He’s a lot of fun to play with. Rumor is that Gilmour records his parts at staggering volume. And on a lot of his solo work it’s more piecemeal, like bringing a song in and building it. Are you on the lookout for anything in particular? I still use mine in the show. Instead, we tried to choose songs from across genres that speak to something indescribable and primal and that can get a conversation started. He’d put a little blackface Fender Champ with two microphones out there, and most of the time we’d just plug in and move the mics around to find a sweet spot in the room for a particular song. And of course, the Broadcaster I used on the first two albums, I still use. I tell you one guitar I want to find; Mike has a couple of different Vox guitars that have the built-in repeaters and fuzztones, and a palm wah. Our drummer at the time, Stan Lynch, and Ron Blair, our bass player, who had both played in other bands in Florida, were in L.A. I’m very much in love with the early-’60s Fenders. Now before you EVH fans get to getting your hopes up, let’s bear in mind the same ol’s: 1. Bath How old were you when you started writing songs? It was his concept, and he came to each of us. Campbell digs into a ’67 Rickenbacker 360. Tom Petty often refers to guitarist Mike Campbell as his secret weapon. Pay me back later.” So I was lucky to get that guitar… I didn’t pay her back for like five years. Yeah, it’s about time, you know? Well, they all make a different sound, you know? 1970s Les Paul Custom Jeff Slate is a NYC-based solo singer-songwriter and music journalist. Though the white one is a custom shop model. Those few years of collaboration really made me come back to the band with a more experienced, wider scale of music to work with. As the song ends, you acknowledge George a bit. And that’s really always been our approach! Then Mick got stuck with it, and when we started working with Rick, we needed a song. By 1995, Weller was in the midst of a career resurgence and Britpop was ascendant. We get them because we love them as pieces of art and we use them on our records. You get what I’m saying. The cool thing about the guitars on that record, the electric guitars anyway, was that some were recorded direct. Weller took the lead, with Gallagher in a supporting role, and delivered a glorious, tone-drenched solo that took a really good song into the stratosphere. Note that these songs are presented in no particular order. Comfortably Numb, Wish You Were Here, even On An Island: the list of songs that are lifted from great to astonishing by David Gilmour’s signature tone is a long one. We may not have the songs or the hits, but there is a purity in a room with a band that’s got a sound and is playing to a small group, and it’s all happening in this little room – to me, that is where rock n’ roll is still alive. And there was a couple of Gibson J-45s. And play it guitarist Steve Cropper does. And there’s something to be said for the aesthetic qualities of a bunch of them, as opposed to one…. (Specs Below). So I suggested to the drummer from my band, “Go try out.” And he brought them over to our house and it turned out they had lost their guitar player, so he said, “There’s a guy here who plays.” So I sat in, and we both joined Mudcrutch that same day. Both instantly recognizable and impossible to imitate, Gilmour in many ways is the sound of post-Syd Barrett Pink Floyd. I think I was 16. Nowhere is that more evident then on this ode to Barrett and the madness he succumbed to, from the band’s 1975 album Wish You Were Here. And who else… there aren’t too many new/younger bands that I listen to much. And then I started to move forward. There were some long friendships made there. > Here’s the “You Got Lucky” vid (can’t embed). And I don’t know if I ever really learned much on it – I couldn’t figure out how to tune it. I may not love it – in a way I kinda do, though – but I get it. > Here’s a live version (also can’t embed), with the solo on a modified Tele, starting at about 2:00. Cropper delivered the goods on countless hits from the era. As time went on, I was able to afford guitars – which I now buy a lot just because I love collecting them, and I play them all. Many of the axes he has are used have a one specific purpose, so we’ll only be looking at his main guitar, which is the Duesenberg Mike Campbell signature. I (used) a Martin 12-string from the ’70s a little bit. So I have to give Tom credit for talking me down the other path. There was a problem. Do you consider yourself a guitar collector? So, the next time I talked to Tom, I told him about this guy we might want to work with. Yeah, with a 12-string I need a little more room at the end. Yeah, well… is was back in days of the Vietnam draft, and I had drawn a really low number, so I knew I was going to be called if I dropped out. The first couple of albums, I had a Broadcaster and Les Paul, and I’d gotten a Rickenbacker 660/12 for 120 bucks – it’s the one on the Damn The Torpedoes cover. I’ve only bought things that I actually play. Considering his notoriety, George Harrison is still probably one of the most underrated guitar players in recorded history. And those are the things I end up going back and listening to again, more than the newer stuff. Benmont played a lot of keyboards on it. It’s a loose and sprawling jam, and its live nature showcases Hendrix’s virtuosity in a way that probably no other studio recording of his can match. */ He was an amazing person. Unauthorized replication or use is strictly prohibited. Guitar lovers can argue about Clapton or Beck or Vaughan or whomever. Is there any particular guitarist who influenced the way you play guitar? So you’re talking in terms of length of time you’re out, as opposed to the size of the venues? They were thinking maybe you’d like to play guitar on it.” Well, the idea scared the s*** out of me, but I went down to the studio with my little Marshall, set it up, and they put the track on. Your parents bought your first guitar, a Stella acoustic. How about the difference from a listener’s perspective? And again, we have a lot of songs to record. I like Wildflowers, which we did with Rick Rubin in 1994, because he was fun to work with. Instead of playing music in the living room, we took it to the studio. And even years before the Beatles played on “Ed Sullivan,” your aunt took you to a movie set, where you saw Elvis. And amongst fans, he’s a hero who, while keeping them entertained through parts of four decades, has battled to hold down the retail prices of his albums and concert tickets. We grew up doing this (laughs)! It’s a challenge to make your statement in a short amount of time, but I prefer that challenge as opposed to just stretching out.
