SOFTOLOGY |
If you like Eye-Candy and enjoy creating eye-candy then you just have to download the most insane Fractal program ever. It's called 'Visions of Chaos' and it kicks-ass. It's the world of fractals and other wonderful toys made by 0's and 1's. Visions Of Chaos is a program that generates fractals, cellular automata, music and other chaos related simulations. It supports 2D and 3D displays as well as creating AVI in these formats. | |

JACO
PASTORIUS |
Being a bassist, I was totally unprepared the first time I heard Jaco on bass. The record was 'Heavy Weather' by Weather Report, and it blew me apart. View my 'tribute' page to Jaco. You can then jump to the official Jaco Pastorius site from there. |

CREAM
2005 |
What can I say about the first power trio. Wish I had been there! Special thanks to Matt for the pic - it's so good to see these guys in action together again. Taken at the 2nd Concert dated 3rd May 2005. Get the DVD - it's great. | |
|
AL
DI MEOLA |
There's heaps of great guitarists that have been, are, and will be but to me Al just makes the music sound so good. An extraordinary guitarist and composer that covers all types of music ranging from Jazz-Fusion-latin-world etc. | |
|
STEVE
HUNTER |
...And there's also a heap of great bassist's out there in the world today who know all the licks, chops etc and Steve here has all that - but he also has tons of 'Feel' in his playing and you can sense it when you see this guy on stage. A brilliant bassist and composer who has paid his dues with some top-name muso's. | |
|
STING |
Always enjoyed the music of Sting. From his days with the 'Police' when he wrote some 'commercial' gems and then to his solo albums, blending a rich mixture of pop-jazz. A great singer, muso and composer. | |
DAVE WECKL |
Mr. Orchestra of Drums I call Mr. Dave Weckl. Absolutely brilliant drummer. It's now three times that I have seen his band (Once with the Mike Stern band) and every concert had been mind-boggling. I promise never to tell 'drummer' jokes any more ;) Also check out Dave's long-time partner in groove, bassist Tom Kennedy, who floored me with his incredible technique and playing style. | |
|
JOHN
MCLAUGHLIN |
I always considered this genius about ten years ahead of everybody else when it came to creating and playing music on the guitar. One of the greatest. | |
|
TOMMY
EMMANUEL |
First time I saw Tommy Emmanuel was at the Musician's club way back last century and he was burning. One of Aussie's great guitar heroes. | |
|
JAMES
MULLER |
....And the new kid on the block - Brilliant guitarist that fits in all jazz modes. From 'Killer' to 'Laid back' James floors it. Do yourself a favour and catch him on the musical circuit if u can. | |
ERIC CLAPTON |
Wish I was a legend in my own lifetime! This guy just seems to be getting better and better every time I see him in concerts (DVD / TV)....and he was brilliant decades ago! | |
|
MIKE
STERN |
Got introduced to the music of Mike Stern when I went to see him at the Basement (Jazz Venue in Sydney, Australia) with Dave Weckl on drums a few years back. So if you're a budding guitarist check out his site and also visit the site of Pete Sklaroff, where you will find some great info and transcriptions of Mike Stern, plus aspects of jazz guitar theory. | |
|
STANLEY
CLARKE |
'Stan the Man' - Another brilliant bassist who was a driving force with Chick Corea in the 'Return To Forever' days. If you do not have his 'School Days' album do yourself a favour and get it. | |
|
ROY
ORBISON |
After watching the 'Black & White Night' on DVD and listening to the voice and the original innovative songs such as "In Dreams, Running Scared, Crying" and heaps of others I realized what a genius the 'Big O' was - but I always knew that anyhow. | |
|
STANLEY
KUBRICK |
One of my favorite directors - made some classics, not too many, but classics....and it seems that every generation has a Dr. Strangelove - or check out the full movie script from here. |

SOHO |
Some intelligent people put a big video camera between the earth and the sun (where gravity from the sun and the earth is equal) and keeps a constant eye on it. Making sure its not going to explode or something like that. | |
THE UNIVERSAL QUESTION |
Out of all the life forms on this planet why is it that a large population of humans (we call ourselves the most intelligent) still believe in fairy tales? | |
