"You know the difference between a jazz musician and a rock musician, right? A rock musician plays three chords to thousands of people and a jazz musician plays thousands of chords to three people."

Some of my favorite jazz has one chord.

Miles and Trane and Ornette are the first punks.

I saw that on Facebook and thought another over rated rocker blowing there own horn to feel good about their minimal skills and talents.

One thing modern music keeps constant just because your popular does not mean you have talent or any great skill.

LADY GAGA COMES TO MIND RIGHT OFF THE BAT!!! AKA THE NEW MADONNA!!!

I would rather be as talented as Earl Klugh or Larry Coryell any day compared to most rock guitarist I've seen live or heard on the radio and I've easily worked some where in the range of 12 to 15 thousand concerts in my lifetime.

Funny, but the first girl I dated after moving to Tulsa to go to school got her "look" from Chrissie Hynde. I worked for me! This was in '82-'83 back when the Pretenders were all over MTV. Dang, I can't remember her name now... :thwap

I remembered mine, Gail. :)

It was 80-83 we were going together, now you got me thinking. When we met I was 40 and she was 43.

1980 was 30 years ago. If you were 40 at the time like you said, 40 + 30 = 70.

Yup. I have to admit, I had the exact same reaction as you guys and I did the math a couple of times to make sure I had it right.
