I just recently found these and had a great time listening, Kenny is a wealth of knowledge. I was lucky enough to see Cream a couple of times and Kenny is Spot on with his description of Eric, Eric was never the same after Mayall or Cream 😒
Mr Gibbs you are a national trea sure. Finding this channel and listening to you and your interviews has really put me back into what now seems like the best part of my life.Thank you!
Love the Kenny interviews, especially when he throws a curve ball in like he does when talking about Zappa and he just suddenly says, you ever hear the John Wayne story? And for sure, you HAVE to hear the John Wayne story. Could listen to Kenny all day, what a dude.
❤agreed! My favorite is when he shares about Jerry Lee Lewis. It’s a jumpstart to joy. I saw Kenny and the Superlatives two weeks ago today..soooooooooooooo good. Ended far too soon. Great comment, by the way
I'm from England and my roots are obviously different, but I have grown up with a love of American music (especially guitar music) thanks to the Beatles, Stones, John Mayall and many, many others. I'd never heard of Kenny Vaughan until I saw your interviews with him and I immediately thought what a thoroughly nice guy he was, knowledgable, articulate and cool. Then I searched him on TH-cam and holy shit can this guy play! What a revelation and thank you Otis, but that's not really it. What's really it is the theme I see in your video posts. You have an ability to seek out authenticity in the people you talk with. There's a sincerity and truth that you bring that I believe reflects your own: I'd hang out with you and any of your friends any time.
Otis Gibbs is a great interviewer and Kenny Vaughan is the best storyteller. The connection they made to the Mother's "We're only in it for the Money" and Mad Magazine really hit home. Love these videos.
@@chrisquinn9104 I'd say my favorite Zappa album is probably Joe's Garage. We're Only In It For The Money is absolutely HILARIOUS though. One of the greatest pieces of musical satire ever recorded. Frank was as accomplished at comedy as he was music.
Nice video, OGs. And ofc ,the knowledgeable/ wika/ Kenny vaughn..I watched all 3 parts of these..I can't even remember ,my first concert, lol, know it was 78/ Ted nugent, but, not much of the night....Anywho!! Great interview with KV.. I really enjoyed all 3 vids..Thanx again, OGs..
Thank you Otis, thank you Kenny! How I missed that Zappa record has me confused but just listened to the entire gem. Brilliant. Greetings from Littleton
Hey Kenny, So good to see your smiling face and hear all about your amazing experiences. It was a real feather in my hat to have had the pleasure to work with you all those years ago. All the very best!
It's super cool when one of your guitar heroes talks about his guitar heroes who are also your other guitar heroes. Kenny is a hoot, such an infectious laugh, long live Cousin Kenny
Otis, you're an amazing documentarian which is no slight thing. Thank you for the amazing work you are doing. And, I could listen to Kenny for days, I'm so glad you brought him to my attention.
I met Levon on the set of “Misdeal,” shot in Toronto, where he played a hash smuggler. I was cast as a Moroccan prison guard. The best part of the gig was hanging out with Levon between takes. I “loved to hear him talk.” Years after The Last Waltz, I went to see him in a club in Magog, Quebec, -that burned down later that night after the show. I was very happy to be able to lay my first CD “Transmigrations” on him some time after that at a bar in Pittsfield, Mass. He was a very charming, pleasant man. Smoked a lot of Rothman’s cigarettes, while he told stories backstage. Where did the years go?
Otis, these interviews are priceless , especially for us fellow musicians of that time period! In this video Kenny mentions seeing Zappa at the 1969 Denver Rock festival, which was a 3 day festival in June 1969, about 6 weeks ago before Woodstock, which I also attended, and also featured Tommy Bolan and Zephyr, Johnny Winter, Three Dog Night, and the very last night the Jimi Hendrix Experience played together. Our band also used open for Tommy Bolan’s bands. I would love to hear Kenny’s memories of that festival if you could get him to talk about it! Thanks Kenny, Russell England
My first concert experience was Dec. 28 1969 Miami Rock Festival. I had an amazing bit of luck my mom let me go for one evening only. Before the concert started the MC came out and thanked the previous day’s artists The Grateful Dead, BB King , Johnny Winter and Canned. I also remember seeing Bob “ The Bear” Hite walking around on the side of the stage with a camera. I had no idea who was going to play. Santana played first . I’d never heard of them before. When they announced The Band and I thought I’d missed the name of the band . They started playing and I had no idea what kind of music I was listening to. Then they played “Up on Cripple Creek “ and I suddenly remembered hearing that song on our AM car radio on the way to Florida. It was an incredible evening for me. I still love those bands. The early years of both bands.✌🏻
Thank you Otis for making this interview possible. Kenny is an encyclopedia of great stories. I am always hoping that he will one day bless the guitar world with some video lessons. His insight is priceless. Thanks again to both of you!
Sorry, I'm not a walking history book on musicians. That said, since listening to your podcasts Otis I'mlearning, I've so enjoyed learning and hearing from the living legends you record. I turned a friend onto your podcasts he noticed the genius of your style is you allow the artist to talk! You let them talk without interruption. All these artists tell a more complete narrative of their experiences if you just let them speak!! Great work, my friend. I live in Northwest NJ, I've heard you speak about traveling Rt.80 in New Jersey Rt.380 in PA, so you've passed my hood.
I grew up in Denver and I was pretty good friends with Kenny Vaughan. we played at the same clubs, go to each other’s houses and hang out play guitar. There’s a reason that just about everybody likes Kenny-He’s just so easy going and cool to hang out with.
Kenny is awesome. And Otis gives him room to run. The result is tons of fascinating “Inside baseball” about the professional music scene big, medium and small. That said, I’m about to forever change how you’ll experience it by pointing out that you should pay attention to how often Kenny says “ya know”. 😎
Thank you Roger for your fantastic insights and overviews of the town of Douarnenez in Brittany. We vacationed there for a week when the kids were small, enjoying the wooden boat festival and camping near the beach. My wife's sister had an import/export business in Italy and was a buyer of their salted fish. I got a chance to go out one of the locals fishing boats within the bay,. We got up close to some of the square rigger training vessels on short tacks inside the bay. It was blowing 20-30 naughts, so I'll never forget that experience. We are retired now decided to move from the US to France. We bought an old 12th century Chateau in the Loire Valley, so I can relate to your DIY experiences. However, I love sailing and the ocean and still dream of the wonderful time we had in Douarnenez. Life was simpler then, remembering having a beer at a local pub called the Pourquoi Pas (why not). Hope it's still there. We are now looking at homes again, this time in Brittany. Cheers.
Levon was a rock god. I met in him in memphis twice because big Dave Burnett introduced us. He passed two years after. Dirt Farmer was just out and he was great.
“This is an album of greasy love songs & cretin simplicity.” As a senior in high school in 1968, I bought a copy of Frank Zappa’s album, Cruising with Ruben and the Jets, and have held it close during the intervening 55 years. In all that time, I’ve never heard ANYONE mention it… let alone offer it the praise I always thought it deserved. So, Kenny Vaughan’s accolades are music to my ears! Thank you, Kenny! I had always assumed the style was inspired by the East Coast doo-wap groups familiar to a kid growing up in Detroit in the ‘50s and ‘60s. But he mentions that L.A. had its own contingent more likely to have influenced Zappa and Van Vliet. Live and learn.
Hello Cuz ... You freaking work with one of THE Greatest drummer , the Lord ever put on this Earth... Handsome Harry Stinson . I could pick him out from Anywhere!
Later on, Frank Zappa had an incident with a fan (I think I read that somewhere) and injured his voice. After that, his voice got lower. He used (octaver) devices to lower his voice up untill the mid ‘70’s. Sounded cool! He was always way ahead of his time. 🖖
My cousin took me to a bar 9C in alphabet City back around 1998-1999 and Kenny was guest appearing there with the house band. I had never heard of Kenny before this but man did he blow the roof off of that joint! I never heard blues grass style I would say played like that in my life, a total monster and easily in the top 3 best I have ever seen! What an amazing surprise that night was!
He's still my favorite guitar player to this day. My wife took me to see him for Father's Day a couple of years ago and he can still get it done. His tone just absolutely filled that arena. There's just an incredible power in his live playing. People underestimate him at their own peril.
@@SimpleManGuitars1973 Well said my friend! I've seen him many times since then and I'm always moved! Hang on to all these moments when the music just transports you. It's oxygen!!
Really dug Kenny on Guitar Slim (1926-1959). Jerry Wexler recalls a session in New Orleans when Slim arrived at the studio and announced "I gots to get my singin' pants on!"

There's an album called, "What's Shaken'" with that Beano Clapton tone. Clapton plays two different versions of Steppin' Out. Paul Butterfield does a song called Lovin' Cup with Bloomfield and Bishop. There's some Otis Rush on it. Stevie Alamo, who sounds a lot like Stevie Winwood sings, I Want To Know with Eric Clapton.
With all due respect to Mr. Vaughan, and there is certainly a lot of respect there...I know opinions are like a certain oriface that everyone has and mine differs from his slightly on Clapton, who I just saw two months ago in Denver.

Mr Gibbs you are a national trea sure. Finding this channel and listening to you and your interviews has really put me back into what now seems like the best part of my life.Thank you!
Listening to Kenny is like walking thru a musical museum! What a life!
Love the Kenny interviews, especially when he throws a curve ball in like he does when talking about Zappa and he just suddenly says, you ever hear the John Wayne story? And for sure, you HAVE to hear the John Wayne story. Could listen to Kenny all day, what a dude.
❤agreed! My favorite is when he shares about Jerry Lee Lewis. It’s a jumpstart to joy. I saw Kenny and the Superlatives two weeks ago today..soooooooooooooo good. Ended far too soon. Great comment, by the way
@@SeeCSeesCCnever seen them play myself. Would love for them to come to Barcelona some time!
Man, Kenny has a mind like a steel trap. His memory of specifics is amazing.
Otis, Thanks for all of these.
Kenny is such a great interview, as well as a stellar guitarist, and so down to earth.
Kenny's falsetto chuckle is priceless. I wanna hang out with everyone you interview. Thanks Otis!
I could listen to Kenny Vaughan talking or playing guitar all day. What a guy. Great interview. Thanks.
I'm from England and my roots are obviously different, but I have grown up with a love of American music (especially guitar music) thanks to the Beatles, Stones, John Mayall and many, many others. I'd never heard of Kenny Vaughan until I saw your interviews with him and I immediately thought what a thoroughly nice guy he was, knowledgable, articulate and cool.

Love to listen to Kenny Vaughan and his great stories! He's an exceptional guitar player!
Kenny’s rock and roll stories are awesome.
Even better, his playing. Always got time for Kenny. ✌️
Otis Gibbs is a great interviewer and Kenny Vaughan is the best storyteller. The connection they made to the Mother's "We're only in it for the Money" and Mad Magazine really hit home. Love these videos.
Right on the money man. Totally agree.
Those early Zappa records look like they came out of Mad
@@chrisquinn9104 I'd say my favorite Zappa album is probably Joe's Garage. We're Only In It For The Money is absolutely HILARIOUS though. One of the greatest pieces of musical satire ever recorded. Frank was as accomplished at comedy as he was music.
kenny is the coolest. superb player. love his interviews. well done, otis!
Otis' ability to create chemistry in the interview is key...plus Kenny is a really good dude.
Great interview Otis, as always. Man, I could listen to Kenny tell stories like this for hours.
So knowledgeable, intelligent, and so funny. That smile cracks me up.
I absolutely love Kenny. I save these interviews for when I’m driving to work. It really helps me get through the day. What a talent
Otis anything you do with Kenny V. is pure gold, thanks man!
I could listen to Kenny's stories for hours.
Listening to Kenny is like having a buddy in the business who tells it like it is. Fun stuff. Thanks!
Kenny freaking Vaughn, man. I could listen to this cat did up memories and tell stories all day long.
Nice video, OGs. And ofc ,the knowledgeable/ wika/ Kenny vaughn..I watched all 3 parts of these..I can't even remember ,my first concert, lol, know it was 78/ Ted nugent, but, not much of the night....Anywho!! Great interview with KV.. I really enjoyed all 3 vids..Thanx again, OGs..
Kenny is the cool uncle or older brother we all wish we had.
This is as good as musician interviews get! Thank you Kenny and Otis!
Thank you Otis, thank you Kenny! How I missed that Zappa record has me confused but just listened to the entire gem. Brilliant. Greetings from Littleton
Hey Kenny,
So good to see your smiling face and hear all about your amazing experiences. It was a real feather in my hat to have had the pleasure to work with you all those years ago. All the very best!
Bill Bruford, Neil Peart, John Bonham, Keith Moon, Carmine Appice.. the list goes on and on.. they all had a sound!😉
It's super cool when one of your guitar heroes talks about his guitar heroes who are also your other guitar heroes.
Kenny is a hoot, such an infectious laugh, long live Cousin Kenny
Love KV...Kieth Moon had a sound. Thanks brother you're appreciated.
Otis, you're an amazing documentarian which is no slight thing. Thank you for the amazing work you are doing. And, I could listen to Kenny for days, I'm so glad you brought him to my attention.
I love Kenny's laugh.
You can't rell these stories without living it. No one documents it better than Otis.
I have always said that particular solo the Kenny mentions from Stormy Monday with John mayall just might very well be the best live solo Eric did..
Levon was a great actor too and is in a lot of great movies
I met Levon on the set of “Misdeal,” shot in Toronto, where he played a hash smuggler. I was cast as a Moroccan prison guard. The best part of the gig was hanging out with Levon between takes.

Kenny is the real deal, what a legend.
Always enjoy Kenny Vaughn. I trust what he says about music and guitars, and people he saw. He has had some great experiences. Thanks!

SO Good!!!...and that fringe leather jacket could have been interviewed by itself!!! ❤😊
Hello Cuz ...
You freaking work with one of THE Greatest drummer , the Lord ever put on this Earth... Handsome Harry Stinson . I could pick him out from Anywhere!
Wasn't familiar with this gentleman but his anecdotes are priceless. Great interviews,thanks.
Great interview thank you so much for sharing
Thoroughly enjoyed hearing these stories, thank you Otis and Kenny.
Just saw a video from the early 60's where Zappa was on the Steve Allen Show playing the bicycle. It was great!
He’s right about Jack Pearson.
Thank you Otis for compiling these interviews ☮
Quite a group of great interviews!
Ok I’ve been down a Johnny Guitar Watson rabbit hole for 3 days bc of this video. Thanks Kenny and Otis!
This guy's life just rules. It's like he was there for every awesome moment in american rock history
Really. I read a comment here a while ago where he's described as the Forrest Gump of music history.
Later on, Frank Zappa had an incident with a fan (I think I read that somewhere) and injured his voice. After that, his voice got lower.
He used (octaver) devices to lower his voice up untill the mid ‘70’s. Sounded cool! He was always way ahead of his time.
🖖
What a great interview. & yes, the Bluesbreaker LP was it for me back in the day.
What a good hearted soul!

Yea i could talk to him or listen to him talk about music all day
🤟 amen to that!
Far out stories, keep up the wonderful work Mr. Gibbs……..✌🏼&♥️
Cream was my first ever concert in '68! Clapton! OMG
He's still my favorite guitar player to this day. My wife took me to see him for Father's Day a couple of years ago and he can still get it done. His tone just absolutely filled that arena. There's just an incredible power in his live playing. People underestimate him at their own peril.

Real insight from a great guitar player..
Kenny's got vibe we understand
Right on Otis!!!
Farm out!!!
From one Hoosier to another
Kenny seems very cool. Such an inspiration.
Otis as usual EXCELLENT
Thanks,I very much enjoyed this video. I love all the cool stories and information you share on your channel.
Kenny is the real deal!
Kenny is a Bro !!!!!!
Would dig hanging out with him !!!!!!!
Amazing video! Thanks man!
Really dug Kenny on Guitar Slim (1926-1959). Jerry Wexler recalls a session in New Orleans when Slim arrived at the studio and announced "I gots to get my singin' pants on!"

kennny vaughn tops my list of some day!
Fun listening. The Superlatives are the best band in the World. Kenny seems like a great guy.
TO BE A GREAT GUITAR PLAYER KENNY ACTS. SO NICE. I WOULD LOVE TO MEET HIM
Priceless stories.
Love Kenny and I've read Les Paul biographys but I don't believe for one second Mary Ford was singing into a Mic while doing the dishes 😂 also Mary was a first class guitarist. Love ye channel Otis
One of my fave Stormy Mondays was Mike Bloomfield,
had it on a cassette, really don’t know when/where
There's an album called, "What's Shaken'" with that Beano Clapton tone. Clapton plays two different versions of Steppin' Out. Paul Butterfield does a song called Lovin' Cup with Bloomfield and Bishop. There's some Otis Rush on it. Stevie Alamo, who sounds a lot like Stevie Winwood sings, I Want To Know with Eric Clapton.
Great show !
With all due respect to Mr. Vaughan, and there is certainly a lot of respect there...I know opinions are like a certain oriface that everyone has and mine differs from his slightly on Clapton, who I just saw two months ago in Denver. I understand his point with the way EC played with Mayall and Cream was somehow like in its own league that maybe has never been equalled, but personnally, to me he really hit peaked with Derek and the Dominos, particularly on some of those...we'll call them "unauthorized" recordings that proliferate. But Mr. Vaughan is not only an astounding guitarist (another one of those that makes me ask myself "why do I even try...I can't match that") but and fantastic story teller and any Otis episode featuring him is going to be a favorite. With best wishes, gentlemen.
Awesome Content, Have a great weekend.
Great stuff!!! Thanks!
