This is a clip from the "Mike Campbell - The Guitars" documentary which has been available on the internet on and off for a few years.
I can never find it when I want to watch, so I thought I'd at least post this clip I have for others in the same position.

Wow, to hear such an accomplished guitarist speak with the respect and reverence that Mike does for George is very special. The emotion that he feels for George’s guitar solo is now probably further amplified by the loss of Tom Petty. Having all of those legendary musicians in the Travelling Wilburys was like catching lightning in a bottle.

@jimlutz8092 3 года назад

That was a well-spent 5 minutes with Mike. Love how he would be intimidated, as we all would, by George, but also how Mike coaxed George into developing the slide solo himself.

I love to hear a terrific player who is humble and not beating his own drum, so to speak. Good job, Mike. Your generosity resulted in beautiful slide play from George.

@macjig5148 3 года назад

Beautifully honest. That's what makes the heartbreakers so compelling. They are like regular guys that you could sit down with and have a burger/beer and not feel intimidated. Mike, your guitar sound is all your own. The American Girl riff will forever go down as one of the best and most memorable riffs of all time.

The first time i finally learned to play My Sweet Lord it actually made me cry. George was so spiritual and you can feel it when you play his music. Keep up the good work Mike. I love all you guys in the Heartbreakers and The Dirty Knobs are fantastic. Thank God for a break from all the crappy music out there nowdays. Love you guys and keep truckin.

How can you NOT like Mike Campbell..he’s simply one of kind!! I’ve learned so much from his playing..most important lesson was “Trust your own style, and build on it in a way to make it your own”!! Right on!!

@fretboardmaster70 2 года назад

Something saddens me when I watch such humble souls talk about their stories. In 10 Years, most of our great musicians will have passed on and my question is who will be left of this caliber to carry the can?

I get it Mr. Campbell. Sometimes I get overwhelmed by how blessed I've been. I remember once I was in Kansas City with friends and here comes Mike Campbell walking through the building. I was slack jawed and thinking "Here's my chance!", right? But I couldn't think of what to say to a Rock and Roll god, so I just kept going, LOL. But we made eye contact!

@garycogswell5499 Год назад

Hi Mike, I'm glad you met George. To me, your description allows us all to meet him, taking us inside the soul of the man/musician. Now look at you Mike, also a hero to music lovers like me.

@rdmkeytohwy 4 года назад

Interesting observation about George's slide playing being melodic instead of raw gutbucket blues slide. I love those sounds, too but George was always about the melody. You can hum most of what he plays on guitar. A true artist and songwriter that we dearly miss. He was a good soul and so are you Mike. As far as lead playing i think your work with the Heartbreakers is some of the best guitar playing on record, period! Love your playing and musical sensibility!

@gpah58 3 года назад

Listen to George’s solo on “Bluest Blues” by Alvin Lee. He plays the fist slide solo and it completely matches what you said. Might be my favorite Harrison solo.

@alohamark3025 3 года назад

Mike is underappreciated by the masses. But that's due to how much the record industry has sunk in the past two decades. These documentary videos are very important for future generations who have never heard Tom Petty and his lead guitarist (Campbell) play live.

George was a fantastic slide player , my favourite. Mike Campbell is a hero of mine , not just because of his guitar playing , beautiful guy all round

@ia5662 3 года назад

I love Mike's observations on George's slide playing, Mike definitely took that into his own playing - just listen to the Learning To Fly solo. Absolutely soars like the title implies! I think The Edge and Daniel Lanois really brought that melodic slide playing further into the rock scene as well. I think it adds such a dynamic element for the right song. I'd be remiss to not mention Duane Allman's melodic slide masterpieces as well...

@FakingANerve 2 года назад

I couldn't agree more. Mike looked up to George and as they became friends, George kind of rubbed off on him. When T-Bone Burnett produced The Wallflowers album "Bringing Down the Horse," he sent an early mix of 6th Avenue Heartache to Mike and asked him to add a lead guitar track. Mike didn't know his home studio slide guitar recording made it into the final mix until he heard the song on the radio. Soon after, he said that George called him up and said "I heard you played on this... I didn't know you were doing me now!" 😄
