Bryan Bassett of Wild Cherry
Bryan Bassett is the guitarist who may be best known for his work in Wild Cherry...he created the famous riff that kicks off the band's platinum smash 1976 hit -- "Play That Funky Music." He tells the story of that song, as well as the record's multi-racial appeal that made it Number One on both the pop and R&B charts.
But Wild Cherry marked only the start of Bryan's success in music. After he left the band, Bryan became a producer and engineer at King Snake Records, a specialty blues label. He later joined Molly Hatchet and - for the past two decades - has been a member of Foghat.
And in this episode of RPM45, Bryan tells about all of it...and more!
