Albert Lee. Crossroads 2007
Hvem sier country-rock ikke kan være kult?! 8)
(He grew up in Blackheath, London. His father was a musician, and Albert studied piano, taking up the instrument at age seven.[1] During this time, he became a fan of Buddy Holly and Jerry Lee Lewis. He took up guitar in 1958 when his parents bought him a second-hand Höfner President which he later traded in for a Czechoslovakian Grazioso, the forerunner of the Futurama. Albert left school at the age of 16 to play full-time.)

Robert Normann - Robert Uno Normann (født 27. juni 1916 i Sarpsborg, død 20. mai 1998) var norsk gitarist, og som regnes som en av jazzgitarens pionerer.
Normanns spillestil kan forlede noen til å tro at Django Reinhardt var inspirator, men etter eget utsagn lyttet han aldri til innspillingene med den franske gitaristen, men til amerikanske musikere som Teddy Wilson og Leon Chu Berry, samt diverse trekkspillere. Fra 1955 var han mindre aktiv i jazzsammenheng, blant annet pga betydelige alkoholproblemer.
(Normann var selvlært utøver på trekkspill og tenorsaksofon, men etter hvert med gitar som hovedinstrument. Han var en av swingepokens mest ettertraktede solister i Norge, og også en pioner på elektrisk gitar. Sin første el-gitar satte han istand allerede i 1939 ved å konstruere en pickup av koppertråd, magneter og bek, stjålet fra offentlige telefoner)

I tråder som denne klager folk ofte på shredders og teknisk dyktige gitarister som ikke spiller med nok følelse og "sjel". Vel, denne videoen fra Youtube har for meg stått som det beste eksempelet på å spille fra hjertet siden jeg så den med klump i halsen for rundt et år siden.
Denne fyren, Duey Moore, er helt ukjent (Eller var det i alle fall, før denne videoen), og spiller Pink Floyds (Vel, egentlig David Gilmour's) "On The Turning Away" til ære for søsteren sin som døde i en ulykke noen timer før.
NSFW, hvis du ikke synes det er OK at kollegene ser du sitter og griner på jobb.

Herlig å høre hvordan flamenco gitarister angriper
strengene - herlig snert, punch og attack man ikke finner hos klasisk skolerte gitarister.

Scott Henderson (born August 26, 1954) is a fusion and blues guitarist best known for his work with the band Tribal Tech.
Born in West Palm Beach, Florida, Henderson began playing guitar at an early age. His formative musical years were spent listening to rock, blues, funk and soul, while his interest in jazz developed later on, thanks to the music of John Coltrane, Miles Davis and others. He still professes to being a blues player at heart.
After graduating from Florida Atlantic University, Henderson moved to Los Angeles and began his career in earnest, playing and recording with violinist Jean-Luc Ponty, bassist Jeff Berlin and "Players", and Weather Report's Joe Zawinul. Henderson first began receiving serious attention as the original guitarist for the Chick Corea Elektric Band. But he stayed only six months with Corea and left after some major clash, with amongst other reasons, Chick's scientological beliefs.
Henderson formed Tribal Tech with bass player Gary Willis in 1984. Under the direction of Henderson and Willis, Tribal Tech became one of the most highly-regarded fusion bands of the 1990s. He toured and recorded with the band up until their dissolution following the 2000 album Rocket Science, and during that time brought himself to the forefront of modern jazz/fusion guitar playing. In 1991 he was named '#1 Jazz Guitarist' by Guitar World magazine, and in January 1992 he was voted best jazz guitarist in Guitar Player magazine's Annual Reader's Poll.

George Lynch (born September 28, 1954) is a hard rock/heavy metal guitarist best known as a member of the band Dokken, his own bands Lynch Mob and Souls of We.
En av 80tallets gitarhelter:
(Kjent for sin noe uvnlige jack-off-trademark-sliding-teknikk, hvilket gitarist Warren DeMartini (ratt) hevder han stjal ffra ham.
Husker jeg leste i guitar player en evighet siden - om hvor nervøs Hr.Lynch var
da han skulle i studio og spille for G.I.T (guitar institute of tech) i L.A` gitar guruer Paul Gilbert og Tony McAlpine på McAlpines solo skive. Kankje ikke så rart - også med tanke på at Lynch ikke leser noter om så livet sto på spill - imotsetning til nevnte McAlpine og Gilbert.)
Lynch was born in Spokane, Washington and raised in the small town of Auburn, California. Great White guitarist Mark Kendall claims George started two hand tapping before Eddie Van Halen did.[1] George Lynch Interview] Twice Lynch auditioned for the position of Ozzy Osbourne's lead guitarist, once in 1979 losing to Randy Rhoads and another time in 1982 to replace Brad Gillis. According to Lynch, he was hired for three days before Ozzy changed his mind and decided to go with Jake E. Lee. Lee, however claims that Lynch "got the gig, but only went on the road for two weeks to watch the show, and never actually played with Ozzy." Lynch looks back on the situation positively though; he has said "I won the consolation prize. Randy got to tour with Ozzy...and I got to teach at his mom's school." Lynch played in a late-'70's band called The Boyz, working the Sunset Strip clubs in L.A., along side some of their contemporaries like Van Halen and Quiet Riot. The Boyz were to play a showcase for Gene Simmons of Kiss and his startup label, Simmons Records. Van Halen opened the show and Gene opted not to stay and see The Boyz.

Her er mye å trekke på smilebåndet for! ;D
Itillegg demo av Lynch` jack off teknikk - Brad Gillis posing - Malmsteens uanstrengte
teknikk - enkelte mener medfører manglende rytmikk.
Who cares! Its all good! 8)

Du er tydeligvis confused Dazed!
Hammer-ons og pull-offs "AKA tapping" er da intet spesiellt -
selv ikke tapping from out of nowhere med 8 - fingre er spesiellt i disse dager.
Hvilket krediteres Eddie Van Halen forøvrig. Likevel B.S IMO.
Jack-off er en egen vibrato/sliding-teknikk!
Muligens mye gitar-onani på 80-tallet ja - likevel presterer Hr.Lynch en egen sound!
Hvilket han skal ha cred for!
Edit:
He does a funky vibrato that he calls his "jack off" vibrato, because it looks like he's jacking off the guitar. Ex. the note is an E on the g string (9th fret), move your hand in a fast slide between the 7 fret and the 11th fret to make the vibrato.
Så til en av storhetene:
Riley B. King, mest kjent som B.B. King, (født 16. september 1925 i Itta Bena, Mississippi, USA) er en amerikansk bluesmusiker, gitarist,låtskriver og plateprodusent. Ifølge popmagasinet Rolling Stone er han den største nålevende gitarist og den tredje største noensinne - etter Jimi Hendrix og Duane Allman. Han har fått en stjerne på Hollywood Walk of Fame, og han ble i 1987 innvotert i Rockens æresgalleri..
I 1949 begynte King å spille inn musikk da han fikk platekontrakt med det Los Angeles-baserte plateselskapet RPM Records. Mange av Kings tidlige innspillinger var produsert av Sam Phillips, som senere grunnla Sun Records. Han ble kalt «Beale Street Blues Boy», som senere ble forkortet til B.B.
B.B. King has such a unique playing style that he inspired many guitarists like Eric Claption, Keith Richards, George Harrison and Jeff Beck. B.B. King uses lefthand vibrato and has beautiful string bends. This didn't happen over night. This took a lot of practice and hard work. B.B. King started this process at the age of 14. He was always dedicated to playing on his beloved guitar Lucille. He never gave up.

Richard Hugh "Ritchie" Blackmore (born 14 April 1945) is an English rock guitarist who is an American resident, known for his work in Deep Purple. During his career Blackmore fronted his own band, Rainbow. In the late 1990s he retired from hard rock for good, to start concentrating on the Renaissance-themed folk rock project Blackmore's Night, which featured his partner Candice Night on vocals.
He joined minor local bands from 1960 or 1961.[2] His playing improved and in 1963 he started out as a session player for Joe Meek's music productions and performed in several bands. He was a member of the instrumental combo, The Outlaws, and backed Heinz (playing on his top ten hit "Just Like Eddie"), Screaming Lord Sutch, Glenda Collins and Neil Christian among others. While working for Joe Meek, he got to know engineer Derek Lawrence, who would later produce Deep Purple's first three albums.
Yngwie Johann Malmsteen (English pronunciation: /???ve? ?m??lmsti?n/ ING-vay MAHLM-steen; born June 30, 1963) is a Swedish guitarist, composer, multi-instrumentalist and bandleader. Malmsteen became known for his neo-classical playing approach in heavy metal music which became a new musical style in the early 1980s. He is considered by many to be one of the most technically gifted rock guitarists of all time and is considered to be a pioneer of shred guitar
Malmsteen was born Lars Johan Yngve Lannerbäck in Stockholm, Sweden, as the third child of a musically-inclined family.[6] At age seven, he saw a television news report on the death of Jimi Hendrix, an event which had a profound impact on his musical path. To quote his official website, "The day Jimi Hendrix died, the guitar-playing Yngwie was born.".[7] At the age of 10 he took his mother's maiden name Malmsten as his surname, slightly changed it to Malmsteen, and Anglicised his given name Yngve to "Yngwie". Yngwie also created his first band "Track On Earth" at the age of 10, consisting of himself and a friend from school on drums (Armin). Malmsteen was a teenager when he first encountered the music of the 19th century violin virtuoso Niccolò Paganini, whom he cites as his biggest classical music influence. Ritchie Blackmore and Uli Jon Roth are also cited as being significant influences. He played featuring Denim And Leather song with Saxon during The Eagle Has Landed part II tour.
Jason Eli Becker
(born July 22, 1969) is an American neo-classical metal guitarist and composer. At the age of 16, he became part of the Mike Varney-produced duo Cacophony with his friend Marty Friedman. They released Speed Metal Symphony in 1987 and Go Off! in 1988. Cacophony broke up in 1989 and Becker began doing solo work, having released his first album Perpetual Burn in 1988. He later joined David Lee Roth's band and recorded one album with him. However, Becker's success was hampered by his then-diagnosed amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Lou Gehrig's Disease) and was given three to five years to live. In 1996, Becker eventually lost the ability to speak and now communicates with his eyes via a system developed by his father. Despite his disability, he continues composing by using a computer and has since released Collection, a "best of" album of his favourite songs and 3 new songs
He joined minor local bands from 1960 or 1961.[2] His playing improved and in 1963 he started out as a session player for Joe Meek's music productions and performed in several bands.

To quote his official website, "The day Jimi Hendrix died, the guitar-playing Yngwie was born.".[7] At the age of 10 he took his mother's maiden name Malmsten as his surname, slightly changed it to Malmsteen, and Anglicised his given name Yngve to "Yngwie". Yngwie also created his first band "Track On Earth" at the age of 10, consisting of himself and a friend from school on drums (Armin). Malmsteen was a teenager when he first encountered the music of the 19th century violin virtuoso Niccolò Paganini, whom he cites as his biggest classical music influence. Ritchie Blackmore and Uli Jon Roth are also cited as being significant influences. He played featuring Denim And Leather song with Saxon during The Eagle Has Landed part II tour.
Jason Eli Becker
(born July 22, 1969) is an American neo-classical metal guitarist and composer. At the age of 16, he became part of the Mike Varney-produced duo Cacophony with his friend Marty Friedman. They released Speed Metal Symphony in 1987 and Go Off! in 1988. Cacophony broke up in 1989 and Becker began doing solo work, having released his first album Perpetual Burn in 1988. He later joined David Lee Roth's band and recorded one album with him. However, Becker's success was hampered by his then-diagnosed amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Lou Gehrig's Disease) and was given three to five years to live. In 1996, Becker eventually lost the ability to speak and now communicates with his eyes via a system developed by his father. Despite his disability, he continues composing by using a computer and has since released Collection, a "best of" album of his favourite songs and 3 new songs
