Robben Ford Discussion

Thanks for that review....

I had tix for the first show but something came up and couldn't make it. Quite bummed about that.

I'd been looking or a review of the show, this is the only one aroun ...

That was great. I enjoyed that -and learned the tune too!

Dave,

Larry Carlton using his new Bludotone Amp on his current tour. Do you know if Robben is considering adding a Bludotone to his rig? Any discussion going on about the possibility of this happen ...

Nice review Marin. I thought the same a fews back when I saw them here in NY.

BTW- you write very well. Do you do it professionally? I'm in the publishing business, I pick up on these things.

I read the thread on the Gear Page.

Daved can you corroborate or give us an insight to what really went down at the Monterey Blues fest?

AlChuck,

Not sure what your hearing, but on the Live Jung Chi the melody (head) is completely different, there's also a distinctive B section with a bass heavy riff. Also, there's solo section that ...

Did anybody notice that the tune titled "That Road" which appears on Live Jing Chi and Live in Tokyo with Larry Carlton is not even close being the same song? Robben is given song writing cr ...

The gear page is correct. During the recording of the Blue Moon album, a studio tech accidently knocked it over and busted the headstock.

Is that tech still working there?

Thanks Dave for the response. May I ask one more question? I'm sure you'll know the answer to this one.

Do Robben's Dumbles have a separate master volume for clean and overdrive?

Thanks Again ...

I'm going to guess in the late 70's. A record store had a promotional copy of "The Inside Story" which I bought and still own.

That was my first time............

Anthony Jackson the great bass player whose played with Mike Stern, Steve Khan, Steely Dan (AJA , Gaucho) and Donald Fagen sits down too. I agree it does look odd. Kind of dampens the vibe.

I saw the latest Guitar Player magazine. They rate the top 50 guitar DVDs; performance not instruction. I was very dissapointed to see that our man did not make it. Not the Paris DVD nor the Robben an ...
