The one where Jason chatted to Paul Stanley.Yes, you did read that correctly, the Paul Stanley.

2021/02/15

The one where we got up early to talk to Tim Mills of Bare Knuckle Pickups.Now we could easily have chatted to Tim about his back story as a Session Player and his ten years (plus) as part of the Elkie Brooks band. But that (as they say) was just the start of it.When the time came to leave the touring life behind, Tim spotted an opportunity to revolutionise the way Pickups were designed, marketed and sold to make it easier for Guitarists to capture the sound in their heads.It's a fascinating journey

2021/02/01

The one where we zoomed with Aziz Ibrahim.Talk about a career that's impossible to pigeon-hole. Aziz is a genuine one-off, not only because of the way he plays but also because of the variety of genres he has worked within over the last thirty-odd years.Every chapter of his story reveals another twist, another artist or band he has played with, or another landmark album he has played on.And yet, as he told us during a very entertaining recording session, he is still moving forward and pushing the

The one where Ant chats to a chap he used to work in a music store with (who just happens to now play in Wishbone Ash...!)For most people simply working in a guitar store at some point in their life would be enough, but then going on to own your own store would probably put you in the 'charmed life' category.How about if you did all that, and then got the call from one of your biggest musical influences with the invitation to join the band, and go-on to tour the world?By rights we should all hate
