Stumbled on this, found myself missing a person I've never even met. (I'm a Queen fan, but I wasn't around when they were actually performing).

Jeff will always be my favorite guitar player.

'The Fives', which was composed by George and Hersal Thomas from Texas, was copyrighted in 1921 and published in 1922, deserves much credit for the development of modern Boogie Woogie. All modern Boogie Woogie bass figures can be found in "The Fives," including swinging, walking broken-octave bass, shuffled (swinging) chord bass (of the sort later used by Ammons, Lewis, and Clarence "Pine Top" Smith), and the ubiquitous "oom-pah" ragtime stride bass. Awesome...keep it up!!!

Great to have this thread - I'm always fascinated by what us "visual creatives" like to stick in our ears!
And nice to see Primus getting a showing - that nutcase Les Claypool is the man responsible for the callouses on my fingers from spanking my plank!

Here's a little taste of PNEU - These guys blew me away when I saw them recently (sadly they don't get over to the UK too often).
Apologies for the lousy audio quality - they have some studio stuff, but the coolest bit of the experience is that the vid' shows how they always play live. Two French dudes, minimal gear, a big rug in the middle of the room - and they like you to get real close - as in nearly knocking their gear over CLOSE! Real sweet pair of fellas too...

And once my ears have stopped bleeding after that, I like to mellow out before bedtime with a little Renaud Garcia-Fons. You have to see it to believe that one guy, a double bass, and a few gadgets can make such a beautiful sound...
