Kenny is a living legend. Man what a picker. His bandmate Chris Scruggs is an animal too. Awesome interview.
Thanks Brett Hamilton, Rock on! 🎸🙌🏻🔥🎶 subscribe: elg.fun/subscribe
Fabulous Superlatives are impeccable
No Doubt Chris Scruggs = American Bad Ass
Just watched Kenny with Lucinda spankin them Gretsch's outstanding what a talent !
That is how Marty met him. He saw him play with Lucinda and asked who he was. The begining of a beautiful friendship.

I first saw Kenny because I love Marty Stuart's music. But after watching that group for a while, Kenny has become one of my all-time favorite musicians. I watch all of his interviews and I'm fascinated by the stories he tells.
Yes, I agree @donnawilliams4148 - thanks for listening 💥 🎶 🎸 !
Love Kenny and Chris, for their knowledge and storytelling. I just dislike MS. He uses his power to push people around. Many years ago, there was a very talented Canadian musician playing with a gospel band in the south. He gave notice he was going home for long enough to get married. Marty threatened him, told him if he left, Marty would make sure his career in the US was over.
Every time I hear MS talking about his heart, I could vomit.
Kenny just combines it all! He is the definition of the “Americana sound” awesome guitar!
Yes, I agree @blucheer8743 - thanks for listening 💥 🎶 🎸 !
I am always so impressed by Kenny Vaughan's openess to learning from others and to the constant improvement of his already awesome guitar skills.
Kenny has great Tom Petty stories. Lucinda opened for Tom probably 50 times. She was the opener for Petty's last show at the Hollywood bowl. Mike Campbell produced Way Out West.
I love you Kenny Vaughn! Rock on ❤
Thanks for listening!
I am so looking forward to seeing Kenny play with Marty tomorrow night! Ready to have my face melted😀
I've had the pleasure to see KV live with MS at least a half a dozen times, spent time with him after a show and he was kind enough to autograph my 63 Tele. I can't say enough good stuff about the man, his talent, and the mark he is choosing to leave on our planet. God Bless KV and thanks for the great interview.
Thank you for listening Calvin ! 🎉🔥😇
Tommy Bolin was from Sioux City, Iowa. I grew up with his family.
Hearing cousin Kenny play makes us happy, and we love that it makes Kenny happy too!
Thank you for listening @rickstrandberg6398! 🎉🔥😇
I remember running away from home when I was 6 to go the record store with my older sister to get a record I couldn’t life without. When I got home I got the strap for getting my sister in trouble. but it was worth it. still love music to this day. So nice to hear the harmonies etc guitar picking it enspires me even to this day. Love this stuff more exciting to me than being fancy. I play guitar now wish I could play with these guys just once.
Cousin Kenny is one of my favorite hero's. Class act for sure.
This is the 3rd episode in a row that’s been recommended to me. First Dam Baird brought me here. What an incredible talk that was! Otis Gibbs put me on to the genius of Dan Baird and Kenny Vaughn. I’m just starting down this rabbit hole. I can’t wait to find more. He’s a monster in that tele. Great podcast and great questions. Very cool work you’re doing here.
Thanks for your kind words Thomas and glad you're digging the show - peace man! 👍🏻🎸♫
but don't say "rabbit hole" please
This is a fantastic interview. Thanks a bunch conducting and posting this. Kenny's CD is great and all Marty's cds and albums are good. The last CD " Way Out West" is a MASTERPIECE.
Glad you enjoyed this and thanks for listening! 👍
I totally agree about Way Out West. Mike Campbell produced and it was recorded in Mike's home studio.
Seen Kenny V many times since Lucinda Williams. It doesn't get more honest then a Tele & a Tube amp. He is truly a TELEMEISTER!!
That he is... glad you liked the interview, Dave - and thanks for your feedback. CG
Thank you thank you thank you I just found your channel. I’m always searching for any thing on Kenny. The interview was off the map enjoyable. Looking forward to watching the rest of your channel. Did I say thanks
Hey Michael, lol best email ever man. Thanks a bunch for taking the time to let me know you're digging the shows, glad you are enjoying them. Sign up to the ELG newsletter list at EveryoneLovesGuitar.com - in the next few days I'm going to start sending out sneak previews of future interviews and you'll be able to send in questions for them as well.

A REAL PLAYER AND GREAT GUY
Love your content. Tommy Bolin is my favourite guitar slinger and to hear Kenny talk of him is magic. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for your kind words @billyshane3804 and glad you enjoyed this 👍🏻🎸♫
What cool stories and what a nice person. He deserves his memories. I love the Tommy Bolin stories
Glad you enjoyed the interview @littlejimeeeerr, and thanks for listening 💥 🎶 🎸 !
I moved to Colorado because of legal weed and wanted to be in Tommys old stomping ground. Kenny is one of my new guitar heros as I just recently discovered him. I wondered if they knew each other. Great video.
Thank you for listening stratocaster1greg! 🎉🔥😇
Following the weed. Yeah, great life choice.
@@chuckschillingvideos Ha Ha obviously not your criteria (mine either) but you could do a lot worse than to end up in Colorado!
Kenny is fantastic, he has a really wide apreciation of popular music, that's why he is so good himself. He is so right about the Beatles, music was never the same again. I equate it to that scene in the Wizard of Oz, when Dorothy opened the door after the tornado and the world had changed from black and white to technicolor.
Lovin' Kenny's comments on Willie Nelson. Such a master of timing and style. Listen to the way that he changed the way that EVERYBODY hears Stardust today. Before Willie Stardust was an upbeat Vic Damone sort of pop/jazz. Not today.
I had a similar reaction to the Beatles Sullivan shows. They played that show on my 11th birthday. I had never heard of them before and after that my life found a new direction. I still play at age 70.. Kenny is such a well grounded guy.
Right on @jonathanhorne6503, thanks for listening! 🎸💥🙌🏻
Chris Scruggs is the Einstein of country music!❤
1ST TIME I HEARD & SAW KENNY VAUGHAN PLAY,, I HAVE TO SAY,, I REMEMBER TELLING (asking out loud, "where did they ever find this guy at!!??)" I was awestruck every TIME he broke into a lead breaK,, KV. A NATIONAL TREASURE!!! A true master of the telecaster, & many others,,,,,,
For sure!
I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. I saw Marty Stuart and the Fabulous Superlatives earlier this year (2023). They played the best show I’ve seen and heard in a long long time. I’m hoping I get to see them again before tickets get much higher. I paid $44.95 and I think it was a bargain .This band is just fantastic.
Glad you enjoyed the interview @danielcombs3207, and thanks for listening 💥 🎶 🎸 !
ol' kenny inspires me to simply keep learning songs. then go play em out in a bar. love me some kenny v.
Take note from Kenny Vaughan: Glowing praise for John McLaughlin.
Thanks for this video here, Kenny is my Hero, Cousin Figel
Kenny dropped a lot names, and I’m checking out each and every one of them.
Great interview! I love the Paco de Lucia story. He must have really been a weed head! I was standing at a urinal in Sarasota Florida before one of his shows and apparently his percussionist is at the urinal next to me and starts asking me if I had any weed also for Paco! 😂
That is cool @psst...heyyou6508! Thanks for listening 💥🎶🔥
Just caught the Superlatives at The Grand, Frankfort. Aptly named, all 4 Members multi-instrumentalists, lead and 4 part harmony's that can't be beat. My advice - go see them before it's too late.
Yes, I agree sonnyboybluesharp Fargo - thanks for listening 💥 🎶 🎸 !
I am gonna wait til after it's too late then go see them.
When you open the double LP import of Electric Ladyland; you'll see what I believe to be the coolest picture of Jimi that I've ever seen.
I will add, I am in a project with my wife and brother in law. They are both amateurs, brother in law being pretty much a beginner on mandolin. I came upon a juncture when being the recordist, he turns, after a take, and to me asks, "How was that?" Later after he left I talked to my wife about this. I told her that years ago, I didn't know her brother's ability. I have come to realize he is a beginner. When he asks me, how he did, I can't ask him to play beyond his ability. I ask what he thinks of the take, if he likes it, great, if not we redo it. Hearing Kenny talk about being the bad cop is something I know is coming....soon.
Thank you for listening @syn707! 🎉🔥😇 And good luck, won't be an easy conversation...
@@EveryoneLovesGuitar Oh God..help me! Lol
GREAT INTERVIEW. One that should be modeled by so called journalists. You truly get into the mindset of Kenny.
I can relate to Kenny speaking of radio stations back in the late 50s and 60s....you’d hear all genres of music. As a budding musician it can’t but affect your listening ‘palette’. Great job done here!
Robert! Thanks man for your kind words and really glad you enjoyed the interview - thanks for listening!
How did I never hear of Kenny Vaughan until 5 years ago? I lived just north of Denver at the same time and we have a lot in common and probably the same age... I got his number. Denver Pop Festival? I was there and was a few feet from Jimi and saw Noel quit the band! Univibes magazine has an article interviewing me about what that night was like.... damn...
Glad you enjoyed the interview @cravinbob, and thanks for listening 💥 🎶 🎸 !
thanks for the energy, got to go to a gig and didnt really want to go, but this is like hell ya lets do it!
Right on @ScottStentenFilms, thanks for listening! 🎸💥🙌🏻
Love Kenny! What a great person!!
Kenny’s one of the best there is
Kenny is my favorite guitarist all around. Great guy. A also loved your Jeff Carlisi interview. and of course Andy Summers.
Thanks for your kind words @tjnugent62 and glad you enjoyed this 👍🏻🎸♫
Wonderful interview
These are really great interviews!! I've seen Kenny multiple times with Marty - and once with Lucinda opening for the ABB. Craig - love what you're doing. It's obvious you're not as familiar with country music history but you still show all music great respect. Thanks.
Thanks Jeff, glad you're digging the interviews. Yes, my knowledge of country music is fairly limited. In fact, the truth is... with all the genres of artists I interview, it would be impossible to know even half of them well. But for me, it's about the player and what makes them tick. So as you said, I get a bit of a pass on the music end :-) Thanks for your kind words and thanks for your support! CG
EveryoneLovesGuitar Foo Fighters’ Chris Schifflett is doing a country music podcast and he’s kinda hitting it from the perspective of a casual fan and not really knowing as much on the history. It’s still awesome. Keep doing what you’re doing. Only way we learn is to hear it.
Chris, thanks for listening and thanks for your kind words and support man! CG
Such a cool guy.
i think tommy bolins guitar playing on billy cobhams album "spectrum" is some of the best ive ever heard...
Yes, I agree blues dogg music /rediker - thanks for listening 💥 🎶 🎸 !
That it was.
Tommy didn't leave Denver until 73.His girlfriend at that time was Karen Ullibari. He did move to L.A.
And Tommy wasn't from South Dakota....he was from Iowa.
Ray Mazarek never played a Farfisa organ. He played Vox Continental and then a Gibson combo organ G-101 combo organ made by the Lowrey Organ Company Chicago. Which was very fitting since Ray was also from Chicago, Ill. Robby Krieger always played the Gibson SG as his main instrument. It was his firast electric guitar. He was actually a trained Flamenco guitarist, and so never used a pick. He also played a '54 Les Paul Custom for slide.
That's correct. He never played a farfisa.
Robbie Krieger had a classical guitar background.
That's why he never used a pick. At least that's the story I heard.
There weren't a lot of finger pickers in the rock world back then.
John Cipolina of Quicksilver was another favorite of mine.
Mine as well !
Wonderful interview! just finished it. Thanks So Much!
Thank you for listening William Windham! 🎉🔥😇
I see Marty and the WONDERFUL Superlatives next month in Napa…cannot wait❤❤❤
Right on @SeeCSeesCC, thanks for listening! 🎸💥🙌🏻
@@EveryoneLovesGuitar thanks for having your wonderful channel. It is so very appreciated.
@@SeeCSeesCC Thanks for your kind words!
I can't wait to see them again. Especially Handsome Harry singing about pretty boy floyd.. And those guitars... Hope you have a great time!!
@@jonathanjohnson8656 your comment is very appreciated
Saw the Superlatives With Marty Stuart at Buck Owens Chrystal Palace,Cousin Kenny plays so good it makes me mad,i can't seem to play lead,but all them boys are multi talented,When Scruggs plays that peddle less steel it's like heaven in a tin can.MERCY!!!!
Right on @ChiefThundermoon, thanks for listening! 🎸💥🙌🏻
To be at the same table with Paco, smoking and playing and nobody else there..Must've been magic.
Cool stuff. Tony Rice said the same thing about his own playing, he thought he always played the same.
Thanks Craig for introducing me to these interesting and lovely talented people, great interview!
You're very welcome, Adam. Thanks for listening and glad you are enjoying the show! :-) CG
Cousin Kenny is the man
I just saw them in the North West on their Stapelton tour. I was blown away. So incredibly good! Thanks for this interview.
You're welcome Bo. And thank you for finally allowing me to call someone Bo. That's like THE coolest name ever. Only took me 54 years to get there. Glad you liked the interview and thanks for listening! CG
EveryoneLovesGuitar Hahaha, glad I could help you out! I enjoyed the interview so much, you have a new subscriber.
Cool Bo! We got some great interviews coming up man, you'll dig 'em.
EveryoneLovesGuitar I'm headed into you backlog now....lol. I too love guitar!
Have fun brother, it is a DEEEEEP dive -Enjoy!
Mann I'd love to hear em play Tennessee Ernies' country junction! Yeehaw
yeah Kenny is great ...1st seen him with Lucinda,,,then on marty stuart tv show..
For sure he is!
Great interview. Sadly enough Tommy did not make it to be a household name back then....like Hendrix, Clapton Page did for example. In fact even for me, I would not have known who he was if it wasn't for his "Private Eye's" album- which remains one of my favorite albums to this day. I always knew someone replaced R. Blackmore in Deep Purple and I knew someone replaced Joe Walsh in the James Gang. I just did not know who that someone was until I heard Private Eye's that made me sit up and pay attention. Love Kenny and Marty.
Thank you for listening @tefenstrat! 🎉🔥😇
If you can find footage of Kenny with Greg Garing--those two were amazing together.
Man it would be cool if you can,get Al Dimeola..that Paco story is great one of my favorite all time players..thanks for this interview
You're welcome Don thanks for listening and glad you enjoyed it, Happy Holidays man
I've seen Kenny twice with Marty Stuart and the Fabulous Superlatives. Once acoustic, the other electric. And they lived up to their name. Though not my kind of music, I must say that those performances, particularly the acoustic one, were stunningly good.
I love that Kenny is such a fan across such a wide base of styles. And he is quite right about 'Paperback Writer' moving the needle of pop music; it was rock. And 'Revolver' was a game-changer in that upon first hearing so many of us were at a loss for words. Some of its tunes were so strange yet so compelling; a few listens were required just to come to grips with the radical leap in progress the band had made (i.e., it was the start of progressive rock). In that sense it was a precursor to Hendrix's 'Are You Experienced', which was the next WTF moment. (Cream pre-dated Hendrix, but while their single 'I Feel Free' was a fantastic introduction and the Bruce/Brown songwriting was exceptionally good, their albums lacked the explosiveness and uniqueness of Hendrix's.)
Also great that Kenny's sonic aesthetic stays true to authenticity, with Gibson and Fender guitars and vintage brands and models of amps. In this age of boutique gears and banks of pedals, he, like his hero Jeff Beck, keeps things 'real'.
A very enjoyable interview. Many thanks to both of you.
Very cool, thanks for sharing, MrCherryJuice...and thank you for listening! 🙌🏻 💥 🎉

Great interview! Thanks!
Jed, hey man glad you liked it and thanks for listening! CG
Heard as a kid he was a big fan of Howdy Doody.
Great interview. I've seen Kenny with Marty about a dozen times. Kenny and Dick Dale are my 2 favorite living guitar players. Kenny also met and saw Roy Buchanan. He talks about seeing Roy's amp and all the controls were wide open. He said Roy just used the controls on the guitar. Another influence on Kenny was the Colorado based surf band "The Astronauts".
McGuinn and Hillman are doing a 50 year anniversary tour of "Sweetheart of the Rodeo" and Marty & the Superlative are the band. Once in a lifetime show,already got my ticket.
If you EVER get a chance to interview Unknown Hinson he is AWESOME!!!
Hey, thanks for your message JohnLee, and really glad you enjoyed the interview. Sounds like you have this genre totally covered. Have a great week, and thanks for listening! CG
Unknown Hinson IS AWESOME !!!
L
LOVED THEIR SONG BAJA
1:28 beginning.
🎙️🏆
Right on @peppers776, thanks for listening! 🎸💥🙌🏻
Carol Kaye played on the Door's first album.
Not surprised at all!
Is Kenny related to the srv,and Jimmy?
No... Thank you for listening @fowlerperry8063! 🎉🔥😇
Cliff Goodwin he's from Worcester MA too. Yoh Kenny, Beware of MArty's Bus! (Buzz?) hah!
Had Cliff Goodwin on the show a while back - good guy. Thanks for listening Doug!
Uncle Kenny
wish HE AND CHRIS WOULD WRITE A BOOK
some how KV's retort that his father was in fact a "good dude" makes me feel ok about being a member of the human race .
I don't understand the interviewer's obsession with the shows Vaughan went to in the 70's.
And about happiness, you are wrong! I used to say but then heard the Dalai Lama say it better: "Your happiness in life is dependent entirely on the community". Think about that and think it through...
No
didn't now Scruggs was the guitar man....
What’s with all these commercials???
Commercials allow this podcast to exist and put out 200+ episodes a year :-)
Turn down the bass friend.
I just never seen the " Greatness " in the Beatles. Sure there are about 10 of their songs that are a good listen but that Sgt Pepper Album was a real Joke.
kenny sets the bar
