| 1072.1 | tape rentals | ANT::JACQUES | | Thu Jan 12 1989 13:05 | 9 |
| Just FYI, Wurlitzers Music rents video instructional courses.
They have the "Star Licks" videos by several differant people.
Naturally, they charge more than movie rental clubs, but it
still beats paying $30 or more to buy the tape. I think they
get around $4-5/night, but don't quote me on that. I would
imagine that other music stores also offer rentals.

| 1072.3 | copywright laws | ANT::JACQUES | | Thu Jan 12 1989 13:16 | 18 |
| re. putting tabliture into the note file.
It has been made explicitly clear in many of the notes conferances
that printing copywrighted material is forbidden. This includes
lyrics to songs, sheet music (neat trick if we could do it),
tabliture, etc. This is done to prevent DEC from being sued.
I am sure that the Vinnie Moore Video has been copywrighted, and
electronically reproducing it in any form would certainly be an
infringement.
On the other hand, I would imagine that entering the tabliture
into a computer file FOR YOUR OWN USE might be okay.

| I've only seen about 35 seconds of Michael Angelo playing but it
was more than enough to pique my interest.
Those of you players who are "too cool to play fast" (to quote
Steve Morse about a particular kind of attitude problem) shouldn't
bother. If you don't think that energy that speed conveys is
musically "valid" or some nonsense like that, this is not the
tape for you.

validity of speed as well as the technical accomplishment

| Phil Keaggy also has an Instructional Electric Guitar Video for
$29.95 (just released). Some local (to Phoenix) bookstores do rent
it though. I'll post the highlights of the video tomorrow.
The latest issue of CCM is focusing on guitarists. Some interesting
interviews in there with Keaggy and Christopher Parkening, among
others.

| ref. Dave, Mark, and Buck info...
Thanks for the advice. In case you havn't heard of it ( who could
blame you) SOLENT is in the UK.
I wish we had a video store over here that rents guitar tutorials..
anybody know of one???
You have got a good point about the copyright laws... I will can
the idea of putting Vinnie Moore details up on the NOTES file.
might just stick the odd arpeggio out (they must be public domain
...!!)
I printed out the lixx/tricks file. Seems a great idea, but after
a few replies, it lost direction. This may start a new topic up,
but how about Lixx/tricks II. I will kick it off next week with
tabulature on a couple of runs/phrases that i have come across.
May I set the scene by asking that ANYTHING goes in this NOTE,
simple, difficult, old hat, new wave, heavy metal etc.
Anything from basic" rock" licks to "how the hell does he do that"
is fine by me.
For my part, learning/stealing new licks is the "glue" that keeps me
fascinated in the guitar.

| RE: copyright laws...
If someone called or wrote to the copyright holder and was a
able to secure permission to enter the material in this notesfile,
would it be OK then??
Welcome Dave, I look forward to reading lixx/trixx II

| ref .7
That might be a way to legalise my idiot suggestion ( hands in gear,
brain in neutral ).
I can see how the TOTAL video package is the intellectual property
of Vinnie Moore, and my offer to take it's details and enter them
on NOTES would have been a clear infringement.
What if one of you asked for the details of a solo, and a colleage
replied showing the tabulature on the NOTES file ? Is this an
infringement? Had that same colleage obtained the tab by reading
the sheet music, is he now in trouble ? Surely not....
My point is this, what if ( say in the lixx/tricks section) I gave
details in isolation, of runs, tips, scales, etc that I had got from
the video ?
Here is a simple example.....
this is a D major arpegio
E 2 5 2
B 3 3
G 2 2
D 4 4
A 5 5
E
Am I now a criminal ? Jeeze ..I hope not, I like working for Digital
I think I'll cool it for a bit, but I intend to take your advice
and create my own little VMS file for my own personal use. I may
even share it with any guitarist buddies should the occasion arise.

Here's an even cooler D major arp (IMHO):
e 5 10 5
b 7 7
g 7 7
d 7 7
a 5 9 9 5 (add wide vibrato here! <^;)
e
Combined with Mr. Litten's, you can get two good positions happening.

Hey Buck, I thought metal players added

| Or, you could play it like this...
E 7 12 7
B 8 8 H harmonic at 5th
G 9 9 H fret together
D 9 9 then whammy way
A 7 10 10 7 down;^);^)
E
Kind of looks like a normal distribution ;^)

For those seeing more of a Paganini sound, here's an addition to Mr
Litten and Mr. Minville's conrtibutions:
H = hammer with pick
PO = pull pick off sting to sound next chord tone
-s- = Slide pick on string to next c.t.
H PO
E 3 5 7 12 -s- 15 -s- 12 7 5 3
B 5 5

D 5 5
A 7 7

| 1072.15 | Questions... | DNEAST::GREVE_STEVE | If all else fails, take a nap... | Tue Jan 17 1989 14:07 | 34 |
|
Buck, three stooopid questions?
What's an arp?
This is pretty, where do you use it, where would I (novice) use
it?
Why are the long stretches used instead of going to a lower or higher
string
For example:
e 5 10 5
b 7 7
g 7 7
d 7 7
a [5]9 9 5 (add wide vibrato here! <^;)
e
Why not play the [5] on the A string at, say, 10th fret on the
E? Is it just because it doesn't sound as good??

> What's an arp?
An abbreviation for Arpeggio. There is a good description of an
arpeggio lurking around this file. It was a recent addition.
>Why are the long stretches used instead of going to a lower or higher
>string
Well, for one the arpeggio is in position to facilitate ease in
sweep picking for a faster execution. Its easier to play faster
when you hammer the D [5] to the f# [9] then sweep pick until the
e string where you turn it around. You'd pull off on those two
notes on the way down. Also, its much easier to finger in position.
I use the following fingering:
e 5 10 5
b 7 7
g 7 7
d 7 7
a [5] 9 9 5 (add wide vibrato here! <^;)
e
1 4 2 2 2 1 4 1 2 2 2 4 1
if you used the D on the low e string, 10th fret, I'd have to do
something like this:
e 5 10 5
b 7 7
g 7 7
d 7 7
a 9 9 (add wide vibrato here! <^;)
e 10 10
4 3 2 2 2 1 4 1 2 2 2 3 4
Which is possible, but a little uncomfortable for me, esp. at high
speeds. I usually use the 10th fret "D" when I want an F# as the
top note of the arpeggio (implying 2nd inversion). That arpeggio
in I just mentioned I'd finger like this (for those interested):
e 10 14 10
b 10 10
g 11 11
d 12 12
a 12 12
e 10 14 14 10
Buck, who sez there are no rules to the hows n whys. It comes down
to convenience.
