A stunning solo version of a Bowie classic by an LA musician (from the group Capital Cities); its always interesting to see someone take on a number known for high, lavish production values and reduce it simply and artfully to just one person and one instrument...

Ya gotta admit though Ennio Morricone is da'man and does it better so too that good looking soprano Susanna Rigacci, boy does she have a set of lungs on her.

Rumble is one of the archetypal R&R guitar recordings of all time. I remember, as a young kid, hearing the number on the radio and being captivated by the sound of that guitar and the overall feeling of menace in the mood. I remember the older kids really liked the record, but our school frowned upon it as being "JD" (juvenile delinquent) music; it was never banned in San Francisco, and it wasn't until years later I learned it was banned in other cities. This Wikipedia article has some interesting information: Rumble (instrumental) -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rumble_(instrumental) The number was also very influential for one particular listener who later went on to make a bit of a name for himself on the guitar: There is something amusing about watching someone like Page playing 'air guitar to favorite record... I know there are several guitar players in Subsim and I think it might be interesting to hear about what their first guitar influence experiences were. I started being interested in playing guitar when I heard Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley songs on the radio as a kid; Bo had that rhythm and that tremolo guitar sound, but Chuck had all those flash licks and runs, so this song is the one that really got me wanting a guitar: Every guitar player that followed after him owes a royalty to Chuck for all those cool playing moves they nicked from him over the years... I still play 'air guitar' to that song... Years later, as a 13-year-old kid watching the Ed Sullivan show in February of 1964, four rather regular looking guys with guitars had girls screaming to get at them; hmm, regular guys (like me) with teenage girls throwing themselves at them (unlike me) and the main difference was they had guitars and I didn't: "I really gotta get a guitar!!" ... Anybody else?... <O>

Oh yea.
I started to play when I was about 12 or 13. I couldn't sing or play rhythm very well and I still can't so I got into playing lead which seem to come natural. Back then (early 60's) there was no TAB books or YouTube. I think it made you a better player to learn by ear. These are some of the first songs I tried to learn with varying degrees of success. Rebel-'Rouser - Duane Eddy Walk Don't Run - The Ventures Memphis - Lonnie Mack

True story time, years before I joined the Navy I was in college and goofing with two old, beat up guitars when I had the spare time.
I had been on the lookout for an album called Burgers and a copy finally showed up at a music store so I snagged it. It was a big mistake. The first time I listened to the opening notes of I KNEW I could never get THAT good. |
