Yes You Can Play Guitar

Friends, It was an absolute honour for my good friend the Solitary Adventurer and I to interview the man himself, Morris Hayes, keyboardist for Prince and the NPG.

Friends, This one was a big one for me. I love most types of music and I'm as open-minded as they come, but I am a lover and connisseur of Bay Area THRASH!Phil Demmel. Guitarist extraordinaire for Vio-lence and also Machine Head. Phil was an absolute great guy. It was as simple as that. As I allude to in the monologue to this podcast, when you contact people for interviews, sometimes it's simple, sometimes it is a scheduling battle as people are very busy, and sometimes when I contact someone, they just simply never respond. With Phil it was easy. I contacted him and within a few days we had a day and a time booked. It was as simple as that.Phil has been generous with his time and has done many interviews, so I chose to take the harder route and ask him questions that he either wasn't asked before or has not been asked very often. Phil was a great hang.Don't forget to subscribe to my channel Yes You Can Play Guitar, and if you are so inclined, please feel free to donate to my channel as well, all the help goes a long way!

It might be a reaction video, it might be an interview or discussion, or it might be a guitar lesson of some sort. But I have been a long time lover and appreciator of Bay Area Thrash. This episode was a dear one to me, with thrash guitar legend Rick Hunolt, who spent many years in the legendary band Exodus, now with the awesome new band Diehumane!

Friends, this was a discussion I had with guitarist Brian Heaney with our good friend the Solitary Adventurer. This was a great one for all you Prince fans out there!Check out Brian's Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@Brianseamusheaney

Friends, this was our discussion with live sound engineer extraordinaire Scottie Baldwin. Many of you will know him from his tenure as Prince's live sound engineer. He has also worked and done sound for Lady Gaga, Earth Wind and Fire among many others.This was an exceptional chat with Scottie, with many stories about Prince you won't hear anywhere else.

Friends, this is my interview with Rob Arnold, guitarist of the metal band Chimaira.This was an awesome hang, Chimaira is doing a big reunion gig in May of this year.I've been a fan of Chimaira, especially their album the Impossibility of Reason for a long time.

My interview with luthier extraordinaire, the builder of Prince's famous cloud guitar, Dave Rusan.*Many Prince stories here you may not have heard...

Hi friends, this was my interview with whom I refer to as "The scariest guitar player on the planet." For all you guitar players out there, like you, Rusty was always one of my favourite players, and he sure inspired me to practice! All I would need to do is watch a video of him playing with his incredible technique to get me to grab the guitar and practice. This was a highlight for me for sure, the interview took place on Hallowe'en 2022.

Friends, doing musical reactions/analysis is part of what I do on Youtube (as well as interviews and posting lessons and tips) because of this, I do not normally watch other reactions, but I've always loved Doug's content. A phenomenal trained classical composer reacting/analysing metal and prog bands/songs that I love. Doug's channel and Patreon blew up like crazy when he started posting his reactions. This was an amazing discussion!
