I will not be drawn into your fantasy world

"James Smith" wrote: "Jenn" wrote : I like you as well, James. Now please tell us about your 30 years in the business. Damn. I made a promise to myself that I would not talk about my work. That is strictly off limits in a public forum like this (as is obvious to anybody with any public exposure) so I am a very naughty boy for letting that slip out. Now of course Jenn has launched a frenzied attack for further information. Well, I do not want to see my name dropped idly into conversation by a stick waving witch, who is living in fantasy world where she is some seminal figure in the music business, when really what she is known for is training people to wave twigs about, so I will not comply. (To preempt lies to the contrary, I am not "very good friends" with Jenn. We've never even met.) Gee Jim, it's so "unlike" you to lie. What "frenzied attack"? As of your post above, I've politely asked you about a statement which you made, what... twice? Jim, someone is going to start to believe that you lied about your experience if you bug out in retreat. |

"James Smith" wrote: "Jenn" wrote : 2. We're talking about art. The evaluations are subjective. We've shown that here. How can one say that there is a "best"? Easy. Simply complete a sentence of the form "The best is " I don't believe that there is a "best" in artistic matters. I've been quite clear on that point. Here is an example. The best guitarist in the world is Tommy Emmanuel. He is certainly one of the best. An amazing player. |

A Theory About Scott
In article ,
"James Smith" wrote: "Jenn" wrote : [My idol] worked on albums by all of the Beatles except Lennon. Can you imagine the studios hiring someone who they don't consider to be the best? Yes. Why would they? If you think studios only hire "the best" then you are clearly bonkers. A whole slew of factors conspire. For example (a minor example but one of many) nepotism is fairly common in the business. I'm sure that nepotism plays some small role. One of many factors isn't it. So you too "can imagine the studios hiring someone they don't consider to be the best". Funny, I thought you took the ridiculous position that that was impossible! But if you can't cut the book as well as someone else, few contractors are going to risk their livelihoods for those reasons. In Jenn's imaginary world, all music biz folk **** themselves immediately when presented with any risk and refuse to take any risk (for example to maximize creativity). Sure. Right. That's Hollywood, that is. Some credits ['of my idol Laurence Jubor']: lots of Disney (Pocahantas, etc.) LOL! Are you kidding me? Every professional guitarist in LA would love that credit. Bull****. The lie Jenn repeated here five times is that Jenn knows the motivations of ALL professional musicians residing in LA area and can speak on behalf of all said musicians. Horse****. Jenn waves a twig around for a living, she is on the periphery at most. And just because Jenn lusts after money or credits or some association with proper musicians, it does not follow that all pro guitarists in the LA area are all shallow individuals who will all turn any trick without any regard to their musical orientation, beliefs, and motivations. Your lack of knowledge on the topic is stunning, but not surprising. Yet more of that arrogance and egotism. OK, I overstated when saying "every professional guitarist". Guys that play in bars on the occasional weekends and would therefore qualify as professionals might not care about being fulltime pros and therefore wouldn't value a Disney credit on their resume, for example. Neither would Slash or Van Halen or other famous rock players. The people I'm speaking of are people just making a living, live and recorded, paying into the pension fund, supporting their families, just folks in the neighborhood kind of people. So you admit you were completely wrong and lying when you said : "Every professional guitarist in LA would love [a disney cartoon] credit." I admitted that I overstated my case, yes. Rock star types wouldn't care, for example. And if you don't think that the people who get studio calls everyday are world-class players, you simply don't know what you're talking about. Right. Some of them are worlds best at painting by numbers! So, what is your alleged music business experience that you spoke of? |

No. Let's say that you say that, but you do not have the authority to do so. In fact, the most revered guitarists in rock music history just give up being regular session musicians once they have public recognition. Why would they compromise their art when they don't NEED to? Jubbles bucks that trend.

Probably little different than any other job search where who you know is often as important as what you know. But I do have an opinion on an aspect raised early in the discussion. Juber certainly shows he has all the chops to play great guitar. In session gigs he executes what someone else creatively directs. His execution may be as flawless as anyone, I don't really know. But when left relying on his own creativeness in the bits Jenn has provided, he gets a bit embroiled in demonstrating technical prowess which doesn't lend itself to creating that musical emotion that moves me. It's amazing guitar playing but it isn't amazing music to me. Stephen mentioned that the level of appreciation for his prowess increases with the level of musical training. *I have no doubt thats true. Musicians playing for other musicians seem to be into this "look what I can do" playing. But technical prowess doesn't automatically equal music that touches people emotionally. *I don't know who said it...but I read/heard that it's often the note not played that moves us most. *I agree completely. Marc mentioned he like GYBE. *Their music is not technically complicated at all for the individual musicians. It's this layered minimalism that starts slowly and simply but is built up into an intricate pattern that can be deeply moving to some or just dark and depressing to others. But I don't hear any serious chops in any of the individual players and if they did show it...it would be out of place and detrimental to the music. Anyway, I don't care if Jenn wants to be a fawning sycophant or not. It's her priviledge to know these people and while the occasional name- dropping may be as much about her and who she knows rather than the people she knows, *it's not as totally RAO centric as most of the BS going on here. ScottW I quite agree with you that the simplest, most heartfelt music is usually the most effective. *One of my favorite guitar performances of all time is the Ed Gerhard arrangement of The Water is Wide that I posted. *I listen to it, and I play it quite often. A beautiful piece. Perfect for ending the night and turning out the lights  .*LJ, for example, plays quite often in that way. *Did you listen to his arrangement of In My Life that I took the time to post? I did and I listened to a few more on you tube. One was in his home studio and I'd suggest my primary complaint isn't his playing but the guitar/pickup/recording. Gerhardt appears to be pure accoustic with a close mic. That was a video of a radio show. His normal concert set-up is three pickups: one under saddle, one under soundboard, and one little mic inside the instrument. Is this Jubar in his home? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zi7gDs2GpJA Nope. |

Friday night I played a political gathering (a "meet and greet"), for example. An hour's worth of playing; good practice and a little money. i guess that means that you can't critically compare two greats, say Clapton vs Beck. I can compare their playing, but I wouldn't rank them. |

Others critique is the price anyone who plays professionally is subject. It goes with the territory. I've always wondered why the opinions of critics are so valued by the pros or the masses. The other piece is the personal relationship part. It's an investment to protect and I don't really blame her for it. It's too bad, but discussing friends and personal relationships on usenet is probably not the greatest idea. Some people will turn around and start talking crap about your wife etc. I can see that point. So, she should just not say anything. Spare us her sugarcoating So Art's point is valid, there is a big caveat of probable bias around your comments re your friends work. Owning up to that is what you should do as denial is not a viable option. I'm sure no one wants you to stop bringing up your experiences, acquaintances etc. It diversifies the conversation and few others are bringing up new things. :She should just stop telling us how great they are. Why? It's her opinion, you've pointed out the bias of it but it's still her opinion and she has a right to it. :She kept :doing that about Juber, and when she gave us some you tube links :some months back, each of the performnces were flawed to :a very noticable degree (remember his dreadful Layla?). then, :a few days ago she gave us a few more flawed performances. :One thing about Juber I can say, he sure knows how to BANG  ut a tune!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I wonder if that's a function of the recording as much as his playing. Hard to tell. Anyway, Jubar is definitely skilled if your (or my) favorite. Peter Sprague plays in Quail Gardens often. Beautiful outdoor intimate setting. We go when we can. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6NXHZScgX8 ScottW Nice jazzy player. |

Oh, I'll analyze if you would like me to. Analyze the performances on those youtube links from a few days ago. Yes Sir. *Later today. Thank you Ma'am. Doug Smith: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpsUUC4yKn8 "Renewal", an original tune of his. DADGAD tuning. Two weeks after this video, he won the National Fingerstyle Guitar Championship, so he was in great shape. Goodall Jumbo guitar, light strings. More or less ABA form. Nearly flawless playing. He hit a fret around 3:59. Beautiful feel to this tune; his "Greatest Hit". The bass line is not too interesting, otherwise a fine composition. Ed Gerhard: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdf4AEHxH0o "The Water is Wide", his arrangement. This is his "signature" tune. I can't find fault with either the arrangement or this performance. Beautifully felt, as always. Just the right amount of space and time, great dynamic control. Breedlove "Ed Gerhart Signature" guitar, jumbo thin body. Great bass, otherwise, not may favorite sound. This is a video of a radio show, "Woodsongs Radio Hour". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUQg5ln6W_U Ed again. Same radio show. This is an original tune, "Little Road". This is basically "Travis picking" which he doesn't do that often. The style shows his interest in "Americana" music, blues tinged. Nice bass line integration. Not my favorite tune of his; a bit too repetitive, IMO. Tony McManus: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfi4ZYETa84 The best Celtic style player I've ever heard. Amazing "rolls" by the right hand. "Authentic" performance...all the parts going: fiddle, bass, pipe drone. Can't fault it. Al Petteway: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQ5x_...eature=related (if you are watching the PBS National Parks series, you hear this several times) Original tune, DADGAD tuning. Amazing light tone. Very expressive in its simplicity. I would have preferred more time before the transition around 1:12. Andy McKee: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSnWhsmlGec Really nice playing. This style is not what his is best known for (he's a "tapper: see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ddn4M...ature=related). Nice tune, an original. Great sound; only studio sound of the bunch. I prefer more melody. One of the problems in contemporary fingerstyle guitar is that the melody is often lost in an attempt to get a lot of difference stuff going, overcoming the instrumment's inherent tendency toward monochromatism. Nice, enjoyable tune to listen to. Tommy Emmanuel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_zPXtaGTQs Great original tune, not in his signature style, which is far more aggressive and loud. Standard tuning, Matan guitar with LOTS of EQ. Tune was inspired by Lewis and Clark College in Portland, while he was there to do Mark Hanson's wonderful summer seminar, which I do almost every summer now. Just lovely. Getting that "open tuning" sound that he gets here in standard tuning is so hard. Flawless performance. Great compositional use of the N6 chord. Pete Huttlinger: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MOAzcuwtcU Simply amazing. Fun to listen, nearly impossible to play. He's a fantastic arranger. One of the best set of chops in the business, along with Tommy and LJ. Nearly flawless (just a couple of fret hits, but who cares?!) The little modulatory section near the middle is super creative, and helps keep the listener's interest by breaking up the repetition. Collings guitar, light strings. Laurence Juber: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHQci4YtYF8 "It's Only a Paper Moon", LJ's arrangement, after the Benny Goodman Big Band arrangement from the 1930s. Standard tuning, GHS LJ Signature "True Medium" strings, Martin LJ Signature Model OMC-28, this one in the about to be released maple back and sides. LJ tries in this arrangement (his encore tune) to get the frenzy of the 30s big band style, including "shout chorus", trombone section glissandos, etc. He nails it. Again, fun to listen to (listen to the audience reaction) and next to impossible to play. He hits about 2 frets, but as in Pete, who cares at this pace? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7P4W...eature=related "Stolen Glances", and LJ original, often his concert opener. Not the most inspired performance of it; this tune often STARTS the concert off with a standing ovation, but this one is a little "flat", IMO. DADGAD tuning. This guitar is the LJ Martin signature with Madagascar Rosewood back and sides. At this point, LJ was using a DTar soundhole pickup, which he no longer uses. Lots of energy in this tune with an emphasis on the rhythm, but you still get the melody. |

A Theory About Scott
Jenn said: You blame her. No, I don't. I said that she showed lack of good judgement and carries some responsibility for her fate, if TK was drunk and she got in the car with him knowing that. That's too complicated for Scottie. Remember, he barely learned how to hold it in until walkies time. *I denied "them" what to Art? them words. Because as you did above, he twisted the meaning of what I said. I think you should give Witless a break here. He's not twisting your words in the sense an ideologue or debating-trader might. He's trying to whack, hack, and smack your thought into a form he can assimilate without conjuring a huge headache. If the results of Scottie's manipulations don't meet your standards of communication, I suggest you just shake your head in pity. |

Unless you accept those two facts, you're wasting everyone's time. Anyway, as part of the "we-minded" group.....uh you are part of that group aren't you?.....you're not allowed to participate in OT spam. You're certainly eager to be submissive. You often mistake opinions for declarations. Again, it's kind of difficult to interact with someone who can't overcome these obstacles. |

Then don't give us your sugarcoated bull**** opinions of these people I've not said anything about them that I don't believe. *There was nothing 'sugarcoated'. *I hope that you can understand that, but I doubt that. We already know that you won't say anything that could be construed as the least bit critical, in fear of offending your thin skinnned friends and professional acquaintances, No, it's a matter of professionalism. Then your "professional" opinions and evaluations, 'such as they are, are vacuous and worthless, you might as well kepp quiet about them, continuing your sugar coated oohs and aahs just makes you llook bad. As I said, I won't be any more music here. Correction: *As I said, I won't be posting any more music here. LOL!!! not only will you not give us honest commentary about these performances, you won't even post any more links because you don't want to see anyone else say anything the least bit derogatory about your friends. What a thin skinned ******* you are!!!!! Don't forget; I'm also a witch. Clyde, when are you going to get off your high horse and just accept what I've said as the truth? I'm not going to rank those players, neither my friends nor those I don't know, like some entrants in a pig race at the county fair because, 1. It's not considered professional behavior in my business. Perhaps that's not true in your business, but it's true in mine. Additionally, I don't find a lot to be "derogatory" about concerning the performances that I posted. That's why I posted them. That I'm not inclined to post more links has nothing to do with what you or anyone else might say about them. Your opinions are your own, and you are welcome to them. That's one of the cool things about art. You're embarrassing yourself. You should follow James' lead and drop it. |
