This is the ONE YEAR anniversary episode of The Guitar Channel!!

Let me tell you it was quite a ride the past 12 months. Even in my wildest dreams when I started I did not think about being able to meet so many great musicians, from Steve Vai to Pierre Bensusan??? No Way!! And here we are, 50 episodes later with many interviews and guitar soundseeings, one year later, going stronger than ever. 🙂

Back in december I had the honor to interview Vernon Reid, a great musician and an incredible guitar player, when he was in Paris on tour with Living Colour. I think it is pretty appropriate to publish his interview for this episode #50 AND the one year anniversary.
The VERY impressive equiment Vernon uses on stage:

As an added bonus for this special episode, I am VERY proud to debut a new music for the intro

Bruce Kulick - BK3

Another guitar super-star on The Guitar Channel with none other than Bruce Kulick himself!! World wide known for his 12 year time as the lead guitar for KISS, he is now pursuing a solo carreer as well as being involved in many different projects.
I had the pleasure to do a Skype interview with Bruce to talk about his latest solo album BK3 and many other subjects.

Mattias « IA » Eklundh interview

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. Check the tour dates on their website.
With the authorization of Mattias, I played two extracts in this show:

"Sick" from the latest Freak Kiychen album "Land Of The Freaks"
"Mumbo Jumbo" from IA solo album "Freak Guitar"
