Staff Benda Bilili are like nothing you have ever seen or heard before. A group of paraplegic street musicians who live in and around the grounds of the zoo in Kinshasa, Congo, they make music of astonishing power and beauty. The band’s mesmerising rumba-rooted grooves, overlaid with vibrant vocals, remind you at times of Cuban nonchalance, at other times of the Godfather of Soul himself. You can hear echoes of old-school rhythm and blues, then reggae, then no-holds barred funk. Four senior singer/guitarists sitting on spectacularly customized tricycles, occasionally dancing on the floor of the stage, arms raised in joyful supplication, are the core of the band, backed by a younger, all-acoustic, rhythm section pounding out tight beats. Over the top of this are weird, infectious guitar-like solos performed by young Roger Landu, (an ex-street kid the band took under their wing), who plays a one-string electric lute he designed and built himself out of a tin can.
The lyrics of the Staff Benda Bilili are wise, ironical advice to the people who live in the streets. In Lingala, “Benda Billi” means “look beyond appearances”.
Entitled “Très Très Fort” (‘Very Very Strong’… or ‘Very Very Loud’), their first album was produced by Vincent Kenis (already responsible for introducing and producing Konono N°1, Kasaï Allstars and the Congotronics series). The songs were recorded out in the open, mainly in the zoological garden near centre ville. The album will be released in Feb/March 2009.
The physical version of the album contains video bonuses directed by Belle Kinoise aka Florent de la Tullaye and Renaud Barret, who discovered the band while they were filming their “Jupiter’s Dance” documentary in Kinshasa. Florent and Renaud have been documenting the story of the band since 2004, and are working on a feature-length film devoted to the life of Staff Benda Bilili, from the sidewalks of Kinshasa to their (upcoming) first concerts in Europe.

We’ve heard that it’s normal for people’s bills to have doubled and even tripled this winter because of the increase in oil prices and because it’s been the coldest winter in 9 years. Have you experienced this to be true?
Electricity in San Antonio is regulated, but areas that are deregulated (such as Dallas and Houston, where residents have the power to choose their electric provider) are also seeing an increase in their electricity bill. This is due to the record breaking cold temperatures during the winter months. You’re not alone, there are many people who saw their electricity bills sky-rocket because of their need to keep warm.

- Greg Lake / vocals, bass, electric & acoustic guitar

I thought I should re-write this to clarify a few things! 
My sister filmed me (thanks Naomi !). Both the white and black frames are me! I am playing the guitar and piano….
But both of my sisters are very musically gifted…probably even more than me ! It may be a while though before I can get them to join me in a video 
)
This song was on the season premiere of The Hills and it’s available for download on iTunes !!
I busted out my electric guitar for the first time in a video and now I think it’s time for me to buy some fancy pedals so i can start messing around with distortion ! YEA !!

I have a few more Video’s on Youtube. Take a look!!
Too Far Gone
So you come to me
For rest In my heart
Rest in my home
Thats all you want
I havent seen you lately
But you still call me baby
What about my name
Still I stand to save your soul
Yes I stand to save your soul
Before you’re too far gone
Before nothing can be done
When I should have lied and
When I should have tried and
When I had no fight in me and
The whole world was screaming hold on
Screaming hold on
So I come to you
For rest in your heart
Rest in your home
Its what you want
Well you learnt to hate me
But you still call me baby
I guess you forgot my name
Still I stand to save your soul
Yes I stand to save your soul
Before you’re too far gone
Before nothing can be done
When I should have lied and
When I should have tried and
When I had no fight in me and
The whole world was screaming hold on
Screaming hold on
Girl you got it all so hold on
But you got it all so wrong
Girl you got it all so hold on
But you’re just too far gone

I think the electricity bills are fluctuating on the variations of the annual prices, depending on economic and political reasons. You can find the generalized price of each house hold consumption in the following web.

Tapping time!
The second One-on-one Masterclass lesson! This time we will look at tapping à la Eddie Van Halen/Randy Rhoads/Kirk Hammett.
Tapping has to be one of the most popular techniques on the electric guitar – and why wouldn’t it be? It’s easy to play fast, easy to improvise with, looks very difficult – not to mention it sounds terrifyingly cool!
If you feel your technique isn’t evolving as fast as you would like it to, you must give tapping shot. I have taught my beginner students this specific pattern – and they have come back after a week playing it perfectly.
They also usually wonder why I have been telling them that mastering the guitar is a life long dedication – they learned to play fast over a week with tapping, didn’t they?! So the three step method of the lesson should hopefully get any beginner started with this flashy technique.
Enough said, tapping is a versatile technique and it can be devloppped into extremely complexe high-tech patterns (Jennifer Batten, Steve Lynch etc.).
In this lesson we will also look at a further elaboration of the standard tapping technique which allows the intermediate/advanced guitarist to create further evariations and improvisations.
The full lesson is available at www.guitarmasterclass.net
Good luck
