In episode 173 of “Have Guitar Will Travel”, presented by Vintage Guitar Magazine, host James Patrick Regan speaks with Eric Schenkman, guitarist and founder of the Spin Doctors. In their conversation Eric talks amps and guitars and growing up in Toronto he also tells us about how Jimmy Dale the orchestra leader from the Sonny and Cher show played a role in his musical upbringing. Eric takes us through the start of the Spin Doctors after going to a small music college and playing with John Popper. He also describes the grittiness of New York City in the mid 80’s where the Spin Doctors were formed. Eric tells us about the current tour with Blues Traveler and the Gin Blossoms and the gear he’ll be using. Eric also tells us about his weekly club date he does in Toronto on Wednesdays at Grossman’s Tavern as the “Action Sound Band”. Eric describes why he left the band he founded early on and what brought him back and the excesses of the early days of the band.
