Blues Talk Not long ago we announced a brand new feature at Vision Music. Just Guitar Talk was the first of many planned MP3 "jukebox" pages, designed for both your listening and educational pleasure. The fan response was excellent, and that led to a sequel.
Not long ago we announced a brand new feature at Vision Music. Just Guitar Talk was the first of many planned MP3 "jukebox" pages, designed for both your listening and educational pleasure. The fan response was excellent, and that led to a sequel.
More Guitar Talk was the logical follow-up, another unique page sporting an mp3 audio player and several track selections, picked according to the theme for that page. Still Talkin' was next, then Fresh Talk, and our latest Blues Talk completes the current collection. To check it out, click here. Enjoy!

Question Mark... What Is Technical Mastery? Contrary to what some believe, technical mastery in music has almost nothing to do with sheer speed or physical strength, because those traits are utterly meaningless by themselves. What good is it if you can play fast yet have little to say? This is all too often the case with many players, especially guitarists. True technical mastery is when an artist achieves a balance in being able to communicate by effectively executing what they hear, regardless of complexity. In that sense, B.B. King, often thought of as a simple player, is just as much a master technician as someone like George Benson.
