Nels Cline: Musical Life in Five Riffs

[Kerouac]

You can really see how big of an influence Marquee Moon had on him.

The most interesting man in the world.

Cool vid.

That was fun.

I went to some concert in the 90s where someone was passing out CDs on the street outside. I took one, it was Thurston Moore and Nels Cline. I didn't know who Nels was at the time and probably never listened to the CD. I just pulled it out a couple of years ago. Interesting experimental guitar stuff, but kind of sucks. I will hang on to it though. I love Nels playing, but whatever that project was with Thurston, it didn't really pan out.

Now I really want a 12 string.

I'd love a JJ 12er, but that price stings.

Thanks for sharing. I appreciated Nels' thoughtful and articulate discussion about the music that inspired him.

Does something like that belong on an Interwebz forum?

I would like an old Yamaha one. A well set up, well used one with a few cosmetic dings would be fine.

What great song choices. Classic stuff that isn't what most people would think of.
I also have 12 string electric GAS. I used to have an amazing sounding '60's 335 12-string, but the neck was never quite right on that thing. I sold it to buy my first good drum set.
