Toyota has come up with this musical playing robot that has many taking another look at what can be considered musicianship.
What is going on in this crazy world? Ok, I know it’s all in fun but doesn’t it make ya wonder what’s next? I’d love to see them make one that can play eruption by Eddie Van Halen! Enjoy!
Keep on Jammin’, or at least let’s see them try to!
Another one of the greatest, most influential and under rated guitar players of all time is dead at the age of 79.
He was one of those players who everyone has heard of, but never really heard him actually play or realize that your favorite band was playing a tune made by the great one!
I know that I am part of that club and it is so sad that something like this has to happen to make us all wake up and realize the brilliance that, that person had. But isn’t that always the case.
He did catch the ear of everyone from the Rolling Stones all throughout the years to U2, thank heavens someone was paying attention to one of the god fathers of rock guitar!
From his unique approach to guitar (it’s interesting to note what he had to do to enhance his playing technique) all the way down to his own home made cigar box guitar, you can’t help but be amazed at how he started to play and the single handed determination that drove the great one to Rock and Roll immortality!
From his early days to todays music scene, the guy has driven through virgin snow for all of us to follow in his foot prints.
He really wanted to be a drummer? Well thank God for the rest of us that he choose the guitar! Honestly, that’s what he says in the begging of this one so listen carefully! It’s one of those things that make you go huummm, in the middle of the night! He also talks about how he got his name, I just about fell off my chair laughing at it, just ask my wife and dog Midnight.
May you get into heaven an hour before the devil knows your dead Mr Bo Diddley!
Keep on Jammin’ where ever you are Sir!
After the unfortunate lost of one of Rock’s nicest guys, Boston is on the verge of a great come back story that can’t help but make you feel happy for the band.
There is a God and he/she, along with Brad Delp, is finally looking down upon Boston and smiling I’m sure. How they got there is the thing of dreams though.
To make a very long story short, Boston found their new singer on the internet. Tommy DeCarlo of Charlotte, N.C., grew up, like the rest of us, idolizing the 80’s arena rockers Boston. Even after getting married and having kids, his love for the band still had that fire in his heart and his voice. A while ago, his daughter Talia, 19 set up a Myspace page and put up on it the thing that her father loved doing, singing Boston tunes.
He had a Karaoke set and started singing and she recorded it and put it up on his page. Now this is where the dream come true thing happens, David Sholtz saw the page didn’t quite believe it. So to settle his curiosity, he put Tommy’s singing video through some big speakers and came to the conclusion that this guy was the real thing! Here’s one for the little guys out there in the world!
Keep on Jammin’/Smokin’
