(Ep. #39) Guitarist Legend Adrian Belew (Bowie, Zappa, King Crimson)/Interview

Baxie talks to the legendary Tony Levin! Since the early 1970's Tony Levin has been one of the most sought-after bass players in history! His accomplishments as a musician are astounding. While he's been primarily known for playing on every Peter Gabriel album, he's also known for his work with King Crimson. On top of that Tony has also lent his amazing talents for more than 500 other albums. And that number continues to grow. These include sessions with John Lennon, Pink Floyd, Paul Simon, Buddy Rich, Stevie Knicks, Warren Zevon, and many others. He is also responsible for popularizing the Chapman Stick. He also been responsible for creating something known as "Funk Fingers" (Which you can hear on Peter Gabriel's "Sledgehammer") Tony has just released a fantastic new solo album "Bringing it Down to the Bass". He's also currently touring with BEAT--a band that includes his former King Crimson bandmate guitarist Adrian Belew (who's been a guest on this podcast), guitarist Steve Vai, and drummer Danny Carey from Tool! BEAT will be playing at the Shubert Theater in Boston on October 10th and at the Bushnell Theater in Hartford on December 3rd. Tony talks about all of that and more! Just amazing!

(Ep. #203) Tony Levin Interview

"It's not the side effects from the cocaine. I'm thinking that it must be love"

David Bowie struggled a bit in the late 80's/90's, in a comparative sense, after the stratospheric success of Let's Dance with the MTV generation. In the tour he is partnered with King Crimson/Zappa alum Adrian Belew, with whom Bowie had recorded Pretty Pink Rose (a minor hit and an awesome song). 

On July 23, 1990 the band played Hartford, CT. This is the show we're listening to in this bonus episode. I play Ashes to Ashes, Pretty Pink Rose, & Station to Station. It's a very high energy gig and Belew's signature sound really suits the material.
