? Ain't Beethoven a nice example of guNa-vRtti-virodha, at least as Taimni (time-knee) interprets it (Wikip.): In about 1800 his hearing began to deteriorate, and by the last decade of his life he was almost totally deaf. He gave up conducting and performing in public but continued to compose; many of his most admired works come from this period.
Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: The greatest ever guitar riff
Nabby, Thank you. I am writing this note of thanks thru my tears. The beauty of Robert Johnson's voice brings his soul directly in contact with any good listener. I came to Johnson, and some of the other American Blues Greats as a boy in the streets of the Bronx. Funnily, it was a good choice, not only because the music resonated with me, but having little money, I was limited to buying a mono record player...a portable, at that. The needle was as scratchy as the recordings. There was no hope of hearing the psychodelic sounds of sterio. I later traveled West, to the Filmore for that. Thanks again, pure beauty, down to the soul.

Apparently Jimi Hendrix sought him out as a sideman. Johnny Winter and his brother Edgar were born and raised in Beaumont, Texas. In 2007 and 2010, Winter performed at Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festivals.

Johnson's shadowy, poorly documented life and death at age 27 have given rise to much legend, including the Faustian myth that he sold his soul at a crossroads to achieve success. The recording session was held on November 23, 1936 in room 414 of the Gunter Hotel in San Antonio, which Brunswick Records had set up to be a temporary recording studio. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Johnson Sometimes confused with Tommy Johnson (1896 – November 1, 1956), an influential American delta blues musician. In the movie O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000), a character named Tommy Johnson is played by Chris Thomas King. This character describes selling his soul to the devil to play guitar. The story of Tommy Johnson selling his soul to the devil was first told by Tommy Johnson's brother, LaDell Johnson, and reported by David Evans in his 1971 biography of Johnson. This legend was subsequently transferred to the blues musician Robert Johnson. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tommy_Johnson_%28musician%29 /Gunter Hotel, downtown San Antonio/

For some time I lived the life that the Cohn's had portrayed in The Serious Man. They helped me gain insight into mySelf. And the fact that it was George Clooney who applied all that pomade in O Brother! Where Art Thou? helped me a great deal with my grooming. I, in return inspired George with my groomed beard. He went that way. And talk about influences! Just this past week, I bought the Cliff's Notes of 'The Odyssey', on Broadway for $1.50 Thinks are getting up there.

It also clearly shows Ronnie Wood and Keith Richards to be begging on their knees for a clue to what this magician is doing, yet he does not seem eager to enlighten them, probably seeing them as younger brothers only. Youtube is not the source of any good take of this mastership in guitar-playing, if you know of any better source do post here. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, punditster@... wrote : Like. http://youtu.be/SGyOaCXr8Lw http://youtu.be/SGyOaCXr8Lw On 8/29/2014 12:56 PM, nablusoss1008 wrote: Best guitarist ib the Rolling Stones ?

Robert Johnson
[FairfieldLife] Re: The greatest ever guitar riff
Robert Johnson has stood on this Forum as The greatest ever guitar riff for an hour. That is longer than anything has ever stood unchallenged in ffl's history. I declare Robert Johnson as having played The Greatest Guitar Riff of All Times* Mr Johnson was Eric Clapton's Guru and immortalized in Down At The Crossroads where great guitar riffs were a trade for the man's mortal soul.
[FairfieldLife] Re: The greatest ever guitar riff
Just had a listen to Crossroads courtesy of The Cream and it's a serviceable blues song. But when we're talking riffs we want something that grabs you from the first notes and with an insistent pulse that won't let you go. Jukebox music really. Here's an example of what you've been missing (give yourself some room to start shaking that body) . . . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhMXyZ-hci8amp;list=FLJad8vN225Nr5hDIzlEOYMAamp;index=1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhMXyZ-hci8amp;list=FLJad8vN225Nr5hDIzlEOYMAamp;index=1 Now that's a riff! ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, no_re...@yahoogroups.com wrote : Robert Johnson has stood on this Forum as The greatest ever guitar riff for an hour.

You are firing on all eight cylinders tonight, Dan! Eric Clapton was ranked second in Rolling Stone magazine's list of the '100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time', and fourth in Gibson's 'Top 50 Guitarists of All Time'. http://www.rollingstone.com/music/lists/100-greatest-guitarists/ http://www.rollingstone.com/music/lists/100-greatest-guitarists-2023/eric-clapton-2022 Eric Johnson recorded only 29 songs in his whole life at the Gunter Hotel in downtown San Antonio. Johnson's shadowy, poorly documented life and death at age 27 have given rise to much legend, including the Faustian myth that he sold his soul at a crossroads to achieve success. The recording session was held on November 23, 1936 in room 414 of the Gunter Hotel in San Antonio, which Brunswick Records had set up to be a temporary recording studio.

Eh, what the heck is a guitar riff? I've been playing classical guitar for 38 years more or less. The greatest Western fretted instrumentalist was quite possibly Lutenist John Dowland. Playing his Forlorn Hope Fancy, is well, just a fancy of forlorn hope for most of us. L ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, s3raphita@... wrote : BBC Radio has just run a poll of a panel of music industry experts, music critics and record producers to select the best riff. It's the kind of lightweight, amusing contest that has obvious appeal: 1) we all regard ourselves as experts even if (like me) you've never picked up a guitar 2) You can indulge in some gratifying sneering at the lack of taste displayed by others' choices 3) You can tear your hair out at the priceless songs the unwashed masses have overlooked. My choices would for sure have included Peter Gunn – Duane Eddy (makes No 58); Don’t Fear The Reaper – Blue Oyster Cult (No 34); Day Tripper – The Beatles (No 28); Paranoid – Black Sabbath (No 26); and You Really Got Me – The Kinks (No 9). But if someone had challenged me to pick the greatest ever riff off the top of my head I would have gone for Whole Lotta Love – Led Zeppelin - and that is indeed the song chosen. Was it a shoo-in?
