Andy Timmons 新专辑 Resolution
期待呀~~~
![]()
Coming Soon - "Resolution"
“Tone, control, and sheer beauty in an extraordinary rock capacity. He is truly one of the best virtuosos of rock guitar alive.” - Steve Vai, President, Favored Nations LLC
Andy Timmons just may be the most versatile guitarist in the world. As guitarist for pop-metal band Danger Danger until 1993, Andy toured the world opening for Kiss and Alice Cooper, sold over a million records worldwide, and had two #1 videos on MTV, plus amassing a discography that includes 6 solo releases ranging from blazing guitar instrumentals, to blues, and even a Beatles/Elvis Costello-inspired collection of pop tunes. As a session player, he’s been highly featured on CD’s by drumming legend Simon Phillips, a live CD with Olivia Newton-John (Andy has been her music director/guitarist for several U.S. tours), two internationally acclaimed CD’s by Kip Winger, recording sessions for Paula Abdul, Paul Stanley, and countless radio and television jingles. He has also played alongside many of his heroes such as Steve Vai and Joe Satriani (as a regular guest on their G3 tours in Dallas), Eric Johnson, Steve Morse, Mike Stern, Ace Frehley, Ted Nugent, and Pierre Bensusan, as well as some of his favorite '60's singing stars such as The Beach Boys, Lesley Gore, and Gordon Waller (of Peter and Gordon fame!)
The only thing this phenomenal talent has not accomplished was releasing a CD in America! Andy has experienced great success with several of his solo releases in Europe and Japan, but That Was Then, This Is Now (the best of X-tacy) is his first worldwide CD that includes a US release! This CD features 11 newly re-mastered tracks from his first two highly acclaimed solo releases, ear X-tacy and ear X-atcy 2 as well as five new songs recorded especially for this compilation that contain some of Andy's best playing ever. Songs such as the Hendrix inspired "Electric Gypsy", the homage to Stevie Ray Vaughan, "I Remember Stevie", a beautiful ballad "A Night To Remember”, the country chicken-picking barn-burner "Farmer Sez", and the incredible tribute to George Harrison, "Slips Away" are just a few examples of why Andy has long been respected and admired in the guitar community. The common thread through all these musical genres seems to be Andy’s passionate style and sense of melody.
Andy's musical career began in his hometown of Evansville, Indiana at the age of 13 with his first band, Taylor Bay. “Early on, I realized that making it in a rock band was such a long-shot, that I better figure out other ways of making a living playing guitar. I began reading about players like Steve Lukather and Larry Carlton who made their living as session musicians. This really appealed to me, since I really loved a wide variety of musical styles.”
The decision to pursue the studio scene led him to more serious music studies. He studied classical guitar for two years before moving to Miami to study jazz guitar at the University of Miami (largely because the Dixie Dregs, Pat Metheny, and Jaco Pastorius had all gone there). He eventually ended up in Dallas where he was very fortunate to get a foot in the door of a very good studio scene. In 1988, the Andy Timmons band was formed and he quickly gained a following in Texas. Around that time, Epic recording artists Danger Danger recruited him to finish their debut record, film several videos, and begin touring.
After 4 years in New York with Danger Danger, Andy returned to Dallas in 1993 to resume his studio career and the Andy Timmons Band. His first solo release, ear X-tacy, was released in 1994 to critical acclaim followed by 1997's ear X-tacy 2 and Pawn Kings, 1998's Orange Swirl, 1999's The Spoken and the Unspoken, and 2000's double CD, And-thology 1 & 2.
Andy has been consistently voted a “Top 20 Favorite Guitarist” in most of Japan’s rock music magazine’s reader polls, as well as being voted "Musician of the Year" four years in a row in the acclaimed Dallas Observer Music Awards. He also has become one of the most respected and sought after clinicians representing Ibanez Guitars, touring the world on their behalf. Just recently, Andy appeared on The Tonight Show and Good Morning America as guitarist for LeeAnn Rimes.
"Vai’s Favored Nations is the first U.S. label that I've ever considered working with. It's an honor to be a part of their family".

禁赛回来,继续发言,不过这把会注意,谢谢组织上给我这次机会!
我挺喜欢andy timmons的，但就是觉得他不够“大师” 呵呵 --------这个话和空气一样,不是大师的东西就不能听了么?SLASH够所谓的大师级别么?你觉得SLASH的音阶伺候不了你廉价的听觉么?
andy timmons没有那种高高在上的感觉…… --------这说明你天生就是当奴才的料,非得找那种让你踩的感觉,或者你有受虐倾向!
估计是他还不够“怪”，呵呵 ----------又来一个立方的空气(质量还不好)
但新专辑是一定要听一听的……----------和前3句连贯读就发现你脑袋里一锅粥,没逻辑性!
我喜欢这哥们…… [/quote]-----------明显拍马屁么

——谁告诉你不是大师的东西就不能听了？你觉得SLASH不够大师？你以什么标准来衡量的？我可不可以这么理解：你挺喜欢SLASH的，但就是觉得他不够“大师”？
andy timmons没有那种高高在上的感觉…… --------这说明你天生就是当奴才的料,非得找那种让你踩的感觉,或者你有受虐倾向!
——这个……奴才是针对满清战斧时候的满人而言的，不好意思我是汉族。你这么反驳我，是不是说你觉得Andy Timmons有高高在上的感觉？
估计是他还不够“怪”，呵呵 ----------又来一个立方的空气(质量还不好)
——空气知道以立方来衡量，恩，不错。
但新专辑是一定要听一听的……----------和前3句连贯读就发现你脑袋里一锅粥,没逻辑性!
——以你的逻辑分析，是说 我只要说了前面3句话，就代表Andy timmons的新专辑对我来说已经没有听的意义了吗？
我喜欢这哥们…… [/quote]-----------明显拍马屁么
——我拍他马屁，他能看到吗？ 如果他看不到，还拍个屁用啊？
总结你针对我的回复，我丝毫没看出你想说明什么。 唯一能看出来的就是你 在和我找茬。刚才回帖的时候正忙着呢，没时间搭理你这个SB（我就这素质，看不惯你只能叫你SB）。 你要有兴趣，就来和我对骂吧，我只要有功夫肯定陪你玩！ 呵呵
