I have watched all three and he has not said a bad word about anyone, only praise. Great guy.
That was refreshing. No drama.
He did mention "Bobby"s hairstyle 😅
I could have listened to several more hours of this. Skunk is a great story teller as well as musician and very generous in his acknowledgement of fellow musicians. And Joe as always does a great job interviewing from a place of knowledge and enthusiest.
Thank you for watching and supporting us Brad…. Much appreciated….Joe
He's right up there with Keith Richards and Sir Paul in terms of being "a great story teller as well as musician".
Story telling is an cultural art, that is if you have something to tell and Jeff sure does! Lets preserve story telling. Love your post Brad.
I do not think I have ever heard a more interesting musician than Jeff. His musical history, stories and recollections are a joy to listen to. I even ended up watching one of Jeff lectures at a science conference recently, lasting about an hour. He even picked up a guitar and plays My Old School in various musical styles to illustrate a point he was making. A tremendous and unique man. Inspirational.
incredibly bright guy.
Jeff was and still is the epitome of professionalism and coolness, That Ricki Don't Lose That number riff is just fantastic so clean and perfect!
I have enjoyed this Skunk Baxter series So Much! He is like Chet Atkins... A gentleman guitarist. I could listen to his stories forever.
I reckon he would appreciate this comment should he read it which I doubt. I hope Chet would too...
That whole Skunk interview was off the charts terrific Joe! What an amazing musician and great guy! Thanks and hope that all is well with you. 👍👍👏👏😉😉
Thanks again Steve…..Joe
@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum Fantastic set Joe; THANK YOU!
Joe has the ability to make a meek person open up and tell their life store. When he interviews a person like Jeff, who has no problem talking, it's a whole new ball game. As always well done Mr. Chambers.
Thanks Bryan….. I do really appreciate the extremely kind comments from you and other viewers. I’ve really enjoyed sharing these interviews with like minded people like you. I’ve always wondered how great music was created and asked these same questions anytime I had the opportunity to meet great players. Being a interviewer just happened as a
necessity to make our museum exhibits the best they could be allowing visitors to see and hear the actual musicians tell how they achieved what they did. Later it became a necessity share the interviews on UA-cam to promote the museums new location worldwide. Again thank all of you so much…. Sincerely….. Joe
@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum This is another thing that makes your channel great. You take the time to reply to the comments. Makes us fill welcomed here.
Man I could listen to his stories and music knowledge for hours!
Thanks for watching 51…….Joe
Amazing memory
Loved all three parts of this interview wit Jeff Skunk Baxter. So gracious and humble.
Thanks for watching Gene…..Joe
He's teaching me just how valuable my Guitar Institute education actually was. Howard Roberts and Tommy Tedesco took interest in me and were so subtle in showing me the ropes... and definitely the mindset of what NOT to play in the studio. I had the 7" single of Rikki before I ever took formal lessons and just listened to that solo over and over not knowing it was that cool guy with the big mustache from the Doobie Brothers. When I finally started getting formally trained, Jeff became a real touchstone for me and my goals.
Like others that have seen the Skunk interview, I could listen to Skunk talk about the industry & his life for hours 👍
Skunk is a master, worthy of hanging on every word he speaks. And you, Joe, are a master of the interview. Thank you for the gift of insight into our music.
I could sit and listen to you and Skunk all day man. What a cool dude! You too Joe! ✌🤘
Thanks again John….Joe
love all of these with Skunk. Joe you do incredible interviews with such grace. thanks for these. love to you and Jeff.
Thanks dm…..Joe
I wish this interview was Part 3 of 30. What a great interview with a great musician! Skunk deserves every good thing that has come his way. Give him the impossible, and he says: Count it off. Total pro - Respect. 👍👍👍😎😎😎
Thanks
Love this. After years of admiration for Skunk. I bumped into him at NAMM last year. I actually turned around and called out to him. I never fan-boy, but I HAD to. He couldn't have been any nicer.
Thanks for watching Keith……Joe
I would fan-boy as well. I lived for his Guitar Player magazine column and have heard some of these stories before in that column.
It's OK to be a fan boy every now and then! lol
The guitar solo in "Take Me In Your Arms (Rock Me)" is one of my all-time favorites. Would have been cool to here how that came about.
I love these interviews of the guys who created the music of my youth. It's amazing how well this music still holds up today. Steely Dan was such a different sound. Doobies had a great sound too.
This is so interesting. He’s describing exactly how I felt about the Doobies at the time. They really seemed to step it up. I always thought it was the Michael McDonald influence, but it was really Skunk. Especially Pat Simmons. That period showed how versatile and innovative he is. Hope you have Pat as guest sometime. Probably already have.
Hi Paul…. I haven’t interviewed Pat yet but I would like to. Thanks for watching….Best, Joe
These interviews are awesome. The production is outstanding. Music is our lives
Thanks Max….Joe
Mr Baxter one of the best of the best. And what a gentleman. Knowing what to play when to play. Knowledgeable phenomenal to name a few of his accomplishments. Thanks for the memories.
An old friend and I were teens in the 1970s and we were huge prog rock fans but we also like Steely Dan very much. We didn't care for early Doobie Brothers but after McDonald entered the band, we became huge fans. For years I have wondered how in the world did the band and McDonald team up because both styles of writing were completely different, but after listening to Skunk, now I know why. I had no idea that Skunk got him into the band. Thanks for the Jeff Skunk interviews. All these musicians were like the big brothers we never had.
Jeff is under rated as a musician. Definition of true artisan: top of his craft , & consummate professional. Thanks to the late great Joe Chambers, RIP.
FsisXPXP, thank you for your kind comments & continuing to support the channel… my dad, Joe, really loved sharing these interviews & had a lot of fun interviewing Skunk.
Hope you can visit the museum sometime.
All the best,
Britt
Joe lived one more year after this interview. RIP Mr Chambers
I think Joe have been a great interviewer, he knew about music and the art of asking the right questions, but above all he was a great listener.
RIP Joe Chambers you will be missed.
Terrific series of interviews, Joe. You are doing some of the best one on one conversations on UA-cam. This three
parter with Skunk is a treasure. Thank you!
Thanks Larry…. I appreciate it a lot…. Thanks for watching… Joe
Jeff, please don't ever leave, . And you either Joe. Thank God for you.
Thanks Dan…..Joe
One of Skunk’s great talents is being nice and getting along with others.
The tale related to Tommy Tedesco and Jeff is not the first time TT stood up and took the blame for a "studio cock-up"...I'm sure there's a similar tale where bassist Chuck Rainey relates the same episode as Jeff relates here. Great interview and interviewee. Thanks Joe. Much appreciated.
Thanks Lynda….Joe
You're correct Lynda. I think Chuck said TT covered 3 mistakes for him in a session.
I couldn't wait for this one, thanks Joe. Also appreciated your shout out to Steuart Smith and his gracious appreciation of Don Felder.
Thanks Free…. Joe
His perspective on the transformation of the Doobie Brothers is inspiring-and so evident in their music. It was listening to Minute-by-Minute back in the day that made me think "Steely Dan is kinda similar-Maybe I should give them a closer listen?" Friend had given me mix tape, but had not really played it much. Became a HUGE Dan fan (Doobies as well) and Skunk's story reveals how connected they were. Like SD, the Doobies rose to a higher level of professionalism and creativity.
I also watched all three and could have gone on to watch Mr Baxter all musical day. What a very cool, regular guy, who has done so much with all the best in the business and has a down to earth attitude. Thank you Mr Baxter for making my foot tap!
Have loved Jeff Skunk Baxter as a musician and as one of the coolest looking guys since my college days when I discovered The Doobies and Steely Dan!
I was fortunate enough to have gotten a gig from 1977-80 as a morning man on a 100,000 Watt Rocker/AOR station where I got to play all their music six days a week! Great music and memories!
My daughter lives across the street from the museum, it’s an amazing place to see. Stop in if you’re ever in Nashville and be in awe at the history in there. 👍
AVSSharky, thank you for visiting & supporting the channel…. It would have meant so much to my dad, Joe, and does to me too. Hope to meet y’all next visit!
Best,
Britt
Thank you, Joe. You’re such a great interviewer. Like music, you know when to ‘play’ and when to leaves holes for your guest to ‘play.’ And what a guest…Skunk is such a gentleman. This was thoroughly enjoyable! ❤️❤️
Hi 707…. That was a very thought comment:)…. Best, Joe
27 pages of music on wheels .. "Okay, let's go!" .. that's being in the game, all the time. Great interview, tremendous career!
I started watching "Musicians Hall of Fame" interviews last night and they're the first things I started watching this morning. They are addictive and UNBELIEVABLE! All of these people have such great stories, one right after the other. I've subscribed and I clicked on the notifications. I don't want to miss a single one. Such valuable and informative material Joe. WELL DONE!
Thanks Michael… I appreciate it very much….Joe
David Campbell…Becks Dad lol ❤️ Skunk you are a genuine human being and a stellar player
I only heard of Joes passing a few days ago. I never met him personally, but we had , rather he had always responded to my replies in a personal manner. There was no one like him. His humility I’m in awe of. A sad day. RIP J C
Jacquesgerbercosteau, thank you so much for your extremely kind message. My dad, Joe, really appreciated his friends, like you, here on YT. Even though you didn’t meet him in person, you definitely knew him! Thank you for your comments & continued support for the channel, it would have meant so much to him & does to me too. If you make it to the museum, let me know.
All the best,
Britt
@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum Britt. I was really saddened by your dad’s passing. I don’t fawn over musicians, I’ve been one for sixty years. What impresses me is someone with a great knowledge, and humility. I’ve done sessions in Nashville , albeit the last time was fifteen years ago. Had I have known of your dad then I would have made a point of meeting him somehow. He was a one off, and I would have loved to hear some of his personal stories. Joe had met, and spoke to everyone I admire. I could tell that everyone he spoke to felt the same way about him. I would ask him about Don Everly often, as the Everly’s are the ones that got me into music. Dons opening chord riffs , and their harmonies. Your dad knew Don. I would have loved nothing more than to have him ( your dad ) . Hope you’re doing well.
Kind Regards,
Jakob Gerber
The songs Jeff played on blew my mind
as well the part lll interview .
I Enjoy the series and Thank You Joe.
Thanks Chase…Joe
skunk is royalty - thanks man. appreciate your body of work and the times you didn't play/left those spaces, as much as the times you did - a craftsman.
How apropos that the museum display shown at 2:12 includes photos of Wrecking Crew drummer Hal Blaine, who played brilliantly on my favorite track "Any World (That I'm Welcome To)" from Steely Dan's 1975 album "Katy Lied." And so great of Jeff to mention bassist/vocalist Tiran Porter at 12:20. Tiran's tribute to bandmate Tom Johnston "For Someone Special" on their "Takin' It To the Streets" album is on my top-ten list of Doobie Brothers songs. Can't thank you enough for what you do on this channel, Joe.
Thanks once again Andy…. Sincerely, Joe
"For Someone Special" is one of my favorite Doobie's songs, and Tiran was my favorite bass player. So to hear from Skunk that my "faith" was well placed...it means a lot. I even bought and still own at 76' Gibson Thunderbird Bicentennial bass because Tiran played a Thunderbird before moving on to Alembic basses. (In honesty, the darn thing is so headstock heavy and such a "diver" that it's just about unplayable if you're standing up.) I love that the Doobies are still at it, and still sound great. Just a bit of sadness that Tiran is not part of it. Although I think John Cowan is a phenomenal bass player with a stunning voice. Doobie-worthy for sure!
@@TheUnforgettableBuzz Great comments. I've had several guitarists tell me that the biggest drawback to vintage Gibsons is their excessive weight when playing long sets onstage.
@@andyinoregon It took me a second when I read your comment. I bought the bass new in 1977 - somehow it's hard to think of it as "vintage" when it was just a "regular" bass when I got it. LOL!
Joe, your backstage series is my favorite part of UA-cam.
Thanks Guy…. Much appreciated….Joe
Joe is the best in the business.
Way kind of you Tom…. Joe
My favorite guitarist. That guy lays out taste every lick of the way
So great to hear the back stories of these famous people that are in the shadows.
Listening to Skunk, I realise the difference between rockers and musicians.
I can say that I saw Jeff in a performance playing with the Nelson twins. He is an amazing musician and ti see him playing from only about 20 feet away, I wouldn’t trade that for all the Doobie Brothers and Steely Dan concerts seen from 50 yards away
Seen Skunk with the Doobies several times. Always loved his spots and playing
In May, 2011, I video documented gavel to gavel proceedings during the three-day celebration of the Naval Aviation Centennial, as held at the National Museum of Naval Aviation, at Naval Air Station Pensacola, FL. During the final evening's Banquet event, the Master of Ceremonies announced that a very special guest would perform the National Anthem. It was none other than Skunk Baxter. He came in on cue, plugged in and proceeded to play a most beautiful and rousing interpretation of the Anthem. A lifelong fan of Skunk's, I was totally blown away by his performance, as was everyone else in the house. How the foundation ever got him to perform, I'm not quite sure, but it was something very special to behold.
Great work, as usual, Joe. You are the best in the world at what you do. Keep 'em coming!
Thank you Bill…. Joe
Truly a gentleman, a talented artist and a delightful intellect. Wish we could have a beer together. Ok four.
Thanks for not making us wait too long. I really love Skunk's playing, his military background is fascinating as well.
Thanks again!
Thanks Fred…. Glad you enjoyed it… Joe
@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum Quick question, Who plays the slide on your intro music? It's such a great piece of music.
Ryan Wariner……. Steve Wariner’s son…. Joe
Baxter worked in the Pentagon on some aspect of nuclear missile theory.
@@MrUltraworld I’d like to hear the whole song actually!
Consultant and Chairman for the Congressional Advisory Board on Missile Defense. This dude has lived a very eventful and interesting life. Must be the "Stash".
Joe, you really need to invite Skunk back to record parts 4, 5 & 6 and then later on parts 7, 8 & 9. He that interesting.
I agree Jim…. Joe
It's just too bad that the Rock & Roll HOF doesn't have a tenth of the passion, intelligence and class of
Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum. Keep up the great work Joe.
Very kind comments Doc…. Best, Joe
RRHOF was started by Rolling Stone Magazine. Need I say more?
Pretty sure the R&R HOF is a HOF in name only and, is more about any money they can scrounge up!!
If I were an amazing player like Me. Baxter, I’d be a heck of a lot prouder of being in the MHOF than the other!
Such an interesting series Joe. Jeff Baxter is such a talented and humble guy. He seems so nonchalant but I’m sure it’s because of a nonstop work ethic.
The harder you work at something, the luckier you get!
Well done!
Thanks Cal….Joe
I’m familiar with Jeff Baxter and steely Dan and doobie brothers, gotta get some catch up on both groups, but to hear someone not saying one negative word about anyone or anything, peace, love and respect to this man cause I’m learning to not be negative about anything in life!! ☮️
45 years ago I flew these guys around the country. So many stories and Jeffery was a great guy and treated everyone with respect. I got my start thanks to these guys. Retired with 30 years of airlines and enjoyed everyday! Thanks Jeffery for the memories.
Thanks for sharing your memories John…..Joe
@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum
I could tell you many back stage antics. The cash deals just before going on stage to the groupies who followed the band from city to city. It was a party every night except Mondays Laundry.
John…. I’m sure the groupies were there solely as music fans:)
What a great trio of interviews Joe.
Thanks Mark……Joe
LOVE Jeff Baxter .... THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!
His eyes light up telling these stories.
Thank you. Baxter is large. 🤜🏿
WOW! So glad I stumbled on this. We've followed Skunk since Can't Buy a Thrill. Had no idea what a rich history and facsinating life Jeff has had, and it ain't over. Great job Joe!
I was always interested in the interplay Jeff had with Denny Dias and who was playing what on the Steely Dan stuff. Maybe next time. ❤❤
I didn't know I've been listening to him for years.
All three parts held my attention for the duration of the videos.
Thanks to all who made it happen.
Thanks for watching Ed…. Glad you enjoyed it……Joe
Jeff's has always been one of my guitar heroes! Gr8 interview Joe!!! Thank you so much!!!
Thanks Chris….Joe
Outstanding interview. Bet Baxter has a million stories.
The best interviewer yet! Joe Chambers rocks!
linkedup7346, my dad Joe would have really appreciated your kind words and support for the channel.
Hope you can visit the museum sometime too!
Best,
Britt
So I just finished playing a set at a Killington VT. Bar and was told to go meet skunk , I was stunned as he thanked me for playing ! I was like, NOOO thank you !. There's a lot more to the story after that but he was a super nice guy and we had a good conversation.
Thanks for sharing Funk…. joe
Possibly my favorite MHF interview, ever.
Thank you Ian…. Best, Joe
Having come of age at the right time I can say honestly say that I've not had a road trip in over 40 years that Jeff was not part of. It sounds like I'm not alone Joe. Mr Baxter is a huge part of the sound track for many lives and it's great to see the comments here. The funny thing is that the series could easily be another 3 parts, and that would still not be enough. I've just found some talks by Jeff on You Tube which are also an inspiration. Many thanks from Canada. : )
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts Scuff…..Joe
Such a great interview with Skunk. I'll be watching for his solo release early next year. Thanks so much for the MHFM channel, Joe. One of the best on YT.
Thanks Seven…. Best, Joe
He has so many great outstanding solos, but if I had to pick one, it would be “Take me in you arms” solo. Great interview!
Jeff Skunk Baxter is my favorite slide guitarist. Just love the positive sound energy that his guitar gives us.
Joe, thank you for bringing such outstanding interviews and subject matter! Skunk is a living legend. I want to compliment you on your interview style! You do a wonderful job of asking great questions, and most importantly, giving the person you're interviewing time to give their thoughts without interruption. Thank you!
Patrick…. Thank you too for supporting our channel. Your comments are extremely kind and very much appreciated. I’ve loved music my whole life. I never wanted to do anything else. I knew the music my generation was listening to was better than anything before although I like the WW2 era big bands etc. Elvis was my first memory and the evolution of folk to folk rock etc. afterwards addicted me to the radio to hear what was coming next. I’m not a professional interviewer. I’m just curious what happened. You can’t learn if you don’t shut up and listen. Thanks again for the encouragement. John Sebastian will be the next interview airing this weekend. Thought I’d give you a heads up:) Sincerely, Joe
@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum As always, very grateful for your insightful interview. But, you're kidding - John Sebastian is next? I mean, I look forward to every one of your interviews, bar none, but Sebastian? I'll definitely be among the first to tune into that one (or more?). A master who could induce an ambiance, an environment with his music.
Patrick…. He has quite a history in folk, pop music history. We cover the village in N.Y in the 60’s…. Ed Sullivan’s show, Dylan, playing Woodstock in 1969. Even the Welcome Back Kotter theme song to the tv show he wrote and sang. Him playing harmonica as a session player etc. I think you’ll enjoy it…. Best, Joe
@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum Thank you, Joe! Look forward to it.
What a fascinating cat this man is. And, of course, your interview skills, Joe. Thank you…
Thanks again Bill……..Joe
Jeff's such a very cool dude, wants to give you the skinny without any ego tripping... love it.
I’ve always been in awe of Skunk Baxter..! This interview was a pleasure to experience..!
Joe,you seem to always take the interviews in the right direction.. Great job..!!👍🏼
Thanks Joseph….Joe
I've come to this via episode 2..yes Gary Katz was in Seatrain..its where Peter Rowan came to my notice.
I wish someone would do something to honor the musicians of that band.
Now, Skunk Baxter
It's easy to see the man is not some over inflated ego driven big headed fool.
Damn a humble guy
Back in the day I chose to give up music because of the predatory nature of the male egos in the seventies.
Had I had musicians like Skunk Baxter, I'd have pursued it
No regrets about this.
Men like him are as rare as hens teeth.
I still sing but never on stage
Thank you for these videos.
You made an old woman 😃
Love Jeff Skunk Baxter! He’s not only a World-Class guitarist but he’s also a very bright guy, as well as interesting as hell!
Plus he’s a patriotic American!!
You may want to consider a part four, I didn't want it to end.
Hi mtc ….. we might add some bonus clips later that were edited out of the other three clips. Thanks for watching…….Joe
Absolutely great to hear Skunk praise Tirana Porter as one of the most underrated bass players. He's an absolute Monster!
I’ve been playing down under 50 plus years and Skunk was one of my distant mentors, thanks
Thanks Joe!!! Skunk is the coolest of the cool. Very talented player, with a style all his own!! Great interviews. Can't wait for more.
Thanks Scot….Joe
Joe Chambers Rocks his interviews. Thank you!!!
Thanks Gary…..Joe
Great interview. Skunk is a true guitar hero. Way to go Joe.
Thanks for watching Pete…. Joe
Such a cool guy I've followed since forever.
I cannot wait to tell the band to bring the volume up or down an octave!!
Joe, we we got the band back together....a great touring fun, fun, band....we last played together 42 years ago,and we are all just...its so great. You can go back.
Thanks Roger…. Thats great you’re playing…. Joe
You’re killing it Joe! Great interview as usual! Skunk is an extremely interesting guy as well as a monster player.
Thanks Fuji…..Joe
Joe as guitar player for many years l find your interview series inspiring. Thank you very much. God bless stay safe Rock on 🙏😷🎶❗👀
Thanks John….Joe
It’s about time you posted Part 3! I watched Parts 1&2 in a row the day after they were posted, but Part 3 was nowhere to be found!!!! What an insult to Skunk. For SHAME, Hall Of Fame! And God Bless Tommy Tedesco - and his son, my pal Denny Tedesco. If you haven’t seen Denny’s movie, “The Wrecking Crew!”, do the right thing and BUY IT NOW! Just make sure you search for it with the EXCLAMATION POINT (!) on the back end of the title. Otherwise, you’ll get bogged down in a bunch of stuff about BASEBALL! It took Denny several YEARS to make the movie, and it’s DEFINITELY WORTH YOUR TIME AND MONEY!
Ed…. Part 3 was out Wednesday. Thanks for watching…. Best, Joe
Good ol Joe. This is gold sir. Nice.
Fantastic and so honest and down to earth.
In 1978 I went to my first concert at The Coliseum in Seattle. I was 12 and it was The Doobie Brothers (Ambrosia opened). I couldn’t wait to see Skunk jam. Unfortunately, I think he had just left band the day before the concert. He mentioned how he left Steely Dan, but I’m curious how or why he left the DB’s.
Hi Bridget…. I spoke to Skunk today and asked him why he left the Doobies. Short answer… it was just time. It was a mutual agreement…. Best, Joe
Brilliant. As a musician and songwriter, I know exactly what he means that when you're a session man, you do what you are told. Skunk is great.
Thanks for sharing your comments Andrew….Joe
@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum You're welcome! Thanks for the acknowledgement and I really do enjoy all of your broadcasts. I think this is my favorite of all the ones you've done!
Thanks again Andrew….Joe
Mr Baker is awsome no matter what band he played with !!! Its not what you can brag about its what you can acctuley do
Another one knocked out of the park, Joe. Just watched all 3 parts and loved every minute.
Thank you, sir!!
Thanks again Rick…Joe
Brilliant interview series.
Sorry to see it end!
I loved the comments about knowing when not to play.
Lee Sklar relates a story where he was asked to replace a bassline on a track and declined...apparently it was Victor Wooten and the producer just did not know what he had.
Cheers!
Thanks Sean…..Joe
Great interview Joe. You have a knack for getting your guests to relax and open up. One area I was you could have addressed of Skunk’s playing is his pedal steel work. When I go back and listen to his pedal steel on both Steely Dan and Doobies work, the solos or even the accompanying phrases that he delivers really adds a distinct sound to those songs. Thanks again Joe. Look forward to watching/listening to your next guest video chats.
Hi Chris…. Should’ve mentioned other instruments he might have played. I often do include that question but I dropped the ball this time…. Best, Joe
Ya left us all wanting more for sure. Great interview series Joe. I appreciate this so much. 👍🏻😎
Thanks for watching David…..Joe
Skunk is the Forrest Gump of rock and roll. He has been in the right place at the right time every time. Great stories!....and you didn't even touch on the fact that he is a self taught expert on missile defense systems with top secret government clearance.
Thanks for watching Steve… yes we purposely left the DOD out to avoid anything we shouldn’t talk about. Best, Joe
What an amazing interview. So informative. Two masters!!
Ya Joe!!! grew up listening to these bands and to see how it all came about is great Keep em comingJoe Thanks
Thanks Jack…. Joe
A brilliant musician that also happens to be a missile defense expert who is a consultant to Congress. This dude is really an extraordinary guy.
