Deskpilot Posted July 4, 2011 Author Posted July 4, 2011 Hmm, pretty fast Tomo but not as fast as this I think. http://www.wimp.com/fastgirl/ ...................... and she's prettier. Watch snaps of the audience to see it's not faked.
Deskpilot Posted July 4, 2011 Author Posted July 4, 2011 Care to time them all Tomo? Here's another version. http://www.wimp.com/bestaccordian/ 1
Bryon Posted July 4, 2011 Posted July 4, 2011 I have to add my two penneth worth. Check out the foot speed on Virgil Donati 1
winsor68 Posted July 4, 2011 Posted July 4, 2011 Get a load of this... I used to play violin with this guy in Youth Orchestra's... Graeme Jennings. I don't get it... but apparently its like... cutting edge or something... the only thing I think is on edge is me when I listen to it. This apparently is like modern Tschaikovsky or something... apparently he is pretty good... Apparently... I better edit that because I had better give my old friend credit... he really is like this international devil's instrument playing man of mystery.... http://www.griffith.edu.au/music/queensland-conservatorium/staff/graeme-jennings

farri Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 The first time I heard this ( ) was at a live performance in Cairns and I couldn`t believe what I was hearing.Frank.
Dieselten Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 Speed-picking or speed-playing (on pretty much any instrument) is very impressive and I greatly admire those who have put the time into perfecting that aspect of playing. However, on my instrument of choice (pedal-steel guitar), tone and touch are most highly prized to bring out the emotion of the music and help the listener connect with it. One of the highest tasks of the musician is to the conduit between the music and the listener. I call it being a "good and true servant of the music". I have no intention of taking anything away from the super-fast pickers, but I'll take "touch and tone" over sheer speed any day. When your playing can bring genuine tears of appreciation to your audience's eye(s), then you're starting to become one with your instrument. I still enjoy speed-picking though, especially from a "tight" Bluegrass band.
Deskpilot Posted July 6, 2011 Author Posted July 6, 2011 The first time I heard this ( Brilliant, simply brilliant. TE is a master no doubt. Can't say the same for his daughter appearing on Australia's Got Talent though.
Tomo Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 That's classic Ozzie! Has inspired me to get out the old "Putt Putt" rail car and see if I can do something similar! 1
.Evan. Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Finally! A solution for all of those travelling pilot/trombone players worried about getting to that next gig without going over MTOW... The plastic trombone!!!

Deskpilot Posted August 9, 2011 Author Posted August 9, 2011 Best with earphones. Brilliant muso and instrument. Enjoy http://www.wimp.com/stringguitar/
Guest ozzie Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 Watched the 'aviators band' at Airventure. just a bunch of pilots that get together once a year. Really good show they put on. i enjoyed their version of 'The Devil came to Georgia'. After conducting a survey they found that 46% of pilots play a musical instrument.
Dieselten Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 Some very interesting links to music popping up on this thread so I thought I'd add one of my own favourites. For an example of the "Master of Touch and Tone", the late and great Mr JohnHughey on pedal-steel, plug in your headphones and follow this link:- Some very fine picking from one of the legends, now sadly gone.
Deskpilot Posted August 25, 2011 Author Posted August 25, 2011 Try this. Best with head phones I think. Just turn it up, sit back and enjoy the human voice(s) http://www.wimp.com/medleymix/ 1
