  • The one where we both got to chat with Mike.

    If you have been with since the start then you will know that we have talked to Grammy Award winning Producer & Engineer Mike Exeter before, in a pre-COVID world, and also in a cloakroom

    For those of you that aren't aware, Mike has worked with the likes of Black Sabbath, Tony Iommi, Judas Priest, Cradle of Filth & UB40, and always has a story to tell about the people he has encountered in his thirty years in the music industry.

    So when he invited us down for a face-to-face at Gospel Oak studios we were there in a heartbeat. What a great way to kickstart Season 4!

  • The one where we find out a lot about merch.

    There was never much doubt about what Rebecca wanted to do when she grew up. Playing and gigging from an early age, she performed her own material influenced by a wide range of artists.

    And to be honest she has never looked back, even picking her degree course to fit in with her playing schedule.

    We get into all of that and more, in a great conversation with Rebecca about all aspects of her musical journey.

  • The one where we talk about how writing songs can resemble a visit to Yo Sushi!

    One of the things that is so enjoyable about the people we chat to on 9-42, is the unique nature of a modern career in the music industry.

    Take Craig, his first band Romeo's Daughter end up having their debut album produced by the legendary Mutt Lange, at a point in time when he was the hottest ticket in town. Not a bad start, particularly as the two of them then went onto to pen a platinum tune for the American band Heart.

    But then his career took a complete sideways turn, as you are about to find out.

  • The one where we were supposed to talk a little bit more about guitars.

    If you are a West Bromwich Albion fan (as Jason is) then you are probably now doing a bit of a double-take, as you read the name of our most current 9-42 guest. Peter has near-legendary status both on and off the field for the Baggies, but that is just a scratch on the surface of his remarkable story.

    Which is why when we found out that he would be attending the Guitar Show this year, we arranged a meet and asked him if he fancied a chat on air. And fortunately for us he not only said yes, but it turns out he really knows how to natter.

  • The one where we found out why Blair never eats his tea at the table.

    What can we say about Blair Dunlop, well lets start with the fact that neither of us knew a great deal about him before his appearance at The Guitar Show this year, other than he plays a bit, writes a bit, and sings songs.

    All that changed as a result of two seismic events, a legendary set on the live stage on Sunday lunchtime at the show, and an equally legendary podcast session that pretty much covered everything from Christopher Lee, to what is (and isn't) acceptable to wear at a folk festival.

    Oh, and in case you don't pick up on it, Blair has a new album out (...and it really is rather special).

  • The one where we talked about Stetsons and Resonators.

    You have probably been wondering where we have been for the last few weeks, and you know what that is a really good question. So good in fact that we decided we needed to ask it out loud.

    Cue a mildly entertaining (if very predictable) story of plane rides and palm trees, bunk-beds and butterscotch, and plenty of other reasons why we have found ourselves episode light, and time-poor.

    We will try harder, we promise.

  • The one where we drag Pete away from his birthday cake.

    We have spoken to a lot of artists over the last three years or so of doing 9-42, but there aren't many who can say that they have been with their current band for over forty years. Pete was drafted into Marillion in 1982, just at the point where they were about to break through and become one of the most influential prog-rock outfits since.

    We had a great chat about his early years in the band, the impact of mainstream chart success and how they went form being a product of the orthodox record industry model, to the trailblazers of crowdfunding and musical self-sufficiency.

    And that's before we get to his insatiable work-ethic, and numerous side projects.

  • The one where we talked about the mechanics of surname pronunciation.

    John Connearn was one of the highlights from the Live Stage at the Guitar Show last year, as you would expect his performance was flawless - but what really impressed was an assured and confident delivery that held the attention of the room without ever dropping a beat.

    So it was a pleasure to be able to spend a little bit of time with him, and unpick his career path to this point. As you would expect Andertons is a big part of it, but there are many other layers that help you understand how he has come this far in a relatively short space of time.

    And the good news is that he will be back again for the Show this year, so well worth considering if you didn't catch him last time around.

  • The one where we talk to a picture of Irene Ketikidi.

    This is a really interesting episode of 9-42, but not necessarily for the reason you maybe thinking.

    It's not because Irene is a highly accomplished player, with both a considerable technical understanding and a passion for a number of musical style, though she does. It's not because she has gained acclaim for her composition and recorded work, though she has. And it's not because of her many years of performing live for a wide variety of bands, events and festivals, because you know what she has done that to.

    It's because she is a great example of what it means to be a modern working musician, and what you have to do to be successful, make a living and manage to sustain it.

  • The one where Chantel invites us into her wardrobe.

    If ever anybody knew what they wanted to do, and how they wanted their life to pan out, then that person is Chantel McGregor. You don't need to spend much time in her presence to realise that playing guitar, recording music and performing onstage was woven into her DNA.

    We had a funny, fascinating and frank chat with Chantel which covered everything from her lockdown exploits, her love of themed backdrops and the determination she had to succeed both academically and professionally in music.

  • The one where we start Season 3 with some bloke from Barnsley.

    I think it's fair to say that Andy Crowley is very focussed on what he does. Known to millions as Andy Guitar, he has achieved success by coming up with a teaching concept that makes sense - and then repeating the formula without getting distracted.

    As you will hear it could all have been very different. Andy's journey could have taken him in a number of directions, but he has always trusted the inner voice that has guided him along the way.

    The result is one of the most successful tutorial channels on YouTube, as well as the single most watched guitar lesson online.

    It was a great chat, and a really nice way to usher in Season three.

    As Chris says himself there is very little he hasn't done in his time as a professional musician. Known to many because of his work in the aforementioned UK Rockers, he has had a varied career covering a number of musical genres, in a eclectic mix of locations.

  • The one where we talked all things acoustic with Rosie Heydenrych.

    A passion for music, and an outlet for self-expression, is what brings a lot of people to the guitar, particularly in your late teens. In that respect what drew Rosie to the acoustic is not especially ground-breaking or unique.

    What is somewhat unique though is the determination and drive to channel that passion into building some really fine instruments, that look and sound great. And that is exactly what Rosie has done with her brand, Turnstone Guitars.

    We get the full story behind that journey, from her first guitar and her early musical influences, to the hard hours necessary to master the art of acoustic guitar building before you can even begin to turn your vision into reality.

    Think of this as a bit of a festive bonus, like a little twinkly adornment for your tree, or an extra satsuma in your stocking.

    So if you need a brief respite from the Christmas Day shenanigans, here is 25 minutes of 9-42 blather wrapped a few little updates and need-to-knows.

    There is very little extra to add, other than to wish you a groovy Christmas and a hard-rocking New Year.

  • The one where Jared cut a lot of long stories short.

    To call Jared a 'guitarist in the blues-rock tradition' would technically be fairly accurate, but also would do him a bit of a dis-service, there is a lot going on with both him and his music that pushes back against that kind of labelling.

    Indeed you don't need to spend any more than 49 minutes with him to get how consumed he is by both music, and the guitar. His passion is as honest, as it is infectious - as you will hear as he talks us through the voyage of discovery that brought him to the guitars he cherishes, his work with Gibson and his own signature Epiphone.

  • The one where Ant surprised everybody with his knowledge of Ableton...

    According to Bass Guitar magazine Steve is 'Britains most innovative bass guitarist'. According to Steve he is a Bassist, Journalist and Academic. According to us he is a very fascinating, very passionate, very lovely bloke.

    Over the course of the episode we (of course) delve into Steves career, but mainly through the prism of trying to establish what the hell it means to be a 'Solo Bass Player' and more importantly how do you turn it into a career. This brings us in turn to his early session and touring work, how he began writing and his fascination with innovation that has knitted these pieces together.

    We also grapple with the slightly surreal notion of his recently diagnosed cancer being a positive career move.

  • The one where we scatted about all over the place with Doug Kauer.

    Even though we chatted for well over an hour, it will take you no more than a few moments to realise that Doug is a real character. Firstly up is the fact that he bounds into the conversation with all the energy of Tigger, and all the breathless delivery of Jim Carrey. And secondly is that infectiousness of a man who doesn't take what he does too seriously, whilst absolutely taking what he does really, really seriously...

    But we digress. Lets start at the beginning with his early life building furniture in his fathers workshop and his deep love of all kinds of guitar music. And when with chatted about that, then we can move onto The Simpsons.

    (oh and just a little heads up, we ended up having to use the Zoom recorded audio for this episode so apologies if it doesn't sound quite as clear as usual.)

  • The one where we learnt a load about buying & selling Vintage guitars.

    I think it's fair to say we would all like to be making a living in the same way that Mike Long does. Mike formed ATB Guitars in 1998 and since then he has been half way around the world on the trail of the kind of guitars most of us can only dream of. To date nearly 5000 instruments have passed through his hands, and he has dealt with a great dollop of Rock Royalty along the way.

    We had a fascinating chat, and as well as a few little tips about where you might go for a 'vintage bargain' he also explained how he he gained his first bit of notoriety in the early days of eBay.
