Tapping

Untitled

The remark about Larry Carlton being the first to record a tap in 1976 is absurd and incorrect. Check out the Wikipedia article on tapping for a lot of history on the technique.66.168.219.21 04:37, 30 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it said he was the first to tap, I believe it said it was uncommon at the time. Pretty much every technique is as old as the hills. There were probably people tapping on lutes in the 12th century. I believe the Adam Carse style approach on music history; never make a definative statement about the "invention" of something that may have logically been done before.

Why 'Charlemagne'?

The article doesn't shed any light on what the 'Charlemagne' reference is all about. Was it because Owsley was a stylish 'king' of the drugs scene? --Thoughtcat (talk) 06:58, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Owsley Stanley article says he's a direct descendant of Charlemagne 208.29.184.143 (talk) 02:25, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Remove links in the lyrics

Can someone remove the links from "kerosene" "technicolor" and "motor-home"? These lyrics (as stated in the article itself) are allusions to various aspects of SF mid-sixties drug culture, so I'm not sure why the lyric would be linked to an article explaining kerosene. Specifically, the technicolor motorhome refers to the bus "Furthur", also explained in the article. If anything, it should link there. 71.202.77.226 (talk) 23:15, 20 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Elvis allusion

There is a refrence to Elvis in the title. (recalling “Kid Galahad” and in the notion, “you crossed a diamond with a pearl and turned it on the world” which is a great description of Elvis’s influence on the development of Rock and Roll. 47.229.40.90 (talk) 16:46, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
