    In 1991 (14 yo) I enthusiastically asked my guitar teacher how the guitar for Where the Streets Have No Name was done. He walked me out to the showroom at the music store, grabbed a delay pedal, and showed me right there. It was like a magician revealing his trick.... Still one of my fondest, most precious guitar moments ever, even some 25+ years later. Never stop learning!

    • @calebtylershepherd21
      @calebtylershepherd21 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      TheDarthpaully Right! You know I miss those rare moments in the beginning stages. I had the same experience when I first learned how guitarists I loved were getting those Distortion sounds. Of course then I didn’t know that’s what it was called back when I was 16. The first time I discovered my Dad’s old fender amp had a second channel with distortion that was like the biggest moment of discovery. Didn’t matter what it sounded like. To me at that moment I was Hendrix and/or Kurt Cobain all rolled into one. Lol. At least I thought I was playing something that was awesome at the time. Just those first moments of discovering what reverb, and delay was, and how to get that sound I’d heard on so many records as a kid. Now as a guitar player of 18 years it’s just not quite the same. Those moments of discovering something that immensely cool are few and far between anymore. I’ll never forget the moments spent in my bedroom experimenting with those sounds for the first time.

      I could tell you how it was named, "Where the Streets Have No Name." We don't get along but I was eight years old when I ran away from home to my school at night because they were having a fashion show in my school. I did had Edge's guitar and we made the song and he copied the riffs from me. Part of the reason the way it sounds is because it was my idea to put these two pedals together and my hands were too small for the guitar that I could do so much. They were asking questions on what street I was walking through and I was like I don't know and Bono was getting pissed off. That is how the song got its name and the riffs was made by an eight year old boy. The real reason we don't get along is because they were acting like criminals and they were arrested on gun charges. They were really a bunch of jerks.

      It isn't ALL, it's actually quite a small subsection of builders who take a less capitalistic, more collaborative and cooperative approach. These particular builders are far more likely to be musicians themselves, and the profit they make really kinda just functions as a means by which they can justify spending their time on it, because we all have to sell something to survive in this world. I find the same general phenomenon among professional musicians. Not rockstars, but people who just make a living at their craft. They appreciate that making such a living allows them to actually do what they want to do, and would do for free if they did not live in a society that requires everyone to sell something in order to survive.

      local music communities have interacted this way for the last 15-20 years as well. Because it works better and, well because the Record Companies abandoned everyone ~ where previously those companies were guilty of amping up the competition, the snobbery and douchebaggery. Local musicians depend on each other for support, for audiences, for venues, for gigs. From the ground up. From the roots up.

      My old boss was just like these guys helping each other out like they do. His name is Tom Anderson. One of the nicest guys in the world. He doesn’t care about making a lot of money. He honestly just wants to make the best sounding, playing electric guitars he possibly can. He could of easily been as big as PRS, but chose not to. Sounds crazy but it’s true. Back in the old days small guitar manufacturers used to help each other out. People like Bob Taylor, John Suhr, Roger Sadowski, Larrivee, Carvin, Tyler, Dave Schecter etc... Too many to list. I can’t remember them all. Tom knows everyone. Sorry I didn’t mean to take this thread hostage. I’m just very proud to have worked for such a great guy and was very fortunate to have been able to make incredible instruments.

    As a teenager I lived near a walled garden which would repeat a single handclap 8 times with a 24 second fading delay . It is a little known fact that all English Thoroughbred racehorses can trace their ancestry back to 3 Stud's The Godolphin arab / The Darley arab / & the Byerley Turk .. I lived near the purpose built walled Garden enclosure for one of these . It was a High walled ( maybe 16 feet ) Flatstone walled enclosure . Basically rectangular but with pillared viewing porticos built in to each wall so that visitors could sit in shelter . Perhaps these & the perfect dimensions produced the effect . I now live near a long river valley where of a Morning I can bounce my voice off the sides & back from the end 3 times b4 it dies out .. & the neighbours think I'm strange .. Lol .. love the channel .. I seek the perfect wah & volume control pedals . I have the Boss Me - 80 .. Dunlop Vol .. Hellfire Wah & electro harmonix wailer wah .. But I want to sound like Robert Randolph or Daniel Lanois .. Ernie Ball I think .. so it would be great if you made the perfect wah & volume pedals ?

      Christopher Fonda - if you haven't heard them, you should check out Man or Astroman. They're a surf band who make heavy use of slapback to similar affect. I'm fascinated by how time-based effects lend themselves so well to aggressive playing. I wish more punk and metal bands made use of things like this rather than just heavy distortion.

    U2 - BAD is probably my favourite song to play with delay (a BOSS DD2 was my first delay back in the 80s)... Going back in time, Big Country - The Crossing (song not album) had a great echo pattern at the beginning of the song. Whenever adventurous, try out Argentinian group: Soda Stereo - Signos (specially the live version in "Ruido Blanco") or Cuidad de la Furia from their album "Confort y musica para volar". Peace!

    It was 1980. I was 17. I was driving around the island of Oahu with some buddies, drunk and stoned out if my mind. As we were made our way over the Pali Highway near midnight, slipping through the fog that had enveloped the higher altitudes of the Koolau range, I heard what I thought was the sound of heaven come ringing out of the car's FM speakers: U2's "I Will Follow".
    Edge's opening, chiming riff sounded like a band of angels plucking heavenly strings from beyond the foggy opaqueness of the night. It was transcendent.
    Yep, delay. The greatest guitar effect ever. Mahalos!

Also love all of the delays on just about anything by Spiritualized, but specially on "Sway". Best example of an oil can delay I can think of is the piano sound from DEVO's "Gut Feeling", they used a Acoustic Reverbrato. So good.

    Brian May's Brighton Rock solo on Live Killers. Brian masterfully times his notes to achieve harmonies with himself. I believe he used 2 Echoplex units originally.

    Thanks for sharing so much insight with the historical context! My favorite Edge tune showcasing delay has to be Bad live. It really hit home seeing that live again at Arrowhead last year. It really highlights the essence of the Edge and his ability to take a few simple notes and capitivate an audience for 7+ minutes. His amazing precision rhythm making use of this critical tool is what gives U2 its unique sound.

      Eduardo Miranda one of the best bands ever, but unless I've missed something, Plans was their last good album, with Transatlanticism being their absolute best, and their older ones being pretty great too. Saw them live outdoors in Phoenix in like 2005-2006, AND won a radio contest to see them up close with only maybe 20 people in the radio studio (92.9 the mountain in Tucson where I lived) while they played live for the station, and got a signed poster... which i promptly traded for H to my dealer who was also a fan =\ traded my girlfriend's too. Yeah I wasn't in a very good place then.

    "I'm in love with a German Film Star."- "The Passions": Clive Timperley's guitar through, a Carlsbro Mantis BBD unit, with the echo tempo and swirling modulation from the "Rotofaze" section made the song. Vinnie Reilly, guitarist from "The Durutti Column" used delay with great innovation and was very influential, any of their tracks is worthy of consideration. Robert Fripp, a master, "Frippertronics" best moment, imho, "Heroes"- David Bowie. Brian May uses delay wonderfully, the "Queen" tracks: "Brighton Rock", "White Queen", "Tenement Funster", made me need a delay unit.

    @JcGrubbsFilms 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    So it wasn't necessarily a specific song, but t specific performance. My favorite band is Built to Spill and when I was in college I was really getting into electric guitar and effects for the first time. And I saw a performance from 2007 where they play their song "Car". Their drummer had recently passed away and they decided to do a stripped down version of the song without drums in honor of him. And I watched and played that chord progression and solo hundreds of times trying to perfect it and could never quite get the solo tone right. Then I finally noticed at the beginning Doug rakes the strings and it delays and he shuts it off. I instantly went out and bought a delay pedal and spent at least an hour matching the delay time. Then i played it again and it sounded perfect! I don't know if that's exactly what you wanted but , when I think of delay I think of me learning that song.

    • @mattgilbert7347
      @mattgilbert7347 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Pat Flanigan He uses Boss DD2 (two of them), T-Rex Replica, Providence Chrono, and some MXR rack delays. Idk if he still uses the MXRs tho, but those are all over "The Wall".
      I'd bet that the Pulse version uses at least one DD-2 and maybe the MXR Rack. Gilmourish.com has all the info on Gilmour tone and rigs.

    My first bucket brigade based fx box was a diy kit by Elektor magazine based on a Tda1022 chip, which introduced digital hiss/noise. But hey, I had now both echo and flanging from a little box! Before that I had a tube driven WEM Copycat, which also could produce a nice overdrive. I modified it into a separated echo for stereo experience. I loved the grainy wow and flutter tape sound.

  • @codybaggett9741
    @codybaggett9741 6 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Favorite song with delay: "When the Levee Breaks" by Led Zeppelin. Really listen close to the drum intro and you will hear a dotted eighth note (like) delay. The story behind it is that John Bonham's drums were placed at the bottom of a stairwell in a mansion and close mic'd and another mic was set on a different floor. Remember, this was done in 1970...

      @TyRobertsmedia 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      They used an echorek for that sound... The amazing ambient tone comes from the room --- not the echo. I should say that it's a powerful combination of room mics and a slab-back echo effect that makes it special. The only way to create that length of time based effect using only mics would be to place the mics at least 60 - 70 or more feet away. I think the entry hall, foyer, room was only 3 floors high. Since sound travels at 1130 feet per second it takes about 9/10 of a millisecond for sound to travel a one foot distance. Recording engineers typically round this off to the timing formula of 1 ms = 1 foot.

  • @Mr_Bollie
    @Mr_Bollie 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Haha, grew up the same way. With an older family member listening "Joshua Tree" all the time. So I knew the lyrics by heart when I was 6 years old and my only language was German. It took a couple of more years until I had English in school and could actually understand the words. Anyway, I think it was the dense sonic atmosphere that made that album get stuck in my brain. And big part of that are the delays. When I was nine, "Roger Water's The Wall in Berlin" was on TV and there was it again: Guitars with delay. No wonder, that as a guitar player, this is my favorite effect. :)

    They plow thru Gamma's "Razor King". nailed it.
    I join the band playing this at bar and party gigs.
    man, '84 and i';d already quit but co guit says "Montrose is playing. I'll buy tix if you drive". Hell yeah.
    'Met' Ronnie in the parking lot of The Keystone Palo Alto after the show. They killed on everything that night.
    Me and my bandmate sat with the sister of my Wife's best friend. She saw Ronnie first. Pretty special;
    "05 and 'we're getting the band together'.
    Yeah we could still play but begging to do Razor King again got nowhere.
    Guit said "Getting the timing right is a headache'. Maybe the singer didn't want to sing it.
    On cassette here.
