11:32
Usman, the official story is that
12
676391
2401
Усман, официалната история е,
11:34
you learned to play the guitar
13
678792
1480
че си се научил да свириш на китара,
11:36
by watching Jimmy Page on YouTube.
14
680272
1983
като си гледал Джими Пейдж по YouTube.
11:38
Usman Riaz: Yes, that was the first one. And then I --
15
682255
3172
Усман Риаз: Да, той беше първият. След това --
11:41
That was the first thing I learned,
16
685427
2296
това беше първото нищо, което научих,
11:43
and then I started progressing to other things.
17
687723
2631
и след това започнах да се усъвършенствам.
11:46
And I started watching Kaki King a lot,
18
690354
3039
Гледах много пъти Каки Кинг
11:49
and she would always cite Preston Reed as a big influence,
19
693393
3753
и тя винаги казваше, че Престън Рийд й е оказал голямо влияние,
11:53
so then I started watching his videos,
20
697146
2144
така че после започнах да гледам видео клиповете му,
11:55
and it's very surreal right now to be --
21
699290
3244
и е много сюрреалистично да бъда --
11:58
(Laughter)
22

CA: Was that piece just now,
24
709395
1772
КА: Това парче преди малко,
12:07
that was one of his songs that you learned, or how did that happen?
25
711167
3190
не беше ли една от песните му, които си научил, или как се случи това?
12:10
UR: I'd never learned it before,
26
714357
1096
УР: Не я знаех преди,
12:11
but he told me that we would be playing that on stage,
27
715453
3017
но той ми каза, че ще я свирим на сцената,
12:14
so I was familiar with it, so that's why I had so much more fun learning it.
28
718470
4391
така че бях запознат с нея, и затова се забавлявах толкова много докато я учех.
12:18
And it finally happened, so ...
29
722861
2688
И най-накрая това се случи, така че ...
12:21
(Laughter)
30
725549
1452
(Смях)
12:22
CA: Preston, from your point of view,
31
727001
1452
КА: Престън, от твоя гледна точка,
12:24
I mean, you invented this like 20 years ago, right?
32
728453
1864
искам да кажа, че ти измисли това преди около 20 години, нали?
12:26
How does it feel to see someone like this
33
730317
2848
Как се чувстваш, когато видиш някой
12:29
come along taking your art and doing so much with it?
34
733165
4700
да прекопира изкуството ти и да направи толкова много с него?
12:33
Preston Reed: It's mind-blowing,
35
737865
2349
Престън Рийд: Това е удивително
12:36
and I feel really proud, really honored.
36
740214
3295
и се чувствам наистина горд, наистина поласкан.
12:39
And he's a wonderful musician, so it's cool.
37
743509
5504
Той е прекрасен музикант, така че, това е страхотно.
12:44
(Laughter)
38

12:47
CA: I guess, I don't think there is like a one-minute other piece you guys can do?
39
751933
5312
КА: Предполагам, има ли някое друго кратко парче, което можете да изсвирите?
12:53
Can you? Do you jam? Do you have anything else?
40
757245
2432
Можете ли? Импровизирате ли? Имате ли нещо друго?
12:55
PR: We haven't prepared anything.
41
759677
2782
ПР: Не сме подготвили нищо друго.
12:58
CA: There isn't. I'll tell you what.
42
762459

КА: Няма. Ето какво ще ви кажа.
13:02
If you have another 30 or 40 seconds,
43
766773
3561
Ако имате 30 - 40 секунди
13:06
and you have another 30 or 40 seconds,
44
770334
1423
и имате още 30 - 40 секунди,
13:07
and we just see that, I just think --
45
771757
1528
и току-що видяхме това, просто мисля --
13:09
I can feel it. We want to hear a little more.
46
773285
2816
мога да го усетя. Искаме да чуем още малко.
13:12
And if it goes horribly wrong, no worries.
47
776101

Ако прозвучи ужасно, не се безпокойте.

ABOUT THE SPEAKERS
Preston Reed - Revolutionary GuitaristPreston Reed’s hands have an otherworldly coordination. The fingers, nails, thumbs, and palms of both left and right dance, pluck, strum, and slap his guitar, which bursts with a full sound.
Why you should listen
Most guitarists the world over play their instruments in essentially the same way: the left hand holds the neck and applies pressure to each string to change notes, while the right hand plays the melody. Not so with Preston Reed.
In the 1980s, Reed began playing his instrument in new ways, sometimes twisting his left hand to pick out a melody while the right hand strummed accompaniment or tapping the guitar’s body like a drum. A new playing style was born, with deep chords, complex percussion, and weightless melodies. And he's inspired new generations of guitarists to further innovate on the genre he pioneered.
