    So glad you ended with the outro to Jimi's Bold As Love!!! It sounds like the whole band is going through a flanger! One of my other favorite flanger moments is the intro to House Burning Down on Electric Ladyland, sounds like the guitar is on fire.

  • @SLASHERHEATH

    Such a classy way to close the video! It really was eye-opening to see that all these great songs used this effect (spare me, I've hardly ventured into the world of pedals!), but was pleasantly surprised and especially blown away by Bold as Love; that ending solo is a special kind of euphoric and I feel that the song as a whole deserves more love, so you're awesome for sharing it!
    Also hope the vocals stick around in your videos.

    Several moments on Duster's "Stratosphere" album have ear-gasmic flanger usage (The Queen of Hearts, Landing, etc). The guitar playing on that album is simply gorgeous, and who knows exactly what set-up they had when recording it but whatever they did, the tones they achieve throughout that album are jaw-dropping.

  • @winterland3253

    The "And the Cradle Will Rock" intro was actually recorded on a Wurlitzer electric keyboard pushed through a flanger and then through Eddie's Marshall. But still an awesome video. Some of these songs I've never head of and will probably check out.

  • @gunnerjohnson5445
    @gunnerjohnson5445 4 роки тому +4

    Thanks for the upload! Flanger is really weird isn't it? Barracuda is the one song that justifies the use of this effect in my unhumble opinion. Phaser, reverb, chorus, or distortion are all very useful. Still the flanger in the Eddie van Halen song markets this effect in the same way as Barracuda. An engine / motor /rolling / chugging sound. Which indeed is cool. Now I am more comfortable with flanger an I can probably make use of it. Make a new song, call it: "Down the track". Or "Manhunt ". Or "Hemi 64".

    MXR Flanger, one of the most underrated effects of all time. It's so much more
    versatile than a chorus, while it still can do that well. My rig for many years was
    a Rivera-built Fender Concert (1982, one 12") combo with a REAL Echo-Plex
    and an MXR Flanger. All I needed, especially in the 80's and up to the mid 90's.
