I have a very eclectic list: Pat Metheny, Jimi Hendrix, John McLaughlin, Jimi Page, Larry Carlton, Eric Johnson, Satch, Vai, Alex Lifeson, Andy Summers, Al Di Meola, Joni Mitchell, Prince, Steve Hacket, Steve Howe, Allan Holdsworth, I could go on and on...
So glad this started with the Kevin Gilbert mention. I was crazy about KG's music and the first time I saw him at Slims in San Fran Marc was on guitar. Marc was amazing! Thanks for this interview Warren!
Marc is the coolest dude around. Amazing guitarist, amazing voice, incredible songwriter...what's not to love? Wife and I will be seeing you in Norco in a week...can't wait!
Thank you for this one Warren! As a lifelong Keith Emerson fan I started watching the video out of interest, totally not expecting this invaluable lesson on musicianship and creativity.
This is the best funniest interview of all time, amazing stories and the audio clips are just amazing! I love Marc Bonilla, he is so funny- I get all of his humor! Miss Kevin so much, what another genius...
Don't recall if I've ever sat through a RUclips video that long. But it was worth every second. It was both educational and inspiring. Never gonna question where ideas come from again. Channeling it is!
I remember when Marc and Kevin hosted the Mark & Brian show. Brian used to come to some of my gigs back in the day. That Toy Matinee album was something special and Marc is a fantastic musician. Kevin Gilbert was a genius.
I start to listen to this interview casually, but the more I listened the more was I engrossed. Great stuff, fun and informative, thank you so much. Marc is awesome.
Been a fan of Marc for the last 10 years as it was when I first discovered him, what a great and insightful interview this was! Nice to hear his love and appreciation of gentle giant too, John “Pugwash” weathers is from my hometown and have met him on several occasions over the years.
I recently had the opportunity to chat with Marc for about 30 minutes and he is an incredibly humble guy, and a great storyteller. I wish our conversation could have gone on longer. Of course, as a musician and guitarist, he is absolutely outstanding. I just love him 🎸🎶❤️
Marc is a inspirational human i have followed since I have been exposed to him 1980's era. My favorite show piece to ones who strangely are not aware, is Fanfare For The Uncommon Man: The Official Keith Emerson Tribute Concert (Live) . Great Gates of Kiev . The best live recording of A list musicians performing immaculately performed and captured. Especially Marc's vocal. According to my diving, he had lost his voice the entire week building to the concert. And killed every tune he had sung lead or backup to. What an incredible Musician.
Never heard of Marc, but clicked on the video anyway because your videos are always so good. Sooooooooo glad I did!!! Only half way through and it is already AMAZING!!
Also, kudos to you! Some people need to be led. Some need to run free. It is a sign of a great interviewer to know the difference. And you're a great interviewer because you could feel that you should not interrupt him to ask questions about the details of what he was saying. 👍
Marc is one cool cat…so many interesting stories of working with Keith…such a great interview…thank you Warren! You continue to raise the bar on this type of content!
What a great video Warren! Easily one of my favourite interviews! As a guitarist playing the violin for some years now, and also composing and orchestrating, this explained to me a lot about stuff I never realised. The organic nature of an orchestra is indeed the most fundamental basic of it's sound.
What a character! Somehow I've never heard Mark play (or at least I never knew it was Mark), and definitely never heard him talk. You can tell that Keith loved him and vice versa, and I can see why.
While telling some amazing stories this dude gives a masterclass in defining flow state as a mental perspective….regardless of what you’re doing that could benefit from it….
Please, please, PLEASE do an episode on Kevin Gilbert. I'm sure Wayne and Nick (among many others, such as Marc) would love to share the love and spread awareness of one of the all-time greats.
When Marc Bonilla produced Glenn Hughes ‘Addiction’ albums,apparently he suggested to Glenn that he reign in his Soul-esque vocal inflections and sing the album more straight ahead. I was hoping that Marc would have mentioned those album sessions. Marc’s production talents really came through on ‘I Don’t Want To Live That Way Again’.
Please check out Kevin Gilbert’s work if you haven’t, particularly Toy Matinee, Giraffe, and his solo work (“The Shaming Of The True” is a conceptual masterpiece). To me, the Toy Matinee album is absolute perfection - writing, performance, production, mixing - each and every aspect is impeccable. And although Marc didn’t perform on the Toy Matinee album, in live performances to promote the album he and Kevin’s musicianship and vocals are so in sync that you’d assume they were twins or had played together for years and years.
Marc is a fountain of insight and inspiration! Amazing interview! Devin Townsend sayd similar things about channeling music that is always there and can be used (or not). Was that Mike Keneally on the left side on one of the photos from the radio show?
Wes Montgomery is my desert isle guy. This was one of your best Warren and Marc. I saw the Jeff Beck Blow by Blow tour in Boston in the mid seventies. 11 piece Mahavishnu Orch. opened. Narada MW on drums and Ralph Armstrong on bass. John was using a LP with mini humbucks and a 1 12 Mesa Boogie combo. JB had his black album cover LP with a Marshall head and a Fender 1 15 Showman cab. nard Purdie on drums and Max Middleton on keys. To be honest JM sounded like a bunch of angry bees compared to JBs much more Powerful tone and his economy of notes taught me the in Good Music Often LESS IS MORE!!!! Use Space as one of your SONIC WEAPONS!!!!! and I am a big JM fan as well. Saw him with Shakti open for the new Jaco Weather Report, also in Boston, and he really shined!!! Keep up the GREAT WORK!!!
Warren, I have been actually for quite a while wondering how come you still didn`t invite Glenn Hughes for an interview! Come on, what a phenomenon vocalist he is!
Al Pitrelli, Brian May, Nancy Wilson, The Edge, KK Downing, Johnny Cash, Bonnie Raitt, Robert Johnson, and many others but that gives you an idea of the variety of my tastes GREAT question...hadda THINK!! 😜
soooo i did a search on youtube for Star Trek The Lust Episode...cmon it sounded like a great!! way to kill 15 minutes but.... there were pages and pages of all kinds of STUFF!! regarding all the different series surrounding the show but i could not parse out the needed link damn frickin trekies!!! 😋😛😜🤪😝
Who are some of your favourite guitarists of all time?
chuck berry, Jimi Hendrix,Eric Clapton, Eddie Van Halen , Prince
I have a very eclectic list:
Pat Metheny, Jimi Hendrix, John McLaughlin, Jimi Page, Larry Carlton, Eric Johnson, Satch, Vai, Alex Lifeson, Andy Summers, Al Di Meola, Joni Mitchell, Prince, Steve Hacket, Steve Howe, Allan Holdsworth, I could go on and on...
I wanted to be Randy Rhodes more than life itself.
Mike Einziger from Incubus, you should interview them! 😃
Metheny, Jeff Beck, Eric Johnson
So glad this started with the Kevin Gilbert mention. I was crazy about KG's music and the first time I saw him at Slims in San Fran Marc was on guitar. Marc was amazing! Thanks for this interview Warren!
Thanks so much to you too!
Marc is the coolest dude around. Amazing guitarist, amazing voice, incredible songwriter...what's not to love? Wife and I will be seeing you in Norco in a week...can't wait!
Certainly a great guy!
Thank you for this one Warren! As a lifelong Keith Emerson fan I started watching the video out of interest, totally not expecting this invaluable lesson on musicianship and creativity.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love the Sundays Warren! That is soo cool you grew up with Patrick Hannan.
Yes, Patch is a great guy, very old friend!
Such a humble, down to earth guy. Always nice to people like us in high school even though he was BMOC and so popular Glad to see his success
This is the best funniest interview of all time, amazing stories and the audio clips are just amazing! I love Marc Bonilla, he is so funny- I get all of his humor! Miss Kevin so much, what another genius...
Hey Warren, you should use the outro music for your channel- that was a fantastic jam with you and Marc! So Talented
Don't recall if I've ever sat through a RUclips video that long. But it was worth every second. It was both educational and inspiring. Never gonna question where ideas come from again. Channeling it is!
Thanks ever so much Michael!

Bonilla....great musician and ...as I hear...great in expressing concepts and in telling stories...
Many thanks!
What an entertaining interview!! Absolutely loved it! Star Trek Lust episode would've been enough, but man, the stories & the PLAYING!!!!!
What an absolute blast gift this interview was. His vibe is hilarious. Love his radio idea and the star trek episode.
Thanks, Lee

Thank you for doing this Warren. You need to make the Kevin Gilbert video. More people need to know about him.
Thanks ever so much Mike!

Marc absolutely awesome. I wanna jam
You should!
Great episode …yes please do a Kevin Gilbert episode!!!!
Marvellous idea

Great intelligent interview! Thoroughly enjoyed it. Would be great to have a feature video on ELP and Gentle Giant.
I love stories about Kevin Gilbert - what a genius. Gone way too soon.
Yes, huge talent, big fan!
While telling some amazing stories this dude gives a masterclass in defining flow state as a mental perspective….regardless of what you’re doing that could benefit from it….
Yes, incredible
Amazing stories!!! Love his vibe!
Absolutely! Thanks for watching
Great interview - I remember being blown away hearing EE Ticket when it first came out
Thanks ever so much Brent
Please, please, PLEASE do an episode on Kevin Gilbert. I'm sure Wayne and Nick (among many others, such as Marc) would love to share the love and spread awareness of one of the all-time greats.
Marc is a semi hidden gem, I’m ALWAYS impressed
Definitely a meeting of the minds
Captain Kirk’s Chair. What a great slice of the story. Keith Emerson was at a genius level for his era. Fun interview.
Great interview and what a great guy Marc is 🤩👍🎵🎸🐕I will search out some of his music 🤟
Marvellous! Yes, great guy
Badass, cant believe he just picked up his guitar and played that!
Right! He was wonderful!
Listened to Focus 3 last week. Saw Marc with Danny Seraphine at Yoshi's a week ago.
Marvellous!

I was hoping that Marc would have mentioned those album sessions. Marc’s production talents really came through on ‘I Don’t Want To Live That Way Again’.
Focus 3 shirt! Love it
Would love/can’t wait to hear the ASIA tour come to fruition at some point.
Please check out Kevin Gilbert’s work if you haven’t, particularly Toy Matinee, Giraffe, and his solo work (“The Shaming Of The True” is a conceptual masterpiece).

25:10 Jurgen Fritz of Triumvirat replicated the Keith Emerson organ sound pretty well IMO. ;p
Thanks ever so much for sharing
Great interview. KE is my hero, love Giant and Kevin was a genius. Would be great for. Kevin Gilbert show.
Absolutely! Stay tuned
@@Producelikeapro cool 👍🏻
🐐
Indeed!
Some great stories here.

He was great playing with Gamma at the Ronnie Montrose tribute concert.
I'm gonna watch this later.... But I hope Kevin Gilbert comes up in the interview!!
LOL. It starts with Kevin Gilbert!
@@allpdmusic .. Sweet!!!🤘
Marc's work on Glenn Hughes Adiction album is remarkable.
Warren, I have been actually for quite a while wondering how come you still didn`t invite Glenn Hughes for an interview! Come on, what a phenomenon vocalist he is!
I'd love to see you interview Eddy Offord.
