Slide Guitar
Slide guitar is a technique for playing the guitar that is often used in blues music. It involves playing a guitar while holding a hard object (a slide) against the strings, creating the opportunity for glissando effects and deep vibratos that reflect characteristics of the human singing voice. It typically involves playing the guitar in the traditional position (flat against the body) with the use of a slide fitted on one of the guitarist's fingers. The slide may be a metal or glass tube, such as the neck of a bottle. The term bottleneck was historically used to describe this type of playing. The strings are typically plucked (not strummed) while the slide is moved over the strings to change the pitch. The guitar may also be placed on the player's lap and played with a hand-held bar ( lap steel guitar). Creating music with a slide of some type has been traced back to African stringed instruments and also to the origin of the steel guitar in Hawaii. Near the beginning of ...

Joyce Kennedy (singer)
Joyce "Baby Jean" Kennedy (born 1948) is an American singer raised in Chicago. Early life and career Joyce Kennedy was born in Anguilla, Mississippi, in 1948.

Her stay in Mississippi allowed her to enjoy the company of her family. In an interview done by the Jungle Room, Kennedy recalled how her grandmother would play the piano and sing throughout their home and while cousins would play their instruments by ear. Music was a recurring theme in the Kennedy household. After the death of her grandfather when she was 7, Kennedy moved to Chicago with her mother. It was there she began her singing career. In 1963, Joyce released her first single. With the help of Andre Williams, she recorded her first ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
