50 years ago today... at the age of 27, Jimi Hendrix died.
Some say he was the greatest rock guitarist of all time.

Bringing a tinge of hope for the year that bring so much lessons, so much grief

I was going through some YouTube bookmarks and came across a video of guitarist Yngwie Malmsteen doing a tune called Arpeggios from Hell. He has another video describing his signature guitar and how the fretboard features scalloped cuts between the frets that allow for less resistance and much faster play.
It's not a new concept as some Asian stringed instruments dating back a few hundred years have scalloped fretboards, but in the rock music world some of the best (or flashiest) players have them.





The average music listener probably doesn't know or have heard about scalloped fretboards but it's an example of how some guitarists can attain those blistering fast solos!

Any requests? I will start with “The Gambler” and “Hurt” his last song.


What do you consider to be the best song "Johnny Cash" ever sang?

Grant "Twig" Baker (Durban, South Africa) finds the perfect line down he face and to the shoulder on a huge paddle peak at Jaws, Maui, Hawaii on November 12, 2014. Video by Elliot Leboe. A Nominee for the Paddle-In category at the 2015 WSL Big Wave Awards.

A lady about 8 months pregnant got on a bus. She noticed the man opposite her was smiling at her. She immediately moved to another seat. This time the smile turned into a grin, so she moved again. He seemed more amused. When on the fourth move, the man burst out laughing, she complained to the driver and he had the man arrested.
The case came up in court. The Judge asked the man (about 20 years old) what he had to say for himself.
The man replied...
"Well your Honor, it was like this: When the lady got on the bus, I couldn't help but notice her condition. She sat under a sweets sign that said, "The Double Mint Twins are Coming" and I grinned.
Then she moved and sat under a sign that said "Logan's Liniment will reduce the swelling", and I had to smile.
Then she placed herself under a deodorant sign that said "William's Big Stick Did the Trick", and I could hardly contain myself.
BUT, your Honor, when she moved for the fourth time and sat under the sign that said "Goodyear Rubber could have prevented this Accident"..

..I just lost it......."CASE DISMISSED!!"

Every once in a while I will hear a song on the TV or in a movie that just sticks with me. I'll find myself just thinking of it out of the blue.

I listen to a lot of metalcore, rock, post hardcore, but sometimes other genre's of music produce that song that holds onto me.

Last year I got hooked on a show called, "Nashville". Yeah, I know, it shocked me, too. But it has a good story line and I really enjoy listening to some of the songs that they sing.

This is one of those songs that touched me deep inside. I love the lyrics. It's a beautiful love song.

Please listen, if you will. I hope you enjoy it.
