Cool,huh? Love that 360! The band in that film is The Mops,sorta the japanese Yardbirds who,not surprisingly,later became the japanese Led Zeppelin. Oh,and did you recognize the actor at the end of the clip?If you are a Woody Allen fan you would recognize him from his role as Phil Moskowitz in "What's Up Tiger Lily?"



More fuzzed out Rickenbacker 360 action in Japan circa 1968

I hadn't thought about it too much until now, but Japanese rock'n'roll really works using the pentatonic scale that guitarists love so much, and the Japanese penchant for using that same scale for melodic invention.
