Shadows Collide With People is one of my favorite albums of all time. I’m always surprised that it wasn’t more popular. Also, Murderers has been my ringtone for at least a decade. I love this guy. Such an influence on my guitar playing.

Ricky and Every Person are two of my favorites of his. As of now I’d say Shadows is my favorite as well.

I noticed how much he mentioned pushing into the absolute limits of the guitar, as per a lot of the prog players. Making noises with the guitar that have nothing to do with the guitar, a new approach to the instrument. I like that. I think thats where his head is at for the album right now. Im excited

[@vkoivula]

It seems that progressive rock has been very important part in John's spiritual journey. I can definitely understand that when thinking of songs like Supper's ready. No wonder John was wearing Foxtrot t-shirt in the recent promotional pictures and Larks' Tongues in Aspic t-shirt in some podcast/vodcast.

[@nickdumont9891]

Best part about John for shante is that he takes the lesser and makes it more and for me as a guitarist that has never really done anything great and also play many instruments it makes me feel absolutely satisfied with the minimalism that I'm creating. Everyday

[@iamcaseywood7960]

Nick: Damn right you should take pride and be proud of anything where you do something that brings you joy or some sense of achievement. I played Clarinet and Sax when young through the grade system right to grade 9 by which point I just stopped, was sick of the whole thing. I was 16 when I just abandoned them. Last summer, bored to death working very little and from home, Ibought a second hand guitar in a charity shop (I was searching for vintage vinyl.) I just played around with it and recorded a few of my very poor renditions of songs I just felt out not knowing or ever having held a guitar before. (I'm in my 40s) I mean, I sounded awful......but the satisfaction from just feeling my way and sort of managing a (shite) but recognisable song ........The joy was something else, seriously. Way outstripped any feeling despite a fairly accomplished Clarinet and Saxaphonist I once was when rather young - because I chose to give the guitar try. The early achievement was under duress of a music teacher who convinced my parents I was "musical" whatever the fuck that meant??? and suggested I took up Clarinet (leading to Sax soon after.) Anyway, my pal broke the guitar around Christmas time; and really, I'm not likely to buy another. It's not my skill or passion; that's something away from music. Doesn't make my experience any less joyful though. You sound like you're very gifted at most musical instruments; like you can pick up any instrument and play instinctively. That's precious a gift and rare. There aren't many who can do that intuitively. Don't ever measure your worth against what someone else can do. That makes us all losers! The only person you need to please or satisfy is you. Fuck everyone else. Peace and love brother.💙👌.

Like your style . David.sqeeze that sound outa um thanks for being here.

[@davidcervin3408]

Interesting hearing you talk about your influences on guitar as I can relate to them pat smear I new little of at the time obviously he was an influence on many others of the west coast being of the midwest I'd not heard a lot about him he must be a man of skill without to much ego. As I've heard a lot about without noticing he was even playing and cherished by most of his musical family (friends) I cant pinpoint his style of playing what would be good example of his character on guitar? The others you mentioned adrian b. Jeff oh ya Frank had a newspaper or newsletter when I passed through hollywood in 80s on way to unravel in rainforest Hawaii and I found that cool Frank with his own column in the local music scene I think when I popped in blood sugar ... it didn't come outa my cassette deck in car for at least 1 year thanks for your input man cool energy and insights .d.c.

I am actually pretty sad that John thinks that rock is dead now and there is no innovation. I mean look at Polyphia, Plini, Animals as Leaders, Mateus Assato, Ichika - all these guys are soooooo innovative I wish he knew about them

[@iamcaseywood7960]

Maybe he does. Maybe he just doesn't like them? Listen, I categorically am NOT digging you out AT ALL. I'm simply suggesting that if he doesn't rate any rock bands then it's reasonable that he might think it's dead because he has a low opinion of it, not because he doesn't know of such bands' existence. Or, maybe he doesn't as you suggested and if he did then who knows..... No offence intended just thinking about the possibilities. Love to you and to all.💙👌

[@jkoleee7107]

@@iamcaseywood7960 For sure, we don't know if he knows about them, but knowing him I think he would enjoy them, as they also carry the legacy of Hendrix, so I assume he doesn't know about them lol If you love any of the Frusciante's electronic stuff - check out Polyphia, they are really cool and Plini is very psychedelic/cinematic in his songwriting

[@iamcaseywood7960]

@@jkoleee7107 Thanks, yeah I agree Tricky Johnny is a tour de force solo and I love all his solo work. (Love RHCP also with and without John) I really dig that the finest guitar player in the world (arguably) is driven to not just bask in the glory and play his guitar in his astonishingly accomplished brilliance. I also like that he doesn't seem to be driven to be successful in terms of success as defined typically that is; by public adoration but rather, successful in terms that he decides matter. I wonder what it costs him emotionally to dig so deep inside and convey such bleak but exquisitely beautiful truths about life through the medium of music but also beyond the limitations of linguistics......I sometimes can't listen to his solo records because they hit so hard......it takes me time to get over it, no matter how well I know the record. So I'm assuming it must cost him emotionally/somewhere deep inside? You sound like you're possibly a musician? Maybe you can give me your thoughts? Nice interacting with you sweet soul. Love and peace.💙👌

@@iamcaseywood7960 I think he made his peace with the Beaty and ugliness of the world and the life and for him the act of self-expression itself is more important than the message he sends. Idk, I re-listen to The Empyrean on a regular basis, it sort of became a religious experience, so many lessons from that album I am not from US, I am from Ukraine lol I am not really into classic rock, but I love The Big Push, they are from Brighton and they do covers and originals that is very inspired by that sound, I think

[@macanoodough]

I don't know why people insist on calling the NY scene punk. I am around the same age and had access to east coast/west coast and I agree. The bands on the west coast were punk, the CBGB's crowd were so diverse from raw rock n roll bands like The Ramones to New Wave/Hybrids like Blondie and The Talking Heads, whatever label describes that band, I haven't found one... And I am not saying who's better, just that, like the 90's, bands were too different to categorize. The label was really just to help you find the records in stores by knowing which bin to look for them in.
