My daughter and I were listening to a bunch of varying music on this pretty afternoon while out and about. Some Beatles thrown in, too, as we are both fans.

I was reminded of this video I came across a few months ago. I have just about zero musical ability, but I enjoy music hugely, and I also enjoy watching about music talk. I find this video fun and interesting.

Since it’s the 40 year anniversary of Terry Kath’s death, I’ve been going back and playing a lot of early Chicago recently.

Damn, he was good, he really was the engine for that band, and they never were the same after his passing. IMHO every bit as good as SRV, if he wanted to pursue a solo career, in terms of guitar playing and singing.

Similar sentiment here on one of the YT links I just posted:

A perfect example of a pocket player, unable to do much, simple and yet one of the greatest drummers that ever lived. A lesson that can be applied anywhere

No guitar thread is complete without Tommy Emmanuel. Watch and listen to any of his videos and be amazed. Here are a random few:

If Mick Jagger had a sex change, he might look like Yoko Ono.

"But to un-hijack, and get back to the Beatles, is the opening of “Revolution” the most rock ‘n roll thing ever?"

Not bad...Distortion and all ;)

I think the opening of "Helter Skelter" tops it.

Call me the breeze and throw in a little Fleetwood Mac or Buckingham Nicks and I’ll be happy.

That’s not singing - that’s destructive mic testing.

Been listening to a lot of Sergey Kashirin in the Chicago cover band Leonid and Friends. I just bought their cd Chicagovich.

Tommy is a sickie virtuoso. Another guy that made me give up the guitar for good.

His collaboration with Vlatko Stefanovski & Stochelo Rosenberg are fantastic too. Vlatko is a beast.

If it wasn’t so close to my bedtime, I would flog myself for omitting Peter Green who, along with Mike Bloomfield, are about my absolute favorites.

... first focus on the guitar techniques of Hendrix.

1969 Jimi Hendrix John McLaughlin jam (best quality).mp4

Oh, and yeah, Buddy Miles on the drums, but all in the studio not a public performance

WHAT?!?!??? No, no, no, no, no, NO! Never ever say you've given up the guitar for good! How can that possibly be "good"?!?

Give it up for an hour or two, or until tomorrow or maybe until the next day or or or or however long it takes, but never for good.

But yeah, Tommy is one of the most amazing guitar players that most have never heard or heard of.

And yeah, I almost want to stick my left hand down the garbage disposal sometimes after watching one of his videos, but other than that, he's very inspirational!

Thank you, I had to cut out at 26 minutes for a work meeting...he did it with I Feel Fine, another dominant chord riff.
