#ROGER MCGUINN 2021 TV#
Vietnam, San Fran, Cuba, plastics, airlines, TV advertisements, Apollo 11, The Troubadour, Portobello Road and The Byrds. Here are a generation celebrating their glory days. They’re mostly oldies, but there’s nothing wrong with that. He just jams out his favourites to a highly receptive crowd. In fact McGuinn hasn’t brought out an album in a while one in the last twenty years. He’s not all geriatric like Bob Dylan, with that thousand-yard vacant stare peddling the recent material that is frankly bloody awful. And he’s still traipsing about doing the one-man-band thing everywhere from Tucson to Cheltenham to bloody Utrecht. Now think about how bloody old that makes Roger McGuinn. that present-day occasional stoner dad likes to recall in those rosy anecdotes. It’d be another fifteen years before he got into the acid and heavy metal, Black Sabbath, Aerosmith et. With Rickenbacker Guitars – Out of the Frying Pan Into the Fireglo, Martin and Paul have given us the definitive history of these magical instruments.Jesus, is Roger McGuinn stick kicking about? It’s been almost fifty bloody years since The Byrds released their big break out Turn! Turn! Turn! (To Everything There is a Season).īack then your dad was still a bloody zygote. Susanna Hoffs of the Bangles adds: “There are few things more satisfying than the shimmer of an open chord played on a Rickenbacker through a Fender Deluxe Reverb amplifier. Thanks for such a wonderful history of my favorite guitar!” Roger McGuinn enthuses of the book: “The attention to detail is amazing! I’ve been playing Rickenbacker guitars for over 50 years and had heard some of the history but learned so much more from Rickenbacker Guitars – Out of the Frying Pan Into the Fireglo. The slip case also includes an embossed card wallet containing three specially produced posters: one depicting all seven surviving Beatle Rickenbackers, a second featuring six famous 330 guitars played by Paul Weller with The Jam, and a replica 1960s shop poster.
