some others there did and got several years of amusement out of it! I know! I know! BAD ME!
