That’s pretty cool, I bet you were blown seeing him play one of your guitars with the Heartbreakers! Did you happen to get a photo with him for your shop?
We’ve actually had many great musicians come into our shop : John Anderson,Robert plant and his band,Doyle bramhall Ii(sold him a guitar)Abe laborial jr,David hildago (sold him a guitar) Jason Schwartzman (sold him a guitar),mick Mars ,queensryche ,trey cool,Vince martell and so so many more
I could listen to/watch him talk about his guitars all day. But let’s face it, with the amazing collection in his possession, it would be a week or more. And I’m here for it! 🎸
@@shivaumesh1129 Correct, I was wondering if anyone would bring that up. I think he does a great job on that song. Maybe not the singer that Tom was , but not bad either.
I heard fairly recently that when Mike (I think) toured with Fleetwood Mac. Stevie Nicks voice coach had heard Mike singing before and wanted to work with Mike. He was surprised by Mike's singing because Mike very rarely sang on tour as a Heart Breaker. After working out some stuff with the voice coach that Mike has become a helluva good singer. I do recall Mike singing a song in a TP and the HB's. I don't remember what tour they were doing.
He harmonized with Tom for a lot of years a part of the Heartbreakers Sound, his guitar playing is top notch and will always be. A personal guitar Hero.
@@randalclarke5487Yeah there was a moment there where he kinda sounded like tom and looked like him and I forgot it was mike. But his music is his own, and I have to say. The Dirty Knobs rock. Not in a “wow, it’s like the Heartbreakers are still a band” sort of way, but in a “hey, these guys are awesome, I dig their rock” sort of way. I’ve actually been listening to them a bit more than Heartbreaker stuff lately. It fits the mood more idk why
Mike is a very tasteful and articulate player, never over plays the song, he makes the “just right” accents within the framework of the song. Listen to American Girl or Stop Dragging My Heart Around, just killer licks. Thankfully he’s still making music for all of us to enjoy, thanks Mike
I'm pretty sure that is the common census on Mike's playing. I don't think I've ever heard or read a comment about how Mike overplays or shows up a song. Thanks for clarifying. I almost for one moment thought Mike played way too many notes.
Probably comes from having played so many live gigs in Mudcrutch and early Heartbreakers. Playing dives requires a tight band with just the right fills.
This guy is a sensational guitarist, he drank from the pure fountain, Clapton, Page, Beck, Green. It does a wonderful job. Excellent composer and singer. In short: living rock legend! Greetings from Brazil.
I needed a spine surgery and was in my first appt with a top neurosurgeon. He asked me what I like to do. I told him I like to play the guitar and have been for 40 years. He smiled, pointed to his brain and said,”there is nothing better for the mind. You’re physically doing something that has to happen with a rhythm and have to anticipate changing your hands to something else at an exact time within the rhythm…” and all the other stuff that comes with playing. He spoke for a good five minutes about it. He was Right!
Mike Campbell’s the real deal. Easily my favorite guitar player. Every note counts. He serves the song and his leads are legendary. A huge inspiration/influence on me musically.
I want to specially appreciate you for being a big fan. Thanks for your nice. Comment on my post, it means alot to me . I want you to send me a direct message via Hangouts using my personal email that will be indicated below.

Mike is simply remarkable ❤ I have been a huge fan since my first heartbreakers concert in the 90s. What a gem and phenomenal talent 🎉 Thank you Mike for your amazing gift ! Love you loads ❤❤
The hook-ish sounds Mike Campbell consistently creates - using open chords married with specific guitars -- is nothing short of a gift from God. Yet it is we are the beneficiaries. I can listen to him for hours. Missing Tom so often, but hearing Mike sing is the perfect TP "salve".
Wouldn’t be one without the other….when Tom and the guys drove across country to L.A. and initially got rejected, he made Mike swear he’d never leave him…best American rock band the worlds ever known
Let me be the first person to point these two things out. Mike's voice sounds like Tom Petty's voice. And, if you were unaware, Mike gives the song exactly what it needs. Every note counts. Never a wasted note. He serves the song and isn't afraid not to play a note. I am letting you all know these things because it's been a very very very well kept secret but finally this secret must be shared with the world. I hope I didn't shatter anyone else's beliefs on Mike's voice or playing.
What can I say that hasn’t been said, the man is incredible. His loyalty to Tom Petty for all those years I mean come on how many musicians can say that. Now some people might say he stood behind Tom as his guitar player …I say he stood next to Tom and made him sound that much better. I’ve just always thought Mike was a terrific guitar player with great backing vocals . And now he gets to shine with his own band with some great songs of his own…👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
My wife and I saw Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers in Houston multiple times over the years and always enjoyed the shows but, my favorite part was always when Tom would let Mike off of his leash for a few minutes to do whatever he was feeling. Good times, great tones, and just the right notes.
What a great musician this guy is. Always loved his playing, and hopefully he brings the Dirty Knobs to the east coast so I can go see 'em live! I don't want to say he's an "underrated" guitarist because it's cliche and I think everybody knows by now that he's one of the best to ever do it.
So true about music, i was driving in 1972 on weber rd. and Maggie May came on the radio tell this day when i here that song it takes me there, i can even smell it.
He’s such a great underrated musician and a great person as well. Friends of mine met Tom and the Heartbreakers before a show in 1978 or 79 and they told me that Mike was a really nice unassuming guy. One of my friends complimented him and told him that his playing reminded him of Keith Richards. And he thanked him and said he wish he was as good as Keith. That sort of tells you what kind of person he is. No big rock star ego just a really nice unassuming guy
Love this guy! Had the privilege of seeing TP & the HB's on their last two tours. Tom & Mike's voices are almost identical, Mike talks just a bit faster. If you play this at .75 speed....it's damn near Tom's voice. Wild!
great guitarist and all round great guy. you always need another guitar, there are songs in them, its amazing. he always gives you a story and the background, superb. just in case anyone wondered or is interested, the 12 string he is playing is a Martin D12-20. wonderful bright 12 string with the 12th fret neck join. I have one that was made in 1968.
Mike is a legend who supported Tom and was 50 percent of their success. He proved that less was more with his signature riffs and solos. Never flashy or arrogant.
If you are a young new player or an old seasoned Pro you can do a lot worse than to pay close attention to Mike Cambell. This guy is very capable but posesses the greatest gifts of great taste and always serving the songs.
Nadine's music store in Hollywood on Santa Monica Blvd near Vine Street. Big blue sign with distinctive script lettering. Kind of tucked in-between a couple other buildings, you parked around back and that was where the entrance was. Cozy shop filled with great gear and friendly folks. Fair, working musician prices. Been gone a long time, still missed!
In Richmond, Virginia, 1977 and '78, I lived and worked in The Fan district. The bohemian and upper class artsy part of the city. I used to see handmade flyers posted on telephone poles, every few weeks, advertising "Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers". I thought that was the coolest name for a band; they were playing at venues for 30 to 60 people I'd guess but never did get out to see them. What a missed opportunity...two years worth! I became quite an admirer of the Heartbreakers' persistence and their art. Mike Campbell obviously listens carefully to his bandmates as he plays, because he never overplays or outdoes them. He finds the opportunities to enhance the "context" so to speak. This video is the first time I've heard him speaking. He comes across as humble, passionate, knowledgeable and articulate in a down-to-earth way. This vid makes me imagine he and I could talk for hours. I wish you "pura vida", Mike. -Doug Pratt, Atlanta, Georgia, USA
@@charlie-obrien well, I'm one of those producers and writers who uses a lot of those tools and I've heard really good stuff and bad stuff too. Made some myself.
@@JeffBostick222 It's not that it can't be good, of course it has advantages. But, the overall effect across the industry is that it has homogenized the sound of each genre, so that a lot of music is indistinguishable from the majority. I don't know if you ever record country, but look at what it has done to those artists. Same goes for Hip Hop and down the line. That's why to our oversaturated ears, Mike with his 4 man group playing and sing with real talent and passion sounds so good right now.
Great Interview with one of the greatest musicians of today and the last 50 years! Very humble and down to earth and one of my top guitar heroes and influences. My last three or four guitars that I've purchased are because of Mike. Would've loved to hear about Mike's Goldtop in this interview but the Broadcaster is just as good and the '59 sounded out of this world! The red Firebird VII that Mike mentioned was a beautiful guitar!
Amazing! Love Mike’s playing! When I was stationed overseas and The Heartbreakers would come on the radio, for a couple minutes; I felt like I was home.
Isn't Neil Young's Black Beauty ( or whatever he named it ) also a '59 that has been painted and had the neck pickup changed to a mini-humbucker out of a Firebird ?
One of the best interviews I have ever heard from a great guitar player.Class act! Hey Mike! I was the photograher who took the rain photo from Austin City Limits Festival. Sunday night. Good thing you made it off the stage. In that wild thunder lighting storm! Ps. I have another great photo from that show. No rain. But I bet you will really like it!
Mike is awesome, what a wonderful musician. And he is so right...I love to write instrumental music and each guitar I build or purchase inspires different music and playing.
Yeeeaaahhh Mike!!! So glad your putting out the new music! Keep it coming and keep a steady pace for our ears out here listening! Your a leader we desperately need as American artists ❤️
Tom0s voice sounds eerily like Tom's. And his guitar playing is not technically outstanding, but exactly what is needed for the song. Mike is the George Harrison of the Heartbreakers. It's no surprise that George and Tom got together. Soul Brothers. And Mike is a Soul Brother with anyone that was taken away with a TPATH song.. Merci for all you've done.
Hi Mike, here's a short story for you. Flying from Georgia to Arcadia Ca. Knobs were playing at blues club. End of last set, you put the guitar in its stand and you left the stage in a hurry. But this guitar had a little life left so it jumped from the stand. As it was falling ,I reached out and caught it before it hit the floor. No broken neck this time. The concert was great. You even signed a couple of photos for me. Thanks for that as well. Love the music. Thanks for the covid songs. Your wife did a great job filming. Stay safe. Charlene Savannah Georgia

It’s just crazy how bright nearly any guitar sounds in his hands.
Mike has written as many iconic riffs as anyone in history and his voice complimented Tom's perfectly. What a legend.
I could listen to his stories all day.
I could listen to/watch him talk about his guitars all day. But let’s face it, with the amazing collection in his possession, it would be a week or more. And I’m here for it! 🎸
You can feel the love. Truly... he really appreciates the beauty of his guitars. Contagious enthusiasm. 😎🎸👍
One of the finest Guitarists, who gives the song exactly what it needs!
Master Mike Campbell! 🎸
I'll add to that statement if I may "and nothing more". He's a fantastic guitarist! 👍
One of the best rock guitar players of all time.
Wildly underrated
Can't believe Mike spent decades not singing. He sounds like Tom's brother. Eerie and wonderful.
It's that Florida twang I guess
He sang lead on the Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers song "I don't wanna fight" from Echo

Not fair. Mike is a musician on his own. Let him be his own person

@@jtyler780 I think you misunderstood his comment...come on, you've got to admit the guy eerily sounds and even looks like Tom

You’re right Mike. A world without music would be sad. Thank you for sharing your art.
Mike is just as much of a treasure as Tom was.
Wouldn’t be one without the other….when Tom and the guys drove across country to L.A. and initially got rejected, he made Mike swear he’d never leave him…best American rock band the worlds ever known
I got chills when Mike was singing Irish girl. You can feel the spirit of Tom channeled through him. Just beautiful.
They have fairly similar voices
@@TylerJamesPryor I kept looking up to see who was “speaking”
I said something very similar on Irish Girl when he released it.
