180 - Russ Ballard

Hi Vintage Guitar people! welcome to “Have Guitar Will Travel”, presented by Vintage Guitar Magazine! With your host, me, James Patrick Regan. Today I’m speaking with Iconic songwriter, guitarist and vocalist Russ Ballard. In our conversation Russ tells us about his famous Silver ‘68 “Swiss Cheese” Strat and his other guitars throughout the years and one of Gary Moore’s guitars that he owns. Russ takes us through his early bands through Argent and his early songwriting experiences and tells us about what it was like touring the U.S. for the first time and what London was like in the ‘60’s. Russ tells us about touring at 79 and why he’s not planning on stopping anytime soon… as well as his songwriting which he doesn’t plan stopping either. Russ repeats words of wisdom his manager gave him early on that are still relevant.
