The Critic Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Found this on another board that I frequent, and it's kind of unbelievable. Plus, the guy kinda looks like Jason Mewes, so that just added to my enjoyment. http://www.fuzzlepop.com/media/armless-guitar-player.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlaSoxxJim Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Here's a link to probably the same guy Pretty impressive. Yep. looks like Jay alright. Which is kind of funny because you'f think the guy with no arms would be bob, but maybe that's just if he's floating in water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSo Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I could do that but I don't wanna. Seriously, that is amazing. I don't know how he gets full chord sounds with just his feet. Never underestimate human potential where there is a lot of time on one's hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was sure it had to be a non-standard tuning, but looking at it closely I don't think so. It basically looks like the fretboard-as-keyboard approach that Jeff Healy takes playing his lap-style guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he chose a lot of material that worked with his limited vocal range and style. I was a bit of a fan during the late 70s early 80s.

Kid Gleason Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 Petty was good until he got all "folky". When he was all about Rock, I liked him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was inevitable that he would get all folkey with Mike Campbell pretty much being a Roger McGuinn clone. I really think that worked well in the early Heartbreakers stuff (big fan), but it became too easy and formulaic to just rehash the old Byrds sound rather than write material on par with with the first couple of Heartbreakers releases. I don't hate all the newer stuff. But what I've heard off the most recent album sure sounds recycled and lifeless to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
