Music Is The Best
США
Добавлен 29 авг 2021
I'm Paul Lankamp. Extensive music taste. Self-taught guitar player.
In the 80s I played in a band called The Imaginairy Diseases. We did kinda 'melodic garage rock' with 3 guitars, bass & drums. Kinda precursors of Grunge. LOL
After 1992 work took too much time. Besides I broke my left wrist. After that I never got the speed in my hand/fingers anymore.
I didn't play anymore from around 1993 till 2020. It took a few months to learn how to play again. I had much help from countless backing tracks getting further into soloing. Where I do miss the technique I had around 1990, I think I can play with more feeling and more variety than in those days.
I love improvising! Creating something new, HERE and NOW!
Thanks for checking my channel! Hope you like my guitar solo improvisations!

Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar (Frank Zappa) guitar solo improvisation (Birthday tribute)
Zappa jams. Celebrating what would have been the 84th birthday of the legendary Frank Zappa. Guitar solo improvisation (in C Lydian and beyond) on a backing track inspired by Frank Zappa's Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar, which is from the solo section of Inca Roads as played live in 1979.
The sound of my guitar is a little bit low in the mix (due to my simple way of recording with my cell phone). Hope you can enjoy my improvised tribute anyway! Note the little trick with the low E string at 2:08 min. I copied that from FZ when I saw him use it live on some solos in 1988. It gives a nice fat sound.
The best way to listen to this is through speakers or headphones.
