Hank – Jimmy Day’s 1950 Fender Super-Amp – At its heart, any vintage amplifier
is essentially a dusty box of archaic technology. This one, however, is a nexus
to a point where legendary music was made. By Dave Hunter
Dad’s Day
2023 – VG’s Annual Ode to Fathers Who Inspire
Time, Touch,
And Reverence – The Magical Philosophy Of Slide – The sound of slide guitar is
part of the human experience. Birthed to create melodies with the cry and moan
like a human voice, its history traces from ancient Africa to some of the best
modern blues, rock and country. We discuss it with Sonny Landreth, Derek
Trucks, Warren Haynes, and aother superstars of slide. By Oscar Jordan
Nuno Bettencourt
– team Extreme – Since its beginning, Extreme’s sound and approach have centered
on his guitar wizardry. Though technically gifted, his priority has always been
“song first,” and the band’s new album proves he can still wow fans with his
six-string skills. By Greg Prato
Nick Perri –
Constant Creator – Raised in a strict Catholic household he was 12 when an aunt
slipped two cassette tape to him under the Thanksgiving table. Beyond changing his
life, her stealthy indiscretion helped mold his existence. By Ward Meeker
