Hi Guys I Just Want To Ask Which Is Better To Do The Workouts Taylor Allans Program Or Alex

I am asking you physicists, how did Jimi Hendrix play guitar the way he did?

I think we all know how he played the way he did - the mechanics behind what he did were novel and sometimes surprisingly simple. There’s a reason so many people learn how to play Purple Haze and Voodoo Chile (Slight Return) and so many of his other songs. There are a handful of more technically challenging songs (Little Wing and Castles Made Of Sand stand out), but they’re still very accessible.And I think that’s part of the draw - his playing was very accessible to almost everybody. You can hear traditional blues and rhythm and blues all over his playing. His time with the Isley Brothers and in similar acts really shaped his playing over the long term. His use of things like Emaj -> Esus -> Emaj chords, or the occasional 2nd thrown in, or many of his other tricks, were great throwbacks to those earlier years.I think a lot of it was a lack of fearlessness - he was very comfortable trying new things and seeing what would happen. You see that with a lot of the “greats”. Miles Davis’ Kind Of Blue is an excellent example of that in action. He took a leap on an idea and made an album that was, in my opinion, decades ahead of its time. Stevie Ray Vaughan’s Texas Flood came out in the early 80’s after having done work for David Bowie - a time when that kind of music wasn’t really all that popular.Hendrix (and his manager) also understood that the stage show is a different experience than the recording. Few people talk about The Who’s performance at the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival - and with good reason. Hendrix literally lit his guitar on fire. His stage shows were loud and visually interesting - they were an experience.These kinds of questions kill me, because his playing was often sloppy, guitars out of tune, lyrics maybe a little far out there, but the cohesive thing that was Jimi Hendrix is what made him interesting. Check out Robin Trower’s Bridge Of Sighs for another guitarist from that era that sounds strikingly similar in a lot of ways, but he didn’t have that full package. The Quicksilver Messenger Service is another great example.At the end of the day, there’s no definitive answer to a question like this - and maybe that’s part of what keeps us coming back. We all get something different out of his body of work. Maybe that’s the enduring appeal.

What are the favorite books of prolific readers, i.e., folks who have read 500+ books?

I suppose that I count as a profilic reader since I figure that I've read close to 1,000 books on my 27 years on this planet. (That's not even counting my re-reads.)Despite the fact that I read a lot, I have specific tastes. I like books with a strong plot and characterization. "Prosey" books that focus on the beauty of the English language bore me to tears. Give me guns, explosivees and conflict any day. Still, my tastes may seem a bit electic, but I promise you, they all have, at minimum, a cool plot/concept or characters.My favorites are:One Hundred Years of Solitude (Gabriel Garcia Marquez): yes, Love in the Time of Cholera is easier to read, but this was my first Garcia Marquez book and I fell in love right away. You know what they say about first loves.Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World (Haruki Murakami): I'd read many Murakami books before this one, but this one was my favorite. I loved the concept and the prose. Pride and Prejudice (Jane Austen): pitch-perfect characterization and a great plot. Austen showcases her skill at romance here. There's a reason why Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy live on as one of the best literary love matches. Barney's Version (Mordecai Richler): this one really got under my skin. I'm still in awe with Richler's skill at making such a big asshole sympathetic. Barney is someone that you love to hate--a racist, bad father,  bad husband, the works--but you still feel for Barney. A Wrinkle in Time (Madeleine L'Engle): this book came along at just the right time. Not only did I love the story and the message, but Meg Murry resonated with my 10-year-old bespectacled self with the bowl cut (hey, my mom cut my hair until I was 13).The Time Traveler's Wife (Audrey Neffenberger): maybe I'm a huge mush-ball, but I thought this story of a strange, difficult, yet touching love story was beautiful. I still think about it even though I read it almost 10 years ago.The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao (Junot Diaz): I went to a book reading by Junot Diaz in college and I ran out to buy a copy. It's a great, fresh book told in a great, fresh way. How can you not sympathize with poor Oscar?As you can see, I have a soft spot for underdogs. i kind of feel like I'm choosing which one of my children is my favorite. There are so many more books out there that I love, but If I must, I'll say that these are my favorites.
