you got some talent ..i am 62 remember quicksilver on my stereo in college ...you captured the essence of what it was and i know because it was burned into my
young mind by polaying about 18 gazillion times...you are a credit to youth strong one ...i LOVE this power you delivered...walk on ......nice power....
You are a lil' badass!! I was raised to this album and have always loved it--When I saw/heard you play this you blew me away!! Keep up the good work!!!
Thanks! In making this one, I remember for both the guitar and the mic connecting them to the computer via my effects board (BOSS ME-50). So, that I used to control the tone for the guitar and kind of as an equalizer you might say for the vocals.
I've watched this a dozen times now over the last year and a half, and each time it is as fresh and exciting as the first time I saw it! And I was a QMS fan at your age.
Your singing is great, also. Remix it with your voice brought forward and it'll be perfect.
surprisingly good now hang out in a few squats ,do the carlos castoneda thing ,ignore the majors and if not already you'll all be magical ! keep on trucking
Hey Kid, I hope that you play this for a live crowd instead soon. You've got wicked good talent! I recently discovered Quicksilver Messenger Service and this is one of my favorites. You truly do this song justice.
Technically impressive, now if you only had Cippolina's amp setup, longer hair and looked like a rail-thin, angular cheekboned 60's guitar God... =;-) Seriously, glad to see younger musicians keeping the QMS vibe going!
>>y not embrace all good music instead of classifying oneself, bracketing oneself, from other genres (ie rap, country, classic soul and rnb, and classic rock) that produce quality sounds too. broaden folks broaden...
are you sh*tting me??? Thanks for keeping this alive!! All of you have so much ahead of you..I never would've believed that people your age (yes, I know how that sounds) would like this. Thank you, thank you. Youth rocks.
Nice gituar work on one of the best guittar solos in rock music. I am glad to see someone under 50 appreciates this song enough to learn to play it. Can you do the Fool too?
NICE! i must have played qs cd billion times when my dad bought it for me. always wanted to figure this shit out. got my own version of who do you love on my vid. check it out if you like.
man i thot i was the only kid that dug this stuff.
mann that's a job well done....you make john cipollina proud. wish there were more folks game to play that stuff nowadays, i cant find any bandmates willing to do that haha.
That is Fucking awesome, I thought I was the only person our age who liked quicksilver, I was wrong. Your are cking good at the guitar, where did you find the tabs for that song?
Wow, you're proof that our generation can bring it back. Let's see what the world looks like in a few years after the 'new' breed of freaks, heads and longhairs take over.
Peace out
See you in BC, SF or wherever the new frontier is.
3/18/2008: YEAH, Probably the 20th time I've Viewed the 'offering'..The Whole thing..came up off Garage band&iMOVIE! Hmmn. Nice Job!. This is Probably one, if Not THE Most Difficult Jn. Cipoliina Solo Runs! (aside from some o' the Stuff He did in "MAID of the CANCER MOON"). Gotta hand it to ya' (Qs Stellar Lemon),G.Duncan,D.Frieberg & Greg Ellmore -- SURE Could Benefit From a "B-12 Shot" in the ARM Like You!! Keep it Humble, PRACTICE,PRACTICE,you'll go far with That Voice & Superb Playin'!
Amazing version! happy trails, one of the all time greats. Still sounds so good even after 30 years. theres lots of talent around today, but where is the music to make it shine?
too cool. what made think to play a song this old and this cool? I have a 17 year old daughter who would never even listen to anything like this let alone thing of playing an instrument to it... Great job by the way...
Sitting in the Cipollina living room Christmas night, John's former manager pulled up this Youtube site and we all marveled at your playing. Dude! You REALLY rock!
Nice job man...That was a damn good cover. Back in my chopper days I saw 'em live. In those days, the underground rok'n roll gigs were way far out there. TinTop1948
This is fantastic. Did you play the bass on a bass or on a guitar and then pitch shift it? The Jesus and Mary Chain have an amazing version of this song, as well as an original called 'Bo Diddley is Jesus'. Great cover, keep it up.
Kid I LOVE YOU! Thanks for keeping the Spirit of a dear friend alive in sound; you sure got the right lookin guitar too! Izzat a Carvin, oh SG, i see!!! You sound great, and I should know.... John Lives ! Go for it hon, ya got a fan here, and do not be afraid to turn the mic up either, you sound really good. Big kuddos to YA, sure John is smilin at you from his heaven. I can tell. : )
Fantastic! Joihn Cipollina was one of the greatest guitarists, probably the best from San Francisco '67. You've obviously spent a long time listening and learning his style. It's great that you are keeping the flame burning.
BoyHowdy, absolutely stellar!! If I had to get rid of all my albums except one it would be Happy Trails. John would be proud to see his spirit is still shining after 40 years!! Now all you need to do is record the rest of the tune and post it!
You do not know how refreshing it is to hear and see somebody playing this great music! Thanks!
