Jim Marshall passed away last week but the mighty roar of his guitar amplifiers lives on.  He was known as the father of loud and indeed his amps provided exactly what rockers like Pete Townsend of The Who needed – distortion and power. 

Check out the video below where I give a quick tour of the sound of Marshall.  As you’ll discover, there’s more than one “flavour” of loud.
