sranda ze tu ma 2 prispevky tento clovek 
pre mna cislo jeden pri stratoch, neuveritelne tucny zvuk:

[proghopik]

Nikdy ma popravde moc neoslovil, ani este v Procol Harum. Taky ako tarbavejsi oneskoreny pozabudnuty Hendrix.
Ani to, ze dost hraval na hajvotoch mu u mna nepomoze.

sranda, ja si ho pamatam skor s plexinami  
mna osobne v Procol tiez prilis nebavi, a s Hendrixom by som ho asi uz vobec neporovnaval. vyslovene tarbavym by som ho nenazval, ale prave to ma bavi ze je taky tazkopadnejsi a vyslovene ide po tom tucnom tone. najma album bridge of sighs je pre mna top.

Your guitar sound on all the Procol Harurn albums seems right on the edge of distortion. How did you get that?
It's difficult to pin down when I started to get into distortion, but it was definitely before my Procol Harum days. I used to play through a Selmer Little Giant valve (tube) amp which had one tiny speaker in it, and I ran a jack lead off the speaker points into a small Fender. That way, I got some of the hardness above it from the Fender and all my distortion sort of smoothness from overloading the Selmer. But, unfortunately, when it came to playing bigger places needing a bigger sound, I tried running the Selmer through a Marshall, and it didn't work. When you start to wind up the wick a bit it used to start whistling; therefore, I had to break down and start all over again to get the sound I liked. But on songs like Repent Walpurgis [Procol Harum], that's the Little Giant with the Fender, and I used my Chet Atkins solidbody.

How did you work out a solo such as the one in Repent Walpurgis?
[Brooker] knew that if he wanted a guitar solo, it would have to be something that could be played in the blues scale. So if there were changes, they had to be mostly blues things. I didn't have a lot of input, really, except for certain fills and other little parts I wrote. We'd sit around and learn the song for about one hour and then record it. I'd jam a solo; there was nothing worked out. It was just get up and wail, and that was it. I think that's basically why I didn't start to improve as a musician until I got well into my own group. But in a way it was a good thing because it's given me the style I've got today.

What guitars did you use on the other Procol Harum LPs?
For Shine On Brightly I had a '68 Gibson SG, and on A Salty Dog that was a '60s Les Paul Special run through an old, brown Gibson amp. I had another old Les Paul something or other on Home, and on Broken Barricades I played a '62 Strat. It wasn't really until I came into contact with that Strat that I settled down with one instrument. On the latter album I used it in Song For A Dreanier and Poor Mohammed.


Cize na tom Broken Barricades je uz Strat.

[joey]
