The Classic Rock Podcast

Gibson TV’s Original Series, “The Conversation,” features intimate conversations between two artists from similar genres but from different eras. They discuss everything from songwriting to touring to playing and anything else that’s safe to share on YouTube. In this episode, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee and Cheap Trick’s Rick Nielsen sits down with Nick Perri to chat about his early musical life as a drummer, his evolution as a songwriter and player, and his love of buying guitars with history, road scars, and smell, yes smell. Long before he was rocking a 5-neck custom guitar, Rick was a committed bargain hunter, mostly out of necessity because he couldn’t afford new guitars. But before you break out the mini violins for Rick, keep in mind he once found a ’55 Les Paul Goldtop in a bookstore that he paid a whopping sixty-five dollars for. That wasn’t the only good fortune visited upon Nielsen and his bandmates over the years. Rick fondly recounts the “opportunity knocks” moment when Cheap Trick was asked to open some shows for Queen; a gig that led to “big deal” status for the band in Japan, and an indirect ticket to superstardom back home in the states after the release of the live album, Cheap Trick at Budokan. #gibson #ricknielsen #cheaptrick #nickperri CONNECT WITH GIBSON https://www.gibson.com/ https://www.facebook.com/Gibson/ https://twitter.com/gibsonguitar https://www.instagram.com/gibsonguitar/ SHOP GIBSON BRANDS https://www.gibson.com/ https://www.epiphone.com/ http://www.kramerguitars.com/ http://www.steinberger.com/ https://www.krkmusic.com/ https://www.mesaboogie.com ABOUT GIBSON BRANDS Gibson, the world’s most iconic guitar brand, has shaped the sounds of generations of musicians and music lovers across genres for more than 100 years.

It’s time for another edition of our series revelations where featured artists and legends go deep on their greatest songs and albums. Today’s guest is always a riot. When David Lee Roth and Van Halen parted ways there was no question that the vacant lead singer position left a giant hole in the rock and roll ozone. Diamond Dave was one of the driving focus behind Van Halen’s rise to the top of the charts and the sold out arenas. not many bands have been able to muster such a loss. To that point really the only band that had kept their momentum after losing their front man was AC/DC. Well, after the dust settled, Van Halen welcomed the Red Rocker, Sammy Hagar into the fold and kept that momentum with Van Halen having 4 straight #1 albums starting with the volatile 5150. I remember when Sammy joined Van Halen I was like 9 or 10 years old and a few of my friends said wow who’s this new frontman, he seemed to come out of nowhere, he can really wail. I had to laugh because as many of you are aware Sammy had a long career before he stepped into the Mighty Van Halen. I knew about him because my dad had the first Montrose record and I knew about his solo stuff due to the metal mags that I bought with my meager allowance like Circus. The first Montrose record was a scorcher and at the time many called the band America’s answer to Led Zeppelin. Marketing Eh? Well Montrose was very cool. After cutting his teeth with the likes of Van Morrison, Herbie Hancock and Edgar Winter, Ronnie Montrose formed his namesake with Denny Carmasi on Drums, Bill Church on bass and Sammy known then as Sam Hagar. Montrose self titled is one of the most influential early metal albums in fact many experts and critics call it the first american heavy metal album, which is arguable. but what isn’t arguable is the quality of the record.

The band rose from the ashes of The Yardbirds, when Jimmy Page brought in John Bonham, John Paul Jones, and Robert Plant to tour as The New Yardbirds. In 1969, Led Zeppelin released its self-titled debut which was produced by Page, as were all the subsequent albums. It marked the beginning of a 12-year reign, during which the group was widely considered to be the biggest and most innovative rock band in the world.
