Thanks for the plug, homie! Kids gotta learn about THE HUFF!!!!
As a kid, before ever dreaming of playing guitar, I was in love the sound of these epic solos I would hear on albums by Steven Curtis Chapman and Michael W. Smith... little did I know back then that it was one of the greatest session players of all time.
I LOVE that wide stereo tri-chorus 80's refrigerator rack sound !!!
Want an H3000, Dytronics cs5, Lexicon PCM 42 & 70, ect... so bad.
I became a Dann Huff fan in the early 80's when he was in a band called White Heart . His talent is ridiculous !!! Dann and EVH were the ones who drove me to not put my guitar down when i first started . Love to see him getting the love . Thanks Andy for the episode .
The first two Giant albums are amazing. One of my faves of all time. Just a shame those came through a bit late as the music scene was changing!
The third one is great too, I think.
I first purchased the first Giant cassette just based on I’ll see you in my dreams. He always reminded me of a more technical Neal Schon. LOVE some Dan Huff. Honestly imo Keith urban wouldn’t have been as big without him.
Dann’s vocals on the Giant albums are incredible. Great singer too.
Dann Huff just rules... Time to Burn is one of my favorite albums. The song Chained was simply amazing.
Yeah man!!! This was great Andy!!
I would LOVE to see a breakdown of Dann's Free Bird solo. I remember receiving Skynyrd Frynds as a gift back in 94 and searched for years to find out who played it.
What a great ‘meeting Dan Huff story’ Andy. I’ve been a massive Dan Huff fan since the 80’s, I would hear great guitar playing on various band and artists albums and invariably it was Dan’s name in the credits. The seminal moment for me was hearing Dan’s solo on the Rick Springfield song ‘one Reason (to believe)’. IMO it’s one of the greatest solo’s of all time, it’s a short solo but it blew my mind! For anyone who hasn’t heard it check it out on Rick’s ‘Rock of Life’ album. There’s a 30 minute video of ‘Giant live in London’ on you tube, Dan’s playing and singing is amazing.
That’s an AWESOME story!!! I’m a huge Giant fan and never knew he was a producer till a couple years ago... not only a monster player but dude can sing too \m/ thanks for the story Andy!!!
Andy and Ben Eller have become my favorite guitarists. So what Dan Huff is to Andy, these two are to me. Ashamedly I live local to them and haven't met either one of them, but if I do, I think I'll legitimately be star struck, which is odd to me because I wasn't star struck when I met Joe Satriani or Eric Johnson.
Awwww shucks! Thanks man!!!
I love this series, giving us new artists and music to listen to
Dang, and I brought alcohol. #Disappointed. But I found Dann Huffs instructional video on youtube about the recording studio - probably antiquated if that was pre Pro Tools but still worth the time.
man...I never realized how many of my childhood air guitar solos were the HUFF....now I need to deep dive Huffs solos
Hi Andy,,, just looked up and watched Dan Huffs,,, Time to burn and I'll see you in my dreams,,I remember watching the videos in the 80s,,such inspiration on guitar and song writing,,,great job Andy on Dan Huff ,,,cool stories to,, But Andy you are A Great inspiration to me also,, Junk Town,,, really inspired one of my new country rock tunes recording it today,, thanks Dude,,,I will be moving to Tennessee would be awesome to see you play,, ,RJ.Bacha - GOD BLESS.
Dann is THE man! Grew up loving Giant, and I never hesitate to check out any album he's produced or played on.
I love your passion and enthusiasm. It's brilliant viewing.
Matthew Ward record, Armed and Dangerous. Dann plays all the guitars on it. Amazing record.
For those Dann Huff Fans that have not yet discovered his work with Mark Spiro check out „Don‘t leave me in love“ from the Album „Devotion“. The signature Dann Huff Chorus guitar sound is huge on that track, great intro that continues/repeats in the verse supporting Mark Spiro‘s unique vocal style. Later on it was recorded on Giant lll, but the version on Spiro‘s Devotion is the one i prefer
awesome story...so funny about sneaking in....10/10 !!
Check Dann's solo on Kenny Loggins' "Meet Me Halfway" - epic 80s solo!
I didn't know that was Dan that's awesome! Over The Top
Little known fact, he also played Danger Zone😉
Scholz Rockman in full effect on that one.
hey Andy your my new dann huff love your playing danns playing is a big influance on mine his decending slides and double stop work is awesome then goes into a flurry of runs then backs off hes awesome player cheers Andy from australia!!
Cool story Andy! Thanks for sharing. I love your enthusiasm and passion for music! Love your channel.👏👏
I loved those Giant albums! My favorite was Last of the Runways. Dan blew me away. He’s a great rhythm player too.
I love Dann Huff............he knew when to use speed! Although he had a bad habit of shredding as the track was fading out and I would rush to turn up the volume .
IIRC, Dan Huff also played on another Whitesnake cut, but it was only released in a movie and on the 30th anniversary release of the '87 album. It was a remake of "Standing in the Shadows." Coverdale had a real fascination of redoing older Whitesnake tunes LOL! I don't know if that remake was credited as Whitesnake or Coverdale, but it was another remake.
Nicholas Totoro is this legit? If so, great find - just listened to the song and it definitely sounds like him!!
Michael Costello
I’m pretty sure. Wished I could find it or maybe it was a video I saw with Coverdale talking about it. I know Keith Olsen tried to downplay John Sykes’ influence on the album, for whatever reason, but I’d pay good money that Dann Huff played on the remake of “Standing in the Shadows.”
Holy cow. Dann is my all time favorite and was easily the biggest influence on my playing, but I've never heard Wynona's Freebird. I just listened to it and that is wild! Dann normally doesn't get that crazy on other people's stuff. Amazing, as usual.
Lonestar, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, John Anderson, Blackhawk...and I could keep going😉 Dann has been my guy since the 80's while everyone else was on EVH. Giant Last of the Runaways album is phenomenal. I have met Dann a number of times and he is a players guy... Very genuine and gracious. Last time I saw him was at the Ryman at the Toto show in 2017. Jay DiMarcus actually took a pic of me and Dann with my phone. He was there to see Lukather, who he credited for helping him get in to sessions in LA. Andy, your stock just went up in my book for talking Huff... Not bad for a TN boy😉
Into looks like a Whiskey ad 😉 need to see my bar cave asap 😎
Also, no shame: I really enjoy the SheDaisy christmas album. GET SOME!
What a great guitar player man! That mandolin style riff in the intro and solo guitar part afterwards in the beginning are great. Keep up the great work Andy!
Dann is my all time hero too! Such a complete musician with a brilliant career. I just came across a bunch of isolated guitar tracks from the 80’s with Dann Huff doing his magic on some hit records and the guy is a genius... I’m going nuts trying to replicate his trademark trichorus shimmering clean tones from the 80s on my fractal. I would mention his solo on Warren Hill’s “tell me all your secrets” where Dann just kill it with his melodic soulful playing on a jazzy progression.
Are those isolated guitars tracks from 'Dann Huff - SOLOS'?
Listen to Dann on ‘To Be Forgotten’ on the rare Players album.
Check out Dann’s playing on Matthew Ward’s Armed and Dangerous from 1986
Great story
cool i remember him in Giant, Amy Grant, and lots of 90s stuff.
Dann played on several John Anderson records. Great guitar work….check them out. Blackhawk records were good too
Great stuff!! Time to burn was awesome
Love these series. Thanks Andy
And he has an amazing voice. Nobody said life was fair
Amazing as usual Andy but I was hoping that maybe you could just do a cover/break down for : time to burn since noone seems to have Dans chops right on the internet ...would be great to see how its actually done by someone that CAN do it ..thanks in advance if you ever decide to do it ...lots of love from Greece
Dann Huff = Awesomeness! I think Luke even cited Dann and other like him for the reason that got out of being a session guy.
awesome video. thanks andy ;O)
My favorite Dann Huff solo is on " Meet me Half Way" by Kenny Loggins....Check it out !!!!!
Dan Huff is so underrated! Will kill most of your 80s guitar hero’s! I still listen to both my Giant albums all the time! Thunder and lightning is Epic! 🏆🔥🎸❤️🏆
That Little Walter video is just an M9 into a small combo ;)
So funny, where I am from DH was only known as a christian guitar player, along with Tony Palacios and Rex Carroll hehe
I loved him on Faith Hill’s When the lights go down record. I think he produced a Megadeth record
Still got the pickguard?
Isn’t it Ry Cooder dueling Vai in Crossroads?
I think it was Arlen Roth
Anyone know if Dan did the solo on Rascal Flatt's Life is a Highway song? That is some of the best tone I've heard.
That’s Joe Don. But Dann produced the track, and certainly had input and influence on the guitar tone.
Corey Heldt that’s Joe Don.
I think he did some Hunter Hayes stuff as well, in a world we're gonna live in soon that doesn't have Rascal Flatts, I think Hayes has some of that same feel and style.
Check out his playing on Martina McBride's 2 More Bottles Of Wine off her Wild Angles record. ruclips.net/video/nZBSGurbi0w/видео.html about two minutes in, he flat out shreds ever so tastefully.
🤚
Dan Huff....guilty of planting the seed of GAS in a young Andy.
Andy! What's the name of the Rascal Flatts tune where Dann plays that great solo you mentioned?
Rik D while you loved me
@@andywoodmusic Thanks Andy! Great episode by the way. Love Dann Huff.
John Sykes on here I come again ?
