Anyone have their finger on the pulse of the state of indie music to the point of being able to explain why this album isn't a hit with publications the way it is for me? I listen to a lot of music, popular and otherwise and this album really was a home run for me. It's all based on opinion but what am I missing here?
Today American music producer Tim Pagnotta posted on his Instagram story “Jammin’ new @Weezer I worked on.”
So why does this mean a single imminent by the end of September?
Yesterday it was revealed that there’s job openings for a Weezer music video that involves going to a party and skateboarding. The deadline for this job opening is September 2nd.
What else happened yesterday? Rivers posted on his snapchat story requesting ideas for the album cover artwork for Van Weezer. Now it’s obvious he doesn’t need our ideas as he doesn’t make the art— people at Crush labels do. So it was an obvious tease.
High As A Kite’s music video was recorded a week before it was released. That leads me to believe that it shouldn’t take long at all for a single to be released for Van Weezer. Given that also in interviews Brian has said that Crush are really pushing for this album to come out.
That’s it for now, but what do you think? I think the clues are bright as ever. We will get a new single soon: by the end of September.
PS: is Tim Pagnotta a good producer? What has he made? What do you expect from him working with Weezer?
#74 Ritchie Blackmore/Deep Purple - Lazy https://youtu.be/KfU_6jFrroE
From the moment Jimi Hendrix died in 1970, until around 1978 when Eddie Van Halen exploded on the scene, there was arguably no greater, innovative and technically brilliant a hard rock guitar player alive than Ritchie Blackmore. Blackmore was the king of hard rock guitar throughout much of the seventies. Weaving blues licks with a heavy classical influence he created a sound that was all his own and would influence many a guitar player to follow in his wake.
Most notably would be Yngmie Malmsteen. Malmsteen idolized Blackmore, going so far as to copy his classical approach to hard rock guitar (albeit upping the classical quotient substantially), copying his guitar (The Strat) and scalloping his fretboard the same way Blackmore did it. Unknown to Blackmore at the time of course, he was the pioneer of a whole new genre of guitar music, neo-classical. I would classify him as the first real guitar shredder.
Blackmore studied classical guitar as a youngster and felt that it was a natural fit to his hard rock soloing style. Sure there were other great guitarists during the seventies, but few (if any) were on a level technically with Blackmore. Plus Blackmore had nothing to hide behind in those days. He had his Strat, his Marshall Plexi (some say a Vox AC30) cranked to 10 and a Treble booster. That's it. His distortion came from sheer volume so he had no artificial distortion to cover any inadequacies in his playing (not that he had any). He had to play clean and he was one of the cleanest smoothest guitar players ever to strap one on.
Sadly he's spent the past number of years doing midieval minstrel folk music with his hippy dippy Stevie Nicks wanna be wife. Come back to the light Richie! We miss you.
The solo:
The opening solo for Lazy is probably his greatest recorded solo IMO. Lazy is basically a hard rock blues number. Mostly (with a couple of exceptions) sticking to the F minor pentatonic scale, Blackmore steals a few BB King licks to get the solo rolling and then unleashes 100% Blackmore in the second half. Hard rock blues licks laced with classical sounding ligato, hammer ons and pull offs, bends galore, and it's bloody fast as lightning. I've said it before and I'll say it again, bending a note to pitch is not all that hard, but doing it over and over again dozens of times within a solo and nailing ever one, is a different story altogether. It's fucking hard as balls. I used to

I get wanting to explore with new musicians but that never seemed to be the case. It always looked as though they just had a genuine issue working with anyone for long periods of time. The impression I get from the countless amounts of interviews on the subject is that all four original members where completely traumatized by the split and some of the years leading up to it, and like the drugs they all reacted to that trauma in different ways. Do you think that might have something to do with it? What are your theories?
After some hours of fiddling I'm turning to you reddit.
So in column A I have a list of words within a cell. I'm looking to find one word (ie banana) in the list within one cell (A1). If the word is there AND if the number 1 is in B1 then it'll formulate a 1 in C1.
Sometimes banana isn't in A1's list but B1 has the number 1 (needs to result as 0) and sometimes banana is in A1's list but B1 has a 0 (needs to also result as 0)
Also, in a different formula, if I need to find two words in cell A1 (banana or apple)
Note: I'm only using 1 and 0s
I hope I make sense Thank you for helping this excel formula newbie
