Creation Posted December 10, 2009 (edited) Speaking of enlightened guitar playing IAjNJVZ1npI Sorry if that's cliche, but I still think many of those videos are amazing and that is my personal favorite (Kaizokuou ftw!). Here is a fun Larry Carlton (jazz fusion guitarist) cover. I find it very relaxing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTS8187NQ6w Edited December 11, 2009 by Creation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

soaring crane Posted December 10, 2009 Watermelon In Easter Hay I mean, if you like enlightented guitar solos. or, if you just want the best possible musical companion for your Qigong: Buedi Siebert, Wave Hands Like Clouds Ok, "best" was ironically meant, but the CD remains my favorite after about six or seven years of listening to it. I have a LOT of meditation CDs (as do all of you), and have yet to come accross another one like this. Very unobtrusive and supportive, it draws no attention to itself, it just gives you nice floor to stand on. Doesn't work for Yoga, though, according to Yoga-teacher friend of mine - too Chinese, she says. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harold Posted December 10, 2009 Hello,and thanks for bringin Frank Zappa in! The best music I like when doing my Qigong is the same kind of music I always like. After long time practicing in the countryside without sound in stillness I come to the conclusion that silence is the most enlightened music-as anything is contained within it. I`m also a musician ,and many masters have compared the internal arts training with learning any musical skill,like pianoplaying or something. But I guess learning one skill must not necessarily help learning anotherone... otherwise I would be further Concerning crispness,clarity of expression and power one of my favorites are still the guys from Canada, by the name nomeansno Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Birch Posted December 11, 2009 Ralis, Your guitar guy was more manly than my guitar guy. I didn't like the squeaky vocals. There's a cool book out there http://www.yourbrainonmusic.com/ and I'm sure Drew would have something to say about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's a cool book out there http://www.yourbrainonmusic.com/ and I'm sure Drew would have something to say about it. Which guitar player are you referring to? The video I posted was more about Joe Bonamassa's guitar style than his vocals. Lot's of different influences from Hendrix to Robin Trower et al in that piece. My guitar teacher told me that piece was all improvised. That is impressive! My goal is to play as well as him. Maybe next lifetime! ralis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I always feel like he spent so much of his efforts supressing his wispier emotions, his love, but it all came out when he plugged in his guitar and just let it sing, and even cry. A great example, out of thousands: Black Nakkins And I think you're right that silence is the most enlightened music. youtube embedment experiment: _c-NMnYhM3Q edit: "FZ has his little way with the guitar", wishful thinking.
