All Things Slide Guitar - The Slide Area

This time out we hear from my good friend and collaborator Mike "Slo Mo" Brenner.  He has a lot of great things to say and will make you search, stretch and think.  Check him out on YouTube and his many recordings: "Easy Come"   "Love Will Tear Us Apart"   Full band   With Debashish

This episode features Bothers Landreth guitarist Ariel Posen.  We spoke while I was in London and he in his new home of Ireland.  An extremely generous and kind person, Ariel spent a lot of time talking to me about all aspects of his approach and gear.  I hope you like it.  He is very active on Instagram and Facebook and posts new clips almost every day.  I hope you'll follow him and learn something.  Superb musician and human being.  Some clips:   Anderton's and the Captain meet Ariel   That Pedal show with Ariel   His YouTube page   Brothers Landreth Live

It was my extreme honor and pleasure to have one of my original influences, in fact the first man I heard play slide guitar, Jeremy Spencer to the podcast.  Jeremy is engaging, open, direct and very forthcoming.  Check out his slide guitar lessons online at YouTube below (starting at lesson 1) and enjoy the podcast.  Lots more to come in the months ahead so thanks for listening: Jeremy Spencer slide guitar lesson 1   Jeremy's home page:   Jeremy Spencer official website   The making of his Norwegian made "Mona" guitar by Jan Ingar Kviesler :   Making of Mona   Jeremy's slides:   Jeremy's slides  

Forgive the length of this installment of The Slide Area podcast but it's a good'un.  Canada's own Doug Cox. I got a lot out of talking with him and I think you will too.  Listen in two parts if you must <g>.   Some of Doug on the web: Doug's website "Sittin' In" with Doug on YouTube Doug Cox and Betty Soo (doing a song by my buddy Jeff Talmadge)
