I had a copper-colored Harmony [H44 Stratotone]. That was my first electric, and in that band, the guy playing lead guitar was Pete Traynor, who makes Traynor amplifiers. He taught me a lot, and his brother, Steve, also played in the band. It was a little bit before people had basses, so he would play a low boogie part, to be kind of equivalent to what a bass was. In the beginning, it was hard to find electric-bass players.

Steve Tyndall, CEO and Founder of ClientSense, who previously led the IT function for Australian professional servicesOn Clairvoyant, you mention Hendrix in “Axeman,” but by his earlier stage name, Jimmy James. When and how did you meet him? Yes, I do. It’s a 1920. I have older guitars, too. I have a 1901 Martin OO-42, a 1919 Martin OO-45K that’s the only one in existence – it’s the guitar Emmylou Harris played in The Last Waltz, a beautiful koa Martin, and I have the only one in the world. So they started making that guitar – all in koa or with a spruce top. 11) ’28 Martin OOO-45 12-fret gut-string. 12) 1901 Martin OO-42 with original “coffin” case. 13) Martin Robertson Signature OO-42K2, all-koa version. 14) ’66 Epiphone Howard Roberts. Hitherto, lawyers expected the information to be there without themselves having to do anything, and then they moaned about the accuracy of the information and refused to engage with the system or the process. So, the firm enters a vicious cycle and lawyers use the system less and less, and get even worse at providing the much needed data. The development in signature scraping in CRM-related technology that finally broke this impasse. Before we move on, we should mention the 22 jumbo frets, the large-button die-cast tuners and the chunky bridge included with the SE. The latter is the classic PRS wrap-around combined bridge/tailpiece, in this case with six individual string saddles that provide you with accurate intonation adjustment.

You know, it was really reaching for emotional things, and it wasn’t about just depending on excitement. It was depending on just things that would hopefully send chills down your spine and touch an emotional nerve. The model hasn’t been made in a long time, but Martin started making it again because of this record. I don’t know what they’re calling it – like an “Eric/Robbie” guitar. But we talked a lot about guitars, and he showed me how he put the strings on his guitar and the way that he massaged the strings. Because I never understood how his guitar didn’t go terribly out of tune, with his abuse of the tremolo bar. The only person that uses that in a more extreme fashion is me – and it goes out of tune like mad. And he didn’t tune between songs or anything. He showed me how he massaged the strings when he changed them, so they were ridiculously stretched out. It’s evolved over the years, but I probably think of myself as a songwriter first. The guitar playing and the songwriting and the singing – all those things kind of blend together. As much as The Band was associated with Dylan, you’re on Blonde On Blonde, but the rest of the group is only on The Basement Tapes, 1973’s Planet Waves, and then the live Before The Flood.Yeah, I was. A lot of that was just youth. In the beginning, I was trying to make it do more, more all the time. Louder, higher, brighter, harder – just because you’re young and you play the guitar the same way as you drive a car.

A lot of it has to do with just sonic expression, and the music is just making the sound. The sound and the music and the melodies, or the anti-melodies, become an emotional expression. I don’t read or write music, so I have to express it in poetic terms. A lot of it, I do on the keyboard. Then as I started learning more about those kinds of things, I was very much impressed by the sound of guitars. I thought Les Paul & Mary Ford’s early recordings were a breakthrough in music. They really jumped out and tapped me on the shoulder. And you know who else? That guy Joe Maphis – and the Collins Kids [featuring Larry Collins]. What did they play, Mosrites?

In 1980, he composed the score to “Raging Bull” and in the years since has served as music producer or music consultant for “The King of Comedy,” “The Color of Money,” “Casino” and “Gangs of New York.” On his own, he also wrote, produced and acted in “Carny,” starring Jodie Foster.

Robertson’s relationship with the director resulted in him scoring such films as The King Of Comedy, The Color Of Money, and the classic Raging Bull. But Robertson wouldn’t release his self-titled solo debut until 1987, which included Danko and Hudson, as well as U2, Peter Gabriel, jazz arranger Gil Evans, and producer Daniel Lanois. I played more guitar than on any album I’ve ever done. And I didn’t realize that until I was finished. That particular gut-string turned out to be a star on this record. I’ve had it since 1973 or ’74, but it’s not a guitar that I used very much. Eric said, “You mind if I try out this guitar?” He did, and he said, “Oh, my God, this is an amazing instrument.” He was really enjoying playing it. I think he played it on three songs on the CD, and I played it on a couple. In 1963, the combo left Hawkins en masse, renaming themselves Levon & The Hawks, but not before Robertson would put his stinging stamp on several Hawkins recordings, including his covers of “Bo Diddley” and especially Diddley’s “Who Do You Love.” (Some of the Hawks’ own recordings, including the nasty instrumental “Robbie’s Blues,” later surfaced on the boxed set A Musical History.) The Band dissolved (or Robertson dissolved The Band, depending on who’s recounting the events) in ’76, throwing a star-studded concert at San Francisco’s Fillmore Auditorium on Thanksgiving Day. It was dubbed “The Last Waltz,” as was Martin Scorsese’s subsequent documentary of the event and the group. I’ve read that I stayed there during the summers, but I was there a lot more than that. Just about every vacation time, every holiday, that’s where we would go, because that’s where my mom’s family was.
