SUMMARY

The forum discussion highlights the evolution and recognition of the double lead guitar technique, originally popularized by George Harrison and later embraced by artists like Jimmy Page and the Allman Brothers. Contemporary musicians such as Orianthi and D_Drive continue to innovate within this style, showcasing complex guitar lines and synchrony.

OK, how about an 8 year old Chinese girl?



In China the younger you are the more the fold covers your eye. It must make it difficult for babies to see.

This is two versions, the original on the left channel and a brand new live version on the right. They were recorded seven years apart. Nevertheless they are almost exactly the same. I cut out 17 milliseconds at the end of the singer's solo. That was it as far as editing goes.



Should I be amazed?

Here's a worthy cover.

The first JTC Jam of the Month winner to ever become a JTC artist, and for good reason. His winning entry that lead to his inclusion to the JTC roster took a Claudio Pietronik track and made it all his own. Croatian born Igor moved to Bosnia at the age of 10 during the early stages of the war, and has since completed a 4-year arts programme in just 3 years, been named “Best Student of Banja Luka” and gone on to become a professor at that very academy. His work in prog-rock bands and solo material on YouTube has helped him carve out a name as a player able to perform all-out assaults on guitar, filled with speed and accuracy with a rich melodic core

Evlee ( from #30 and #34 above ) appears to be influenced by Igor Paspalj.
A few of her covers are pieces by him.

Larkin Poe's latest. It's a love song for her husband.

John Scofield is pretty well known, but I had no inkling he could do this.

I saw Gacharic Spin seven years ago just before they broke up. Apparently they found out that the real world was even worse than music so a year later they were back.

I gotta have a tribute band. I'll call it Geriatric Spin.

Twelve years and they just keep getting better.

It's been thirty years since I've seen an act that is a sure fire winner but Visions of Atlantis is such. They have everything. They can sing, they can play, they can compose, and they've got stage presence. A frontwoman who could be a movie star don't hurt none.



On the other hand Emilie Autumn had all those four things too and couldn't make it. But she insisted on doing everything her own way, wouldn't give up any control to powerful organizations, that was the block.

Over the past 13 years they have improved. That's the J way. They don't stop with "enough."

Bandmaid motivates a possibly extreme number of "reaction" videos from their fans. Thirty-six today. That's ten thousand a year. Wow.



A few years back the guitarist had visibly had enough of the ten years of playing in small nightclubs, with that telltale "I don't really want to be here" demeanor.. Then they started to get big gigs, rekindling enthusiasm.

Here's their first hit from ten years ago. The record company was about to drop them so it saved the band.



I prefer Akane's previous drumming style you see here. More tasteful and original with the strength of simplicity.

Their recent songs with vocals are okay...
and these probably help them get the attention they deserve.

However, I much preferred their earlier instrumental works, which were raw and unique.

Great groove, both loose and tight. Catchy tune. And they can sing. In the radio era they could have been big.



Dig the bass drum. It's got dynamics. I appreciate this oft-overlooked but key skill.

Wow! She can really sing. She's Indonesian, likely from Jakarta. That's a basically South Asian style, I've never been there but I would guess it goes from India to the Middle East, a Muslim thing. I like that style of singing, lots of subtleties that Western singers don't do. There is a tiny Japanese singer named Reol who has some south Asian influence, I hope more Westerners pick that up some day.

I don't particularly care for this style of music but God what a badass.

Nur is Arabic for "light" or "radiance" and is a common name. Often transliterated as Noor.

If this isn't a hit I'll eat my hat.

At first I thought she was a mechanic repairing that cassette.

I generally don't like AI art but it is really good at portraying grotesque ugliness, which is what this song is about.

Another banger.
