Playing in Style of Fender Stratocaster

Customer Review: insight to signature fender telecaster styles/sounds
this video and the accompanying booklet provide great insight for the beginner or experienced player to the equipment spec's., and details of special tunings, chord-voicings and techniques of the most prominent and enduring telecaster driven superstars. i have not been able to find a second, or follow-up volume to this video (an effort well-warranted). nonetheless, if you're looking for a launching point from which to delve further into the playing of superstars like danny gatton, james burton, johnny lang, albert lee, kieth richards, and andy summers- this is money and time well spent.


I can describe the latest release from Rock super group Wallflowers for you with just one word Outstanding!

Wallflowers have been a super stars in the Rock genre for quite some time now and Bringing Down The Horse is an excellent illustration as to why.

Bringing Down The Horse is a nicely varied, mix of 11 tracks that are very well written and brilliantly performed songs by these clearly outstanding musicians. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Seemingly drawing from what I can only imagine are their own personal experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, and the pain of failed relationships can certainly be heard.

Listen to and I think youll agree that the song choices are excellent, the production is outstanding and Wallflowers is clearly a group that is in top form.

While this entire CD is outstanding the truly standout tunes are track 1 - One Headlight, track 7 - Laughing Out Loud, and track 11 - I Wish I Felt Nothing.

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 9 - God Don't Make Lonely Girls. Its a great track!
