Recording in the room with the amp versus In the control room.   Video with his parents when he was 17.   about the guitar: “Not just a piece of wood with metal strings it's a being”   Was hoping they could just make it for 5 years and that would be pretty good lol   2112: “our protest record”   Moving pictures their magnum opus   I'm not crazy about the production on signals.   Grace Under Pressure was a difficult album for them   Spirit of Radio.
