Speaker 1: that you were on. You must have you know, snuck

41
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 1: a couple of glances and thought, mate, one of these

42
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 1: days that's going to.

43
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,920
Speaker 2: Be Yeah, it is one that used to climb the

44
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: PA stacks and yeah two a bit of body body surfing,

45
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 2: and when he first tried, out of the crowd said

46
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 2: what the hell are you doing? They all stepped beside me,

47
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 2: went was crashing through the floor. Yeah, yeah, this is

48
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 2: a bombay rocking about ninety seventy nine. He didn't feel

49
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,679
Speaker 2: a thing, grabbed me in one of one of those

50
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 2: sort of neck hugs and we end up rubbing faces

51
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,359
Speaker 2: because were singing the same microphone. Then he stepped back.

52
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 2: His blood was on my face. He saw the look

53
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,639
Speaker 2: on my face, a look of horror looking at him

54
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 2: and realized that was in my blood, that it was

55
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 2: his blood.

56
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,360
Speaker 3: Brothers up there some of those runs, some of those

57
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 3: runs you do through the stage with the bottle in

58
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,639
Speaker 3: the air and the last end. Concept was that kind

59
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 3: of stuff.

60
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 2: That's crazy nan danger of stuff. Yeah.

61
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 3: We got caught up with Michael McDonald and the Doobie

62
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 3: Brothers last week, which is a great pleasure, and we

63
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 3: asked him about influences and we knew a lot of

64
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,920
Speaker 3: it was about Motown for him. How about influencers for

65
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 3: you musically guitar and as vocal as a vocalist.

66
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 2: Mate, Well, let's start with vocals. Just yeah, definitely all

67
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 2: the early soul stuff, you know, Ray Charles, Sam Cook

68
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 2: in particular, and then all that motown you know. And

69
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 2: I was a big fan of Paul Rogers from Free

70
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 2: but he was obviously clear they just reading and all

71
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 2: those influenced by all those kind of people. Guitar was

72
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 2: always blues bassed, you know when I when I just

73
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 2: as I picked up guitar, Hendricks hits the scene and

74
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 2: all the British greats like Jeff Back in particular of

75
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 2: the late great Jeff Back from my number one idol.

76
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 2: Really so I was definitely shed a tear when he

77
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 2: left us recently. Yeah, so it was yeah, but you know,

78
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 2: once again heavier, but still all blues, blues based stuff.

79
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 1: I feel like if someone was to compile a list

80
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 1: of all the people that you know, people like yourself

81
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 1: say were an influence, the one name that gets mentioned

82
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: so regularly is Sam Cook. It doesn't matter who it is,

83
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: Sam Cook comes up.

84
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, because he was kind of just well

85
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 2: maybe it's just slightly before Redding's time. Yeah, so he

86
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 2: was yeah before that. I don't know, hard not to

87
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 2: love clean voters ye and still today just an extraordinary voice,

88
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 2: so sweet and strong influence.

89
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 1: John Walker is Dead has described you as the most

90
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,559
Speaker 1: gifted musician he has ever seen. Who do you think

91
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: is the most gifted. Is it Sam Cook?

92
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 2: It's Sam Cook. Ah, That's that's hard.

93
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 1: That's a tough question.

94
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 3: You have to have a bunch of them.

95
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,599
Speaker 2: I mean, there's so many, so many young guitar playing

96

Speaker 2: on There's so many guys just brilliant, were technically brilliant.

97
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,080

98
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 2: the guys that sort of or the people, whether it
