TRUE GUITAR HEROES
 
�       British gui­tar god Eric Clap­ton was always cool, too cool for school.
He was expelled from the Kingston Col­lege of Art for strum­ming his
gui­tar too much!
 
�            About 88% of all gui­tar play­ers are men, but those num­bers didn’t
stop Joan Jett and Lita Ford from becom­ing 1980s female gui­tar
heroes.
 
�            Swedish gui­tarist Yng­wie Johan Malm­steen is revered for his neo-
clas­si­cal gui­tar com­po­si­tions and his tech­ni­cal abil­i­ties. Malmsteen’s
gui­tar of choice is a Fend­er Stra­to­cast­er.
 
�       Led Zep­pelin lead gui­tarist Jim­my Page’s riff on the hit “Stair­way to
Heav­en” is con­sid­ered by many to be the best gui­tar solo of all time.
It’s prob­a­bly the most rec­og­niz­able.
 
�       Frank Zap­pa was cer­tain­ly a char­ac­ter, but he was also a great gui­tar
play­er. Zap­pa cre­at­ed an eclec­tic sound to make quirky songs like
“Jew­ish Princess” and “Mon­tana” hits.
 
�            You may remem­ber Jon Langseth Jr. from the ‘90s as “Kid John­ny
Lang.” Although media inter­est in him evap­o­rat­ed when Lang grew
up, he still works as a pro­fes­sion­al gui­tarist.
 
�            Jimi Hen­drix may not have had the tech­ni­cal abil­i­ties of oth­er
gui­tarists, but his con­tri­bu­tion was how he played. Hendrix’s heavy
rifts com­bined with his on-stage antics set the tone for most lat­er rock
gui­tarists.
 
�       In addi­tion to being known as the “Coun­try Gen­tle­man,” Chet Atkins
was called “Mr. Gui­tar.” Atkins was a gui­tar hero but could also strum
a mean ban­jo and ukulele!
 
�       The late Eddie Van Halen is best remem­bered as the gui­tarist for Van
Halen and his many mes­mer­iz­ing solos, but often for­got­ten in his
gui­tar solo on Michael Jackson’s “Beat It.”
 
�       The Who gui­tarist, Pete Town­shend, devel­oped the “wind­mill” stunt
of strum­ming his gui­tar dur­ing the 1960s. At 76, Town­shend is still
wind­milling!
 
�       Chuck Berry earned the nick­name “The Father of Rock and Roll” in
the 1950s by bring­ing some of the first solos to Amer­i­ca. He also
became known for his one-foot-hop across the stage as he played.
 
�            Gui­tar hero Randy Rhoads is a major rea­son why Ozzy Osbourne
stayed rel­e­vant in the 1980s, with his mas­tery on hits such as “Crazy
Train.” Rhoads trag­i­cal­ly died in a plane crash on March 19, 1982.
 
�            Kurt Cobain brought the Grunge style to the mass­es, but he’s often
crit­i­cized as an over­rat­ed gui­tarist. Unfor­tu­nate­ly, his body of work
was thin.
 
�       Blues­man B.B. King became a gui­tar leg­end for his catchy solos and
longevi­ty. From 1959 until 2008, King released 40 stu­dio albums, and
14 live albums and had scores of hit sin­gles.
 
�       In 1999, coun­try croon­er Garth Brooks adopt­ed the alter ego of Chris
Gaines, a gui­tar-play­ing rock­star. Yeah, pret­ty strange, which is like­ly
why Brooks dropped the exper­i­ment after one album.
 
�       Ana Vidović is one of the best-known gui­tar play­ers you’ve prob­a­bly
nev­er heard of. The Croa­t­ian-born musi­cian is one of the top clas­si­cal
gui­tar play­ers and began her career as a child.
 
�            Dar­rell Lance Abbott, bet­ter known as “Dime­bag Dar­rel,” was the
leg­endary gui­tarist of heavy met­al band Pan­tera and oth­er groups.
Abbot was shot and killed by a crazed fan while he was play­ing a
con­cert in Colum­bus, Ohio in 2004.
 
�       Gui­tarist Ted Nugent built a career in the 1970s as a “solo” artist, but
the lyrics on Nugent’s ear­ly albums were per­formed by Derek St.
Holmes.
 
�            Accord­ing to leg­ends, blues gui­tar man, Robert John­son, sold his
soul to the Dev­il some­where along a cross­roads in the Mis­sis­sip­pi
Delta. Locals claim the cross­roads are at the inter­sec­tion of US
high­ways 61 and 49.
 
�            Car­los San­tana has won ten Gram­my awards through his unique
gui­tar riffs that blend Latin, jazz, and rock and roll to cre­ate an
unde­ni­able style. He learned how to play from his father, who was a
mari­achi musi­cian in Mex­i­co.
 
�            Skwis­gaar Skwigelf and Toki Wartooth are the gui­tarists for the
fic­tion­al, ani­mat­ed band, Dethk­lok. The band has two real stu­dio
gui­tarists and sev­er­al who play live shows.
 
�            Spaniard Andrés Segovia  is often regard­ed as the top clas­si­cal
gui­tarist of all time. Before he died in 1987 at the age of 93, he
estab­lished Spain as the cen­ter of the clas­si­cal gui­tar world through
his play and teach­ing.
 
�       Stephen (Ste­vie) Ray Vaugh­an was anoth­er gui­tar hero who died in a
trag­ic acci­dent. Vaugh­an was killed in a heli­copter crash on August
27, 1990, en route to Chica­go.
 
�            Coun­try leg­end Vince Gill made a name for him­self play­ing the
acoustic and elec­tric gui­tar as well as singing. Gill par­layed his gui­tar
skills to play blue­grass and rock as well as coun­try.
 
�            Leg­endary blues­man Bo Did­ley had a long career and influ­enced
many of the top acts in rock, but he’s prob­a­bly best remem­bered for
his rec­tan­gu­lar, box-shaped gui­tars.

PLANES, TRAINS, AND AUTOMOBILES
 
�            James Watt (remem­ber him from ear­li­er?) devised the con­cept of

�            If you’re in the UK and are told you’re on a “ghost train,” don’t
wor­ry, it’s prob­a­bly not haunt­ed. Also known as “Par­lia­men­tary
trains,” they are routes that are too expen­sive to close, so com­pa­nies
run reduced ser­vice.
 
�            Steam-pow­ered cars, with exter­nal com­bus­tion engines, were
pro­duced in large num­bers in the late 1800s and ear­ly 1900s. The size
of the boil­er need­ed was one of many rea­sons for their decline.
 
�       It’s esti­mat­ed that there will be about two bil­lion cars on the plan­et in
2040. There were only about 500 mil­lion around in 1986.
 
�       A “mod­el train” is a train, and often an accom­pa­ny­ing city, which is
done to scale. Train mod­el­ing is a seri­ous and often expen­sive hob­by
and, accord­ing to enthu­si­asts, should nev­er be referred to as “toys.”
 
�       On Octo­ber 12, 1997, Amer­i­can folk singer John Den­ver died when
the Long-EZ two-seater he was fly­ing crashed off the Cal­i­for­nia
coast. Denver’s license was sus­pend­ed at the time.
 
�            “Con­trolled-access high­ways,” also known as free­ways,
car­riage­ways, and express­ways, began with the Long Island Motor
Park­way in New York in 1908. The first dual free­way was built in
1924 between Milan and Varese, Italy.
 
�       Richard Tre­vithick invent­ed the first steam loco­mo­tive and took it for
a ride near Merthyr Tyd­fil, Wales in 1804. The first “jour­ney” was
just under 10 miles.
 
�       In 2008, the Inter­na­tion­al Civ­il Avi­a­tion Orga­ni­za­tion man­dat­ed that
all flight con­trollers and flight crew mem­bers involved in
inter­na­tion­al flights use Eng­lish.
�            Accord­ing to a 2015 issue of Pop­u­lar Mechan­ics, you have a 40%
chance of sur­viv­ing a plane crash if you sit in the tail sec­tion. I guess
it doesn’t pay to get off the plane first!
 
�       Many peo­ple believe Hen­ry Ford invent­ed the auto­mo­bile, but it was
Ger­man Karl Benz who got the first patent for a motor car in 1886.
Yes, Daim­ler-Benz was his cre­ation as well.
 
�       I’m sure I’m not alone in won­der­ing what’s the point of the air­plane
emer­gency oxy­gen masks, right? The fact is, they only have 15
min­utes of oxy­gen!
 
�            Thomas the Train was cre­at­ed by British author Wilbert Awdry for
his son, Christo­pher. Wilbert wrote the sto­ries for his son and made a
wood­en toy train to go with them.
 
�            The US Fed­er­al Aid High­way Act of 1956 was the start of the
Inter­state High­way sys­tem. Although the sys­tem was orig­i­nal­ly
con­ceived as a way to move mil­i­tary equip­ment across the coun­try, it
was imme­di­ate­ly avail­able for civil­ian use.
 
�            You may be sur­prised to learn that the first elec­tric cars were
invent­ed in the late 1800s and that by the ear­ly 1900s, about one-third
of the cars on the road were electrics.
 
�            For Amer­i­cans, the chance of being killed in a plane crash is about
one in 11 mil­lion, while for a car crash it’s one in 5,000.
