[OutVoice] [gayguitarists] Re: Congratulations OutVoice March 2010 Top Ten Songs

Congrats to all -


Verily, Roger's gender-bending "I Wanna Know" doth truly rock. My inspiration for the 6/8 blues shuffle tempo and guitar arrangements on this tune is Jeff Beck's cover of the Willie Dixon classic "I Ain't Superstitious" from the first Jeff Beck album TRUTH (wherein the wah-wah is engaged but kept in the low position - thus whilst ripping the guts outta the guitar produces that lovely, southern-fried "squonky" sound). 


"I Wanna Know"'s bombastic finale is pure Pete Townshend pinwheel bulldozer chords combined with multi-layered infinite-sustain guitar lines ala Robert Fripp.


And of course the icing on the cake is Roger's holy-rollin', gospel-rock wailing vocal throughout.
