HISTORIC QUOTATION, & CONSEQUENCES?
"The Blues, this shit for partisans of slavery" Miles Davis.
We already know or we learn that jazz was more than music for Davis; it was also a politic & racial fight. Stopping playing Blues & playing only Jazz had a deep meaning for this master of corn: stopping to be a slave crying & becoming the MASTER of several generations of musicians, black, white, & other.
In parallel, a certain Hendrix created something like the Bluesfusion.
We already know or we learn that Davis is probably the greatest figure of all the possibilities of Jazz in 20th century (From swing & bebop until fusion, without forgetting the jazzrock era), even if Ornette Coleman & John Coltrane, after Amstrong, Monk, Mingus, Parker, Gillepsie, Elligton, Clayton have given some directions very different to this music.
The influence of Davis on his fellow colored citizens has been terrible: currently, less & less black people are able to play the delta blues. Less & less black people are giving new indications for Blues.
The Blues, this emotive music between all, this great bridge built between Africa & Occident, out of all the historic shit, this universal deep worry of humanity, must now listen to all a debauchery of jazzfioritures & formated rock & hardrock, these shits for partisans of business.
Blues, Rock, Jazz, when they are good music, are good music.
There's a time for politic.
& a time for music.
Sounds like mr Davis has been surpassed by his own message, & has stigmatized for lot of generations the blues.
The delta blues isn't shit. It's roots. Roots in the manure of history, but roots.
Zen.

death cube k...how's the sound quality?
cheese101...ah...a JS700..very nice...the 2 Chromeboy's...2 different animals...1 solid heavy luthite + 1 lightweight basswood...both great. Mr. Sam Ash Jr. was there when I opened the JS2 PRM out of the box, & told me I should hang the JS2 PRM on my wall...I told him it would be a sin not to play it...so play it I will! Today they both get set up by my Luthier...should be heavenly...peace out......
Joe Satriani...how are you Sir, any words on your latest efforts?

Suzie - Soundcontrol say that they don't know when it's goin to start - although probably lunch tim/early afternoon - and that it's going to be a first-come-first-served idea, costing £2 on the door. That's all I know I'm, afraid. My and my buddies are going to see DT on the 24th. Guess we can't hook up then... :( You going to see Vai in two weeks?
Clarky - To be honest, I wasn't too keen on the idea until you stuck my two favourite things at the end of your post; jam session and a beer!!!! Well, that and a bloody good shag, but fuck am I glad you aren't offering that!!!!!! No offense dude, but you know... lmao. Nah, seriously that sounds awesome. It's been a while!!!

GOOD MORNING HERE IS A JOKE FOR YOU ALL>>>>>>>>>>>
PENSION PLAN
A retired gentleman named Al went to the CPP office to apply
for His pension. After waiting in line a long time he got to the counter.
The woman behind the counter asked him for his driver's license to verify
his age.
He looked in his pockets and realized he had left his wallet at home. He
told the woman that he was very sorry, but he seemed to have left his wallet
at home. "I will have to go home and comeback later." The woman says,
"Unbutton your shirt." So he opens his shirt revealing lots of curly silver
hair. She says, "That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me,"
and she processed his CPP application.
When he gets home, the man excitedly tells his wife about his experience at
the CPP office.
She said, "You should have dropped your pants, you might have gotten
disability too."

PONDERISMS
*I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most
people die of natural causes.
*Gardening Rule: When weeding, the best way to make sure you are
removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it
comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.
*The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy
a replacement.
*Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
*There are two kinds of pedestrians: the quick and the dead.
*Life is sexually transmitted.
*The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth.
*Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but
you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the
stairs.
*Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals
dying of nothing.
*Have you noticed since everyone has a camcorder these days no one
talks about seeing UFOs like they used to?
*Whenever I feel blue, I start breathing again.
*All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no
attention to criticism.
*In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the
world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.
*How is it one careless match can start a forest fire, but it
takes a whole box to start a campfire?
* Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "I think I'll
squeeze these dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out?"
*Why is there a light in the fridge and not in the freezer?
*If Jimmy cracks corn and no one cares, why is there a song about
him?
*Why does Goofy stand erect while Pluto remains on all fours?
They're both dogs!
*If Wile E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that Acme stuff, why
didn't he just buy dinner?
*If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from
vegetables, then what is baby oil made from?
*If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from
morons?
*Why do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the
same tune?
*Do illiterate people get the full effect of Alphabet Soup?
*Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets
mad at you, but when you take him on a car ride, he sticks his head
out the window?
*Does pushing the elevator button more than once make it arrive
faster?
*Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle?

Hi Joe,
Just picked up the 03 G3 DVD, superb! Can't wait
for the new one. I have the original also. How come
you didn't put out the one with Fripp?
How about Buckethead for the next G3? now that
would be something!

Just went to see a concert tonight nr. Covent Garden of classical guitarist Carlos Bonell- it was fantastic! It was in a lovely church with great acoustics, great orchestra too. :)
Mari- Don't worry! Glad you are feeling better!
Master Yoda- Thanks for the info. Will have to look out for that Petrucci event! The 25/10 DT gig's 2nd half is apparently going to be one whole classic album- not sure exactly which though, will have to check the DT site! I should have got tickets for both Hammersmith gigs! Yep, on 19th (Vai gig) hopefully we will all be able to meet up for a beer, Simon (962) is going too and I think able to meet up - Mari will also of course be there (but much earlier in the day than us- I can't take the day off sadly!)
Bahduh- thankyou- hope you are safe and well :)

death cube k ...I always wondered what type of fidelity they had...will they power full size studio headphones with deep bass response? They seem like very powerful technology!
mikesb... that would be the correct interpretation ...oooo ....ahhh... it's been nine years since someone new...this is very strong medicine....imagine those 1st few moments of existence...there's nothing stronger on this planet... than...
cheese101...I was wondering where the safest place would be.... I do have a Crocidile Hunter searching for an "Electric Rainbow' which would really add a jewel to the crown....my fingers are very sore now, after switching between both... comparing their nuances......if you can get one...one that's not mint maybe...get it...they play like Joe would have them... then find a talented Luthier, and use Joe's spec's for The Chromeboy in the Vault/Archieve section of Gary Brawer's setup....whew...nothing stopping me but myself now....liberating...yet exhilaratingly daughnting...!!
sugarbaby6928...nice to see the racer in you....too....lol...that's a god one! What does the 6928 portion of yer handle actually mean?
Kronenbourg 1664....for everyone....cheers to hopefuly a great weekend.
