I spent the whole 1st year at music college trying to master the intro on guitar.... :grin:


....Did you try turning your guitar upside down and playing left handed like Jimi did?

What a cool cat  :notworthy: - I wonder what he'd be playing now if he was still around.

Love this one of Prince giving some big names a guitar lesson.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Simon! How can we forget to include Prince in this thread!

That's a mighty fine track: One of George Harrison's best songs and I love Tom Petty's voice. Those supergroup get togethers are often a mess and with too many ego's competing (you have to have ego to be a star) but this one is awesome.

The genius Prince:



I adore Prince's music and have been lucky enough to see him a few times. Once a week after Michael Jackson and stunning as Jacko was ("Bad" tour), Prince was more varied and more real. His guitar playing is always quality rather than quantity.

Here's a cleaner sounding vid of The Purple One's "Purple Rain":



When I first heard and saw film of Prince I thought he was a weirdo in love with himself. But whatever he is or isn't, he can play just about anything - Funk, jazz, rock, ballad, gospel, blues, and do it all well. His live shows are amazing. Genius!

Something a bit different, the Icelandic band Sigur ros (Victory Rose in Icelandic). I can't really think of a suitable genre to put them into, they are their own genre! You will have most likely heard songs from these guys being used on numerous tv shows and films - Top Gear, BBC's Planet Earth series, Vanilla Sky. Amazingly talented and something great to zone out to, Jónsi's voice is stunning, I'll let the music do the talking though!

I recommend the following songs from their albums "Ágætis byrjun", "( )" and "Takk"

Njósnavélin (The Spy Machine) - This is played at the end of Vanilla Sky on the roof of the skyscraper


Flugufrelsarinn (The fly's saviour)


Ágætis Byrjun (An alright start) -


Glósóli (Glowing Sun)

Beautiful!!  :congrats:

Still one of the greatest bands in the world:



^ You can see how much they hate their jobs!

Not the greatest quality of film but the sound is good and captures the atmosphere   :notworthy:

Bit poppy but the background tune is there






Points to VC for kicking a tune thread off again  :drinking:
