I had the pleasure this quiet but VERY intense bluesman, believe me, he has a DEEP voice and it is quite a feat to interview such a nice gentleman with such an articulate way to express himself.
His album "Booker's Guitar" is a pure joy and if Eric plays near you, go check him out!

Happy listening,

I am sure you heard at least once the hit "Do You Kiss On The First Date?", the song is great, the guitars are juicy and the opening riff is massive! Well, this gem comes from the Toronto based trio called Danko Jones.

No Way!! And here we are, 50 episodes later with many interviews and guitar soundseeings, one year later, going stronger than ever.

Mattias “IA” Eklundh interview with Freak Kitchen guitar player
Monday, 07 December 2009
Meeting with Mattias "IA" Eklundh was an experience. The guitar player for the swedish power-trio Freak Kitchen is very funny and manages to be also very serious in his answers at the same time.
I have to admit I discovered very recently the music from Freak Kitchen (shame on me, I know!) and I was more than anxious to discuss with such a guitar player.
They will be in France in 2010 (February 2nd at La Maroquinerie in Paris) so don't miss them if they come near you.

As a follow-up to this episode (where you can listen to a Steve Vai interview) I did a Skype interview with his guitar player for the last 10 years, Dave Weiner.
The 35 minutes plus conversation was recorded through Skype so please excuse the couple of drop-outs you will hear here and there.
Thanks a ton to Dave who took the time to answer all my questions.
Watch out on his website for his up-coming solo album very soon...

I almost lost sleep for a week when I learned I was about to interview Steve Vai! I am that big of a fan. I had a blast talking to him. He was extremely nice on the phone and answered all my questions.
Subjects discussed in the Steve Vai interview
Steve talks about his latest live CD/DVD Where The Wild Things Are
About his music
His band
His guitars
And plenty of other stuff
The live CD/DVD Where the Wild Things Are is a great testimony to how good Steve can be when he performs live.
