@paullarnce2167منذ 3 سنوات Back in the 60-70's we modified our guitars to suite our tastes. We never dreamed these guitars would soar in value and become collectors items. 278

@sonofbarnseyمنذ 3 سنوات Bill didn't just play all the smoldering leads on Black Betty, but he came up with the revved up arrangement for it too. On top of singing it. The Ram Jam version is definitely his baby. 17

@ToadstoolShadowمنذ 3 سنوات In 2015, I interviewed Bill Bartlett for a Reverb article on Mosrite amplifiers, as he'd toured the Mosrite/Bakersfield factory when on tour with the id="hidden6" class="buttons"> Lemon Pipers in early 1968. He's a fascinating man with some fascinating musical memories. I recall him telling me the story of all the mods he did on the "Black Betty" Gibson, but did not take notes. He told me he wrote one of the "Black Betty" lyrical lines or couplets, but did not claim any of the copyright, which I think he should have. He told me of attending Syracuse University in 1962 and some of his later-to-be-famous classmates: Lou Reed (then playing in a band called LA and the El Dorados); Felix Cavaliere (later of the Young Rascals): and Mike Esposito (later of the Blues Magoos). Talent! ....وسعت 4

@alicewilson1913منذ 3 سنوات I like that this highlighted a heavily and uniquely modified guitar. I know collectors might look down on that, but when the work is done well I love mods id="hidden7" class="buttons"> like this, even more so when they're on vintage guitars. It could've just been another 50s goldtop sitting in a case collecting value and dust, now it's something totally unique and beautiful and I'm a big fan of that. ....وسعت 7

@mikewhitfield2994منذ 3 سنوات It was actually recorded by Bill Bartlett’s previous band, Starstruck. But that band had broken up before Bartlett landed a contract, so the label “helped” him form a new band and the Starstruck recording used on Ramjam’s debut album. Awesome song, and Bartlett’s solos should by rights get a lot more kudos. ....وسعت 8

@Jydmdمنذ 3 سنوات Ohhhh that's a great serie idea! I really love rig rundowns and things like that. When live shows were a thing, I always liked trying to guess what id="hidden20" class="buttons"> guitar models were using. Some tougher ones were Hedley's Dave Rosin blue strat with a transparent pickguard (it was a Warmoth build) and Simple Plan's David Desrosiers black and white Fender PJ bass (a Tony Franklin signature, with a pickup switch!). ....وسعت 1

I started a band a few months back with some older folks in their 50’s and 60’s (I’m 24) down in Miami and our keys player was married to the bass player of ram jam. Sadly he’s gone, but she told us tons of stories and that’s when I first heard this song. She’s one of girls on the motorcycles in the back throughout the music video. ....وسعت 2

@goss1961منذ 3 سنوات An idea for an episode.'where are they now?'
There are famous guitars that disappeared into secondhand-land and are now lost. Some, like id="hidden26" class="buttons"> Jim Hendrix's Flying V, were identified. But where is the red Telecaster Clapton used in the Yardbirds? And the semi bass played in the Yardbirds? The Gretsch hollowbody John Lennon used for Paperback Writer? The stripped natural Strat with the broken pickguard Jeff Beck used in the early 70s? Does Richie Blackmore still have the ES335 from the early Deep Purple days, and if not, where is it? ....وسعت 3
