Re: Jimi

["Stephen P. Goodman" <spgoodman@earthlight.net>]

Nah, that's like saying that artists in the past 15 years have been as
ground-breaking as Hendrix was.  You said it yourself, it's a hype process
that claims that its progenitors have fallen from the skies, yes?  Doesn't
mean it's actually the case in the least.  A sampled guitar isn't a guitar.
One plays a guitar - one can only "play" a sample in the conceptual sense.
This doesn't mean there isn't creativity involved, to avoid the obvious 
flak
from this.  But it's like comparing a 7.2 quake with a 4.1 - there's a
noticeable difference.  Doesn't mean they weren't both earthquakes, but 
hey!
If you'd never felt a 7.2 before and moved to CA right before experiencing 
a
4.1, which would you count as the most dramatic?  The one people were
telling you about, or the one you went through yourself?  Perspective,
again, ahenh.
