NAMM 2015 in the Rear-View Mirror

My highlights from the big show

Here is just one of them, ace guitar player Larry Mitchell:

Larry Mitchell references Eric Johnson as a touchstone to his initial inspiration by Hendrix. The esteemed guitarist was interviewed at the recent NAMM show by Dylan Z. Gold for a Halstrom High School Honors project as a Public Service for the Jimi Hendrix Foundation.

Larry Mitchell first met Noë "the G" Gold in 1988 at a concert at New York's Limelight sponsored by Guitar World, Kramer Guitars and Steve Stevens. The Guitar World Founding Editor hosted the gig, which included a guitar contest judged by Steve Stevens and Billy Sheehan. The winner for the second consecutive year was … you guessed it … Larry Mitchell, enshrined forever in history with an appearance in Part II of the legendary Guitar World Unpublished Hendrix special issues.

And this was the backstory as reported by yours truly, shortly after the show wrapped:

How to Order Roy Buchanan Telly Talk DVD

In June of 1982, I was privileged to interview and record the Master of the Telecaster in a Master Class setting, a demonstration of his licks and tricks for players. Roy Buchanan was the sweetest man I had ever met – somewhat shy at the outset, but then he warmed to the situation and began to noodle around on a vintage Telecaster, showing off some badass playing and answering my questions about music and guitar lore.

The 30-minute DVD is available for $25 + $4 s&h = $29

KiddieBop harmonicas for "Doctor Noe" the G's Outschool Class

Keep watching this space, my harmonica workshop coming soon: “KiddieBop Harmonica Circle” ... as adapted from my Mission Harmonica Circle™ workshop.

The basics of playing the harmonica using popular tunes such as "Amazing Grace," the Beatles' "Love Me Do," "This Land Is Your Land." You will learn to express yourself on this simple instrument which is tons of fun, therapeutic, promotes great breathing techniques and is socially a crowd-pleaser.

For two years I taught a harmonica workshop for the City of Mission Viejo's Cultural Affairs department. See below, one of the courses in my Mission Harmonica Circle™ (Making Your World Better With Music ... and Harmonicas!), which I describe as a drum circle with harmonicas.

KiddieBop harmonicas

These KiddieBop harmonicas will be available before taking my course ($10 via PayPal to PayPal.Me/NoeGold/10) at my blog:

DoctorNoemedia.blogspot.com.

Course title: KiddieBop Harmonica Circle

Description: Ages 8 - 13 & 11 - 16

A weekly workshop for kids in the basics of playing the harmonica, using popular tunes such as "Amazing Grace," the Beatles' "Love Me Do," "This Land Is Your Land" and fun novelty tunes by Woody Guthrie, Doctor Demento and Jack Elliott in a communal "call and response" format, with audio-visual cues that teach a little bit about the social currents that are associated with the harmonica – the Civil War, the Dust Bowl and the Great Depression. We will also understand the notes and keys on the harmonica and the basics of playing along with a guitar or piano.

The class will be fun and playful in nature and by the end of the session kids will be total harmonicats and kitties.

“Doctor Noe” Gold, Headmaster of the College of Musical Knowledge and Mission Harmonica Circle™, is setting up a home-school music site using the harmonica as the benign yardstick on the international Outschool.com platform.

Stay tuned to my Mission Harmonica Circle™ FB page for details and leave me ideas of classes and how to get the word out.
