His daughter Emily is also an excellent singer and songwriter with a band called Cosmo Gold. I also write and play guitar and bass in the band, and she is certainly carrying the torch :)
I was living in Denton,Tx working at a lumber yard and I struck up a conversation with an old man named Clint Ballard jr… the writer of “ You’re no Good”…. Among other hits he had.
I bought Andrew Gold's solo album in 1975- it was great. At that time, rock critics here in the UK raved about his understanding of rock guitar riffs and how he wove them into his music and his appreciation of guitar-driven pop music from the 60s. His music is a bit of a time machine for me-and it is scary to realise we are now talking about nearly 50 years on!
Thanks for covering Andrew. I don't think people understand how big of a asset he was for Linda. They had a killer lineup of musicians during 74-77 until Andrew started releasing solo albums. Of course all his friends helped with the production of those records. I learned something about 10-15 years ago he collaborated with Graham Gouldman and they were in a group together for a couple of years: Wax. I don't know how much of his music was playing on this side of the pond. I was a busy person during that time I was going to graduate school and working about 35-40 hours a week. So I may have missed a few things. Plus I sand in my church choir.
Thank you Zac, Andrew is just one of my favorite artists from that era. Very catchy hooks, tones, and melody. He was the ultimate side man - plus, he sings! Great choice for an indepth guitarist.
Now that's out of left field! Bless you for this. I was around - and playing - back in the Linda Ronstadt days. Those were some great solos in those great songs. I remember Andrew Gold.
Gosh Zac, i ever expected to see you do a piece on one of my very favorite musicians, but so glad you did! Such an under acknowledged talent that we lost way too soon. Thanks for another fab vid!
LOVE andrew gold's work ... man was a master riffer. Zac, great analysis of how the guitars were recorded on those two songs! I knew there were lots going on, but some sounded like 12-strings so it's good to know what was really happening, and that, from a former audio engineer/producer and guitarist of 60 years! What fab sounds!
Great stuff Zac! Andrew was hard to miss on radio in the 70's for sure. I remember thinking how cool those guitar parts sounded, years before I'd ever touch an electric (too busy attempting to absorb Blind Blake). I like how often you reference information gleaned from guitar magazines. I had a Guitar Player subscription that started in 1976 and went well into the 90's. Despite saving 'em for years they ended up somewhere else, and I miss having all that great information at my fingertips. Nothing better than sitting down with an old old issue of Guitar Player! The Tommy Tedesco column alone...
I have always been a huge Andrew Gold fan since the release of the "What's Wrong" album. I was so surprised to find an episode of Ask Zac covering his guitar playing and producing. Such an under-rated musician. Thank you for doing this episode.
I knew of Andrew Gold from liner notes but when I heard him open for Buffett and the Eagles in 1977, his rendition of "You Can't Do That" really made me take notice.
Loved this, always been a big fan of Linda and Andrew Gold. Very under rated musician & unforgettable guitar parts on Linda’s work. Never understood how he got some of the sounds he got on those records until today,thanks for an awesome piece!👍🏻
Andrew popped up on my TH-cam suggestions. Mesmerized by Lonely Boy and happily fell down a rabbit hole of all things Andrew Gold. Thanks for this great upload on his life and work.
Thanks for this. I was co-lead guitar/ harmony singer in his last band. I took Jeff Foskett's place. On the YOU'RE NO GOOD instrumental bridge, the chorused guitar part begins on a sus, but resolves. You're not doing that. Check out the original...Best, Steven
Hey, really, REALLY fantastic episode, my friend. I’ve often frozen your videos so I can attempt to suss out which books are on the shelves behind. You think you could do an episode to walk us through all those amazing books?
@@AskZac Well, for what it’s worth… I’ve been a fairly obsessed guitar gear head for over 40 years and I routinely spot books on your shelf that I have somehow missed which, as I am sure you understand, haunts me/lol. Zac, I have lost count of how many astoundingly talented guitarists you’ve mentioned, just in passing, that you’ve turned me onto. Thank you!
Thanks for covering Andrew Gold . Love Linda’s ‘ Hasten down the wind’ release . Andrew does a lot of harmony vocals ie ‘river of Babylon . Love the gospel feel of losing you. But the song of hers that reminds me more of you I’d ‘love is a rose’ great banjo !
Zac, you can have as many pauses as you like! Gold, Dugmore and Wachtel… amazing! Wachtel is a strange bird, but a great guitarist. Thanks again for a well packed story. Sometimes it’s like joining you at a campfire. 👍😀
Super episode. I knew next to nothing about Andrew Gold beyond the LR association, and I’m surprised by his long pedigree!- and, oh my, I LOVED Linda! I was 15 when she was hitting her stride, and I had her posters up around my bedroom with Pink Floyd and Alice Cooper! She was one hot, hippie, country chick! And the best female voice in music for about 30 years! Peace
I came across Andrew Gold's website years back, when he was still alive, and got to ask him some guitar-related questions via a chat posting board there. Definitely an underrated instrumentalist. "That's Why I Love You" (from his 1st solo LP) really highlights his multi-instrumentalist skills IMHO; he plays everything on that track. And I remember hearing "Lonely Boy" and the Linda Ronstadt hits on AM top-40 radio as a kid in the '70s.
I have to say I am jazzed to actually know something about one of these cats 😀 My grandfather was in love with Linda and I remain to be. She is one of those voices from my youth that pops up on the regular singing what ever melody is bouncing around in my melon. I was exposed to Andrew’s playing every day and from Him I started to recognize and learn about dynamics. Thanks for this Zac. 👍
Saw Andrew Gold live in Linda Ronstadt's band (in Toronto) back in mid 70s - around the Hasten Down the Wind release, IIRC. It was a double bill with The Band. Great show, and still have memories!
Thank you so much for talking about a wonderful musician I look up to so much! I learned much that I didn't know and enjoyed hearing someone who I respect very much talk about the great Andrew Gold.
Andrew played electric piano, drums, and guitar on You’re No Good. Those guitar parts of his are amazing. Listen to the studio version again. That decending note is in there, but not the way you played it.
Andrew Gold got his first recording contract with Polydor in London, in 1967. I can recall many years ago reading that his mother, Marni Nixon said he had gone to London and subsequently she saw an article- and I think it was in Life magazine about London's burgeoning music scene- and in it was a photo of her son- in London, although as far as the publishers were concerned- it was a photo of a British musician!
Great episode. Thanks for explaining the gear used for “When will I beloved” Thought I read in a guitar mag that he used an OD pedal with a bad battery. How about an episode covering Dann Huffs work in Nashville. Reba, Clint Black, John Anderson, Blackhawk etc… Thanks
Great information, great storytelling, Zac. So much of the music I listened to as a kid in the '70s I took for granted, the "harmonizing guitars" is but one example. Thank you for sharing your deep historic knowledge on this and putting it all into context.
Andrew, Jesse Ed Davis, and a couple of others are those incredible guitar players who you learn about....then happily find out you've been listening to them for years on countless songs. Love the video, Zac! After watching this, I'm going to go back and rewatch your vid on Jesse.
An engineer friend of mine worked with Andrew while he was with Bryndle making their first album. He said that that guy could play ANYTHING that he picked up! He was a musical genius! Gone way too soon.
I am seriously late in discovering Andrew Gold as a musician. It’s hard not to be aware of the hits songs he had as a solo artist. Heart Like a Wheel is an amazing album. Not a bad track on it, Keep Me From Blowing Away has always been a personal favorite. Appreciate the You’re No Good lesson. Great video Zac!
Wow, I found that Bryndle performance of “When Will I Be Loved” with Ricky Scaggs from TNN on TH-cam really great! Lots of pristine post-production on that…I think he sounded great on the Glaser Bender Tele as you said. I think the guy playing that Tele like a lap steel (Is that Jerry Douglas?!) might have added some harmony at some points in the solo…I hear some harmony guitar at the beginning of the solo. Interesting to see David Hungate from Toto was on bass!
zac-i shit you not I was just in my local grocery store where they play soft rock in the background some of it’s really good Steely Dan lots of great old tunes from the 70’s-but one song I’ve never heard in there ever is “thank you for being a friend” anyhow, I watched your video about Andrew gold this morning, went in the grocery store this evening and that song was playing!I’ve never heard it in there in five years. no lie. crazy
Marni Nixon was Andrew Gold's mother??!!! No wonder Andrew Gold was so talented! Marni Nixon was one of the great all time sopranos in popular music! She could and did sing anything! The U. S. musicals on film would be noticeably poorer if Ms. Nixon hadn't sung in them!
I remember reading in an article years ago that Linda Ronstadt complained about the "Beatle sounding" guitars on "You're No Good". I mean, I love her, but Linda,...please.
There are some cool TH-cam videos of Andrew Gold playing in Linda Ronstadt's touring band with his black strat with white pickups and knobs. His guitar solo in Willin' is very different than Bob Warfor'd's on the record. To my ear it has a little bit of George Harrison's Let It Be solo.
@@AskZac Yes!! I love every last one of them , I cannot count how many times I have watched and rewatched episodes of your fantastic interviews. Ones such as Kenny Vaughan, J.D. Simo ,Audley Freed, Guthrie Trapp and the Maestro Reggie Young are just a few of them, including both parts! Zac ,your interview style is perfect, much like the way Johnny Carson used to interview guests..You let the guest speak and never step all over them. Plus , the questions you do ask, are exactly what I would if I could sit down with any one of those amazing musicians. I hope Tom Bukovac will one day do one with you, now that would be a gem! Thank you for all you do for us fellow guitar lovers! 🤜🏻🤛
I know that Waddy put together a band called Ronnin. It was all Lindas ex players. I saw them one time when they opened up for the Rossington Collins band. Was Andrew in that band? Love you Zac. I can not remember.
you mentioned When Will I Be Loved. the original was the Everly Brothers and one of the guitar players on that session I think youd love Zac! his name was Luke Brandon
@@AskZac Hes from Roane county Tennessee. His dad played with the famous Roane County Ramblers in the 20s. Luke played on records by Frankie Avalon, Fats Domino, The Everly Brothers, Archie Campbell and a million others. Toured with Brenda Lee and David Houston. Turned down an offer from Loretta Lynn. He continued to play sessions and shows in the southeast until his death in 2012. He was 87. A great player who never got his due. Chet learned ALOT from Luke when they played the Mid Day Merry Go Round in Knoxville. That's when Chet switched from fiddle to guitar
Great video about a fabulous musician!!! But not even a mention of his “Whirlwind” record…:-( A great record that really shows off his guitar playing …!!!
Hey Gulf Coast brother big Ed here I'm on the fence about picking up Fishman powerbridge VT for some reason whenever I buy another guitar it's all shiny and new at first then I see my swampy Telecaster and the new guitar ends up in the closet it is a sickness I knew I had a problem with my first wife in divorce court said if he held me is much he held that damn Telecaster we wouldn't be in this situation keep up the good work Zach
I never realized it before but Andrew's brilliant fills on You're No Good recall George Harrison's work on so many tunes but especially some numbers on Abbey Road.
@@rogersommers1129 yes, I'm a fan Polly Klass funeral. Linda is called to sing Polly's favorite song, 'Some where Out There". Live broadcast. I stood there and cried like a baby..
He was my cousin. I’ve been going over his musical out[ut and so much of his work really stands the test of time.
His daughter Emily is also an excellent singer and songwriter with a band called Cosmo Gold. I also write and play guitar and bass in the band, and she is certainly carrying the torch :)
I was living in Denton,Tx working at a lumber yard and I struck up a conversation with an old man named Clint Ballard jr… the writer of “ You’re no Good”…. Among other hits he had.
I knew Andrew Gold was in her band but never knew that solo was him. Iconic!!
Thank you for highlighting a tragically under-appreciated multi-talent who was busy leaping from studio to studio in that vibrant 70s LA scene.
I bought Andrew Gold's solo album in 1975- it was great.

David Lindsey was Linda's cousin.

You are very welcome
Listen to I only have eyes for you by Art Garfunkel. From what I’ve read, Andrew Gold played all the instruments on that record
It's on my spotify playlist

Glad you enjoyed it!
Andrew Gold, Skunk Baxter of Steely Dan, and Richie Heyward of Little Feat together on "You're No Good"? What talent.
Ahh, so it was Mr Gold for that Linda Ronstadt's hit, for some reason I attributed it to Wadi Watchel, thanks for the insights Zac
Waddy played in her live band…
Same here. Thought that was Waddy.
Great video Zac. I really enjoyed the trip down memory lane. He really was a remarkable musician.

Andrew's about the best there is. His guitar playing is the tastiest and is one of my favorite guitarists. SO mad that he's gone.
That opening riff/solo is the first thing I remember hitting my ear in a way that made me want to play guitar

I love your strelecaster! Great job on the Andrew Gold opus “you’re no good” solo. We do that and I’ve been butchering that solo for two years now. 😜

It was Albert Brookes, Linda's boyfriend at the time, who said YNG had a Beatles sound.
Thanks! very cool remembrance of an unsung great!
Thank you so much!!
Nice presentation and thank you for making this video. Best Regards and Best Wishes
Many thanks!
Zac-o: thank you for being a friend.
down the road and back again
Great info. LOVE Andrew Gold!
The 1176 on DI guitars is amazing. Rumor has it that was the Lowell George sound... perhaps (?) even live.
There are some cool TH-cam videos of Andrew Gold playing in Linda Ronstadt's touring band with his black strat with white pickups and knobs. His guitar solo in Willin' is very different than Bob Warfor'd's on the record. To my ear it has a little bit of George Harrison's Let It Be solo.
It was very Harrison-esque...
Incredible episode as per usual. Thanks Zac! And Linda had a ‘62 Strat and a Blackface Deluxe?! Further respect!
Thanks Zac, good job! I'd like to suggest a profile of Duke Levine.
I just need to either learn something of his, or get him to let me use a clip of his playing.
Sounds like Linda owns the good guitars! Great episode Zac, thanks.
Mad about you theme I’d say is my favorite. Awesome show as well
It's wild on the Your No Good clip its Richie Heyward (little feat) on drums and is that Skunk Baxter on congas ?
Yes
Great episode Zac! Hey, have you stopped doing the Tone Lounge interviews permanently? Haven't seen a new one in quite a while.

Thank you!
Which guitar did he use on 'How can this be love?' I love the guitar solo but I can't get the same tone on my guitar.
He used a Strat a ton, and also many times went direct with a limiter.
I know that Waddy put together a band called Ronnin. It was all Lindas ex players. I saw them one time when they opened up for the Rossington Collins band. Was Andrew in that band? Love you Zac. I can not remember.
THANKS! Andrew was not in Ronin, but most of them played on his albums.
love Andrew.......every guitar player needs his own show......yes everyone of them......
you mentioned When Will I Be Loved. the original was the Everly Brothers and one of the guitar players on that session I think youd love Zac! his name was Luke Brandon
Tell me more about Luke
@@AskZac Hes from Roane county Tennessee. His dad played with the famous Roane County Ramblers in the 20s.

Great video about a fabulous musician!!!
But not even a mention of his “Whirlwind” record…:-(
A great record that really shows off his guitar playing …!!!
Outstanding! 😎

⚓️ Thanks Zac 😎
Hi Zac do you know if there is an archive of the interview with John and Andrew?
There is not.
@@AskZac That is a shame. I'm sure there would be money in archive material like that on a subscription service.
