"Had bangs. Please, and make no mention of it. And see who and see who says, what the? What the hell are you doing, man? What if we get you a series of wigs, each has more hair than the last, and you start slow and every day, you just get a little bit more in all truth. Tell them the Marv Albert story. Yeah, there's and I know a guy locally that was a TV personality, and he had the three wigs. Yep. So it would look like he'd gotten a haircut. Full, full wigs. Looked like he just got a haircut, looked like he needed the haircut and looked like he was way past needing to get. We were just having this conversation off the air you'll find out who your real Friends are. Yes. And I have had the situation in which someone I've known for quite some time suddenly showed up with a full head of hair and didn't say anything. What did you say something? No, I mean, this is extraordinarily. I can remember exactly where I was. On the fairgrounds. Hi. I'm not that guy. Like if someone has food in their teeth, I can't tell them. You can't? I can't. I absolutely can't. Because I would want them to tell me. Exactly. I could have said to him, hey, you used to look like Phil Collins. Now you look like Jeff Beck, what the hell happened? I'm sorry. Once again, incredibly relatable. What do you have back who sadly just died? He had great hair. But he died of old age, I think. I think he was close to 80, but the point is he had bangs and jet black hair at 80. Yeah, he did. Possibly from a bottle. That was a wig. I probably hair Diana was aware. If you were gonna go with a wig, do you want the Jeff Beck cut? Do you want like a kind of just like a regular newscaster kind of cut, like a Rachel maddow thing? Rachel. I go with the Rachel maddow. I'm either Rachel maddow or I'm John Mayer in 2020. I think I'd go with almost waste length reggae twists. Like don't we have that picture of me, my senior high school, where my bangs are at the top of my eyes and my hair is down to my shoulder. And yeah. And not in this picture. I look, what's the word? Ridiculous. Oh, that was the time. I had the red blazer on for we were red and white, of course. That's a nice. It's time to get back to sports. But before we get back to chick, I got another thing from William. So we're not going back to sport. Yeah, this is sports related. Do you not know the background on this one, Willie? It's about buying candles. So this is pretty cool. We're talking to will ghost and he is a defensive end. Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He's the man. I asked him any big major purchases thinking he'd say like a Hummer or a pet zebra. Let's say like the motor vehicle. Yeah, exactly. Here we go. Is there any dumb purchase you made after your first contract? Yeah. There's a bunch of them. But the dumbest thing I bought. I spent a lot of money on candles,

"It's on stage. Exactly. We were like all trying to count our different parts and of course from the Arctic yesterday. And it's like, I've definitely got the simplest job by far. But yeah, everyone else is like counting in 6s and 7s and rounds of 8 and someone was talking about rounds of 11 or something. Like 11 restart their part of the leather bar. I think that was wrong as well. It does get confusing. But it's like, I guess we are a jam band in that sense. I don't want to rule out us making music any other way. Any stage, like I think it might be really interesting for us at some point to make record in a completely different way. We've talked about before maybe, you know, you can kind of keep the essence of being a jam band and go into the studio without any songs and just start completely from scratch. We're all really interested in taking a risk like that. It might completely fail, but that's what's kind of exciting about it. Well, people forget, you know, there's jam bands like Matthews or something, a fish, and then there's like can. Right. Well, we could just talk to dry cleaning all day, mister cod. But we have to let you guys go. I never even got to ask Nick about what it's like to be a boy in a band. Let me tell you no idea. So nobody ever talks about that. That's right. We've been talking to Florence Shaw and Nick buxton of dry cleaning, I am so excited about the new album. Thank you. Thank you for making us smile. Thank you. Absolutely pleasure. It's been really nice talking to you. Yeah. New Zealand France, Switzerland, nothing to Exeter Egypt. It won't do it to cry about it. That wraps up our conversation with dry cleaning and what a pleasure it was. Now we want to hear from you. What? Art is your favorite.

That is a little bit of shapes of things by The Yardbirds with Jeff Beck on guitar, an amazing guitarist, died at the age of 78 on January 10th. Nobody saw that one coming. No. You know, talk about a guy, you know, you talk about the decadence of 60s rockstars. Jeff Beck was a clean living dude, you know? Auto mechanic. He loved his cars. He lived a clean life. He was in great form right up to the very end. He was touring and recording regularly over the course of a 50 year career. So this was quite a stunning piece of music. Well, and despite the amount of psychedelic influence in those really great yardbird singles, like the one we bumped in with, not known as a druggie, and really kind of a grounded fellow, but what a perfect mixture of psychedelic and blues. Absolutely. You know, The Yardbirds he was only in the yardbird for a couple of years. He replaced Clapton famously replaced Eric Clapton, who thought The Yardbirds weren't bluesy enough for him, so he went on to the bluesbreakers. Beck took The Yardbirds from being kind of a purest blues rock band into that psychedelic realm, as you mentioned, noise avant garde music. He was bringing all that to the guitar. You know, I would say that people like Bo Diddley, Paul burleson, pat hair, these 50s, greats. Reinvented the guitar in terms of incorporating noise and dissonance and feedback into what they were doing, but back to a completely different level, years before Hendrix got on the scene, you know? This whole idea of sculpting noise that using sort of a methodology about how to play that feedback and that noise and sculpting it into almost compositionally into something that resembled a song. That Beck did that better than anybody. And before anybody, really. And it started out with The Yardbirds. He left The Yardbirds after only a couple of years, page Jimmy Page came in a famously and took over that job. Jimmy Page was paying attention to what Beck was doing. Yeah. You know, and formulating Led Zeppelin at that point. When you think about Beck's bolero, the song that Beck announced his solo career with, that included Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones, both of the future Led Zeppelin. And Keith Moon of the who, on drugs. So he's a nice backing crew. That man had the respect of everybody in the English rock scene. Well, and it's a sad irony that he never achieved the superstardom of the who or Led Zeppelin. Well, you know, two things. He wasn't a singer, and he wasn't a songwriter, really. You know, he was more of an interpreter, but that what he did with that guitar was amazing. The first two Jeff Beck group sold records with a Rod Stewart, a young, unknown Rod Stewart on vocals and a young unknown Ronnie wood on base were amazing records, basically that truth record that the Jeff Beck group did in 1968. That's the template for Led Zeppelin right there. And that was a year ahead of Zeppelin. And then he went on to a solo career, which included groundbreaking fusion record. Produced by George Martin called blow by blow in 1975. And some people lose the plot there. You know, they go, oh, it's too jazz fusion Y for me, but I think it's an incredibly inventive record. And if you listen to the entire thing, there's a lot of soul in it. And I think that's what Beck brought to all his playing was that he was an incredibly soulful musician. He couldn't, he wasn't really a singer, so he played the guitar like the human voice, and he was able to create sounds on the guitar. You could hear that in something like heart full of soul. He's echoing the vocal melody. Yeah, it's truly astonishing. And I heard Alice Cooper said something really beautiful about him and said, Clapton was a great blues guitarist. Paige was a great rock guitarist, Jeff Beck was a great guitarist. There was no genre that could really contain what he was doing.

"Lewis. He needs one with both ill, right? Or something like that. So when we had a rehearsal book and they were like, well, we're still going to do it. Nick started playing a clarinet. Wow. Yeah. And like this kind of we have a collection of all our demos, and we had about 50 of them at one point. And this little one that's called peanuts was just in there. For ages and ages, this sort of base and clarinet and synth jam basically sounds a lot like how and of course from the Arctic sands. We just kind of expanded it and made it a bit more kind of romantic, I guess, and a bit more epic. Yeah, washed it out. Yeah. It was almost quite an unusual choice, because at the very last minute, sort of almost before we went to record, we turned that little that little kind of recording into a song which is structured. It's definitely now it's like one of my favorites. I feel like it has a really unique atmosphere. And we sort of did it just quite quickly right at the last minute and that felt very just felt quite experimental by playful and just a bit sort of like risky and weird. It's got a weird choice to make. And I guess I just hope that we make more weird choices like that. So do you put what the words over the top of it when you hear what they're doing or is the band working off the lyrics that you give them? How does that how does the dynamic work between the vocals mixing with so well with the music? It's totally give and take so nothing comes first. It all comes at the same time. So when we're rehearsing, we're all improvising and playing. And I'm speaking and vocalizing at the same time. So with all my writing there and I'm kind of putting it together and making it up as we go. In the same way that Lewis is putting together and making up his base parts and next doing the same on the drums and Thompson same on the guitar. And we'll do that until we feel our way towards a song, you know? We make a lot of recordings on our phones of like just sort of demo versions of songs and we'll take them away and listen to them, decide which bits to keep, which bits to get rid of. So it's like trial and arrow, really. But yeah, it's never like lyrics for music second. I mean, it was that in the very beginning, the sweet princess, but because I hadn't joined yet. But then ever since then, it's all been just written at the same at the same time. Well, that's cool. I'm looking forward, Greg, to a decade from now after 6 or 8 albums from dry cleaning. When the box set comes out, and there's like 6 sautes of these demos and Nick does flow ever let the band look at the phone. That has all these phrases that she's picked up from. Were you not very secretive about it? It's often it's not really on the phone. You tend to collect the starts on the phone. And then you'll put it on paper and the paper will just be everywhere. And then I print it out. See, that's what I would love to see that. Well, the way they're describing what you're describing, we talked to penal palladino who was at the sole aquarians working with D'angelo. And I don't know if you're familiar with the voodoo record, but that was like made in a very the way you're describing. It's like jam band sounds like a very bad thing to call dry cleaning, but because you're not that, but it's sort of creating that sort of atmosphere where everybody's sort of working together in real time as opposed to, I recorded my base part now. Here's the drums. Now here's the guitar part and then the vocals are going to go at the end and it sort of comes together like a digital creation, but you're doing it in real time. We've discovered recently that it leads to some very complicated song structures. But then when you try to unravel it and learn and like sort of learn it again later, it's like a bloody nightmare.

"All right, so flow I have a question for you. The persona on stage the persona on record is so powerful and wise and funny and witty. I just picture Emma. Wouldn't it be nice to be here? You know, you're just run us right through with this sword. And yet, flow keeps getting asked. What it's like to be a woman in a band. That's like, oh, God almighty. What the worst question ever, you know. What's hard to answer when you are. Yeah, but you do have this persona. So if people are running into you when you're buying oranges at the grocery store. Do they expect the Florence of dry cleaning? Do you feel you have to live up to that? It's a good question. I think if anything, it just helps me because I'm not, I'm not necessarily consistent, sometimes I find socialising really hard and sometimes I find it easier and enjoyable. And I never quite know how I'm going to feel. So in a way, having a persona that is perhaps a little a little removed can be helpful because people don't necessarily expect me to be a barrel of laughs. Or like they might be a little intimidated. Well, they don't necessarily expect me to be super, super friendly. And if I can manage to be, then that's a bonus. And I feel like, but I obviously didn't think about that at all when we did that first rehearsal in the garage. I was just kind of like who's a kind of person. I imagine to be really confident or who's the kind of person I'd like to be like or like and I think of it more than me an ice queen or something like that. I think of it more as just a strong person who's quite immovable. I find that really attractive that sort of idea. And I'd love to be like that, but I'm not like that all the time. I don't think anybody could be. But it's a goal to aspire to. I was going to ask about the fact that you were, you know, you're a teacher. You're standing in front of a classroom, right? Of students, right? Talking to them. Did that make it easier to be a performer in a band? It's definitely true. It did wind up being a bit of a stepping stone. I can get into a mindset where I can stand in front of people and speak and I feel basically calm. Not before or after, that's a nightmare. But during, I have like I'm able to just be calm and I don't know why that is, but it's a thing I've always always had that. And I found a good use for it. Constructive. Nick, I think what you were saying earlier was fascinating. I think people who haven't been in bands don't understand how valuable when you can have finally get to a rehearsal space that has like heating or air conditioning and a powerful enough PA to hear the vocals and hear each other, right? So you're there. And now it's time for album number two. Was there a pressure on top of the fact that now we can all hear ourselves, is like uh oh, what do we do now? Not really. I mean, if it's sort of okay to say so, we were sort of beneficiaries of the pandemic in the sense that we wrote half of stunt work before new long leg had been released. So we finished recording it and you get it mastered and whatnot. And then you couldn't play shows. We had press to do and things like that. So we would get to writing and then once all the press was done, we actually extremely focused on writing new material because there wasn't even really much to do at home. There was a lot of stuff going on in that period, both on a global sense, but also in a personal sense like we had some very difficult things going on in our personal lives. And I think the rehearsals and the writing was kind of like an escape, you know, it was a something else to do, something else to think about. There is some element of pressure around it, but I don't really indulge in a lot of the press or anything like that. I just saw two fragile to really go delve in

"Cleaning released its debut single, the magic of Meghan and owed to prince Harry and Meghan Markle's recent engagement. It might also be the most straightforward lyric of any song from the South London Quartet. A handful of EPs developed a more abstract lyrical style and caught the attention of the British music industry and then the world. Before the end of 2020, the group was signed to the four AD label prestigious British indie, PJ Harvey's longtime producer John Parrish was in the studio with them, and we got their debut full length. That is right, Jim. That first album released in 2021 titled new long leg. It certainly got our attention. It landed on both of our top 5 albums of that year. And we both still listen to it to this day. A wonderful record really holds up well. But I don't think either one of us were expecting the follow-up, what are they going to do with that? It was so where do they go from there, right? So unique, could they possibly do it again? Exactly. And lo and behold, stump work, the new album that came out in 2022 was even better than that first album. They really expanded their sound. My album of the year. We had a chance to speak with drummer Nick buxton and vocalist Florence Shaw to try to find out how their musical alchemy works. Welcome to sound opinions. Thank you. Thanks so much for having us and for the Congo and back at you. I love your podcast. Oh, well, thank you. Thank you. It's great to have you both on. Let's start at the beginning. Nick, you and your buddies, Tom and Lewis. Are essentially jamming, right? We're going to put together a band. But you're missing the dulcet vocalist. Very much so, yeah, it was a very non vocal. What was the goal of what you were trying to do? Because no offense, Florence, but it seems like everybody focuses on you. You're up front. The music is extraordinary. And it's a real marriage between the band and vocalist. Was it sounding that way, Nick at the beginning? Yeah, the first rehearsal that flow came to, I think we all knew right away. It felt great. It sounded great. We were really unambitious. We weren't looking to change the world or anything. Still not. But we were just like, we're all good friends. We're looking to have just a good time, really, and enjoy making music together. And that's always kind of in the ambition with any project I've ever had. I can make a lot of music on my own, but I don't really choose to much of the time, because I enjoy collaborating, and I think that aim of the band was really just to have a good time. It was more of like a social thing rather than a musical thing at that point, we would just get together on Sundays, we would go over to Lewis mom's house and she cooked food for us. Those were amazing times. And it really took me back to being like 16 and being in bands and going over to your friend's houses and making a racket in the garage. We actually, I would say we spend more time in the beginning playing computer games and eating than we did making music. For sure. Nick, you guys were at least some of you had backgrounds in hardcore, right? For sure. Me, Lewis and Tom will played in sort of like heavier bands in the past. I've played drums and guitar in like kind of post hardcore and metal bands, but you know, like tastes move on and I haven't really played in a band like that for a long time, maybe Tom more recently. But yeah, that was definitely we've all kind of been there with bands like that for sure and done a lot of shows and those kind of scenes. All right, so float, you were friends with all these folks. But prior to getting sucked into standing in front of the microphone, you're a primarily a visual artist and a university lecturer or is that right? Yeah. Teaching? Yes, yeah, I was teaching. Amongst other jobs, I was living that kind of lifestyle where ends never totally meet, so I was doing loads of different kinds of work. Yeah. I was doing some definition of being a teacher. Yeah, I was doing some kind of like office work on the side and then also kind of like workshops with children like arts workshops a few different places and then also teaching drawing to like kind of like 1819 year olds mostly. Well, you know, by no means are you a conventional vocalist and I love this story might not be true. You reluctant, I what do you mean you want me to sing? They said, go listen to Grace Jones private life and little fluffy clouds by the orb. Neither of which have conventional vocals and it was just like, look, those are great tracks, right? You can do this. Yeah, that's exactly that is exactly what happened. It was a long process. I talked to Tom about it first. We were in a pub. We would always update each other on what we were doing and making the time and whether it was comics or being in a band or whatever. And he was talking about the band that he was doing with Nick and Lewis, which I already knew about because they were my friends and I was like, oh, that's nice that they're getting together and doing a band.

"Better that is a little bit of the song. Been to the mountain, the opening track on strays, the fourth album from Margo price. A native of small town, Alito, Illinois, that's out on the western border. She initially made a mark in the music world as part of the duo that formed buffalo clover. Her and her husband, bassist Jeremy ivy, a couple of India albums, and then she went solo, still working with hubby Jeremy. Midwest farmer's daughter, March 2016, big splash. It really marked Margot as one of this current class of kind of underground oriented country singer songwriters, feminists, strong personality, that came through, I think, abundantly late last year when we chatted with Margot about her autobiography, maybe we'll make it. She indicated in that chat for strays the new album that they retired, her and Jeremy to an Airbnb in Charleston, South Carolina, bringing nothing but notebooks, guitars, and a pile of psychedelic mushrooms. Oh yeah, there were a couple of records, too. She was listening to a lot of Tom Petty. I've got some guests on this record, Mike Campbell, former petty sideman, Sharon van Eton, great singer songwriter as well. What is Margo giving us on album number four? Let's play a track

"A really powerful, I mean, girlfriend is such an antiquated term, right? We all have friends. Some are male, some are female. Some are non binary. Girlfriend connotes possessiveness, I think, in 2023. And sza doesn't want to be owned by anybody. Yeah. No, absolutely. She's very serious artist. You know, in talking with her back in 2017, it was very obvious how much she invests in writing these songs. The craft of songwriting is really, really important to her. And she's such a perfectionist. I mean, for this record, again, over hundreds of songs written for 23 make the cut, she probably could apply it down a little bit more. But 23 is a long album. Just about every one of these songs defies conventional pop song structure. At the same time, she's evidencing, you know, there's that country country ish song. F two F in there. There's a baby face valid. There's a mazzy star vibe on that. So nobody gets me. The mixtape hip hop vibe on smoking on my ex pack. These are the variety of music that she brings into this is really intriguing. And also the way she approaches it. I love the fact that there was a level of understatement and dirtiness to those beats. There wasn't a big booming beat. There's not big obvious refrains either. She's not going for the home run. She's going for the more of the smoky vibe. And I disagree with you. I think her singing voice is incredibly good. Almost jazzy, more so than traditional R&B, or contemporary. It doesn't put me off. I just don't think of her as a great, great vocalist. Like marvel prices. I would compare it to Rihanna's 2016 album anti. This reminds me a lot of that approach where everybody's going to like, what's reena up to? There's no obvious hooks on this one. This is kind of a weird out there kind of record, but Rihanna when she gets kind of dirty and not dirty in any kind of explicit way, but more in the pretty, let's say, is right. This is what that level of R&B is where she's at right now. And I just think it's incredible. She also is great at saying the quiet part out loud. You mentioned that something kill Bill. A lot of people think these in their relationship. She's saying it out loud. Yes, there is anger there, but it's also her courage and expressing her true feelings about these relationships. So, you know, to me, another great record, it's probably going to get showered with mainstream Grammys, et cetera. But I just think from a critical standpoint, I think she's one of the great artists of recent times. Yeah, we're due for another one in 2028.

The cover was black and white, and it was Jeff Beck. And that album just blew me away, even more than Peter Frampton and all the other guys, and I'm like, wow, this guy, and then I really discovered what he was all about and he was something else. It was the blues of America brought over there. And you know, they did it. And Cadillac ranch kalak records rather, which was, you know, the stones fascinated by what Memphis had and the rest of it. Beck was no different. These guys lived the American blues. And that's what they played. And people like clapped and launched out with it. But The Yardbirds was Jimmy Page.

They'll popularize distortion on guitar solos, like with the song, heart full of soul with the yardbird, and he helped turn classical music and iconic rock on his first solo single, bex bolero. An 8 time Grammy winner, Beck was inducted in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice with The Yardbirds in solo in 2009. I've been naughty all my life and I don't deserve this. Ranked 5th most influential guitarist of all time by Rolling Stone magazine. Beck just earned another Grammy nod for playing on Ozzy Osbourne's patient number 9. Jeff Beck, 78. Jason Aiden's an ABC News. Hollywood. From ABC News, tech trends, Lenovo's new yoga book 9 I looks like a traditional clamshell laptop from the outside, but it's what's on the inside that counts. This is actually a pair of connected 13 inch oled screens on the inside. PC mag senior editor Mark hockman says the 9 I can operate like a normal laptop. It even comes with a physical keyboard. It clips right over the top of the second screen. But Lenovo has also included a special stand. And you can put the laptop or, I guess, the dual screens on it like you would a book. So you have sort of a left hand screen at a right hand screen. You can also be oriented with the keyboard flat and the two screens stacked on top of each other, Lenovo says it's aimed at people who got used to having a dual screen setup at home. When you get to using a secondary screen, like the book 9 I offers, it feels a little bit more like your home setup and a little bit more comfortable as well.

Giant Bombcast
"jeff beck" Discussed on Giant Bombcast
"Thought I have a bomb. I didn't realize that she came out. That rules. Before we actually talk about gays, Jeff Beck Clark, he took a quick trip down to Southern California to attend The Game Awards. I did. I remember you came like gay godi week last week. You were like, all right, I'm ready to tell my stories. I'm like dog. He got a pause on that shit. Got a pause. Save it for next week. And that was the time. And the boomer is, I forgot it all. I don't remember what happened out there. All right. Game of the week. I was there for 48 hours, and you know, if you do the math and with the time change and all that, it's like an afternoon is really all you spend out there. No, it was great seeing everyone. It was a lot of fun catching up with people. I think the one thing everyone was sort of like mutually expressing in LA was sort of like, how do you do how do you do this? Like how do you be at a thing? How do you do an event? It was very, this sort of like, everyone was under the spell in a weird way. But in terms of the show itself and the award show, I mean, you know, you saw what I saw only I was a little bit more confused because there was a lot less context around it all, and we were sort of just sitting there. I think the game, I think, from a production point of view, I think this was like the tightest broadcast ready top to bottom production that they've ever put on. I think it was precision perfect in a lot of ways. I just think, I just think that show for me, in my opinion, is that she kind of has this weird identity crisis. You know, how so. Because I don't know what that show is like wanting to be. That show seems like it wants to attract this Hollywood audience that I don't necessarily think it needs. Like obviously I was jazzed to see Al Pacino like show up right away and everyone's like, everyone's like, holy fuck. What? Why? What? Do you think he dipped after that appearance? I gotta imagine. There was a picture of him hanging out with hideo kojima after the show. So I think it is before, though. Who knows? Oh, that's true. It could have been before. You're right. Good point. I don't know. I think, you know, I just think there is this weird desperation to be quote unquote like accepted by Hollywood in a weird way, and I just think that is sort of antithetical to the spirit of video games. Not necessarily good or bad. I just think it creates a bit of friction where maybe there doesn't need to be any. Can I pass it to you real quick? I think this is the year that The Game Awards came into its own. Because yeah, sure, the vestige of like the Hollywood stuff is absolutely still there, but it is the kind of place where now anything could happen and it is the kind of place where a kid wants to sneak on stage. 'cause he knows he'll get an audience and things that are out of kiwis control. We're kind of happening all over the place. Like they weren't making stars out of the flute guy and of course part of that was like they were putting the camera in them. They knew what they had. But the ability to be like, oh, now overnight, he is a sensation and even though he's been popping up all over stuff for years and years. It's like, no, gaming now can do this to a person. I think The Game Awards are here. This is it. I'm not, I'm not expecting them to ever really turn into the award show that I kind of always wanted them to be and now I've made my peace with that. Instead, they are this just this cultural lightning rod where anything in gaming can happen and everyone's going to come together to show stuff off and yeah, fine with that. I think that's what I want it to be more of. I know that keely can have summer game fest and maybe like a third event that he throws throughout the year to just really be this big like hype cycle creating a bunch of trailers and stuff. And I like I don't know if we properly as an industry celebrate some of these games because the rapid fire categories kind of leave a bad taste in my mouth. And I'm sure like the Chris judge speech after like we mean it's death, it probably threw off a lot of the timing of the show. But then I have to assume that a lot of the rapid fire categories were always intended to be rapid fire categories. I don't know, like throw it up like a no clip Doc. Have Danny make a 5 minute thing breaking down one of the games of the year or whatever. I want to learn more about some of this stuff. It would be free though, James. It's fair fair fair. Here's the thing, right? And I'm with you. I think we all share a similar sentiment. I think the biggest glaring kind of head scratching issue for me is sort of the way in which the awards themselves have been devalued. Because you are essentially framing a trailer show around this tiny morsel of awards. I looked at my watch, I think it was close to 90 minutes in and they had only done that first award. And I was just like, what is happening? And I realize, I think there is this unspoken ambition to make this the Oscars. I mean, this is obvious, right? So but at the same time,

"ALF back then. I go, you got to go. You got to fucking go, bro he was a junior. I was a senior. I said, you got to go. And he left. So suddenly, out of nowhere, I'm watching scorchy, and they're sooning out sitting in my living room. At the old drunk and sexy and silly, you know, how it goes. And I'm like, well, what do you want to do? Do you want to look at some baby pictures of me? I was thinking of anything I could do. Hey, look, look at these. I was bringing out baby pictures. I was bringing out, I mean, guys, I did all I could to keep I'm sorry. I did all I could to keep her interested. And we're on the couch together. I'm finally alone with Sue and eno. It's now 1980. We're no longer freshmen. We're seniors, and everybody wants Sue. And she's in my house on my couch, and she's letting me hold her against my chest and kiss her head and kiss her ear, whatever the fuck. But I didn't go further than that. Apparently, her contact lenses were bothering her, so he took them out. We put them in some kind of liquid that she had and then that didn't work. It all ended badly. But the point is, she was right there, so when I think about these kids who were talking about cheating on exams and wearing headpieces, I'm like, you idiots don't even know what you're missing, man. You're missing your old Sue Nino. What are you doing? Put the fucking hats away. Go flirt with someone. I mean, am I the only one that has memories of that kind of stuff of people just, you know, blowing your mind and having. To be with them and then actually one day they're there with you? Oh my God, I'm not going to spoil it, but we saw a picture a few weeks ago of Sue and some girl who went to high school with and, you know, they don't look the way they used to look in 1979, but neither do I, so no harm no foul, speaking of which, I'm sorry, but listen, guys, as much as I love Johnny Depp. I'm honest enough to say the music he plays with Jeff Beck is God awful. And I've been gone up against a lot of people online who have taken to call in Johnny God dad and saying, oh, he looks so beautiful. No, Johnny Depp, Johnny dep now looks like a Johnny Depp in personator. He looks awful. I don't know. You know, I don't look like I used to look when I was a kid either. So I'm allowed to be critical here. But the drinking and the drugs and the bullshit has caught up with Johnny Depp. And it shows it's like that old adage. You die what the face you deserve. And Johnny has his now. Okay, that's it. He may have been a beautiful soul. He may still be a beautiful solid spirit. I don't doubt he is. But Scott with how beautiful or handsome he is now. He doesn't. He's not. So so many pictures and imposing with relatives and Kentucky or some shit. And while that was a really cool gesture, Johnny Depp doesn't look good anymore. None of us do. You know, you can still love him. As, you know, we've allowed Pacino or old Jack Nicholson or old Warren Beatty, but stop acting like Johnny Depp still belongs on the cover of Tiger beat. And stop what this new term, God dad. What is that? You Johnny Depp fans are starting to sound like Britney Spears nuts.

A- mccartney's band post beatles nineteen seventy four and various various things around england. But he's pretty much retired didn't really play that much From time to time he he he migrated to yamaha kit and cool towards the very under after two thousand four. He was actually officially a. Dwi artist last comes. Play was dwi cool that makes sense. It's kind of a. I mean w still huge but in the early two thousands. That was really the drums to have Affleck every every time you turn on tv or any performance. There was w Gosh was was he. I i know you mentioned that because and same with jimmy and everyone bet a lot of people days signing things and not really knowing what was going on was he financially. Okay from from all the you know it was. He was okay. He was okay but but he he was never got the award. He never got. The percentage that he should have got and it goes decisions people get upset at the current hendrick hendrix l. headaches experience experience headaches organization. But you can't really blame the base mitch sign. That made that mistake in this in this early night when he was nineteen and twenty. Yeah so that now. That was resolved that the henry experience. Llc mitch was booked on various gigs and into his passing in two thousand eight but he never enjoyed real financial success. I think he should have another way of looking at jimmy survived. Jimmy lived past nine hundred seventy. I'm sure mitch would have been passed away as a multimillionaire worth a couple hundred million dollars. Okay and then obviously so at the end He passed away. As as as i would say a pretty he was not an old man. I mean he was what sixty one when he passed. Now he he had a underlying medical condition. That i don't i know about from from the family i i don't. I'm not at liberty to say not. It was not Drugs and alcohol. He had another serious condition has to do with his blood counter. Something that was causing problems for them for the last ten years. Yeah and that of course no one knew about except the family so he had a serious medical condition towards the end there. That was really aged him. He's in sixties. He looks like somebody in his mid seventies show. That's so unfortunate. But but i mean he lived a great life He obviously is. We're talking about him still to this day. Which is which is you know something. That i'm i'm very happy that we get to share his legacy and carry it on It's just fascinating. I think you're doing an amazing thing with the fan club. How did talk about the fan club is that i feel like we covered. Mitch pretty darn. Well i mean.

A majestic hills and lake geneva was in one thousand nine sixty eight two weeks. After we'd open for frank zappa. The mothers engine. You know you're were the band when you came out. Did everybody liked the heavy metal guys. Liked you. the new wave guys like you. What's not to like well. Let's not but you just appealed to such a wide group of like everybody could agree on cheap trick even if they disagreed about everything else seems like that. I mean i heard that from a lot of people. I mean like the ramones like cheap break and joey did a number of our sons ages. Southern girls came to see asked asked. He's like he's from new york. We're from the chicago area. We never really saw them unless we went to see him. We didn't know him personally. So we start meeting. These guys was kind of fun and the new york dolls. They came to see us play. I wanna go way back again because you grew up in a musical family. Yes i did. Tell me about that. My father was an opera singer and he was also religious. Kind of saying he's saying with billy graham He had a radio show in chicago on. Wnba which is a moody bible institute. Were were both my grandfathers graduated from. They were both ministers so i was raw music. My dad was choir director in world. War two is captain and he was served dilution islands in roswell new mexico but he was always around music and My dad was choir director of church in rockford but we went to chicago to the baptist church of those times. Here's a white guy with a black woman and they're singing his great music and everybody's having fun at this is it. Then i go back to as the stuff is like put you to sleep music for me. It's like what i do wrong. I do not like my father. Also did the operated barbara seville which i walked on stage. When i was three years old supposedly Walked out on. Stage doing urban seville and people started laughing clap. And that's this is what i like this so i like it when people laugh and clap and then wasn't a direct route to all this stuff but you so i was around these kind of wacky artists so i worked in my dad's music store where i goofed off mostly so i'd see everybody. You know. sam kennison actually rented a pa when he was a evangelist he and his brother l. Amazing was there a moment when sir pop music came on the scene or rock music. I started playing drums. Let there be drums. I think it was one of sandy nelson gene crew. I like that stuff in plus music on on. Drums is a sorta like mathematics. And i was always good at math. You know like instead of one two three four drums. When e enda to e end three. I could write out music like that. Although i couldn't really read it. I knew how to write it up for me. That really helped me later in songwriting and then as it progressed. I started playing bands as a drummer and the guitar. Players were always even us rolling stone saw or something. I didn't know how to play guitar. But i knew there were playing the wrong note. So get off the drums. And i figure out what the part wasn't after after too much of that. I just decided to give up the drums and find. Some kid could counter to four bedrooms. And i just taught myself on a play guitar. Did you just get a guitar from your dad's shop. I actually got a guitar from mother. It was it was a goya. swedish brand. nylon string. Guitar was my first one. I still have it. It doesn't sound any goodness kind of smashed up broken. But that's that's how i kind of learned it was the neck was wider and stuff so actually learned how to play a more difficult instrument instead of this easy stuff. So i got in here. You're the sort of guitar hero do people. But you're not the kinda guy that stays up on stage in plays like ten minutes. So oh i hate that. That's why years ago i should. I stack my guitars. One on top of commissar writer in an entertainer. I'm not really a virtuoso off you. My solos are short to the point. The song is more important than me. And you have all your solo parts in all your licks worked out before you go on stage. Well if i know the songs you know sort of like angus younger someone who just gets up there and plays plays well. He plays a lot of the stuff that these worked out. And you'll have stuff that's on the record so that you know i'll change it if if it's bad is usually what i do is like a place something that's realistic. According to me. And it's like. I don't know how to explain it on this new records like i don't sound like i'm this old is sound like this. Sometimes i i would do a solo. That's more like The mc five. Or neil young. He one note. That's good enough. He plays it. Well yeah when you started playing electric guitar and you in bands. Who are the guitarist. Who influenced you to get that very particular sound. Well my favorite Went to see him. I was. I think the the first show of i'm not sure what you're sixty four the yardbirds jeff beck right from the start and i thought he was great then. I think he's great. He's still kind of my hero. And i sold on guitar in one thousand nine hundred ninety eight and the second list ball you ever owned really. Yeah i went. So i'm in chicago. The connecticut playroom what was it about his plan. You like so much you back then. It was like the guitar players. That you kinda knew about was a scotty moore and cheddi atkins but they had played with round wound strings and it just didn't sound right jeff beck some like house. Get that sound like i was backed under. There was no guitar magazine kind of things. I read an hip raider and it was like jeff beck. Get he says.

I'm Great Eddie how are you? Good how you in Canada how are you home? Yeah, yeah I live in Burlington, which is sort of a western city suburb, of Toronto and It's been great here. Actually you know it's I haven't minded sort of being isolated and. You know it hasn't had too much effect at actually allow me to become a little bit more creative so I've been enjoying myself. Well that's the thing you know all this pandemic time all the artists I've been talking to all seem to have a different take. Some are really chomping at the bit to go out there and do things and others are enjoying the reconnect with family and not used to being home. This long others are taking the time to do really creative things. Right record do streaming videos what what's been the focus for you. In this time I mean you you are semi retired from touring anyway weren't you? Yeah I had sort of stepped back from touring at the beginning of twenty nineteen. So I was getting used to it and I had told my agent. Well, you know I'll go out and try if you want to necessarily have to fly two gigs. But if you put some stuff together that can drive to maybe I'll try some of that and then along came covert thing and those got bumped and canceled and so but I was already getting used to being off the road. anyways. So I don't really miss the road and I mean. I do Miss Playing And and having that I interaction with the crowd and that energy you know but I don't miss you know airplanes and hotels and taxi cabs and all the rest of it. You know a And the thing. That's weird. Eddie like it was almost like a retirement was a great career move for me because. Round Hill records was putting out the triumph stuff said, he would you like us to put a all your back catalog and I went well sure that it'd be great. It's nice to have somebody believing me. So all of the albums that I made after I left triumphed they've just digitally released him and then I was sitting around going I. Think you know I still want record and stuff when I was writing tunes in When I in nineteen, sixty, two, I don the Bob Dylan record, it was just called Bob Dylan and it was just a cousteau Qatar voice voices. You know all my years I've never really done a whole album like that. So I'm going to do a project like that. So I put that out on my website and then I I was. Writing a book of poetry and it looks like a publisher wants to make a deal so that I can do book of poetry and a memoir. So it's like one thing led to another thing about to nosing before I. Knew It. I had like a completely full calendar, and now of course you know I'm doing all of this promos on calling you. What is what is strung out troubadours I saw link for that. What is after the newest thing you're doing? Now Strung out troubadours was a thing. There was a guy named Dave Dunlop who played in my band and he actually went try and fly the reunion Gig in. Sweden in an Oklahoma Day was actually in the in the triumph hand as well playing rhythm. Guitar and Stuff. So Dave and I had a little duo thing like a lot of times my touring and got to the point where I was doing a lot of solo stuff I wanted something else and so I use the piano player for a while and then I kinda got the edge to have a little bit more of a rock and roll approach. So two guitars made it a little bit more kind of versatile and so Dave is the guy and we did it for you and then I said, Hey, you know what? We should do an album together and put it out. We can sell it at emerge table, and so that was the birth of the troubadours and we did three albums. and. Yeah Round Hill bought my rights out to those days still has his side of it. He he didn't sell them. So he stands to make some more mechanical royalty. Whatever there is to be made these days, right Yeah. So I wanNA talk to you. I. WanNa ask you some triumph stuff of course but before. But before that, let's let's let me cover the reason you're calling which you mentioned the release of your albums after triumph ended for you and I think rick that people would probably be surprised to learn how many records there are, and there were a lot of people that sort of. Categorized what you did after triumph as being a jazz guitar, but that's not all you did. You really ventured into a lot of different styles. So for people that especially here in America that maybe didn't follow all that closely some of the stuff you did after triumph tell everybody what you did musically, and how many records there are in the different journeys those records took you on. Okay well, you know settle in folks make yourself a cup of coffee. This is a long story. There there was thirteen that round hill made a deal for and they ran the gamut and when I first got of triumph. So a little bit of sort of ancient history here left eighty eight. I actually made three albums for an indie either had a distribution through universal and in Canada. And those sort of started an evolution or You know I don't know a a mutation change from being sort of Iraqi. Guy To kinda be in a singer Songwriter Guy and that took me from eighty nine through to about ninety five six. And then I sort of had enough. I. I was I mean the industry had changed You know the whole thing of being sort of in an arena rock band. It's kind of converted to an MTV banned through the eighties that was dying off and there was the rise of Nirvana and soundgarden and so radio had gone in a different direction and I try and thing just seemed like it was over for me you know so I left made those three records in there and I got to the point where I went. Okay. This doesn't really seem to be working for me either and it's not really why I left triumph. In the first place I just want to indulge myself creatively artistically and I don't care if I make money or not This is not a question of chasing career. This is a question of sort of. Chasing what art in music and the music is is pulling me towards calling me. You know. So I, one was a classical guitar instrumental record next one in very short succession was a blues rock and kind of a thing because really that was like where I cut my teeth when I was first learning electric guitar was the whole Eric Clapton Jimmy Page Jeff Beck thing these guys out of the yardbirds then back into the Chicago Blues and down the Delta all of the you know the the same path that those guys went soon as you discover them, you go back down the path that they did too. So you know And then the next record was sort of top jazz because that was the next thing that happened in my life I went to college for one semester in Jazz Music Program but at the time, I was heavily deeply into everything from west, Montgomery to Charlie bird to Joe Pass and so Yeah you know swinging and that comes on playing blues and so those were the first three records I made real quick

Deeper Digs in Rock: BONES UK
"Called bones. Uk This was one of those Love at first sight type of things for me one note and I was hooked. Okay I literally was in love. So who are these immensely proper quiet and suitably charming young ladies from the British Isles? Yeah there anything but that bones. Uk is a two piece from Camden town. A suburb of London and consists of an in-your-face Rosie bones. On Lead Vox and Rhythm Guitar and the very impressive and chill Carmen Vandenberg on Lead Guitar. They work very closely with producer. Filipo Giamatti to create a fresh rock. Sound on record but at the same time these two fine sirens can do it live. I formed in two thousand fourteen when Rosie Mett Carmen and instantly had a connection. They put some stuff together and literally believe it or not had Jeff Beck show up at their second GIG. Whereafter seeing them. Ask them to help write his two thousand sixteen album loudhailer and then invited them on the American tour. I'm just not sure you can possibly find a better endorsement than that Very very tail. Except when you realize separately Rosen Carmen had been working Added for years before all this came to pass just goes to show you. You just gotTa find that Special Chemistry but if that is not enough. They were nominated for best rock performance at this year's grammy though they lost to Gary Clark junior so I got to speak to both of them while on tour opening for corn and I gotta say they are both charming intelligent sexy and fun as their tunes. I love it when the act matches the music and data is what you get with bones. Uk. They just released an unplugged. Ep with some of the songs you'll find on their twenty nineteen upon US album. But what I dig about that is if you need more than Jeff Beck telling you this showing they do have some impressive musical chops and therefore Given a chance these these ladies should go really far well if rock and roll still matters that is I. I know it does to you and I can. They make a big dent in the universe. We shall see in the meantime. Let's get to know them a little and hopefully you will feel the same way about them that I do. Oh One last thing about these two from Camden town. There's a whole mythology being created here. They have a very personal authentic thing. They take their ideas and not just from songs but all that would go along with it. the imagery the videos Their interaction with fans Just how they comport themselves Very real but at the same time it it is it is
