Andy Taylor was the very first musician to sing my praises in the press. Great times together in NYC around 86’. Happy for Duran Duran to be inducted into the R&RHOF but hearing of Andy’s cancer battle truly sucks. Sending out positive thoughts buddy. @duranduran @AndyTaylorLives

40 years ago today, this lil’ nugget was released. There are those times when the stars align I believe this was the case with this record. With the help of producer, Keith Forsey, engineers, Mike Frondelli, and Dave Wittman, drummer, Thommy Price, fist, Steve, Webster, and Judy…

Aw man....One of the NYC originals, Sylvain Sylvain has passed away. He was a true sweetheart. In 1980 sitting on a couch in my old band loft, he gave me my stage name of Steve Stevens. Where’d ya get that beat, got that beat on 14th street.

When I’m asked to cover a song, very rarely do I stick to the absolute original. In the case of Poundcake I tried to honor EVH as closely as possible. Regardless of some boo boo’s in learning this, I once again was struck with the genius of EVH

A rather grainy photo of Peter Frampton and I at the Limelight club in about 1986. Peter always has some surprises in every lick he plays. In my opinion Frampton Comes Alive has one of best live guitar tones ever.

Safe travels Chick Corea. While the English guys were creating progressive rock, here in the states jazz fusion was showing how adventurous music could be. I was listening to a steady diet of both. Chick’s compositions and playing were exquisite.
