In this podcast guitarist and OutsideGuitar.com founder Aram Bajakian (Lou Reed, John Zorn, Malcolm Mooney of CAN) talks to Bill Frisell. What can be said about Bill except that everyone who has ever heard him has wondered how he's able to make the guitar sound so beautiful. During the course of his career, Bill has worked with  John Zorn, Paul Motian, Marianne Faithful, Jeff Buckley, Joe Henry, Hal Willner, Allen Toussaint and Richard Hell, just to name a few. His own albums take listeners into another plane, where time is stretched and the sounds emanating from his guitar are the other-worldly soundtrack. In this interview, Bill and Aram talk about guitars, particularly all the connections that emanate from one guitar shop in Manhattan, Carmine Street Guitars, where master luthier Rick Kelly makes his telecasters and stratocasters. They also discuss Jim Jarmusch, Voidoids and Lou Reed guitarist Robert Quine, the art of practicing and pedals, in addition to other questions asked by outsideguitar.com subscribers.
