Upfront with Eric Johnson, the man sometimes referred to as "The Tone Scientist"….and this is a very different Eric Johnson. Yes he still plays like the man that won 5 Guitar Player of the Year awards, but the emphasis has changed somewhat. Eric Johnson was part of G3, with Steve Vai and Joe Satriani, and he once played surrounded by towers of technology… these days he is doing it stripped right back, leaving his extraordinary playing out there for all to enjoy.
Tony Joe White comes on all swampy to take us through the secrets of his laid-back bayou groove. With a right hand that is smoother than snakeskin and one of music's most distinctive voices Tony Joe, with his battered old Strat, reveals just what it is that makes the 'Polk Salad Annie' sound.
And Bob Brozman takes us on a lap-slide trip to Hawaii with the amazing 1930's wooden Kona guitar… never has Hawaii sounded like this.
To take us out… BB King and Eric Johnson rip into Every Day I Have the Blues.
