Location: Blue Ridge Mountains | I have just about worn out the first CD by Orianthi Panagaris and now her next CD "Believe" is set to be released on Oct. 27...this is the guitarist from the Grammy awards show performance w/Carrie Underwood and Michael Jackson's guitarist for the "This Is It" tour (that was it)...She is signed w/Geffen Records and 19 Entertainment...and she rocks!
Her first single is "According to You" of which I have a promo copy: it is incredible!
Here is a taste of her talent on "Now or Never"
"Now or Never"
Carlos Santana summed it up best with this quote:
It's not cure anymore; it's seriously ass whupping 24 years old....incredible! |

Here is the start of a seven part YouTube set with Orianthi and Carlos from 2006.
Get them while they are young, and they will not stray when they grow old! :cool: |

Location: Tennessee | Hey Moody! I think we've cruised all those places in that Now or Never video! And you can see my hometown in the background of the beach scene. :cool:
As far as the music ... yawn. The video was formulaic pubescent pop. Nothing groundbreaking or even interesting about it. The guitar work? Fine, but I heard that sound and all those licks a thousand times over in the 70's and 80's. Time to get over it. I'll take Susan Tedeschi any day of the week.
Just my opinion. |

That girl should have a newly manufactured Breadwinner in her hands. Heck, put a Hamer logo on it if you must. Upgrade the product with modern finishes and offer modern pickups. |

Location: Right now? | Thanks for posting that, MM. I really wasn't that familiar with her (so much music so little time), but I had seen that video before. When I saw Orianthi perform with Santana, I thought she was his daughter. Maybe she's his love child ...
Susan Tedeschi is great. I have a lot of her stuff. I love the way she sings "Lost Lover Blue's" & "Hurts So Bad"
;)

I listened to the links in this thread last night and thought; well she can play a lot of notes but can she play one note.
Nice looking girl and really slick player but the music is totally empty IMO. Maybe she'll get better if and when she has something to write about or if she hooks up with someone who has something to write about. |

I got it... She needs to live on the streets, be a junkie, and spend some time in the slammer...
Y'know White Folks don't have the Soul for the Blues. (And she is awfully White!)
Even Carlos sez that she needs some time to develop her own Style. |

| I can’t ever see Clapton as a blues player; more of a british poser just imitating the blues whereas Winter is part of the long line of real bluesmen. Clapton could record Happy Birthday and it would be a hit but he’s not the real deal IMO anyway. |

I don't know if she's a guitar goddess, but I wouldn't kick her out of my band either. |
