Raspberry Jams (A Collection Of Demos/Songs & Ideas On Guitar) - Jason Becker

A Legendary Video of a Legendary Guitarist

Advantages: It gives you the ability to go back in time and witness the world's greatest guitarist at work.
Disadvantages: Not many... The quality isn't the best, but it's fine for 20-year-old footage.

Jason Becker has been my favorite guitarist for quite some time. Unfortunately, I wasn't even alive while he was in his prime, but luckily there exists this DVD that may help any and all fans of fantastic music, guitar, motor neuron diseases (ALS), or perhaps getting in a few good laughs. Jason was and still is a musical genius. Due to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (also known as 'Lou Gehrig's Disease') Jason can no longer move nor speak. The majority of this video is from a clinic whereat Mr. Becker demonstrated his skills to the students of AIM (Atlanta Institute of Music) and now all of us! It took place in 1989, but it also has clips from one of Jason's high school performances as he plays Yngwie Malmsteen's famous "Black Star" flawlessly and with his own additions. This film also contains footage of his unforgettable yo-yoing-while-shredding-on-guitar ...

Review of The Legendary Guitar Of Jason Becker (DVD)

Berry Fast Raspberry Jam

Advantages: quick, simple and cheap to make
Disadvantages: none

I hate waste. I have a tendency to buy too many raspberries when they're in season (strawberries too). So at my grandmother's suggestion I tried making raspberry jam with left over raspberries that had gone a bit soft (this is also a great way to use raspberries or other berry fruit that you may have picked up cheap because its on or close to its sell by date). The cheapest place to buy raspberries is usually Asda, Tesco or Lidl. You can use frozen ones (this works out the cheapest option of all, 99p for 1kg in most supermarkets), but you must defrost them thoroughly before placing in the oven. Ingredients:- 250g raspberries 250g caster sugar (if you don't have caster sugar, use normal sugar and put it through a blender to make the grain size finer) A clean empty glass jar with lid (minimum size 300ml) Method ...

Review of Recipes for Jams and Preserves

Tasty Cream and Raspberry Jam

Advantages: Wonderful Taste, Suitable For Whole Family
Disadvantages: Packaging

the right of the pictures. Rest of the writings are in deep blue started with the proud brand logo of "Fox's" on the caramel background on the left. It also shows just above the brand logo that Fox's are in business since 1853. The package describes the jam as real raspberry jam which makes it a real scrumptious treat. With these writings and pictures on the front, it ends up with the yellow flash at the right corner of the pack "69p" for my most recent pack from Somerfield. The pack is full of other information too. On the back, there is "Nutrition Information", "Guideline for Daily Amount", List of "Ingredients", "Storage Instruction", "Manufacturer's Contact Information" etc. I should describe a little of everything so that you may find it helpful to review these information before you buy it. I think they have enough information on a small ...
