       And where is that bone smuggler now? Bald, pot-bellied and wandering the beaches of San Juan with a metal detector and a trash bag full of redeemable cans.

       As for my contribution this week, let the sunshine in, baby!

            Heh heh...Hoorah! Glad to see there are others here who remember the Golden Days of Shred. It's always funny to watch Vai in these early videos. You'd think a guitar god who was also tall and good-looking would be cocky as hell, but I really think he was very awkward and bashful and sort of didn't know what to do with himself in front of a camera. It's also amusing because he was so good a player he could do what other guitarists were still struggling to be able to play while making funny faces and looking in the other direction. ;-)
            How about a little Paul Gilbert. Talk about a god of the guitar. This guys never ceases to boggle my mind, with his never-ending mastery of new areas, and that big kid personality of his. ;-0

   To all the very impressive young folks here, a little insight on an old farts journey into his passion for music... There will not be a test at the end, relax... We had no MTV, VH1, Youtube, cable TV, in fact we only had 3 tv channels and celebrated when FOX came on the scene with "movies till dawn", ending the dead air test pattern we always had before... which would be welcomed with the infomercials on now overnight.... Here is where we were actually able to SEE who was singing our favorite stuff....  Please... enjoy

    That was awesome. Thanks, Gravity. Yeah, she does, and so do they. I know they were broke as hell for a while, no royalties from the early days. Debbie looks like she's freezing her balls off in this video.

           There's something in the drinking water over there.  So much great music out of Sweden. Thanks for turning me on to this group. That chick is hot, I hasten to add. Now here's a Swedish group I truly love with one of their great tunes:

        I was there, at Culloden. Walked on lots of dead Clansmen. Alas, Bonnie Prince Charlie didnae have more up his kilt.

        This is so cool that you got to see them then, in the very beginning in a small bar. Nancy Wilson was one of the first female lead guitarists, an accomplished player, who really stood out. Today there are millions of them.

            Very nice. Since we're doing long psychedelic pieces from that period, I give you what is arguably the mother of all, certainly the one that blew my mind wide open at a tender age:

Incredible, thank you! So many weekend nights on the Seattle Science Center's Laserium floor experiencing Pink Floyd visually... Time travel really needs to get here, dammit... just not the same purity of spirit today...

my first viewing of this was in 1977 somewhere in the s.f. bay area. as soon as the lights dimmed down, people lit up and started passing herb. very good herb cuz when it was all over everyone realized the film had been run twice... back to back.

       What is so affirming about your remarks and those of Hautex is that indeed every one of us who was there when this shit went down remembers where they were the first time they saw and heard it; it's a universal experience that ties our generation together. Somehow I don't think, thirty or forty years from now, the kids who are into One Direction will be able to say the same. 

       For me, I'd been turned onto Yes in 7th grade by a friend, and become an instant, full-bore fanatic. This was in '77. Yessongs was playing at a local theater in a double bill with the Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii movie, so we snuck in and sat in the front row watching our gods, Yes, and being blown away. Then out of curiosity we stayed to watch the Floyd movie, not knowing anything about them. I only remember lying half prone in my seat, gazing up open-mouthed during Echoes, my consciousness transported, knowing my life would never be the same.

       And now, speaking of being transported, take a cosmic ride with And You & I...
