I got to hang out with Henry a few years ago. Very nice guy and very knowledgeable. I once walked into a room where he was warming up before a clinic and he was running scales like a Jazz guy. I can understand how some people don't like what he chooses to play and that it's not their thing. But make no mistake, he has terrific technique and what he plays is a deliberate choice and not because he doesn't have the chops to play it straight. There's a reason a lot of great players have played and recorded with him.
Yeah he defo has chops and has way more knowledge than most would realize... so much so he won't be concerned with negative comments... he's past that...
I really liked him when I first listened to him in my teens, but I kind of went off his music. Henry Kaiser takes super-cool custom expensive guitars and amps and gear, and uses them to make his guitar sound like the most unearthly noise imaginable. Then Fred Frith manages to make the same noise, or better, using a slightly modified ES 345, whatever amp the venue provided, and a piece of string. I prefer Fred Frith's approach.
This was great. You should guys should do more of these types. Don't let the dad blues crew dissuade you. Variety is good regardless of whether or not you're into this stuff.
Exactly, of course Henry is bad but he's also entertaining but dad blues crew aren't that good either yet they're so boring. "I'm playing with feeling." (proceeds to play sloppy unimaginative bends and slow minor pentatonic runs with bad phrasing and limited neck knowledge)
The Kenny shayne Sheppard crowd.....I know it all too well.....or joe bonnamassa.....great players but meh....who cares . Alot of that stuff is beer tent music.
One of the odd things about Kaiser is when he is in full atonal freak out mode, his playing vocabulary is extremely blues-based but uses the pedals to get those more out-there sounds and harmonies. But he’s not everyone’s cuppa, though.
Totally with you on that, the guy is a conman, and he's been hiding his complete lack of musicianship behind effects for years while using his grandfather's fortune to pay his way into more illustrious musical company to make him look respected. People who play avant-garde music can all usually play, they're all technically good players which enables them to comfortably push things out there. Kaiser discovered that with effects and throwing his hand around a guitar neck, he could bluff his way into looking like he has a bit of a clue. But anyone who plays guitar can tell that he is below remedial.
Kaiser: "I changed out the neck on this guitar for one that is perfectly intonated using the most accurate scientific techniques and artisan craftsmanship." Kaiser then plays the guitar like a gorilla using another gorilla to fight a 3rd gorilla.
@@Kohntarkosz Do you play guitar? Kaiser is a complete scam artist. His artistic outlook comes from a very specific point in the 60's where the guiding mentality was that "every creative impulse is special and worth just as much as anything else. ANY creativity is totally valid. Crapping on the floor and calling it 'art' is just as valid as what's on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel." and Kaiser has spent his entire life living off this idea. If he called himself a painter and you handed him paint, brushes, and a canvas, he'd throw the paint on the ground, then headbutt a hole in the canvas and proudly exclaim that his "creation" was just as valid and inspiring as the Mona Lisa. I suppose all art is ultimately aesthetic and subjective though, and if you personally want to believe no art is better or more meaningful than any other art, knock yourself out. But I'd bet your life would be more enriched if you chose to believe some art is more meaningful and evocative than other art. And if you do, you'll see that Kaiser is a moron. I'll even bet that if you, Kohntarkosz, picked up a guitar and practiced every day for only like a month or two, you would be more technically proficient than Kaiser, and could probably produce better art than he could because in that time you would probably have developed a more substantial vocabulary of musical ideas through which you could express yourself than that hack Henry Kaiser has been able to conjure over the course of his entire life.
Henry has made a career out of sounding like old dial up internet through an amplifier. He should be composing for horror movies. A man with a butcher knife jumps out as Henrys solo begins.... now that will give you nightmares.
I'm with tubenshaft below: MORE of this kinda thing, PLEASE. Guitars are capable of so much more than we currently use them for. If Hendrix were alive I'm pretty sure he'd be using gear like this. Playing pentatonics or shredding at 3000mph is all fine, but hardly gonna change the musical landscape. Explore, or be damned... And being mean about other musicians, no matter your opinion on their output, is the worst kind of karma. What's more, Kaiser played with Richard Thomspon and Fred Frith. I'm sure THOSE virtuosos don't just play with any old hack...
_"If Hendrix were alive today, would he even play the guitar?"_ oh for fuck's sake. how can you speculate on a man that's been dead for almost 50 years? come on now.
Yeah and Jimi Hendrix would've stayed within the boundaries of guitar established by people who spent years playing within those boundaries! He wouldn't disrespect or offend people who expected music to be played within their definition of art!
Wow, now I don't feel so bad about the number of pedals I have. I enjoyed this rig rundown even though I do find Henry Kaiser's music too noisy, but it's cool to see all that stuff.
The danger of letting muscians show their rig on home turf - it never ends. :D (This is not a complaint, the same thing would happend if anyone would start to talk to me about my home studio - pedal nerdorama until ears falls off)
I've been watching these rundowns for years and never commented. This rundown is so awesome and fun, I just had to. Well done PG. Lets get more of these obscure rundowns happening.
Abstract expressionism from the 40s and 50s still offends people. I think people feel like the artist is trying to dupe them. That is not really the case. Artist and musicians express themselves in different ways. This is almost like modern folk music. It is not a put on. No money in it, people do it for the pure joy of expressing themselves. How can someone find fault in that?
Putting down someone else equates to elevating yourself in the mind of many. I thought everything sounded like crap, but at the same time I found it to be one of the more interesting rig run downs so far.
Dudes an absolute legend. Should be writing compositions for indie 8bit style video games and horror flicks. Everything he plays reminds me of music you'd hear in a NES, Sega, and SNES game or horror movie during a butcher scene.
I wished Ted would ask much more about the guitars - pickups, wiring, tuners, frets, gauge and so on... I don't really care about basses but the choice of a metal neck would have intrigued me as well... He also didn't ask about guitar details on the last rundown he did. I don't know if he's not a guitar player himself (he's no newbie - I don't know where - but I've seen him several times on YT in the past...hmm). Would be cool if he includes such questions next time.
It's cool that Kaiser quoted John Abercrombie's Timeless. Yes. he is well listened and can definitely play! With that in mind, a love letter to many of the commenters here...Just because the players are exploring different sounds, techniques, and displaying a musical philosophy that is not of a standard approach, doesn't make it bad. Everything has validity...even the same old tired pentatonic blues licks that have been played to death in local bars, and concert halls. These fellas most certainly started there; we all have, as they are the building blocks to learning how to play. But some choose a different route. It probably isn't for everyone, and that's okay...You don't have to like it, you just need to know it exists!
Kaiser is more of a guitar sound inventor than a guitar player. He's technically very limited and not very musical without effects, but he has a knack for finding very unique and innovative ways to use said effects. His work has obviously inspired Sonic Youth and Wilco's Nels Cline and that's good enough for me. He's like a famous abstract painters people dismiss because of the age old "I could do the same thing".
@@ba_charles So you think Kaiser is a technical player that isn't interested in nor a pioneer in guitar effects and that he has had no effect on his peers, some of which (Nels Cline) are actually friends with him. got it.
@Noartist You're completely missing my point. Technique isn't important to what he does. He's a pioneer of noise, post rock free improvisation. He's released 126 LP Albums since the late 1970s. It's like saying Jackson Pollock is a shit painter because he can't paint a classic portrait and all he does is splatter paint on canvases randomly with bad technique. It takes a lot courage, creativity and curiosity to pursue this type of subversive and polarizing sonic exploration and release music that prolifically.
Is it just me or does 12:57 sound like the guitar dude was taking a whiz at a Pilot truck stop when some long haul driver dropped a big deuce in the stall next to him?
Kaiser developed his ear in a very eclectic way. Being different is not the same as being a bad musician. Listen to one of his albums before making your mind up. I’m not sure how a great musician couldn’t at least respect the heck out of what he does. It may not be your favorite style but it IS actually a unique STYLE that’s incredibly difficult to play. He kind of makes Adrien Belew seem like Angus Young!
Well, they certainly managed to con their way onto American Bandstand AND The Tomorrow Show, and after the Dregs broke up, I remember seeing Steve Morse on MTV (again, he managed to con Elektra into making videos for some of the songs on The Introduction, which MTV played, and they also did an interview segment and then later, we saw him in the videos that Kansas did when he was in the band).
I wish youd pulled a cartridge out and showed it to us; are the repairable if they fail? Because if vintage cartridges are available, theyll likely cost an arm and a leg and may need bad caps or noisy trasistors replaced. I hope the parts arent encased in epoxy.
It takes special skills to take the best available gear and create mediocre sounds. These are guys who raid the vintage gear market yet help keep prices down! Oh a ‘63 Fender purist special in a Dumble (makes a fart sound with it).
The comments on this thread are comedic gold. Haha. It’s not my cup of tea and I’ve never heard of these guys but there is talent involved in this for sure. This was more of a Premier Pedal Party but what evs. Would love to see something like this with drummers and their gear. Some of those snares in the background are badass.
"Songs are really just interesting things to be doing with the air." -Tom Waits. Many find Henry Kaiser's work interesting, and it's definitely musical. Whether or not it fits into a person's personal interests is subjective. Every brain responds differently to things.
I love harsh noise however this might be jealously, but a man doesn’t need to be buying this much stuff and getting all this work done for this style of music. To each his own I guess.

Truly, this clown has done nothing to deserve a rig rundown or any notoriety except as being an unusually bad "musician" with a large trust fund to spend equipping himself with a really large and good pile of gear, and hire musicians to play with him.

This made me stupidly happy. Love seeing this sort of bands covered. Have you considered other cuneiform artists?
So many sad boring people getting all angry about things they don’t understand. Love it.

It sounds like he's strangling it.
The Dregs were the closest to Rockstars that any fusion band ever got. I remember Andy doing shots of JD during a song.
Well, they certainly managed to con their way onto American Bandstand AND The Tomorrow Show, and after the Dregs broke up, I remember seeing Steve Morse on MTV (again, he managed to con Elektra into making videos for some of the songs on The Introduction, which MTV played, and they also did an interview segment and then later, we saw him in the videos that Kansas did when he was in the band).
Henry is absolutely cool! Fantastic Sounds on his boards. Thanx
coolest rig rundown I've seen in a while. Amazing set up
I saw these guys play at my local cafe. By the time they set up their gear the cafe was closing so I watched through the window
Henry Kaiser belongs to the "Outsider Music" genre for sure!
Adrian Belew 2
but in all serious him, belew, metheny and snakefinger are my top influences

@43:38 da fuk is that?!??....i think at that point I would’ve jerked the cable out of the amp and walked out.
When will Henry actually learn to play the guitar
He knows already but the problem is that he over uses sound effects which makes his guitar playing sound bad.
If he actually knew how to play, it would ruin his sound.
Wow😳
Wait wait wait! You mean Wes Montgomery was playing out of tune?
Please somebody could explain that to me?
Personally I always felt that something was wrong on the guitar, that f.... some many moments of inspiration....
If that fretboard is the only one in tune why you use other ones?
