THE MOVIE: It Might Get Loud – NY Times Review

September 14, 2009 By GuitarDaddy

ItMightGetLoudCoverThe movie is making quite the BUZZ in the guitar world… but what about the mainstream media?

Guitar World Magazine will have a feature story, as will most of the other guitar-focused publications on the newstand.

The NY Times posted their official review, and some of the snippets are worth reading…

IT MIGHT GET LOUD
GUYS WITH GUITARS, TRADING RIFFS AND METAPHYSICAL MUSINGS
By A. O. SCOTT

[Edit] The mystique of the electric guitar is as durable as anything in rock ’n’ roll. Whenever the power chord or the screaming solo seems destined for oblivion, it’s rescued and revived, either by a new generation of players or, as has been the case more recently, by a video game… [edit]

[edit]… The movie assembles a representative power trio made up of Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin, the Edge of U2 and Jack White, most famously of the White Stripes.

MightGetLoudInterview and archival clips are interspersed with a summit meeting, half jam session, half graduate seminar in guitar metaphysics, on a soundstage loaded with all kinds of cool equipment. The guitarists trade riffs and thoughts and at the end make their way through an acoustic rendition of “The Weight.” It is both stirring and amusing to see three superstars strumming along to this song, originally recorded by the Band.. [edit]

Each man has a different relationship to the musical past, and also to technology. Mr. White, a traditionalist wary of digital effects and innovations, is nonetheless as much given to tinkering as the Edge, who finds lyricism in complicated sonic treatments and modifications, or Mr. Page, famous for playing a double-necked guitar [edit].

For rock geeks of any age or taste, the lore in this documentary will be catnip. But “It Might Get Loud” is more than a narrowly focused fan artifact. It gives those of us with tin ears and clumsy fingers a chance to linger in the presence of serious artists with formidable chops and big, if not always clearly expressed, ideas about what they do. And it will put you in the mood to listen.

It Might Get Loud…

August 9, 2009 By GuitarDaddy

The documentary film titled “It Might Get Loud” focuses on the history of the electric guitar as seen from the point of view of three significant guitarists: Led Zeppelin’s Jimmy Page, U2’s The Edge and the White Stripes’ Jack White.

Watch the trailer to see how the movie tells the personal stories of three generations of electric guitar virtuosos. The movie reveals how each one developed his own unique sound and style of playing. It concentrates on the artists by traveling with them to influential locations and sharing rare and candid discussions as to how and why they write and play their individual styles of music.

It Might Get Loud!

March 28, 2009 By GuitarDaddy

A new documentary film takes a close look at 3 guitar players from different generations. The tag line is: “A Documentary on the Electric Guitar From the Point of View of Three Rock Legends”.

Who are the 3 players? The Edge, Jimmy Page and Jack White!

it-might-get-loud-jam“It Might Get Loud” covers how each of the guitarists first got started playing guitar, who their influences were and how they got together with their respective bands

There is an exclusive review of the film at www.musicradar.com.

From the official web site… “It Might Get Loud” isn’t like any other rock n roll documentary. Filmed through the eyes of three virtuosos from three different generations, audiences get up close and personal, discovering how a furniture upholsterer from Detroit, a studio musician and painter from London and a seventeen-year-old Dublin schoolboy, each used the electric guitar to develop their unique sound and rise to the pantheon of superstar. Rare discussions are provoked as we travel with Jimmy Page, The Edge and Jack White to influential locations of their pasts.”

The film’s Official Web Site has limited information, but I promise to keep the blog updated as new news becomes available! The film is set to release on August 21, 2009.
