This episode is about one of the things that launched us homo sapiens on our journey toward making music, which would eventually get us to the guitar. That one thing is our feet, which is really two things.
When we evolved into beings who could walk upright, we introduced something new into our lives. Becaming bipedal, millions of years ago, gave us one of the foundations of music, and Disco, and CPR. It also helped to make our brains bigger, which made us smarter, and our walking feet and bigger brains and smarter noggins pointed us toward music.
Every episode of A People's History of the Guitar gets a playlist. Sometimes related to the episode, sometimes about guitar-based music from around the world that I love and want you to hear. Sometimes both. This one's about walkin'
And...it's time to ask for support. If the idea of a podcast about the history of the guitar that's also a story of humans and our music sounds interesting, I agree. I'm in need of resources for travel, research, equipment, and this podcast has to pay for itself.
Help me get this project launched...for real, and empowered to deliver 3-4 episodes every month, as I ramp it up. You can do that with a one-time contribution or subscription at aphotguitar@gmail.com.
Thanks for checking out this new project, and for thinking about supporting the idea. I really want to see where this goes, and I hope you do, too.
