Does Paul Franklin even need an introduction? If you don’t know who this guy is, you don’t know steel guitar! Never fear – all will be revealed in the interview itself. Paul was such a lovely interview subject…he’s got a lot of great ideas and a lot to say, and his true love of steel guitar shines through everything he does. If you’d like more details on Paul, Wikipedia is a good place to start. His Allmusic bio has some other details.

Some of the many topics covered include:

Robert Plant, Alison Krauss – Gone Gone Gone

Franklin Pedabro

Little Walter Tube Amps

Steel Dream (Benado Effects)
