She isnt wrong…very Orwellian

Interesting stuff. This has been on my watch list for the last few days after it popped up, but just not got around to watching it till now. Knew quite a bit about the album cover and its background story, but not about the detail as to the photo origins etc, that was interesting. The filmed sequences of the (very) clean dip pen, ink and (brand new) nibs did make me smile.

Music transcribed and arranged from notes written on the rear end of a character in Hieronymus Bosch’s “The Garden of Earthly Delights”

The greatest ever music video. IMO

Aparently it was recorded in one take, with the music broadcast at half speed during the shoot.

It’s in my favourites, I don’t tire of watching this.

The more you watch the more you learn how it was made and the mistakes that are in there.

I don’t think you can buy one. Which might be a good thing, they don’t seem very safe to me. :blush:

Ah - barrier free. That could be a problem. We have things like walls and furniture and stuff.

Insanely great, as Steve Jobs used to say. A rather different arrangement for Ed Sullivan’s show:

Many years ago at a Hifi show I attended somewhere in the UK, the chaps from Naim must have got fed up with the usual plinky plonky jazz cr@p and actually played the studio version of Sweet Child in Time on a 500 system into the Focal Grand F’uglies. Loudly! And yep, that moved some air in the room!

Roy Buchanan - it’s all about pickup selection and the little finger controlling the volume.

To think Roy was in line to replace Brian Jones in the Rolling Stones.

@AndyP - Thank you for this one. Think I have seen it before, but no matter. Its from 1976.

I can hear a lot of both Beck & Hendrix in this. Or is it the other way around…?

I saw Mick Taylor down at the Astor Theatre in Sandwich a few years ago and it was all about pickup, tone and volume control.
