Jim Marshall 1923-2012

[Bib]

Putain sa race...

Ca me met un coup cette nouvelle ! L'année des 50 ans de sa marque...
Il avait 88 ans.

Je dirais bien putain de crabe, mais je ne sais pas de quoi il est mort...

RIP, un grand nom de l'histoire de la musique qui part. Enfin 88 ans, il aura pas mal vécu quand même.

[Mr. Gig]

Merde alors, clair que c'est d'autant plus triste que ça tombe peu avant la célébration des "50 Years Of Loud".

C'est une figure emblématique de l'amplification qui s'en va...

Je regrette pas l'achat de mon M.B. 30 Watts pour basse en tout cas.

Où que soit désormais Dr. Jim, j'espère qu'il la joue "Louder Than Hell".

[Father_Picard]

Bah désormais Jim Marshall l' ombre définitivement... (je retourne me coucher )

[Set]

Merde alors, à l'inventeur du JCM800

[gedral]

Dire que le dernier produit portant son nom sorti de son vivant est un frigo.
Ca la fout mal.

Bref, repose en paix toi le batteur qui a tout fait pour que les guitaristes couvrent tes confrères cogneurs de fûts.

[Cardinal-Sin]

ouais mais alors quel frigo

[franang]

tout de suite ca donne envie d'aller chercher des binouses !

Ben oui mais il n'a aucune actualité musicale contrairement à Running Wild ou Lonewolf.

R.I.P.

Rock n roll's biggest stars are to join forces to celebrate the life and work of revolutionary amp pioneer Jim Marshall OBE. Following the sad news of Jim's death earlier this month the event, which was already planned to commemorate Marshall's 50th anniversary, will now be held in honour of the legendary man and his remarkable life.

To celebrate Jim's 50 legendary years of musical innovation, Marshall is taking over Wembley arena for a full on rock and roll riot on Saturday, September 22. The groundbreaking artist lineup is as pioneering as the brand itself and includes global rock royalty from such bands as IRON MAIDEN, SLIPKNOT, WHITESNAKE, CHICKENFOOT, THE CULT, BLACK LABEL SOCIETY, DEEP PURPLE, JUDAS PRIEST, BLACK SABBATH and many more. The Marshall team is bringing together the biggest rock gods on the planet, all of whom are keen to pay their respects to the legend that was Jim Marshall.

IRON MAIDEN's Nicko McBrain will compère the event and will be joined by the world's most legendary guitarists, acclaimed musicians and Marshall enthusiasts. Just added to the bill is ex-JUDAS PRIEST frontman Tim "Ripper" Owens, who joins former TRAPEZE, DEEP PURPLE and BLACK SABBATH vocalist and bassist Glenn Hughes. Also scheduled to appear are multiple Grammy nominee and CHICKENFOOT guitarist Joe Satriani, Ozzy Osbourne collaborator and founder of BLACK LABEL SOCIETY Zakk Wylde, one of rock's premiere virtuoso guitarists Yngwie Malmsteen, technical wizard and one of GuitarOne magazine's "Top 10 Greatest Guitar Shredders of All Time" Paul Gilbert, WHITESNAKE's Doug Aldrich and Brian Tichy, THE CULT's Billy Duffy and SLIPKNOT/STONE SOUR frontman Corey Taylor. There are also further big names to be announced.

Talking about the event, Nicko McBrain commented: "This is truly a celebration of a British icon — Marshall. Beyond doubt, Jim Marshall shaped the sound of rock music for eternity! Words cannot describe how pioneering Jim Marshall was! We're bringing together beyond-legendary artists for a true celebration of Jim's life. There is no better way to commemorate Jim's amazing life than putting on the loudest event ever. Expect pure rock and roll madness amplified to the max by Marshall!"

Talking about the much loved "Father of Loud," Joe Satriani commented: "He created the tone we all cherish in rock: big, bold, and beautiful and in your face. With every power chord, soaring melody and searing lead we will continue to salute his legacy!"

A sentiment echoed by Yngwie Malmsteen, who commented: "Every day I plug in the studio or stage, he will always be there."

Doug Aldrich added; "Jim will shine on forever... He was maybe the single biggest influence in music."

And Glenn Hughes said "A brilliant man and dear friend... rock musos worldwide will miss him dearly..."

With Zakk Wylde concluding: "God bless father Marshall... The saying goes leave this world a better place than before you got here. He did.

Ah tiens, à lire ça on pourrait presque penser que le gars a eu une certaine importance dans l'histoire du Rock quand même !

Ben oui mais il n'a aucune actualité musicale contrairement à Running Wild ou Lonewolf.

En même temps, ça paraît assez antagoniste d'aimer Running Wild et Marshall !

[Everflow]

Pourtant...

FAKE !!!
