Was listening to the radio on my way in this morning and they were talking to the lead guitarist/lyrisist(sp) for Journey. Neil something-or-the-other...and he was saying at the ripe old age of 15 we was asked by both Santana and Eric Clapton to join their bands can you imagine. I guess I don't follow music closily enough as I have never heard of this guy, but I do know Clapton and Santana...so this guy must be good!

I must say I cannot go past The Edge - Dave Evans. Other guitarists have greater mobility, and are freer with their instruments - that goes without question. - but Evans has a niche, a dedication to sounds and melodic/rhythmic parts that gives him an unmistakable "voice" and define a song, an album. He is a true craftsman and sonic sculptor.
Django Reinhardt is another - albiet on another spectum entirely - taking a disability and surpassing lesser mortals. His and violinist Stephane Grappellis melodic intertwinings are simple breathtaking. Melusine, you and your muso gags ------------------ I am the walrus!.... er, no hang on....

Morodin, Journeys guitarist is/was/whatever Neil Schonn (spelling?) the only one in the band any good lol. He put out an albumn WAY (1984 or so) back with Sammy Hagar, and a couple others accomplished musicians that was very good.
Guess nobody got my Johny Bravo joke oh well |

LMAO LoA!
Johnny Bravo was Greg Brady huh? I just got Eric Johnson's Alien Love Child/Live And Beyond and his Venus Isle CD's this morning. The Live CD is not bad although some of it sounds too much like a practice session or just a jam session. I guess seeing it done live would make hearing it an experience but I like some methodical flow to music. I am just putting Venus Isle into the CD player so I have no set views on it other than I am looking forward to hearing it. Moni ------------------ |
