Eric Clapton – Cocaine

If you know Eric Clapton,you know Cocaine!The basic melody formed by just 2 chords(an E5 and a D5) on the guitar (Eric Clapton’s Fender Stratocaster!),with a slightly distorted sound,combined with the rhythm and the little solos in between and the big one at the end,create a perfect blues song!

Enjoy!

What this blog is all about?

Well,I can say that I have listened to many different kinds or sounds of music,the so-called “genres” of music.What I realized is that music is not about quantity,it is about quality,and that’s what you seek.However,each one of us favors a different kind of music,either because it is connected with our civilization,our culture,either because it just sounds good to our ears.

I understood that mainstream music (usually the commercial one),meaning music generally produced in order to sell more,appeals to the most people,and sounds good to our ears,to most of us,at least,but it lacks quality.(In general,commercial music is in the pop/rock and hip-hop genre.)

Now,what is quality?Quality in music,is not the same for all people.Each one of us,gives a different meaning to quality.Are the good vocals,solos,lyrics or melodies,for example,the quality factors?The factor or factors could be all of them,one or two of them,or none of them.You decide!That’s how we define music as “bad” or “good”,being always a personal opinion.

To conclude,in this blog,I will make suggestions about music that I like,music that I characterise as “good”,music that has quality for me,and have some general music “news”.Don’t expect to get suggestions about every genre,but I will try cover as many genres as I can(You can request for coverage though!).

Cheers!
