Hey guys,
This thread reminded me a a chart I have that you might be interested in.
This is a composition by Joe DiOrio called, "Blues for Bela" - that's Bela Bartok, and obviously it's a bit outside.
Joe played this a few times for us at G.I.T. back in 1978-79, and my roommate, David Carlson from Sweden transcribed it. He then showed it to Joe who confirmed it was accurate. Then, for our GIT class of '79 graduation party, David and Joe got up and played it together. I think it was a highlight in David's life. Anyway, David shared his score with me, and now I'm sharing it with you.
Hope you like it. It's a bit bizarre, but the more you hear it, it grows on you. Enjoy!
Thanks for the Diorio stuff! BTW: For those of you the belong to eMusic, the "It's About Time" CD just became available a few weeks ago. However, in typical eMusic fashion, it is listed under Dom Moio (not Diorio!), who is a sideman on the album.
I was a '79-'80 grad of GIT. Joe was sporadically around and the only time we really got to see him play was when Pat Metheny came for a seminar and he and Joe played a few tunes. Watching them play made me realize how amazing Joe was, and also how good Metheny was. They killed it on standard tunes. Joe's an amazing person.
You guys beat me to Joe by a few years (GIT Class of 1987). Loved my time with Joe. He taught me one thing that has stuck with me all these years: "All's well that ends well". Great transcriptions. Thanks guys.
Ha! And I'll split the difference...GIT 1984. Joe was around once a week or so during my year...and he remains to this day one of my greatest musical heroes. I love his "To Jobim With Love" CD.
Joe has always been one of my favorites. He actually played with my uncle Wally Cirillo in the seventies. An album called solo duo. I met joe when I was 15 ...back in the seventies and studied with him briefly in Miami. I have studied his playing ever since...still learning...for me... the Coltrane of guitar...
Hmm… without never playing with it 7,2k pickup sounds more like brighter and less-bodied than ’mellow’. Based on mere numbers the normal ca. 8k Classics would have some mellowness and body.
But I...
Woland -
I was just wondering, after all our exertions, whether you'd sorted out how you play the bridge of this tune. Whether you'd found your answer, so to speak. That was the point of the...
I agree with the above post: my idea is that for a full warm creamy smooth twin reverb tone you have to push it just a step before it breaks up; to me its right volume level is between 5 and 6.

When I'm playing my TM Twin in a small room, I'm dialing the "Attenuator" selector down to max. 45W, better 22W and the vol. around 4-5.
It sounds different to max. power selection and the vol....
Hey there,
I'm quite intrigued by the Supro Amulet. A little tube amp, lightweight, with a 2 band EQ, reverb, tremolo, attenuator. Available with a 10" or 12" Celestion Creamback speaker. On the...
Great to hear that that you are still there! And sorry that you have not been able to contribute to some of the Peerless and general Korean guitar topics of late.
I look forward to you being here...
I have them now. They're on an Ibanez prototype that I bought from JazzKritter's daughter and I plan on keeping that guitar well played and cherished as a part of my history (JazzKritter and I both...
I used to have the big Headrush board, and what I would do in such a situation (aside from having a fixed global EQ) is to have a master parametric EQ on one of the knobs. Many boards (including the...
Has anyone played or had a Supro Amulet ?
