Nie wiem czy czytaliście na sofasound.com co Hammill myśli o swoim prezencie.
"
Now, of course, I've now reached the Senior Rail Card age of 60...but I've no inclination to stop hitting the boards or pounding the key/fretboards yet. The fact that I've passed this milestone and along the way have now been a musician for 40 years as well didn't escape the notice of the Yahoo! discussion group dedicated to ph/vdgg stuff.
Some of this group decided to mark the occasion by clubbing together to get me a present ("I'll take the gold watch &c...") and so, a couple of days after my birthday and by a somewhat circuitous but highly coincidental route, a new Hagstrom guitar came into my hands. Now this is the kind of thing which, even with the best of intentions, can go quite badly wrong for one reason or another. In this case, though, I have to say that the guitar is a fine one and I've received it with due humility, respect and understanding of what a complicated process must have been gone through to get it to me at all. As yet I don't know if I'll be playing it live and as yet I haven't recorded with it. But that's partly because it still sits in the very odd tuning in which it arrived with me, which is not one in any guitarist's book, nor one I've ever publicly owned to using to my best knowledge - but which, nonetheless, is the tuning in which I wrote "Solitude" all those years ago and which I'd forgotten until now."
Mnie właśnie najbardziej interesowało czy na najbliższych koncertach będziemy mieli okazję usłyszeć\zobaczyć nową gitarę. Jak się okazuje tak się najprawdopodobniej niestety nie stanie (głównie ze względu na to, ze nic na niej jeszcze nie nagrywał i na "dziwne" strojenie)
Na podobnym strojeniu napisał Solitude, może dzięki temu będziemy mogli w przyszłości na koncertach solo usłyszeć właśnie ten utwór?
