Re: All and all it's just another brick in the well
From: "L. Bird" <pkeets@hotmail.com>
"Here's another interesting thought about influcences. I'd like to propose
that black musicians (such as Hendrix) would have never come up with
feedback as a musical technique. That kind of squall doesn't seem to occur
in the black culture at all, but it does occur in Celtic music. It took a
Celt to recognize the electronic scream as a musical sound, and get the
notion to control it."
Who and when? Let's talk history, not social/cultural theory.
BTW, I'll agree that Hendrix did not invent it. He just perfected the
technique.
