Jimi Hendrix, John Lennon and Brian Jones Guitars to be Auctioned
On Wednesday, July 1, 2009, the London branch of Christie's will conduct a Pop Culture, Rock and Pop Memorabilia Auction that includes a 1970 Fender Stratocaster associated with Jimi Hendrix; a 1958 Hofner Senator acoustic guitar owned by John Lennon in "the early days of Liverpool" according to documentation from the late George Harrison; and a Harmony Stratotone electric guitar owned and played in the early '60s by founding member of the Rolling Stones, Brian Jones. The sale is scheduled for 2 p.m. at Christie's South Kensington facility (85 Old Brompton Road, London SW7 3LD), though a personal appearance is not required for bidding as Christie's offers a number of alternate methods for bid placing (see the auction ecatalogue for details). The instruments, along with other items from the 193 lots to be auctioned, will be available for viewing at Christie's in South Kensington from June 27 through two hours prior to the auction during hours set-forth in the catalog.

Optek Releases New PC Interface for the Fretlight Guitar
Optek Music Systems, Inc., the makers of the Fretlight guitar, has announced the release of a new PC interface, Fretlight Studio, for its Fretlight series of electric and electric-acoustic instruments. Fretlight Studio combines four previously separate software packages (M-Player, Improviser, Lesson Player and Video Player) into a single application that serves as a gateway to the four modular features. This means that Fretlight users can play songs, take video lessons, practice chords and scales or improvise a solo from one screen. "We wanted to accomplish two things for our customers with this release,” says Rusty Shaffer, president and CEO of Optek Music Systems. “First, we wanted to simplify the interface for our key Fretlight applications, and second, we decided to make this software package free to our customers,” a savings of nearly $100 according to Optek. A Mac version of Fretlight Studio is expected later this year, but until then, the separate Fretlight software modules are now free to Mac users. More »

Ponderosa Stomp 2009 Photo Gallery Roundup
The Ponderosa Stomp is the brainchild of Dr. Ira Padnos, better known as Dr. Ike, and a group of co-conspirators known as the Mystic Knights of the Mau-Mau. The Ponderosa Stomp Foundation/MK Charities is a 501(c)3 cultural organization “dedicated to presenting and preserving the rich history of American roots music.” The Stomp is held every year in the Big Easy the week between the two weekends of the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. In recent years, in addition to the two nights of performances, several day time conferences featuring panels of musicians, artists, writers, industry insiders, etc., have been added. These have grown from rather casual gatherings to standing room only events. There’s even a record fair where fan(atic)s can buy, sell or swap records (yes, vinyl LPs, 45s, and 78s). More »

Matt Warnock Reviews Allan Holdsworth Trio Concert
Modern Guitars columnist Dr. Matthew Warnock reviews a concert by the Allan Holdsworth Trio that took place on May 14, 2009. From the review: "It was a warm and windy evening in the quiet little Chicago suburb of Palatine, Illinois. Several hours before the concert started there was already a line of people outside Durty Nellie's Bar and Restaurant who had come to see one of the most respected, and often underexposed, guitarists of the past half-century, Allan Holdsworth. As they waited to enter the club, conversations popped up about their favorite Holdsworth song or album and anecdotes from previous concerts dating all the way back to the early '70s when the young guitarist first stunned jazz-fusion fans all over the globe. While many people in attendance were long-time fans of the British guitarist, there was a surprising number of teenagers and people who were talking to their friends about how excited they were to see Holdsworth perform for the first time. The mixture of fans, old and new, is a testament to Holdsworth's appeal as a composer and guitarist." More »

Albert King with Stevie Ray Vaughan Live Album to be Reissued
Albert King never got the mass recognition he deserved. He always seemed to be in the shadow of B.B. But among blues guitarists and fans of the craft, he was the master. Austin, Texas’ Stevie Ray Vaughan, 31 years King’s junior, exploded onto the scene in 1983, first as guitarist on David Bowie’s “Let’s Dance” followed by his own smash hit “Pride and Joy.” When the two met onstage at Antone’s in 1973, they formed an ongoing friendship. This bond culminated with the December, 1983, live recording titled In Session, originally produced for the Canadian TV concert series of the same name. The recording, originally issued on Stax Records, reached No. 1 on Billboard’s blues album chart, selling more than 300,000 units. On June 30, 2009, Stax Records, the imprint upon which King made his most legendary recordings in the ’60s and ’70s, will reissue In Session with digital remastering and three sets of liner notes by Fantasy and Stax Records’ Bill Belmont, and journalists Lee Hildebrand and Dan Forte.
