LCG #150 – Richie Kotzen interview
Hello,
For this episode #150 I am very happy to present you with an interview from guitar super star Richie Kotzen (aka @Richie_Kotzen) himself! He was in Paris a couple of weeks ago for a concert and I had the opportunity to meet him right before the gig.
I cannot recommend enough his latest CD “24 Hours” which is shock full of good songs, excellent singing and awesome guitar parts.
Extracts from his album “24 hours” played before the interview:
- Get It On
- 24 Hours
- I Don’t Know Why
- Help Me
Richie’s guitar pics right before the show (notice the inboard tuner around the volume pot):
Enjoy,
Pierre.
PS: thanks Michelle (aka @mholland5001) for putting me in contact with Richie’s management to organize the interview.





Merci pour ton interview, j’ai passé un super moment avec vous. Très bon souvenir de ce concert et ça fait plaisir d’entendre des questions qui creusent un peu plus que d’hab… Pour tout les guitare geeks, c’est cool ! Par contre ton accent… C’est chaud…
J’te taquine…

Bonjour JG,
Merci pour le commentaire. Ravi que tu aies apprécié.
Pour mon accent, j’apprécie la taquinerie.
Après 11 ans au Canada, j’ai perdu toute inhibition pour parler anglais mais j’ai aussi gardé mon accent français pour cultiver ma différence.
Au plaisir de discuter guitare,
Pierre.
