LCG #149 – Clare Free interview
Hello,
I am very happy to present you with the second interview on the Channel of a women guitar player with Clare Free (aka @ClareFree1).
As a reminder the first women interviewed was Heike Matthiesen whom I interviewed in french in episode #103 at last year MusikMesse. I also did more recently an interview with her in english that I will publish in the near future.
We need more women playing the guitar!
Let’s concentrate now on Clare who has just released a great blues album called “Dust And Bones”:

Extracts played before the interview:
- Believe In Me
- Stronger Than You Think
- Smaller Miracles
- Scars
Fours songs from the a previous EP “How It Is” are downloadable for free from Clare web site, check this page: www.clarefree.co.uk/download-songs/
Enjoy,
Pierre.

LCG #124 – Popa Chubby interview
Hello,
For the 2nd time (see #81 for the 1st interview), I had the pleasure to interview Popa Chubby as he was in paris to promote his latest album Back To New York City. After the interview we did a video recording of the song Pound Of Flesh you will see in next week episode.
Picture: Nicolas Esposito (http://rendezvouscreation.org)
Meeting and interviewing Popa is always some kind of adventure, this time we were supposed to to the interview in a radio studio but during the show he broke two strings so we had to go back to the hotel to get some new strings. We ended up doing the interview in the basement of his hotel in the gym room!
Extracts from Back To New York City played before the interview:
- Pound Of Flesh
- Back To New-York City
- A Love That Will Not Die
- She Made Me Beg For It.
Don’t forget to check out next week episode with the video recording of Pound Of Flesh!
Happy listening,
Pierre.
PS: Popa will play the Olympia on November 20th with Walter Trout.

Hello,
I had the pleasure this quiet but VERY intense bluesman, believe me, he has a DEEP voice and it is quite a feat to interview such a nice gentleman with such an articulate way to express himself.
His album “Booker’s Guitar” is a pure joy and if Eric plays near you, go check him out!
