JT knew what he was talking when you talk about music. I felt the same immense connection with him when he was talking about music rhythm which I had my own description of it as far as I know.. Up to now, 💘 💘 watching this guy
Yes he is. He took this interview seriously too. Charles sent him our questions in advance so he could honestly answer them. The entire interview was 33 minutes long!
Johnny Rocks! I like how that left hand of his keeps talking ( - : and when you watch that talking hand ... see the callouses on his finger-tips ... one hard working passionate bass-player ... Great talk, loved it!
🎸JT KNOWS HIS SHIT!!!🎶 His knowledge of rock music is phenominal!!! Being a "Duranie" opened up a whole world of music to me!! Once I dove deeper into their musical influences like Roxy Music, Japan, Chic, Bowie and Queen (which I was already huge fan of) really did open up so much musically to me! I am eternally grateful to JT and Duran Duran for that!!! ROCK ON EVERYONE!!!
Seconded on that. I remember the two CDs on heavy rotation in my car back then were Power Station and Sign. I had a pretty long commute back then and I remember letting the first Sign CD go straight through. I sat in the parking lot at my job just completely blown away while the first CD finished. Made my day hearing him talk about that record.
Rick W as a kid I was obsessed with wanting to learn the bass line on Save a prayer. I learned it and played it over and over. Then eventually I got tired of it. But to this day whenever I pick up a bass, it’s the first thing I play out of habit. I learn to play save a prayer at 14, in 59 yrs old now. I am still a huge Duran Duran fan.
As a music fan who still buys cds/albums and doesn't just download songs individually, I loved it when John mentioned listening to an album from start to finish. How else can you fully appreciate the artist's musical vision/journey? And based on that, I will certainly buy Solange's Seat at the Table and listen the whole way through. Really nice interview!!
So cool to listen to another Musician break down some of his favorite Music... And as he said “Seat at the Table” by Solange is quite a mind expanding experience. Thanks JT.
I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYONE COMPARES TO JOHN....RIGHT NOW AS WELL. WHO SAYS THE CONTRARY IS JUST JELOUS. WELL, I CAN UNDERSTAND, BUT I CAN'T JUSTIFY THAT. DEFINITELY
Just stumbled on this channel tonight via this and the Robert Trujillo episodes - and I am hooked. What a dream come true. To hear these various musical personalities of my disparate youth talking about the musics of their own disparate youths...what more is there to say. Thank-you.
The great thing about them and many bands of their generation was how much of music enthusiasts they were and still are.John and Simon still buy vinyl records when they can and they all keep abreast of new music.Just check out their podcasts!!!!
@@michaelscoots Those two songs, along with Lonely in Your Nightmare, are my favorites from that album, in large part because of the bass, which directly correlates to the nearly 40-year crush I've had on John Taylor. Check out the bass line on Lonely again - it's a bit more subtle, but it's equally gorgeous!
@@michaelscoots for me the bass on "Careless Memories" and the bass solo on "Planet Earth" always remind me of his skill and unique style. i still haven't figured out how to play the bass solo.
Es un verdadero placer escuchar a John hablar de discos. Me hizo quere ir y co prar esos discos y escucharlos. Cobcuerdo totalmente con lo que dijo del White Album.
How to succeed in "interviewing": 1) ask a rock titan who has stood athwart the world a dumb question 2) he/she unleashes a spectacular, self-deprecating, humble, authentic, funny, illuminating 15 minute stream-of-conciousness that surprises even the most jaded person (if Robert Cristgau watched this, his head would blow off into the Hudson River) 3) END
that dude is a tool. i pretty much have the polar opposite perspective of everything he reviews. it's a wonder how he managed to maintain employment in the field of being a music critic for so long.
He is a bassist of Duran Duran, but he play several different musical instruments, including guitars, after the bandmate, Andy Taylor left the group in 1985 to do his solo career.
Amazing choices..Beatles aficionado would put White at the top...Prince fan would put Sign of the Times at the top..Stranded is if you have most of the Roxy collection. Well done John!
Went early to a Neurotic Outsiders show to get John on my Rio CD insert (I know...) I ask one of my friends have you seen John Taylor? And hes like, he's behind you. I didn't notice this guy was behind me awkwardly close because he was walking and I stopped, so it's already kind of weird. Super nice guy, signed the insert and then he's just standing there next to me, waiting for someone (?) And now I am too (waiting for someone) so were just standing there leaning on this wall and im thinking, say something to him, ask him something cool, but I'm just...blank. So I finally decide to just turn and start talking and I look at him and say..."Uh, thanks John" and he's all "absolutely", shakes my hand and I then walk outside the venue even though I was supposed to be inside. I can't remember if I went back to my car I might be blocking that out due to embarrassment.
For me... Duran Duran's first 2 Albums; Led Zep's "# 4"; Pink Floyd's "Wish you were here"; STP's "Purple" and The Tragically Hip's - "Fully Completely"... btw - RIP Gord Downie - Lead Singer of "The Hip" and Canada's Poet Laureate of the masses - amazing Lyrics.
I really appreciate his comments about the white album. Never thought about it before, but it was the "end of the 60s". Abbey Road is the portent of the 70s. Genius.
RIML_TV I’d definitely drive 1200kms for John Taylor too. 100% worth it. Brilliant interview. Loved that you didn’t talk over him, just let him reminisce and tell the stories. Perfect. ✨🙌🏼👍🏼
I could get down romantically with some Bryan Ferry. I love Bryan Ferry! Wish I could find a man who appreciates my musical tastes. I don't like hip hop but it seems that's all everybody likes these days. And he likes Solange! He has great taste! I so connect with John on that.
Maye McDonald Right??? England is a place so musically fertile, incredible bands came from there! Isnt rare for me to discover a new band thinking that they're from USA - as 90% of the musical influence we have in Brazil - and then I find out that they're from England. I really want to do a deep search in their 60s-90s decades cause Im sure I dont know nothing yet! (sorry for any mistake in my english hahahaha)
Got to agree with Johnny Boy, Sign O the times album, game changer! "I got a free ticket last minute to see Duran Duran in the eighties,, I'm thinking bunch of overrated pretty boys! Omg was I wrong,, They were brilliant musicians and they blew the roof off, fantastic live band!
You're right. We've filmed almost 200 interviews and I'd say the Beatles have come up in at least 40% of them. I know a few guests purposefully refrained from listing the Beatles as it seemed too obvious to them! Their influence will forever more be heard in music.
You're probably right, but I'll go further to say I should have been more wary of the water fountain that was behind me when we shot. However it looked good and honestly when John Taylor is giving you an interview you kinda want to go with what he wants rather than take up even more time looking for a more perfect situation. Audio is always an issue on our show because we often film backstage while bands are sound-checking or performing, I'm running both camera(s) and audio, plus we are usually on a tight time constraint. Sometime we have to accept what we're offered and hope for the best. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment, appreciate it!
@@Northerntransmissions Nothing wrong with aesthetics, but suggest Mic Cover going on as soon as Mic is lifted from box/bag, by default, before sound-check (only takes seconds), then work levels from there. Thanks for replying!

I could listen to him talk about music for hours. His passion is infectious . . .
It's amazing how deeply and personally John Taylor feels and understands music as well as making some great music himself. Thxoxo.
Rio would definitely be among the “Records in my Life”. And John is a big part of the reason.
I love this man, hot and one of the best bass players.
Great bass player, great fella. Thanks for watching, appreciate the support. XC
My wake up moment was when as a 12 year old in 81 I heard the bass sound on Planet Earth. That's when I knew I needed to play bass.
1981 was a special year for music. It was my "wake up moment" as well. And like yourself, I'm a bassist.
Have you checked out his lockdown tutorial?
@@christopherking3937 I have Christopher. His "Some like it hot" tutorial was a great help.
Just Playing Bass I love it how he breaks the song up into ABC and his enthusiasm is infectious!
@@christopherking3937 I have. They're very entertaining.
Band of my youth, band for life!
I love John Taylor the bassist and the man 🔥
he's just soooo COOL.Period.
Love Bug the coolest
AGREE and VERRRRRRRRY SWEET
what a great dude- he truly loves music
me encanta jhon taylor ❤! aunque tube que usar subtitulos! es un placer escuchar su historia!
gracias, abrigado XC
Great interview! Thanks for letting John Taylor talk about his music influence without interruption! I just love this guy since 1982!
Thank you so much, we had a great time meeting him too!
I could listen to that man talk about music all day long!
John Talking about Prince makes me feel so happy! 2 of my music genious!
JT knew what he was talking when you talk about music. I felt the same immense connection with him when he was talking about music rhythm which I had my own description of it as far as I know.. Up to now, 💘 💘 watching this guy
He's so articulate! Great to hear.
Apart from saying "you know" every two seconds, lol :-)
@@sarahtullamore1873 But less common than "I mean" these days 😉.
Daniel.
Yes absolutely!
Duran Duran's first two albums were my daily meditation in '82-84.. They still got it and can take me straight to the center of Planet Earth!!!
He is a true music lover.
Yes he is. He took this interview seriously too. Charles sent him our questions in advance so he could honestly answer them. The entire interview was 33 minutes long!
RIML_TV anyway to see the rest?
Roxy music was amazing magical voice and sounds! Come undone sounds like that magic!!
Loved that. What a legend. Still loving it after all these years. Top bloke
Johnny Rocks! I like how that left hand of his keeps talking ( - : and when you watch that talking hand ... see the callouses on his finger-tips ... one hard working passionate bass-player ... Great talk, loved it!
Thanks for checking it out.
Dude ! ! He is soo cool !!!
hes so smart .♡ you John
I could listen to JT speak for the rest of my life!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️He has a sexy calm voice.
Ciertamente... esa voz está llena de sensualidad... 🙃 su tono, su acento, su articulación, sus muletillas... llega hasta lo más profundo!!!😍😍😍
Didn't know anything about John Taylor or Duran Duran as they have never been my thing. Must say, what a lovely , smart guy.
He is. Met him a few times in the 80s - and he was kind and charming. Can't believe we're both 60 now!
JOHN YOU ARE MY MUSIC ICON.
🎸JT KNOWS HIS SHIT!!!🎶

Prince «Sign O’The Times» is one of my favorite albums ever! Thanks, JT!

😂
Duran Duran sum up the ‘80s for me. ❤
Awesome. He's a Beatles fan! COOL beans.
Thanks for the interview very interesting he's still roking more than ever Duran Duran are my favorite band ever
Great Bass Player!!!
Absolutely.

Come Undone is the Best Duran Duran song.
Amazing interview! I love his continued passion for music and I found myself nodding in agreement many times throughout the interview. Well done!
Awesome, thank you! Glad you liked it.
I agree. It's a very good interview. Very honest and thorough.

Mmm... That voice!!!🙃🙃🙃
Wonderful interview.
Thank you!
:)
He summed up the appeal of The Beatles White Album perfectly.
I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYONE COMPARES TO JOHN....RIGHT NOW AS WELL. WHO SAYS THE CONTRARY IS JUST JELOUS. WELL, I CAN UNDERSTAND, BUT I CAN'T JUSTIFY THAT. DEFINITELY
He and McCartney are two of my favorite bass players
Two excellent bassists.
And they were both influenced by and copied the same bassist... John Gustafson 😉 Gus and McCartney were friends.
Wonderful interview....Thanks million...!!!
i love the fact he adores Prince

The Power Station showcased his talent on bass.
Sure but the first DD album does as well along with the Rio album. The bass on New Religion and Rio is awesome.

not really, early DD stuff did it much better.
Nice background with the flowers.
I really enjoyed that, thank you, John. Thank you RIML_TV
I’m now, Thursday 26 May 2022 watching this for the first time ever, following her/them in my Bandcamp fans account.
Es un verdadero placer escuchar a John hablar de discos. Me hizo quere ir y co prar esos discos y escucharlos. Cobcuerdo totalmente con lo que dijo del White Album.
His favorite Beatles album is my favorite too, coincidence? I dont think so, we totally should marry
ahahahahha
lol
You keep leaving that same comment on all the RIML videos?? Weird.....kinda creepy.....do u even have a daughter or is this some sort of fantasy?
Yeah, sure...

I listened to Seat at the table today, great stuff. Thanks for the recommendation x

I was impressed to be able to see in a long time
Lovely hard working passionate, talented guy love Duran Duran cant wait for the release of their new album.
I am an Duranie Love love Duran Duran love u John.
just love the fact he remembers one true unknown legend: John Gustafson
Era il mio amoreeeeeeee😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Still handsome 😍
Amazing choices..Beatles aficionado would put White at the top...Prince fan would put Sign of the Times at the top..Stranded is if you have most of the Roxy collection. Well done John!
Ero innamoratissima di lui......che figo che era ....ed è ancora un uomo affascinante 💋💋💋💋💋💋👿💋
Extremely erudite chap as well as effortlessly charming, and not just saying that because is one of my favourite albums too! 🙂
LOVE HIM!!!

It's so amazing. John was my first fan love. Please tell me. Then will Duran Duran come back to Germany
Love him
How did I miss this?
This was our first interview we drove 1200 km to film!

Vi amo Duran Duran
He'so right about the Solange record.Truly great album and transformative as he said!!!!Very affecting!!!
You havent been to New Zealand yet with the Paper Gods tour lol. Don't forget New Zealand lol

John "You Know" Taylor !
whats this list? these are my favourites ,whatever it is , too
think the beatles influenced everyone and its nice that john taylor is saying that good on you john

Sad to hear about Andy Taylor
Does John like Joni Mitchell? I wonder which album(s) of hers he enjoys?
Oowwh joohnn..
Good interview, but should have used microphone cover to blot out some of the ambient sounds and the hiss.
