Not Pink Floyd's most complex song but nonetheless this is a very impressive cover. Note that the guy in the vid plays every instrument in the song and does the vocals too.
How I wish David Gilmour and Roger Waters would get back together and write more music...
Listened to this track the other night and it reminded me of what a brilliant guitarist Jeff Beck is. He can squeeze sounds out of his strat that are amazing..his vibrato via use of the whammy bar is the best in the business imho.
The Dear Leader of North Korea died on Saturday and his people are in a major state of mourning. After watching the video below it was hard for me to conjure up a comparable event that would make people so upset. Perhaps if Justin Bieber were to fall from a helicopter and hit the stage in front of a concert packed with his teenage girl fans? Nahhh...
In reality this is what happens when the leader of a country controls people to the extent where they recognize him as a god. The behavior is also the result of the older people remembering what happened when Kim-Jong Il's father died in 1994. After his death the people who did not display the "proper amount" of mourning were subsequently given something to really cry about by the military police
Watched a bunch of this girls vids.. she is something else. Guess this is what happens when you start playing guitar at the age of three (17 now I think). There are vids on YouTube of her jamming live with a bunch of bands.. from Sammy Hagar, Boston, Dickie Betts..etc.
I saw a post on another site awhile back where a person fairly new to guitar playing asked where he could find tabs for some Satriani songs that were "easy" to play. The first response was that they could be found right next to the "easy" Paul Gilbert and Yngwie Malmsteen songs The guy who wrote that response went on the explain that Satch pours so much tonal emotion into his easier sounding songs that in the end they are far from easy.. and in fact it was often more difficult to nail the sound on the easier sounding songs than other songs that sound/appear more difficult.
That brought the song "Ten Words" to mind. I stumbled across this guy from Japan who posts covers of many of Satches songs. Many of his vids are amazing.
