Brian D 6:38:07 PM
Wanna hear fuzz piano (elec piano) : And The Cradle Will Rock - Eddie VH. Old Wurlitzer through a Marshall I think. That whole intro is mega fuzz piano
Matthew Snopenhauer 6:38:19 PM
Nice!
Matthew Snopenhauer 6:38:50 PM
Eddie was a crazy dutchman
Captain Ahab (host) 6:39:16 PM
Thanks Brian :) I knew someone would chime in with a fuzz piano rec when I mentioned it
Brian D 6:39:57 PM
Yessir. Love reading about the VH bros. Dad Jan VH was a musician too. Clarinet and other instr.
Matthew Snopenhauer 6:40:05 PM
Jason Lytle of Grandaddy has probably run his piano thru fuzz at some point
Roffle... 6:40:14 PM
As if a grand piano with sustain pedal needs a sustainiac. It does.
Roffle... 6:41:43 PM
I know Traffic did the Sax and fuzz-box thing long ago too.
Brian D 6:42:25 PM
Had fun looking up that Altın Mikrofon (Golden Microphone) comp from last week. A bit hard to track down but there is a large set of those Turkish psych tracks and I believe smaller releases for each year. That was a competition right Ahab?
Brian D 6:43:27 PM
Ya Traffic did sax into wah wah pedal too. Chris Wood. Way too young
Captain Ahab (host) 6:43:40 PM
That's correct Brian! They put out a release for each of the top 10s for each year, ive got some more lined up from '66 for today
Captain Ahab (host) 6:44:15 PM
Next time I go to Turkey hopefully i can track down some of these records
Captain Ahab (host) 6:44:26 PM
would like to start building a physical collection
Roffle... 6:45:06 PM
Buried at Gobki tepi... '66!
Brian D 6:47:20 PM
Very Maiden esque gtr here. And I see Big Orra records wonder if there is a connection
Matthew Snopenhauer 6:49:00 PM
Big Orra!! Always wondered what that meant
Brian D 6:49:22 PM
I think it just means big horror. Cockney./ UK accent and all etc
