I straddle both camps. i must confess that as a kid and learning musician I was weaned on those "masturbatory" self indulgent jams. When I saw the dead live in 69 and 70 It took what cream did and stood it on its head. All these things are in context. I was also in awe of the depth of emotion revealed by the lack of notes in "Love That Burns" There may be a reason why Rattlesnake Shake was so named. Peter is both of those things and was a master at both. It does not take away from either side. It just makes his life that much more inegmatic. I will say however that of all the things he has done, The Gass stuff is not on my top ten list. I like the Memphis Slim stuff more. In this he was replacing Matt Murphy and chose to be different and play with a wah wah. Memphis Slim was also a control freak and The suite is like his autobiography or something. a concept record. This is peter doing what was suggested that he be good at. "A session Man". I guess this did not hold his interst for long in the early 70s. doodyhead |

And to tell you the truth, I also listen more to his "songs" than to his "jams" ... it depends on the mood and everything.... I also agree that some of those Madge jams sometimes turn out a bit......(can't find a right word) But I just thought you meant that Peter was no good at jamming. Which, by the way, would have been alright with me! And quite a cool thing to say at this forum! |
