Why no bands on "the charts". Robert Epstein explains our "Google-fied" world. Mr. Pittsburgh: Selling guitar to the Wolf, What happened to The Donnas? The History or Distortion: https://www.guitarworld.com/features/the-evolution-of-distortion-how-advances-in-gear-paved-the-way-for-heavy-music https://thejhsshow.com/articles/what-you-need-to-know-about-overdrive-pedals The history of distortion is deeply intertwined with the development of the electric guitar, as the two evolved together to shape the sound of modern music. Here's an overview: ### **Early Days: Accidental Origins (1940s-1950s)** Distortion originally came about as a mistake. In the 1940s and early 1950s, guitarists accidentally discovered that pushing tube amplifiers beyond their normal limits created a gritty, overdriven sound. This was typically caused by damaged speaker cones or malfunctioning amp circuits. Guitarists like Willie Johnson of Howlin' Wolf and bluesmen such as Elmore James and Muddy Waters were among the early users of this overdriven tone, which gave their sound more power and raw emotion. ### **First Deliberate Use: 1950s-1960s** By the late 1950s, guitarists started to intentionally seek out distorted sounds. Link Wray, known for his 1958 instrumental "Rumble," achieved distortion by poking holes in his amplifier's speaker cone. This gave the song a unique, menacing tone that laid the foundation for rock and roll's aggressive edge. In 1961, the first commercially available distortion device, the Maestro Fuzz-Tone pedal (FZ-1), was created by Gibson, famously used in The Rolling Stones' 1965 hit "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction." This marked a pivotal moment in the history of guitar distortion, as fuzz became a sought-after effect in rock music. ### **The Rise of Fuzz and Overdrive (1960s-1970s)** The 1960s saw distortion evolve further with the fuzz effect. Artists like Jimi Hendrix and Keith Richards popularized fuzz pedals, using them to achieve a thick, saturated tone. Hendrix, especially, made innovative use of distortion in tracks like “Purple Haze,” helping to push the boundaries of what was possible with the electric guitar. Around the same time, the concept of overdrive became more refined. Instead of extreme fuzz, overdrive pedals like the Ibanez Tube Screamer simulated the natural distortion that tube amps produced when cranked to high volumes. This allowed guitarists to achieve warm, harmonically rich distortion at lower volumes, making it more versatile for different styles of playing. ### **Heavy Metal and High-Gain Amplifiers (1970s-1980s)** In the 1970s and 1980s, distortion became even heavier as bands like Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, and later Metallica pushed the limits of gain. Marshall amplifiers, known for their high-gain tone, became the go-to choice for hard rock and metal bands, allowing for more sustained and aggressive sounds. Guitarists like Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath) and Eddie Van Halen were known for their iconic distorted tones, which relied heavily on both amp overdrive and distortion pedals. ### **The Modern Era: Digital Distortion (1990s-Present)** In the 1990s, digital technology revolutionized distortion. Digital pedals and multi-effects units began to emulate the classic sounds of tube amps and analog pedals with greater precision. This era also saw the rise of more extreme metal genres that demanded even more distortion and gain, pushing pedal manufacturers to create high-gain stompboxes like the Boss Metal Zone. Today, digital amplifiers and software (e.g., Line 6 Helix, Kemper Profiling Amp) allow guitarists to access a wide range of distortion tones, from vintage fuzz to modern high-gain sounds, all in one device. Players can easily shape their sound using a combination of analog and digital tools, blending the warmth of traditional New & Notable: Loudini: The Damn Truth; Love Out Of Luck Mr Pittsburgh: The Warning; Six Feet Deep

We're back for season six with a special conversation with a true blues and world music legend, Taj Mahal. Touring in his seventh decade behind nearly fifty albums and counting (including fourteen Grammy nominations) we dive into his new LP Swingin' Live At The Church In Tulsa, how he toured with the Rolling Stones Rock n Roll Circus in the 1970s, and how classics like “Statesboro Blues” from his iconic 1968 self-titled record inspired groups like the Allman Brothers to bring the blues to a new generation of listeners. Born Henry St. Claire Fredericks Jr to a renown jazz arranger and gospel singer, Taj Mahal is one of the first mainstream artists to champion world music - sharing his passion for the music of Mali, Jamaica and especially Hawaii with his rowdy audiences around the world.

Together, we'll revisit and give our take on the Beatles' latest tune, "Now and Then". We'll even let our imaginations run wild with a fantastical Beatles' song titled "Your Mom Loves You,". We tip our hats to the Rolling Stones “Rock and Roll Circus”. Recorded in December 1968 but not released until 1996. We pull back the curtain on performances by The Who, The Dirty Mac, Taj Mahal, and of course The Rolling Stones revealing the magic that made these legendary bands a timeless part of rock history.Lastly, we'll steer our time machine to the electric 1980s, where we'll pay homage to the unique talents of artists like Mars Williams and Billy Idol. Unearthing memories of a 1984 concert, we'll take you behind the scenes of how Williams' saxophone skill added an unexpected twist to Idol's hit, "Catch My Fall." Join us as we analyze Idol's iconic album "Rebel YELL" and its pivotal role in defining his career. Additionally, we'll touch upon the timeless rock sound of The Cars and The Who's album "Who Are You." So, buckle up and let's hit the road on this unforgettable musical journey!
