Mike Stern on Working with Miles Davis and Playing a Telecaster in Jazz

Isn't it beautiful?
The Telecaster, I mean.
The same one the Boss uses, aside from the humbucker, of course.
Mine is apparently identical to Michelino's, just in cream color.
He's quite a shy and reserved guy (like Pat Metheny, who doesn't show it) and can sometimes seem grumpy; in fact, he got pretty annoyed when I told him, at Umbria Jazz ninety-something (I don't remember), that I had one but preferred my beloved Lead II: he thought it was "cheesy."
But I was and still am a provincial guy, who falls in love with girls who have the sea in their eyes, regardless of the cost.
Ah: forgive me if I always talk about guitars with strings: those with fur are thankfully out of fashion now.
Has the topic ever been discussed here, on the evolved DB?
I belong to the "without," if it's understood? Sgnátz!

Ps. Here he doesn’t play it, but you can hear how much he loves it whenever you want. With Miles and without.

Ingrandisci questa immagine
I swear, it's not to add gossip to other (useless) gossip, but it's due to my uncontrollable perplexity: I mean, the Nazi-fascists, the squadristi, and their thugs are not how I remembered them! Maybe it’s because I was a young lad, maybe because we ate healthier and spent more time outdoors without phones and similar distractions... but those guys were tough when it came to fighting...
Instead, look at this one, all dressed up like that little twit from Salis (who's also a woman, which must be hard for someone like him to digest)!
Damn: there are no longer the Nazi-fascists of the past!
 
Walter Chiari Monologo in dialetto Today, a monologue like this on TV, no matter the channel, would be impossible. And it would be incomprehensible to the vast majority of society.

Jenneifer Warnes, what a performer.
 
Mega City Four ‎– Tranzophobia (FULL ALBUM 1989)
In my youth, I quite enjoyed it
Energy and melody. A beautiful blend that, in my ignorance, I would call "Power Pop."
 
Doot Doot
a record that exerts a magnetic attraction on me, even though it is far from my otherwise broad tastes.
 
Jukon Speakers – Glendora (1987, Sweden) Full Single

You can play garage, hard rock, psychedelia, cowpunk, a bit of electronic stuff, a bit of gypsy... and blend these noble sounds together and do it well?! Yes... really enjoyable...

Another EP
The opening track Glendora is a very particular piece that straddles folk-gipsy ballad and alternative country... then after a minute of delirium, around 4:45 We are Jukon People kicks in, a ride that "pays homage" to "When The Music’s Over"...

There isn’t much on YouTube; for instance, another great track is Give me Love as well as Quite Rain and many others...

Unknown, Swedish… I discovered they've been playing since the early 80s… this is their first EP…

Don Giovanni

If you don't love - or understand - Jazz and, despite adoring the great composer from Poggio Bustone, you haven't yet (oh dear) listened to this masterpiece of 20th century Italian Music, you deserve the festival of crap. With headphones glued to your ears with super glue. On loop. A week per episode. Day & night.

Now I've put this piece on, but there’s a ton of material here; for refined palates and not, for those who love singing and those who prefer instrumental: an unsuspected Pino Mango in "Non è Francesca," for example, but also the immense Mia Martini, and a stellar Rossana Casale in a literally spine-chilling version of "Aver paura d'innamorarsi troppo."
All arranged and performed by the crème de la crème of Cisalpine Jazz.

Apologies if I propose a listen that - I won't even check - you old dogs have surely posted a fantastic number of times, and with comments certainly more eloquent than mine.
But there might always be some unsuspecting young person who would appreciate the tip.

Ah, the album is "Ci ritorni in mente," just so you know.
