And yet 1-4-6-5 (or whatever variant you want to play those four chords) based songs are still to this day really successful Big Grin (But who am I to argue with the mathematics of music, it translates well in the human brain, I guess Tongue)

indeed, it translates well ino human brains...but its not so Original anymore...specifically the glam rock area of the 80 s it was used a lot ...almost every song had these elements ..example roxette listen to your heart...must have been love etc etc etc ...Europe, carry etc etc ....

its just 1 3 4 5 6 2 1 5 1 ...thats called the main cadens,,,, its just harmonising within in the scale

now, when u r playing in A and u want to modulate the tonal center of the piece ur playing ...u have to modulate ..for example a to b flat ..

thats A , d minor (flat subdominant in A) but it is also moll dur, the 3 th in b flat.
by using a moll dur , (i use german names becous i m dutch and dont know the english names) u have a coupling of 2 different scales by 1 common harmony ...
so now, (said that the d minor is the 3 th of b flat)..u can again apply the main cadens to finish confirming the tonal change..

a dm(moll durr) es f gm cm b-flat f b-flat


however this is just 1 way ..there are many more.

I feel the same way about Eddie Van Halen, I can only think of 2 Van Halen songs I like "Ain't talkin bout love" and "Little dreamer"
The rest to me seem bland and wishy washy and too happy, maybe it's because I don't like overly happy songs usually. Yet eddy van halens style is one my my favourites, the solo for Michael Jackson's "Beat it" was my favorite for years it still is one of my favorites.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.

I like David Gilmour. I think he's the most underrated guitarist out there, but he can really make the guitar sing.

Other than him I do like Eric Clapton and BB King.

As a dirty old prog-rocker I'm going to have to go with Steve Howe of Yes

I've managed to catch them at least once on every tour since 1999 and he never fails to disappoint (well except when he insists on playing that bloody lap guitar)

Django Reinhardt blows my mind in ways that no rock guitarist ever has.

And for sheer tastefulness (one of those guitarists who really did play for the song rather than his ego), Steve Cropper. I loves me some Stax!

RE: Favourite guitarist.
The electric guitar is overrated, in my opinion. I prefer the bass guitar.

Les Claypool, Tony Levin, Flea, and, of course, Billy Gould.
