Guitar Shredder Chick 1958 - Mary Osborne

[dannyhood66]

This is west Montgomery style? She is talented' or maybe played all her life, She doesn't look stoned not necessarily but beautiful? Back then you had to be junkie' conjuntion conjuntion what is bla bla function, The bread n butter beans n rice understanding chemicals is nice' basic fundamentals of timothy o theories jazz dipped through big dipper, Flapjacks on acid taste like wonderwoman fullfuzz creamola manna due honey melts suddenly your floating in around tub of margerine amusment park

[dannyhood66]

Playing warped speed is a feeling of expression, Speed provides a euphoric rush made for human consumption. Speed with feel playing fast requires daily practice metronome whatever lighting speed is a warm feeling played effortless when improvised never sounds good with cold hands no practice, maybe people at the guitarted center think its cool like concert t shirts, The guitarted center and hot topic should be one store for the misguided maidens 80s crust metal and emmo piano riffs trend goth

I am impressed for the era when it was rare to see any woman on guitar. Emily Remler mentioned her and was inspired by her. This gal can pick and I would love to study what recordings she had if any are found. She paved the way for women of jazz! And you jazz critics can go suck on a foot pedal!

[sanjinator17]

"Soul" in music is all up to the listeners interpretation. Soul really has no place in any form of music.

[chieromancer]

Chicks rule, boys drool!

[aleckscott]

Sounds like "It Don't Mean a Thing if it Ain't Got That Swing." Anyone?

[cgravier]

her tone kinda sucks....she needs a marshall stack and maybe a dod250

[corm1000]

like all of you i to clicked on this because, I thought Holy shit a shedder chick from 1958!!

[DICKIEMONSTER]

fkabwt.

[fallonforlife]

This girl is incredible, what an insult to call her a shredder...

[Rockster969]

@fallonforlife Hmm, more a redneck plucker for jebus?

[1madaboutguitar]

@fallonforlife Ha Ha 

[fallonforlife]

Man you said a mouth full Holycrap. Metal shredding is cute for 18 yr olds in spandex, but real has to have some resemblance of soul.

[0live0wire0]

beeeeeeeeeboooooooooop

[AdobePhsyko]

Sounds like Les Paul

[toughserb145]

good for a girl

[Holycrap27]

How is this hard? She is just playing like 3 notes, I can master this in a day if I wanted to. Then there comes speed metal.

[mattlove1]

@Holycrap27 yes, master that for us and get back to us on that, we are looking forward to be being amazed.

[MrWhiskeytangofoxtro]

@Holycrap27 - speed metal is crap... a thousand notes a second with no soul or taste... shredders bore me to tears. I can appreciate the technical prowess, but there is NO SOUL.

[SawfulSawyer]

@MrWhiskeytangofoxtro Do you even know what speed metal is? Speed metal and shredding while both obviously fast aren't anywhere near to being the same thing...

[angrytroll27]

@MrWhiskeytangofoxtro what and paganini had no talent? why is that as soon as someone plays fast its considered noise?? bloody grow up at a bit! there is more to music then holding a note, playin fast is just another way to express the SOUL that you speak of.

[MrWhiskeytangofoxtro]

@angrytroll27 - wow. i keep getting comments from angry metalheads... the funny part is that I listen to as much heavy shit as i do jazz and punk... guess i offended you. oh well. i notice your profile pic is Dimebag. I am very picky about metal, a lot of it is just poorly done... but I am a huge Dimebag/Pantera fan. I also love paganini. i think Daryls' playing had tons of expression in it, but most shredders bore me to death. sorry if that hurts your feelings. wait, no i'm not. who cares?

[jazzgtrplayer]

@Holycrap27 yeah... nope

[GuitarSamuri]

It is shredding..... in the late 50s sense....jazz players can shred too.... I assume you all have heard of Guthrie Govan.... when someone played me one of his songs... oh, man.... gotta hit the woodshed some more...LOL...

[donottawaguitar]

nice amazingness

[sexyguitarboy69]

This has SO nothing to do with shredding, man. This is what is normally called swing. Regard it as some jazzy soloing style. I'm not putting her in any way! But this is no shredding. Never ever. Learn to play jazz guitar and you'll agree with me.

[neochase1]

nice !

[cathoderoy]

I don't know if you could call that "shredding"...she should have stuck with something she knew, like shredding carrots...

[guitar7901]

Who let her out of the kitchen?

[4578a]

@guitar7901 Your gonna be cooking her meals from now on!

[guitar7901]

@4578a Nah im all set.

[4578a]

@guitar7901 Yeah, you'll be settin the table for dinner.

[guitar7901]

@4578a Im a dude, I dont do that shit.

[4578a]

@guitar7901 That's like saying girls can't play jazz guitar. I'd like to see you play as good as her. Until then back in the kitchen Bitch!

[guitar7901]

@4578a Never said they couldnt play, im just wondering why there isnt a stove behind her

[mattlove1]

@guitar7901 Because she just shoved it up your ass, can't you feel the heat?

[guitar7901]

@mattlove1 No...not feeling anything

[guitarstranger]

@4578a I'm still laughing; not only are you correct, but he is a "Bitch" Right on, Sir! Mary was a classic among Gal Pickers in her day, and totally respected! Thank again for the Laugh!!!

[9misuraco6]

Ozzys mom?

[pleximanic1]

He has the origianl long hair shreader look

[pinarvarina53]

@pleximanic1 She is a woman. Men aren't generally called "chicks."

[beowulven]

@pinarvarina53

You are retarded.

[mattlove1]

@beowulven you're the one

[beowulven]

@mattlove1

The one... for you? I don't know what you mean.

[DemiTheCameraMan]

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it... Great stuff. Super fun. I just posted anew shred clip and if she's still rockin SHE would love it.

Cheers.

-Demi

[Gladleave]

Thank U, Ma`am

[guitar7901]

i thought females werent allowed to play the guitar at this time era...thats not suppose to be sexist

[guitar7901]

@wafflemonster8 still chicks in 1950s is pretty fucking attractive

[guitar7901]

@wafflemonster8 whats next they will be showing their ankles to everyone

[wafflemonster8]

@guitar7901 shes good at gutiar. but i think she might be dead by now XD

[guitar7901]

@wafflemonster8 well shes either dead or dieing

[wafflemonster8]

@guitar7901 yah, shes at least 75 if shes alive, :|

[NickinDK]

@wafflemonster8

She died in 1992

[wafflemonster8]

@NickinDK thanks, i did not know :) at what age?

[RikFilms]

@guitar7901 We're all dying.

[cathoderoy]

@wafflemonster8 I think if anything, she may have been given a break BECAUSE she was a woman...not meant to be sexist, either, btw...(is a little, though)...

[sclogse1]

You think Mary is playing a Gibson here? Is this before her deal with Gretsch? If it's a Gibson, you think it's a 350?

I promise to upload Mary Osborne Audio this month...jan 2011. (got her album on ebay last week...a japanese reissue long out of print.)

[sclogse1]

[serpentisma]

wow, not bad. sounds great.

[Houseraider]

Still rocki´n

[2300skiddo]

Shredding, Shmedding - Mary Osborne could play rings around almost any rock guitarist.

[frostyjr2]

maybe not shredding, but certainly swinging ! :) an inspiration 4 sure !!!

[bigbigsound]

that was good must've been a really big deal back then seeing a female guitarist,lovely stuff.

[thomasneilson]

she's not shredding, just playing at a moderate blues speed
