guitarist at the international music exhibition NAMM 2017, pavilion Guitar World. Russian guitarists - Russian guitars :)
It's a tough world starting out in music world, no sellout concerts, no number ones, no awards, not even a band, just you & the guitar, strumming on a city street, hoping some coins flipping your way.
I brought this photo forward today, for the day that was in it, a sad day in music world, the death of S Club 7 star Paul Cattermole who died at the age of 46.
In a world of sugar pop of the 90's, its wasn't all glamour & riches.
Rest in peace Paul Cattermole.

P. 165 "Do You Know This Face? Then you know THIS Face. ... You know Roger Mayer's Classic Fuzz, the very same fuzz distortion circuit that Roger designed for Jimi Hendrix during his tenure as the master's sound technician ..." This is one of the ads I published in numerous music magazines of the mid-'80s in which I touted my Guitar Galaxy mail-order company. Guitar Galaxy continues to flourish today!

JIMI HENDRIX - VARIATIONS ON A THEME: RED HOUSE
Title: Red House
Format: CD with inserts and jewel case
Country: USA
Label: Hal Leonard Publishing / Are You Experienced Ltd.
Catalog Number: -
Condition: Mint-
Synopsis: Jimi Hendrix came from the blues. As a young man on the
demanding Chitlin' circuit, Jimi began to explore his roots in the blues. He
became a student of the urban electric blues of Buddy Guy, Muddy
Waters, Howlin' Wolf, and John Lee Hooker; the acoustic Delta blues of
Robert Johnson, Son House, and Charlie Patton; and the blues-influenced
jazz of Charlie Christian and Wes Mongtomery.
As he got deeper into the blues, he began to open up the parameters of
the music and take it further and further out. From the beginning, "Red
House" was his blues-based anthem, which he performed, like a true
bluesman, differently each time. Though there are six Hendrix
performances of the song, astute listeners will note that each is an entirely
unique approach to the twelve bar form. For guitar players and non-playing
music fans alike, we are assembled this collection so they can learn from
the master. As you listen to version after version of "Red House", the
astounding talents of this ultimate blues man will reveal themselves to you.

JIMI HENDRIX - RED HOUSE 7 VERSIONS LIVE J L HOOKER
I've had this in my collection for a while. I used to play electric guitar and
enjoyed reading and learning about playing through guitar instructional
books, sheet music, and anything usual in that section of the music store.
I came across this CD almost 12 years ago. It is highly usual in that it was
published by a sheet music company, so it has no catalog number or UPC
code. However it collects 6 different live versions (official of course) of Jimi
Hendrix playing Red House, including an instudio rendition done by THE
MAN, John Lee Hooker!
... also thought you should know that yours truly Doctor Noe aka Noe the G under his own Guitar Galaxy shingle did a historic interview with Roy Buchanan, Master of the Telecaster and it's on a DVD called Roy Buchanan Telly Talk.
Roy Buchanan was interviewed by Noe Gold
and photographed by John Peden

Richard Smith, author of "Fender - the sound heard around the world" now works for the Fullerton Museum Center 301 N. Pomona Ave, Fullerton Ca. 92832 (714) 738-6545. He always has an exhibit on Fender but for 2008-10 there is a new exhibit on the Telecaster. The gala opening of the exhibit, entitled “Solid Design: Leo Fender’s Telecaster” was March 22, 2008 7-10 p.m., and the exhibit will run through Fall, 2010.
From the exhibit catalog: “In early 1949 Leo Fender started seriously designing a standard guitar model for his Fine Line of Fender Electric Instruments. At first the guitar was called the Esquire, then the Broadcaster and finally the Telecaster. Sixty years later it is one of the most popular guitars in the world, an instrument built for working men and women musicians who defined the blues, country and pop styles.
“’Solid Design: Leo Fender’s Telecaster’ will showcase this instrument, the first commercially successful solidbody electric guitar, an instrument that changed music history. Numerous examples from the early years will be on display. There will also be a noticeable celebrity component in the images and presentation, including Telecasters once owned by stars. The exhibit points to players such as George Harrison, Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, Roy Buchanan, James Burton, Don Rich and Mike Bloomfield. These musicians—Tele players all—created some of the most potent music imaginable.”
Among the Roy B. artifacts are his guitar called “Nancy,” which we immortalized in a special Collector’s Choice centerfold of Guitar World magazine. In a spotlight area of the exhibit are some of the Roy Buchanan “Telly Talk” footage and copies of the DVD are in the bookstore gift shop. Guitar Galaxy is planning a special “Director’s Cut” documentary edition of the DVD, which will have more photos like the one at left and photographic details (not footage, ’cause that’s all he wrote) about Nancy and the photo spread we shot for Guitar World on that occasion, as well as personal testimony from some Tele players such as Jeff Beck, Robbie Robertson, Seymour Duncan and others who were touched by or intimate with Roy.
Featured on a monitor throughout the night was the documentary by Noe Gold and John Peden, "Roy Buchanan Telly Talk." A full-on "director's cut" documentary version of "Telly Talk" is in the works.

Noë Gold Chats With Kelly Z about ‘Hendrix Now’ (The Hendrix Backstory)
JIMI HENDRIX, the greatest guitarist – possibly the greatest musician – of all time. Do YOU love Jimi as much as I do? His story has a lot to say to all generations about life, music and spirit and that is what I undertook when I became the Creative Director of the Jimi Hendrix Foundation, and before that, Editorial Director of the Hendrix Estate under the supervision of the late Alan Douglas, curator of Jimi Hendrix' recorded music and video. First and foremost, I am a storyteller. As a veteran music and entertainment journalist going back to my stint as the Founding Editor of Guitar World and editor at Crawdaddy, that is what I do. One story that I have been known for telling and re-telling to the point of obsession is that of Jimi Hendrix.
… and the entire project is explained on my Kickstarter campaign, which was successfully launched to celebrate Jimi Hendrix' birthday November 27, Thanksgiving Day in the U.S. See the video at this link:

This is my Shoreline Gold Strat, serial #4507, with black pickguard, DiMarzio pickups and a Floyd Rose with gold hardware and the sweetest unfinished-maple thin neck. It was built for me by Grover Jackson in the early '80s before Jackson was an official company and just a side project of Grover's while he was running Charvel. I was the editor of Guitar World at the time and I visited with Grover at the shop in Azusa, which was a very funky place.
My sweet Charvel Strat originally came with a white pickguard and Seymour Duncans, but Roger Sadowsky, a New York City luthier, set up the guitar for me with the black pickguard and DiMarzio pickups it sports to this day.
Jackson was essentially the pioneer of the "Superstrat" design, but this model predated even those. It had a full Stratocaster-shaped body with a bolt-on neck. This was before Fender began cracking down on supposed imitators of their patented designs, going so far as to induce customs agents to cut off the headstocks of guitars that came into U.S. ports from Japan, Mexico, etc.
Note that in addition to the serial #4507, the Neck plate (circa 1982) is stamped "San Dimas, CA. 91773 USA."
Ironically, today there is a new-old notion of "Fake Charvels." The collectible status and escalating market prices of 1970s-80s U.S.-made Charvels have spawned a rash of fake 'San Dimas' Charvels, many of which conspicuously appear in online auction listings or elsewhere, and are misrepresented as genuine originals. These fakes are often created by swapping necks and/or "San Dimas" stamped neck plates onto Asian-made Charvels or other inexpensive guitars, and completing the project with a reproduction San Dimas-era "Charvel - Made in USA" headstock decal.
In recent years, the problem has become widespread enough such that it remains a frequent topic of discussion amongst knowledgeable collectors of San Dimas-era Charvel guitars. Some fakes are convincing enough such that independent, expert confirmation is strongly recommended before considering the purchase of an instrument claimed to be original San Dimas-era Charvel.
Opening Night Gala for two exhibits, including a NEW exhibit in the Leo Fender Gallery! On view through 2010: “Solid Design: Leo Fender’s Telecaster” and the current exhibit in the main gallery “The Delta Blues Project.” It was an evening celebrating music, art, and everything in between with some smokin' ribs flown in from down south and a bitchin' blues-based set by local favorite Kid Ramos.
The exhibit is featured in Noe the G's teaser trailer for the Roy Buchanan Telly Talk DVD here ...

From an article in The Hollywood Reporter
This is from a hardhat tour I took of the Experience Music Project in Seattle as it was nearing completion April, 2000.
Note the Guitar World Special Issue Sept. 1985, edited by yours truly, Noë the G.
I wrote about it in this article, which was syndicated by the BPI Newswire but has somehow disappeared from cyberspace. Now it's back.
Experience This / A first look at Paul Allen's ambitious rock'n' roll temple
The Hollywood Reporter
June 13, 2000
By Noë Gold
All photos by Noë Gold
The high walls of the Sky Church are rumbling, literally shaking with a presence that is not of this Earth.
On the physical plane, the cavernous exhibition hall sits in Seattle, a few yards from the terminus of the monorail that links the city's downtown to its monolithic Space Needle.
On the spiritual plane, Jimi Hendrix, the avatar of guitar-driven rock 'n' roll who first asked "Are You Experienced?" is very much in the house -- a gleaming, new house that media mogul Paul G. Allen has built to honor popular American music.
The Sky Church is the spiritual centerpiece of the soon-to-open Experience Music Project, a massive museum designed by famed architect Frank O. Gehry to enclose 140,000 square feet of free-flowing, music-related exhibits on a 35,000 square-foot plot of land carved out of the city's once-grand Seattle Center.
The references to the Seattle-born Hendrix are intentional. The museum's mission, its founders say, is to have people experience the music. Come June 23, the first paying guests will find out what's going on inside the twisted, sky blue and magenta-hued piece of architecture that has been under construction since 1997.
The Sky Church concept is taken from one of Hendrix's dreams, in which he described a place where all diverse people could come together to appreciate music. The space fulfills Hendrix's prophecy by doubling as a grand exhibition hall by day and a performance space at night.
The EMP itself can be described as a museum with aspects of a theme park, through which people will take a "ride" amid the cultural artifacts that celebrate the blues-based, soul-inflected, rockabilly roots of American music.
More than 800,000 are expected to visit the nonprofit facility each year, with top ticket prices set at $19.95.
The museum opens with a party that will include musical performances by James Brown, Metallica, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Eminem and Snoop Dogg, Alanis Morissette, Eurythmics and Bo Diddley. MTV and VH1 will televise much of the hoopla.
Jody Patton, the EMP's co-founder and executive director and Allen's sister, dates the museum's genesis to 1992, when she and her brother attended a Sotheby's auction of rock 'n' roll memorabilia.
"Paul was intrigued by the artifacts," she says, "and we did the bidding. When the pieces arrived, we gingerly unpacked these things and we were in awe of how the spirit of the person who used them becomes imbued in the personal article. Paul said, 'If I think this stuff is really neat, then other people will be moved as well.'"
In Allen's longhair days, he played a Fender guitar. The obsession continues, except today Allen owns the Stratocaster that Hendrix played at Woodstock in 1969. And a whole lot of other stuff -- 80,000 artifacts, in fact, now reside here. More than 1,200 of them will be on display at at any given time.
The EMP's Hendrix Gallery enshrines the contract signed by the musician for Woodstock, revered objects of Hendrix's outrageous clothing and Allen's version of pieces of the cross: fragments of a guitar Hendrix smashed and burned at 1967's Monterey International Pop Festival.
The Guitar Gallery gives museum-style prominence to artifacts of rock like an early electric lap steel guitar, a Gibson Flying V prototype and axes played by the likes of the Byrds' Roger McGuinn and bluesman Tampa Red. There is a trumpet from Quincy Jones' early days in Seattle and song lyrics by another Seattlite, the late grunge rocker Kurt Cobain. Bob Dylan's harmonica and Janis Joplin's pants are there, too.
A recent hard-hat tour reveals EMP is no mere memorabilia collection. Flat-screen monitors and interactive displays are everywhere. A snaking corridor leads to the "Crossroads" exhibit, the main exhibition area, where disparate musicians like Hendrix, hip-hop and Bing Crosby meet via multimedia.
Patrons can also wander into hands-on personal studios, where they can try their hands at keyboards, drums and guitars.
The facility is truly wired, with organizers especially proud of the flooring itself, a raised platform made of modular concrete slabs that can be removed and bolted down to give technicians access to miles of high-definition optical cable and ISDN lines.
Via a modular data processing unit called a MEG, visitors can zoom in on various exhibits and receive data about what they are seeing. They can then download bookmarks that may be accessed later.
In researching his designs for the building, Gehry visited a music store and looked at guitars, bringing some home and deconstructing them. "It's not supposed to be a smashed-up guitar," says EMP's design and construction project manager, Paul Zumwalt, who created the Portland Trail Blazers' Rose Garden basketball arena, another Paul Allen edifice. "It's about the spirit of the music, with its flow and movement."
Originally, the monorail was supposed to stop short of the building. But when Gehry saw that the monorail bisected the site, he began to play.
Allen and his sister wanted an architectural design that "could literally express the way we respond to the music." And the music she was describing is anything but conventional. Allen used the word "swoopy."
Swoopy is what they got. There is not a right angle in the place. Neighbors who watched the building come together were mystified by what looked like a jumble of curved metallic sections reaching up into the sky.
"What appealed to me about Frank," Patton says of the architect," was his commitment to exploring the process. ... His designs go to a new place aesthetically -- the curves. It is a living, moving, organic thing."
Kind of like Electric Ladyland.

This time we’re going full BOSS with a tribute BCB-90X pedalboard made of 605 pieces (thanks to guitarworld.com for giving me the idea) This board comes fully stocked with 8 BOSS pedals. An EQ-20 Advanced EQ, PH-1r Phaser, TU-3 Chromatic Tuner (upgraded versions from my previous pedal board), SD-1 Super Overdrive, RC-1 Loop Station, GT-1000CORE Guitar Effects Processor, Waza Craft DM-2W Delay and FS-7 Dual Footswitch.
As with my previous effects pedalboard this is precisely scaled to the Lego Fender set and contains sockets to connect to your guitar and amp and truly crank it up to 12!

Albert King a couple years before I met him in Memphis with Jim Dickinson and Joe Walsh. Early '80s I think. I was on a mission from Alan Douglas and what was then the Hendrix estate to record a version of Red House.
