Bob Marley and the Wailers Blogs
(108 views)Still on a massive adrenaline rush from Metallica's truly awesome show at the O2 Arena on Saturday night. Today I came across an interesting little featurette in this month's edition of Q Magazine in which none other than Mr Kirk Hammett takes us through his record collection, citing those that had an influence on him. There were some great revelations amongst some a little more obvious. The ones that grabbed my attention were;
Bob Marley & The Wailers, Natty Dread - The album he listens to when he goes surfing.
UFO, Obsession - The album with his favourite riffs and apparently a major influence on the band.
Most pleasing for me personally;
Thin Lizzy, Jailbreak - The album that actually first made the great man want to play the guitar. He says he could not work out how Robbo and Gorham achieved their unique sound.
Nuff said really. Definitely a true rock icon and a man of great taste!!
