In this episode of Riffs & Rhythms, Paul Robertson and Kevin McLoughlin welcome back guitarist Ed Berios for a conversation about the music that shaped his career.

From growing up in Brooklyn surrounded by R&B to discovering the British Invasion, Ed shares stories about the legendary artists who influenced his playing — including Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, Leslie West, and more.

The conversation also explores touring experiences in the UK, the difference between American and European audiences, and why emotional expression often matters more than technical speed when playing guitar.

It’s a classic musicians-talking-music episode full of stories, laughs, and deep appreciation for the artists who shaped rock and blues.
