mike is, and has been for decades, THE single most underrated guitarist in rock. absolutely impossible to imagine TPHB without him/his incredible guitar playing. Thanks Mike for more than 40years of music...and treasured memories.
Mike is really easy to listen to. Tremendous talent, great guitarist. Humble guy. Much respect for his willingness to discuss Tom as his good friend, lead man and band mate. If you are a Heartbreakers fan the music from the Fillmore is a must have.
Great interview, covering a lot of ground! It's so good to see Mike again and to know he's very busy and actively writing and producing! We love you Mike and thank you for all the musical treasure you've given us.
Fantastic. I can listen to Mike Campbell talk about whatever he wants to talk about for hours. Thank you Mike, you are just too cool and TPATH couldn't have been without you. Live at the Filmore is a must have as are the Dirty Knobs records. Looking forward to more. 🎩💔✌💪 🐊🐍🦊🦐
I was at two of the shows. Came up from L.A. Originally some were to take place in 1996, but Tom injured himself (broken arm if I recall correctly), and so they were all moved to 1997. By the way, it's some stretch to say Mike wrote "Jammin' Me" "for" Bob Dylan. Tom and Bob co-wrote it for Tom to record, and Mike changed some chords to improve it. But never was it written for Bob, and Mike's contributions in particular were after Bob had completed his contribution to the songwriting process. So that one is pretty much a lie.
