[Peter Frampton has still got it!]

It's called a talk box. The sound comes out of the guitar to the electronics box at the base of the tube, then travels up to his mouth, where he manipulates it to sound like words. Basically, the guitar serves as his vocal chords, and the rest is just like talkin.

Joe Walsh, Slash, Richie Sambora are some of the other more prominent players that use one.

Those Shoes, by the Eagles is a talk box masterpiece.

Yes, i love Joe Walsh's use of it. Thanks, I always wondered how that worked.

Frankly, i'm really tired of hearing it on Do You Fell Like We Do. I love the end solo on it, but the middle section is so boring and repetetive after about a minute.

[The Who Thread]

A well established Hendrix played Woodstock in 1969, you're probably thinking of Jimi's Monterey Pop festival appearance a few years prior.

The Monkees/Hendrix pairing was a mistake no doubt.

That's it. I always mix the two festivals up. Considering both of them are a good 40 years older than I am...

I'm just trying to imagine the shock experienced by people showing up for the Monkees and being killed by Hendrix first thing

[Zeppelin Mysteries Hosted by Steve A. Jones]

SteveAJones, forgive if you've said it before, but where the hell do you find all this stuff?

and here's a question that seems to be on-topic:

Has Jimmy Page ever been quoted or asked about his flamboyant (amazing) wardrobe? I'm curious to know more about that. Few, if any, other artists can look that part he did.

[The Who Thread]

That same year Jimi Hendrix open for The Monkees.

that was before Hendrix became a superstar after woodstock

[The Who Thread]

I saw The Who in 1967, opening for Hermans Hermits.

The last time I saw the Who was when they first toured after John died. It seemed then as if most people there were only familiar with the songs that are played on classic rock radio.

why in hell were the who OPENING for herman's hermits??!?! that ain't right,.

[What's the Last Concert You Attended?]

I saw Rush in Atlanta. It was an amazing show. Funny, too.

[Peter Frampton has still got it!]

Yeah, Humble Pie is him at his best. A radio station in atlanta called The River (97.1) overplays so many songs like that, and i got sick of frampton comes alive. I'm really sick of the tube synth thing, and i think he uses that so much it distracts from his talent as a rock guitarist.

[On the Radio]

in Atlanta we now have an amazing station known as Rock 100.5

we have other stations that play Led Zepp, but not as much, and they always play the same freakin' songs...

Rock 100.5 has played:

-When The Levee Breaks

-Stairway to Heaven

-Whole Lotta Love

-All My Love

-D'yer Mak'er

-Good Times Bad Times

-Ramble On

-Black Dog

-Rock n Roll

-others i think, but im not sure.

they are the only station i've ever heard play Levee Breaks

Also, I have heard The Max Wienberg 7 (Conan Obrien) play Dancing Days, and Misty Mountain Hop, after which Conan would say "get the led out" before continuing the show.

[Zeppelin Mysteries Hosted by Steve A. Jones]

Here's some trivia for you

He played that set without a plectrum

I'll bet ya 20$ he got plectrum-less playing from Jeff Beck, who rarely uses a pick. They were long-time buddies.
