"He's been with Steely Dan..." Oh, so he's THAT good! Thank you for these wonderful interviews. Really makes me happy to listen to musicians, to hear from the people who create so much of the music in our lives.
Joe, you never fail to deliver a great interview. This was excellent. Great job, brother. And yeah, “She’s Leaving Home” is a magic piece of music. Makes me cry every time.
Entertaining and informative! I actually was introduced to Will's playing from listening to Spyro Gyra . And I was a fan of the Worlds Most Dangerous Band ! Never knew the huge catalog that Will played in! Great interview!
DM… You’re killing me!!!! I wish I could have a Dinglewood Scramble Dog!!! It’s been years. Since my Mother and Father passed away in 2004. Well enjoy one…. No… two double weeny scramble dogs and think of me. Best, Joe
monmixer, my dad Joe would have really appreciated your extremely kind words. He was happy to keep YT as is, but cool for us to continue in any way that uplifted the musician… so, it won’t be exactly like this, as it was unique to dad, but anything new we put out we hope will honor dad and the musician. Thank for you so much for your continued support of the channel. Hope you can visit the museum sometime too. Best, Britt
About ten or more years ago the Fab Faux was playing here in San Francisco one Sunday night at Yoshi's in San Francisco in 2013 . Unfortunately I was in the hospital . I got out about midnight ,and went straight to the club . I caught possibly three songs . The When they were packing up - Will had to be back in New York for Letterman on Monday . It was like 1:00 in the morning when Will, and I got into a half hour conversation. I told him I was one of the original members of Beatlemania back in 1977 but was fired after a month so I never performed with the band at the Wintergarden in New York. That was just getting my Beatles cred ... I was in pain, and Will was the nicest guy you could ever meet . We talked about all things great,and small . He was so humble . I regret I didn't catch the entire show . I couldn't begin to scratch the surface ,so I won't . Will deserves these accolades,and success . Ps. I asked him about the Letterman gig. He said it was the best gig you could ever imagine . Joe Chambers is the go to man in music , he knows it all ...
Hi Joe, I was about to comment on your recent interview on Will Lee. -I had the thought "Hmm.. I recall a story somewhere Will got the call and thought his brother was putting him on with a George Harrison imitation? I looked and here it is! That said, Joe you're skill at being courteous, informed, and overall a great interviewer person are only surpassed by the legion of amazing and talented musical people you and we love. Thanks to Will and thanks Joe for another terrific Musicians Hall of Fame video document..-doug
Jacquescousteau & rc6981, thank you both for your kind words & for your continued support of the channel… it would have meant so much to my dad,Joe, and does to me too. Hope y’all can visit the museum sometime. All the best, Britt
@rc6981 how sweet of you. Thank you for the encouragement… Dad was the most special soul & I feel blessed to do something that makes me feel close to him everyday. If you haven’t visited the museum, let me know when you do. Thanks again for the support, Britt
This reminded me of the time at Dollywood. It was a daytime show with John Anderson and the auditorium only had about 10 of us watching. He didn't act any different as if it were full. I liked playing in front of bigger crowds and I remember being scared to death when it was only a few. For a big name guy..Will seems so cool. Just wondering Joe. Have you thought about interviewing Carol Kay? She's getting up there in age. 👍🏻😎
I met Carol years ago. I wanted to include her in the museum as well as asking her to be inducted with the Wrecking Crew in 2007 when they were nominated and inducted but she didn’t seen interested. She certainly deserves to be recognized and I wish it could’ve worked out. Thanks again for watching..Joe
Hi Don…. I did do some questions from viewers back when Covid started in 2020. There were about 4 or 5 clips. They’re still up on our channel. There is a show called The Sessions on RUclips that I did a interview with and if you check out the NAMM interviews I did one for them. Thanks for asking .Joe
Hi Robert… sure I think Jim would be a good guest. There’s lot’s of people I would love to include if I had the opportunity and mainly if they are ever in Nashville. It’s difficult to do a interview other than here in the museum. Thanks for sharing your thoughts…Best, Joe
Hi Joe, I ran into Will at a show at The Bitter End last Friday night. He was playing with the Davide Pannozzo Trio.. along with Shawn Phelps... Oh man. I have followed Will as long as I can remember. Thank you for this great interview, as always, you do an amazing job of keeping the folks comfortable and relaxed. Will and I only got to chat for a few minutes after the show, but he is always the nicest guy in the room. And as he says, it's all about the music... Great job here Joe. Thank you. Happy Thanksgiving!
Peter, thank you for your kind words… would have meant so much to dad, who passed on September 28. Dad & Will were very close …we all think the world of Will, he is full of nonstop energy- it’s a joy to have him as a friend & a honor to have his exhibit at the MHOF. If you haven’t visited the museum, I hope you can sometime. Best, Britt
@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum Funny eh? I was just sitting here listening to the interview again.. Yeah, I live in Greenwich Village. right around the corner, basically, from The Blue Note and very close to The Bitter End. Will is a great guy. I don't know him personally, but we have chatted a couple of times. We both have mutual friends. When I get a chance, I will certainly be stopping in the MHoF! for sure. Thanks, Britt... Sorry about Joe's passing. I had spoken to him a couple of times over the years. A was sad to learn of his passing. Wow... such a great guy! I will look you up when I get down there.
Obviously you haven’t watched our channels both Backstage and Vault Series. You might check out Buddy Guy, Eddie Willis, Uriel Jones, Billy Cox, Earl Palmer, Paul Riser interviews. Our museum covers Motown, Stax, Muscle Shoals Philli, and Sun which was originally mostly R&B. We have Hendrix and BB King exhibits too. I think you know where you can shove your question. Sincerely, Joe
Great job Joe...you are such a intricate part of music history, thanks so much for your contribution.
What's not to love, Will is so talented, wow and with Paul and HIram, well the stuff legends are made of.
"He's been with Steely Dan..." Oh, so he's THAT good! Thank you for these wonderful interviews. Really makes me happy to listen to musicians, to hear from the people who create so much of the music in our lives.

@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum That's a shame, Carol's awesome.
Nice one, Joe!!
Love the interviews. When will Joe sit down for an interview and who would he like to be interviewed by?
Hi Don…. I did do some questions from viewers back when Covid started in 2020. There were about 4 or 5 clips. They’re still up on our channel. There is a show called The Sessions on RUclips that I did a interview with and if you check out the NAMM interviews I did one for them. Thanks for asking .Joe
Always learning on this channel, have you considered Black Oak Arkansas and perhaps interviewing Jim Dandy while he is still alive?
Hi Robert… sure I think Jim would be a good guest. There’s lot’s of people I would love to include if I had the opportunity and mainly if they are ever in Nashville. It’s difficult to do a interview other than here in the museum. Thanks for sharing your thoughts…Best, Joe

do you interview any non white musicians?
