In a recent interview with Guitar Interactive Magazine, Paul Reed Smith opened up about his unexpected connection to Eddie Van Halen. “I made the 5150 pickup. I made the 5150 guitar. I'm the one who bolted it together and got it working at Kramer,” Smith revealed, recalling his hands-on role in shaping one of rock's most iconic guitars. Although a signature PRS model for Eddie never materialized, Smith did craft a custom guitar for him years later. The collaboration nearly happened—an “almost” that has since become part of guitar legend. “I did make one for him… He was a sweetheart. He was so nice to me,” Smith said. “It just wasn't meant to be.” We dive into a recent Guitar Interactive Magazine interview where Paul Reed Smith claims he built the Kramer 5150 pickup and the guitar itself!

HEAVY Music Interviews
Detonating The (Cherry) Bomb With CHERIE CURRIE

Music up until the 1970s had been a predominantly male-dominated industry, especially the rock scene, which was considered to be full of exactly the type of people your mother warned you about.Sure, there were some brilliant artists, including Janis Joplin, Marianne Faithfull and Suzi Quatro, but it was in the mid 70s when three young, brash and rebellious aspiring musicians called Joan Jett, Sandy West and Micki Steele were assembled by record producer Kim Fowley that the musical landscape changed forever. After the loss of Steele early in the piece, the new all-girl group called The Runaways welcomed Peggy Foster on bass and guitarist Lita Ford, before discovering a 15-year-old Cherie Currie who completed the final piece of the puzzle as vocalist.The rest, as they say, is history, and if by chance you are drawing a blank from the name The Runaways, then think about a song called Cherry Bomb, and things will become clearer.The release of their debut self-titled album in 1976 saw The Runaways support the likes of Cheap Trick, Van Halen, Talking Heads, and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, in the process giving voice and purpose, and more importantly, musical respect, to aspiring female musicians around the world. But it was teenage frontwoman Cherie Currie and her youthful defiance that captured the hearts as well as the ears of a growing global rebellion. She became the face of rock and the inspiration for hope and change. In short, she became a legend; a national treasure and someone who young girls wanted to grow up to be.After disbanding two years later, each member of The Runaways went on to greater success but did so without ever touring Australia. Currie rectified that blight with her debut tour in 2016, but she returns in September this year as part of her worldwide farewell tour, determined to leave one final musical impression on this side of the world.Cherie Currie's Final Australian Tour is the ultimate celebration of a rock legend who defined an era and inspired countless fans and would-be musicians around the globe. Whilst The Runaways never made it to Australia, we have been lucky enough to witness their iconic vocalist not only once, but now twice, with a chance to say goodbye.Currie joined HEAVY earlier this week to talk about the tour and the enduring legacy that is The Runaways."I've been looking forward to this for months now," she enthused. "When I was in Australia in 2016, it was a completely different band, and the reason I'm so excited about this one is my son's band is going to be backing me. His band is called Maudlin Strangers, but Jake is taking the drums this time. He's a front guy and an amazing singer and guitar player. But Sandy West, god rest her soul, gave him some lessons when he was just a kid, and he is paying such homage to Sandy West. He plays it just like her, and when I turn around, and I get to work with my son on stage, it just feels like I've got Sandy with me. It's just fantastic, and this band is off the charts."Currie is partway through the farewell tour, aiming to say goodbye to as many fans as she can. While it is undeniably an emotional time for the fans, having to say goodbye, Currie has to go through it every time she goes on stage. So far she has completed last tours through Europe and the UK, and we point out must be a difficult thing for her to do night after night."It is," she sighed genuinely. "It does hurt. It is painful because I still see people that I've seen at other shows and other tours I've done in the UK and Europe. I them and I see their faces. I recognize them, and it is a little tearful. It really is, because I thank them so much for all this support."In the full interview, Cherie spoke about the setlist, which will feature a mix of The Runaways hits, solo favourites, and new songs from her latest album, Boulevards of Splendor. She reflected on her nearly 50-year career, the emotional challenge of saying goodbye to fans, and the significance of connecting with her audience.Cherie recounted her early days with The Runaways, the pressures of the music industry, and the influence of Suzi Quatro. We talked about performing songs that were written at a different time of her life and how she maintains a connection with them, the national support act Hot Machine, the musical climate that gave birth to The Runaways and if they realized how much influence they would have on the music scene.Cherie went deeper into the early days of The Runaways and how various people tried to change or mould the band, the reasons they stuck to their guns, walking into the offices of EMI Records and demanding to be seen, how being in The Runaways impacted her life and career, plus more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

“Careful back there…”   Generally speaking, an artist's DEBUT ALBUM will often be quite good, while their SOPHOMORE ALBUM, in contrast, will often be far more advanced, sophisticated, and light years better than the first, in terms of song writing and overall production. While this is more often than not the rule, there are some notable exceptions.   As with asking a parent with 2 kids “which one do you love more?”, sometimes the answer is obvious, and other times it's “not even close”. And in the instances where dissenting opinions clashed, the resulting debate may have impacted the feelings of others “forevermore”.   It's time to “go get your mom” and bear witness to some “Gonz Bozonders” as we discuss the blockbuster movie magic behind “Shark Week” and prepare to “show no Morrissey” with regard to “butt scissoring” when you JOIN US as we try to determine whether various metal artist's second albums are BETTER OR WORSE than their first.   Visit www.metalnerdery.com/podcast for more on this episode Help Support Metal Nerdery https://www.patreon.com/metalnerderypodcast Leave us a Voicemail to be played on a future episode: 980-666-8182 Metal Nerdery Tees and Hoodies – metalnerdery.com/merch and kindly leave us a review and/or rating on your favorite Podcast app Follow us on the Socials: Facebook - Instagram - TikTok Email: metalnerdery@gmail.com Can't be LOUD Enough Playlist on Spotify Metal Nerdery Munchies on YouTube @metalnerderypodcast   Show Notes: (00:01): “23 lbs down, son…”/ “That's a heart healthy #origami diet…”/ #semiglutide / “Every time I come, you're like ‘that's fine'…” / ***WARNING: #listenerdiscretionisadvised *** / #RussellsTwanglifiedVocals / ***WELCOME BACK TO THE METAL NERDERY FENG SHUI UNDERGROUND BUNKERPOON PODCAST!!!*** / “I'm getting feng shui'd with my Wang Chung…”/ #thisepisodesbeeroftheepisode / #ObiOneCanObi / “Oh it smells like green pee…”/ “The cover model on the upstairs magazine…”/ #starcrunch / #uhhhhkay   (06:00): ***PATREON SHOUT OUT!!!*** / ***COME AND JOIN US ON THE PATREON AT patreon.com/metalnerderypodcast *** / “It's like two dudes butthole fucking each other…”/ #buttscissoring / ***EMAIL US AT metalnerdery@gmail.com and VOICEMAIL US AT 980-666-8182!!!*** / “It'll probably be out before this episode…the LAST episode…”/ “Don't choke on those nuts, bro…”/ “I'm fuckin' trippin' balls…”/ “You might wanna swallow first…”   (10:30): #RussellsReflectionsMovieEdition #Jaws / “That's not Snowflake…”/ #sharkweek / “Every month is shark week for women…”/ “Oh, you mean like the #moonlanding…”/ “BTW, who owned #MarthasVinyard?”/ “Without men, women would never be mothers…”/ #Duel #StevenSpielberg / #BJAndTheBear #EveryWhichWayButLoose #AnyWhichWayYouCan / “I'm telling you…go get your mom…” / “These guys are assholes…”/ #spoiler / “So anyway, that was Steven Spielberg's first attempt…”/ “So it's like #TheShining vs The Shining…”/ “That was his 4th movie (Jaws)…”/ “Sorry, had a couple of beers…(too many)”/ #swallowit / “I know this sounds weird, but…”/ #GonzBozonders / “I might have felt a little weird down there…”   (23:23): “I forget what we're doing…/ #TheDocket / METAL NERDERY PODCAST PRESENTS:  2ND ALBUMS THAT ARE BETTER (OR WORSE) THAN THE DEBUT ALBUMS / “They're not all gonna be equal…is it better or is it worse?” / “Okay, I'm gonna make this real easy to start…”/ “What?” / Hell Awaits vs Show No Mercy / “How about Shout At The Devil vs Too Fast For Love?” / “I am so lost…exactly…”   (29:43): “Kreator…how about Kreator?” / “Violent…what is it?” / “It's not that different…it's not as memorable…”/ “Put on your 1983 hat…Ride The Lightning (was not even out yet) …”/ “I was gonna say DirtBox…”/ Black Sabbath vs Paranoid / “If we're doing a #DeathMatch…”/ Van Halen or Van Halen II? / “This is effectively a Death Match between first and second albums…”/ #VanHalen YOU'RE NO GOOD (Van Halen II – 1979) / “Maybe Kerry King played bass on all the Van Halen albums…”   (38:28): “I do wanna go back to the #Slayer thing…”/ #titillation / “You like Show No Morrissey…”/ “Progressive?

On this episode of Exclusively Van Halen, we share Jas Obrecht's world debut of one of Edward Van Halen's happiest, most memorable interviews. On that special morning — May 20, 1991 — Edward was on top of the world. He was celebrating the birth of his son, Wolfgang… his relationship with Valerie was strong… and he had just finished mixing For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge, Van Halen's first album in three years. The interview took place in the control room of Edward's expansive 5150 home studio. The console was a perfect snapshot of his world — cigarettes, tools, bottlecaps, a bowl of guitar slides, and Motley Crüe and Led Zeppelin CDs scattered around. “Before we do the interview,” Edward said, “I want you to hear the new album.” He cued up an advance CD of For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge, showed Jas the volume slider, and with a grin, said, “Hope ya like it,” before walking out the door. When the album finished, Edward returned, flipped a switch, and lit up two massive rooms behind the control room window — one filled with his guitars and amps, the other with Alex's drum setup. Right then, Jas and Edward launched into the wide-ranging interview you're about to hear. https://youtu.be/pG7e5crFnpE?si=R8MfBwPC_X8JNMQL Listening back after 34 years, Jas was struck by how joyful, relaxed, and full of life Edward sounded. This is the Edward Jas will always remember — and now you'll get to hear him that way too. The black-and-white photo of Edward is by Jon Sievert. Portions of this interview appeared in Guitar Player magazine's August 1991 issue.

By the mid-90s, Van Ha,len was in crisis mode; while seemingly  still a successful band, ruptures between guitarist Eddie Van Halen and vocalist Sammy Hagar forced Hagar's departure from the band in 1996.  What followed were 24 years filled with chaos, egos, drugs, booze, and periods where Van Halen lay fallow for years at a time.Alex Alt (Slydog Music Cast) and me will explore the period 1996-2020, during which time Van Halen went through four singers (one of which you may never have heard of), yet only produced two studio albums, one of which remains a controversial and divisive one among fans to this day.We explore the good, the bad, the ugly and the...whatever, as Van Halen went from being a legendary band, to being rock's greatest soap opera; hence the reason why this episode is entitled "As Van Halen Turns."  Check it out!

Greg Koch welcomes YouTube guitar sensation and touring musician Ben Eller (Uncle Ben) to the Gristle fire for a conversation that meanders from lighthearted Waffle House tales to profound insights about musical authenticity.Ben shares how his guitar journey and popular YouTube channel were born from simple boredom - first as a homeschooled kid with time to kill, later as a guitar teacher with creative energy to burn. His candid "This is Why You Suck at Guitar" series emerged from the thoughts he couldn't express to frustrating students who never practiced. That unfiltered honesty resonated with viewers, launching an Internet teaching career that complements his diverse performing life.The conversation takes a fascinating turn when they explore how our earliest musical influences create the foundation for our tastes. From Ben's childhood memories of Van Halen's "Eruption" to Greg's transformative experience with Hendrix's "Electric Ladyland," they agree that understanding "where your clock starts" is essential to respecting diverse musical perspectives.Perhaps most compelling is their mutual admiration for guitarists who communicate mastery without technical flash. "The hardest thing in the world," Ben notes, "is proving you're a supreme sorcerer without even breaching 16th notes" - a pointed commentary on today's "Instagram shred post era" where technical fireworks often overshadow musical substance.Ben offers golden wisdom for creators navigating online criticism: "Don't take criticism from someone you wouldn't take advice from." His ability to maintain positivity while acknowledging the gifts and challenges of internet fame reveals why his teaching connects so deeply.The episode concludes with Ben sharing exciting upcoming projects, including a riff-focused solo album, potential metal ventures inspired by his recent stint with Mastodon, and comprehensive instructional courses revealing his "hidden Guitar Illuminati wisdom." Ready to chew some genuine musical gristle with two authentic guitar voices? This conversation delivers wisdom, laughs, and inspiration in equal measure.
