So Dave Navarro can play, apparently

[CTN]

Everything of his I've ever heard from him has been pretty uninteresting. Janes Addiction stuff, RHCP stuff, solo stuff, all of it left me unimpressed.

And then I realized this very fun, tasteful, well written solo on this Glenn Hughes track was played/written by Dave Navarro. In fact, he played guitar on the whole album and it's actually one of my favourite Glenn Hughes albums, and I'm a pretty huge Glenn Hughes fan. Chad Smith of RHCP was on drums also.

This song is serious groove, all the way through. One of my faves on the album. And a cool solo. And it's Dave Navarro?!?! It's throwing me for a loop. Weird.

The solo starts at 2:55, but I encourage you to listen to the whole song.

All those years building a reputation for naught.

Figured out the whole solo today.

surprisingly, it was easier than it sounded. But there's this section near the end where he plays a series of quadruplets in quick succession. I know what notes he plays but my fingers are sluggish after only practicing a few hours every week for the past year or so, and I can't quite nail the quick picking/fretting.

Gotta practice that sucker.

I was also surprised by the fact that much of the phrasing is based around scale fragments/arpeggios and scalar runs that are part of my repertoire of go-to phrases.

Dave is one of my favorite players. I love all of his shit.

[CTN]

you keep surprising me with your musical tastes Bruce.

I am a huge Janes fan. Loved the early RHCP stuff. Dave's shit with Panic Channel is awesome.

Interesting....

Dave Navarro can go from shredding to bedding in one fell swoop ... now that he's designed a two-in-one guitar strap slash sex toy.

The rocker tells TMZ he decided to combine his 2 favorite things -- music and sex -- and teamed up with a BDSM toy company ... and the result is something he calls, "The Strap."

Pretty simple concept ... the guitar strap comes off the guitar and can then be used to restrain yourself or a partner in a ton of different positions. Seriously ... just about anything your sick mind can come up with ... The Strap can handle it.

As Dave put it ... "It's the Swiss army knife of the bedroom" -- that is if you don't already have an actual Swiss army knife in play.

Navarro preaches safe S&M though, and revealed his safe word -- “Chappaquiddick.”

Maybe he'll have better luck.

Dear Dave Navarro,

Please just stick to music. It's the only thing you're actually good at.

Thank you,
