Robert Johnson - Love In Vain Blues (Takes 1&2) (1937) #iloveguitars I wrap up the column dedicated to guitars and their stories with a jump to the origins. This should be a Stella; they are old guitar models with a very small body, which were a cross between a classical guitar and an acoustic one. Once, I strummed one in a shop in Florence... and it didn't sound like that with me. Unfortunately, there's only a photo. Let’s settle for the sound. Blessed be the guitar and those who use it.
 
Stevie Wonder - For Once In My Life [Ed Sullivan Show - 1968]

#edsullivanshow

From 1948 to 1971, every Sunday night Ed Sullivan hosted the greatest and most famous artists on his show, aired on CBS.
About ten years ago, reissued in 12 DVDs, an Italian newspaper published the best performances. I'm sharing them with you again; there are truly wonderful things.
 
06 - Lay in the Sun (Side B of 1966: The Godz - Contact High with the Godz)
Wacky and musically spastic, epigones of the Fugs. Coordinates: New York, 1966. Stamped as "the worst band in history".

May Blitz - Dreaming [May Blitz]
Another big group (less bullshit...)
 
Dream of the Return

Music by Pat Metheny, lyrics by Pedro Aznar

I sent a poem to the sea
so it would carry my questions and my voice
Like a little boat, it vanished in the foam
I asked it not to change course
without having seen the open sea
and in dreams to tell me its visions
And if it never returned
I would have known if it had arrived
To travel my whole life
to sail on calm surfaces or sink in the storm
it matters little how, if no port awaited it
I waited so long for the message
that I had forgotten to return to the sea
and so I thought I had lost that poem
And I shouted all my anger to the skies
In the end, I found it, but it was written in the sand
like a prayer
The sea struck me in my veins
and freed my heart
 
Reverend Horton Heat - Bath Water Blues

Lorella Cuccarini - La notte vola

everything today that I whistle, come ON ALL TOGHETER
 
Allan Holdsworth Band feat. Jimmy Haslip & Gary Husband - Jarasum Jazz Festival #iloveguitars the Steinbergers. Around '79, designer Ned Steinberger, together with luthier Spector, create this innovative headless guitar model. They experiment a lot with the materials of the guitar bodies, which are produced using particular mixtures of chemical resins. (secret recipe) They are especially appreciated in fusion and jazz. I don't like the cut-off guitar.
 
The Wheel I still remember when I discovered that it talks about someone who was dumped: I thought it was about random things, definitely not about someone who was dumped. Almost better than Bella Stronza by Masini, but not better than Ritornerai by Lauzi.
 
Il nuovo spot del governo per promuovere il vaccino e la terza dose GIORGIA MELONI NON FA VACCINARE SUA FIGLIA Oh my goodness... I'm torn... am I really getting the third vaccine to support immigration?!

Viagra Boys - Toad (From Shrimp Sessions 2)

Sure, I know, the Maniskalk revolutionaries have a whole different edge and artistic depth, but come on, even these modest musicians from Scandinavia turn out to be moderately cool.
 
The Style Council - Walls Come Tumbling Down!

One of my favorite songs amidst the crap of that decade at the mainstream level.
Style and class to spare.
 
The War of the Ants - Humpty Dumpty & La Guerra delle Formiche - Blowing
On this track, I also recorded the bass... it’s Carlo's last album, the one playing with me... he collaborated with Humpty Dumpty, a crazy guy from Calabria... now I’m doing new stuff with Carlo... 💣
The name The War of the Ants is an expression from Northern Europe that signifies the black and white dots on a broken TV screen. 😆
 
Guru Guru - Girl Call
Banging against a wall of acid 🐍
 
The Breaks

@[AlephZero]: another historic piece.
 
@[Mojoman]
What do you think of this self-built guitar?
