workin on 00s layout can't decide on contrast/brightness differences for something F***ckkkk this is driving me crazy

no rush

oh i made this layout like 2 months ago, but recently been messing with detail s*** and now it's driving me crazy

literallly just switching the contrast and brightness back and forth trying to figure out which i like better

\i asked my roomate which one was better, ..."I like them both" ... like thanks but that wasnt the question

It’s probably my favorite thing he’s done also. Every track is good, the features all hit hard and West is in his bag. The songs he has with wrestling titles are always good, so you’re right he really made it work this time around

that one and the title track are the masterpieces on the album for me. The others are still very good but the album in general really benefit from being this Fusion/Blues fusion and Peter Green's guitar being the emotional highlight of every track without any vocals trying to steal the spotlight. Descending Scale is perhaps the trippiest and most atmospheric track. The title track is imo the greateat guitar solo ever.

His ear for sound sculpting is extremely underrated too imo.

The album takes a while to sink in tho. It might appear a bit noodly at first but that turns out to be pretty far from the truth imo.

speaking of guitar solos. what are your favorite solos? we often talk about guitarists but rarely about solos.

this is up there

Hound Dog
Mr Youre A Better Man Than I
Tangerine
Powderfinger
Black Math
Not sure which Peter Green I like best yet but he's in the tippy top tier

Obligatory Watchtower

it hit really hard first listen just cause i was so blitzed laying in the scorching sun, aways helps you transcend faster

just occurred to me germans probably dont have the same definition of "blitzed" as canadians

everybody gangster until nels cline starts jerking off the guitar :😳

Agreed about his ear for sculpting.... Thats why his non blues songs almost have a post-rock feel. Closing My Eyes sound exactly like Godspeed in miniature at times.

Did I tell you about how I always thought I was 100% Anglo-Saxon Irish Scottish English until I was watching M last time and I realized how similar inspector Lohmann's name was to my mother's maiden name, Brohman, and I was like "wait a minute am I German" and the rest of my family was like "yes youre 1/4 German" that side of the family has been in Canada for like 6 generations though

regret asking

Voodoo Child (Slight Return)

gotta b cowgirl in the sand

this is my favourite song but i wouldnt quite give its his best solo. respect tho.

The urgency of that last solo is potent af

cortez and on the beach are right up there too

I gave it to powderfinger so much emotion packed into that final solo

Like A Hurricane is Neil's Watchtower if we're being honest

yeah damn that’s up there as well, def spinning some rust after work

Nobody has more scorching yet precise and incredibly angular solos than Beck in the mid 60s.

He took what Dave Davies did on the early Kink hits to the next level, and Hendrix was just taking what Beck did with the Yardbirds to the next level, adding some elegant Mayfield textures and more legitimate blues.
