sure, if you want I can fart straight in your mouth. Last time I did it to a mexican bum, he said it's been the best high he's ever had, since he found out heroin.

Don't forget Frank Zappa and Steve Howe were using tapping in the early '70s. Ed didn't really invent it at all, he just took the credit.Comment

Here's the video of Genesis from 1973. Steve Hackett is tapping with a pick - watch 5:04 (counting down):

BTW, Zappa's clips are probably from 1976.Last edited by if6was9; 06-23-2007, 07:05 PM.Hummala bebhuhla zeebuhla boobuhla hummala bebhuhla zeebuhla bopComment

sleazeroxx.com reports: In a recent interview with www.sleazeroxx.com, former Johnny Crash guitarist Christopher Neelley talked about his days on the Sunset Strip scene. The following are some of Chris' comments from the interview:
"I once told Axl (Rose) when he was working at Tower Video on Sunset that he should join my band because that Guns and Roses thing is going nowhere. Months later I auditioned Izzy Stradlin and his buddy Chris Webber. They insisted that they came as a duo and would not accept a gig unless both were hired. I told Chris he had the gig if he wanted it but not Izzy because he sucked and would never do anything as a guitarist. LOL"
"Everything Eddie Van Halen did and got credited with inventing was because Randy Rhoads did it first. Randy invented the second hand on the fret board. He was doing it years before Eddie got famous doing it. Randy knew he was onto something and he actually used to turn his back to the audience when he would do it. I remember hearing the first Van Halen album and thinking what a rip off of Randy. Van Halen was very entertaining. They used to do Motown tunes and hum the horn parts, it was really pretty funny. Had no idea they would be that huge. They were friends with a band called SNOW (pure uncut rock) that featured Carlos Cavazo. I always thought Snow was the band that was going places LOL.

As soon as Ed hit the stage and started gaining cred for two handed fret stomping .
All the old dogs rose up and claimed it's been done before!! by who Rustoffa mentioned and others. This news was out in the seventies..
This guy quoted up top was way off course and out of tune-age.
I remember this reading this story from a long time ago.
The thing the old dogs added, who had any class was -But it was never done like this(Ed)- Ed made it his own and credited others for the first notes.
Kinda like the guy who invented The -oil rig- is the reason, we made it to the Moon.
Kinda Crude neeEds Refinement.Comment

Tho they both acknowledged each other, Randy stated that Leslie West from the Band Mountian was his biggest influence. along with Mick Ronson from David Bowies band.

Tapping was not invented by Rhoads or VH. Plenty of accounts of the technique prior to both of them. BTW, Rhoads tapping is remedial at best.Ed was my hero, now Dave is.Comment

Everyone pretty much played guitar the same way until Hendrix hit the scene, and totally reinvented it. The same thing happened once Ed and VH came out. There are alot of great guitar players that came before, during and after those guys, but they didn't reinvent how people looked and played the instrument. Hendrix and Ed changed the whole landscape of guitar playing in the last 40 yrs. They are not even in the same league as other players, they are much beyond that.Comment
