    tortoise make me feel cooler than i really am

    brilliant piece by the way, it is probably inspired by Ennio Morricone (at least the first part), and it has a very "cinematic" feeling. One of the best pieces by Tortoise, in my opinion.

    I Love this song so much, Latin feelings but a little bit sad. Tortoise is one of the most favorite bands on earth. They are awesome.

    Damnit, I love these guys. This song is one of my particular favorites of theirs. The melodies are astounding. Just fan-damn-tastic.

    Glass Museum used to be my favourite. Then I heard this.
    Along the Banks of Rivers is good too.

  • @timjmoran
    @timjmoran 16 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    yes.. it is a semi-hollowbody..it's a Gibson ES -335.Nice guitar..and Parker is a really good guitarist,too!Love Tortoise..I think it's amazing how they sound like no one else

    • @gibderm

      A lot of research bring me to the belief that his “bass” is actually a baritone guitar

    Ever heard of Lucid Rivers?

  • @GiovanniCarusonrgiga
    @GiovanniCarusonrgiga 16 ปีที่แล้ว

    ...Ennio Morricone...it's easy to find his evidence here (and in a lot of other T. works)...what surprised me was to find out that they know and love Franco Battiato. Totally unexpected..

  • @Satiaraha
    @Satiaraha 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    THE FIRST ONE IS A ES-335 and the second one is a FENDER VI that actually is a baritone guitar but by many other people is conceder in like a sixth bass
    a JAGUAR give you the same tone

  • @MisterHPlays
    @MisterHPlays 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @dsmidl I think mostly in their range of instrumentation, and that they have a strong improv feel, but alot more laid back and jazzy in my opinion.

  • @Satiaraha
    @Satiaraha 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    very close my friend is a FENDER VI wich is a varitone guitar or like many people said is a bass

    @Aspartamebraintumor: Yes-well spotted! A "Fender Six",essentially a baritone guitar.Pretty rare,and often just presumed to be a Jaguar by the casual observer.

  • @hogalicious
    @hogalicious 17 ปีที่แล้ว

    This song is not called "I Set My Face To The Hillside". I believe it is a version of "Along The Banks Of Rivers".

    A Fender Bass VI

  • @hogalicious
    @hogalicious 17 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yup, you're right. Turns out that the song I thought was called "I Set My Face To The Hillside" is really called "Ten Day Interval". A complex way of explaining a simple mistake. My bad!

    • @ibelieveicansoar
      @ibelieveicansoar 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Scenic - Acquatica (1996); anything by Anouar Brahem / Anouar Brahem Trio; anything by Cul De Sac, especially the album China Gate (1996) and its song “Nepenthe”; Macha’s self-titled album (1998), the instrumentals on Eric Clapton’s Rush soundtrack (1991); anything by Dirty Three; the song “Nomad” by the Aqua Velvets (1996). The Scenic and Macha albums in particular are two of the most mind-bogglingly brilliant ones I’ve ever heard.

    Not bad. I think they could've been more tight with the vibraphone work at the end. Both players sounded like they were rushing it.

    Unfortunately, they don't use the harmonica, which adds so much to the album version. Without that harmonica chime, this live version seems awkward.
