    @closertotheheart 9 років тому +86

    Don't want to sound like an old hater, but I miss these kinds of musicians' interviews in which they actually gave a bit of musical insight into their process ie their instruments, musical influences, etc. You can tell Keith is a real musician and not just a puppet who maybe collaborates on a concept and then let's a bunch of songwriters / producers do all the heavy work.

    • @HouseMDaddict
      @HouseMDaddict 9 років тому +3

      +Jasper Yangchareon well also so much crap is electronic now so most interviews wouldn't involve asking about the instruments because the answer would be "a computer" for a lot of them.

    • @muchomusiclibre
      @muchomusiclibre 9 років тому +3

      I don't think it's being a hater at all to point those out. Its not really about being a musician anymore like it was in the 60s and 70s, it's about how a person looks and musical ability is really second. That's just the way it's gone. The Beatles wouldn't even be given a chance now, they want Bieber looking guys to promote.

    • @luchadorito
      @luchadorito 9 років тому +2

      +muchomusiclibre well fuck me with a horseshoe but i must say it:
      the Beatles are a lot like Bieber or 1D! Yeah, they are ugly(unlike some members of 1D, dont ask me which one, i dont know) but nevertheless half of the Beatlemania was girs trying to screw them!
      But...but they are a lot better musicians!-you migh say...well if you say so. They aged to become good musicians(okay...Paul and George did at least) but the early Beatles songs and albums are nothing outstanding. As i said, Paul McCartney and George Harrison later became great musicians but John Lennon was a semi-talented asshole with a medium set of songwriting, piano and guitar skills, a good voice and a shit personality.

    • @luchadorito
      @luchadorito 9 років тому +1

      +HouseMDaddict dude. There are millions of great rock bands out today, they might be less faous than what they could have become a few decades ago but they exist! If you want talented people yapping about their guitars for hours, go check out any Jack White interview! Btw even electronic musicians(well...the better ones at least) use a lot of instruments. Check out The Glitch Mob's first album, Drink the Sea! At least the half of the things you hear is physical instruments. The band consists of 3 DJs, one of whom(the one named EDit) is a classical pianist and composer(and a good one i'd add), the other two started off as a bassist and a frummer if im not mistaken!

    • @HouseMDaddict
      @HouseMDaddict 9 років тому

      luchadorito I was talking more about the ones that just use a computer and sound like trash compacters and robots. I like and know about in the 80s the use of synths and electronic stuff, but it was like used in tandem with guitars and drums and real instruments.

    I honestly don't understand all the hate towards Jimmy Fallon. Granted, I'm fully aware of the concept of a try hard, but to me, he's never come off that way. He seems like a genuinely nice guy that just wants to put his guests at ease, and, in my personal opinion (Again: OPINION) he's one of, if not the best at interviewing musicians, especially ones like Keith and Paul McCartney. You can tell he has a sincere interest in their lives, roots, and inspirations, and to me, that's entirely commendable.

    • @rdgamers8695
      @rdgamers8695 8 років тому +2

      I absolutely agree with you, we can see him really genuine interest and have a bond to guests especially musicians like his last sentence here that he got into howlin wolf now because Keith and maybe that is why musician like paul McCartney and Billy Joel invite jimmy to be guests star in their concert
