@@blackstars14 I much prefer Radiohead (as my favourite band since forever) although over the last few years I've revisited Blur and actually appreciate their stuff. Coxon seems to be the naturally more talented guitarist. That isn't to say that Mr Greenwood isn't a raw talent, more that he excels in inventiveness and sound creation. His recent delay technique is brilliant for example.
Great show again guys! Let’s get Bernard Butler and (perhaps less likely) John Squire on the show, to complete the Britpop bingo, pleeeeeeeeeaaaaase!!!

Great to see so much love for Graham, he is a proper legend and a real inspiration. Back in the 90's it was him, Jeff Buckley, and Gaz Coombes, which inspired me to buy my first proper Tele from Andertons. Such a great player, thanks for having him on ❤
Graham's been my favourite guitarist since I first heard Blur... oh far too many years ago now lol. Lovely bloke too :) He's in his element here and it's always a joy to watch.
I was never really a Blur fan but this is easily one of my favourite interviews in quite some time on the channel.Great questions & Graham was really happy to answer anything & everything. Top job boyos!
Superb guest. Superb interview. Superb show! And I love how this looks with the guitars, pedals and amps in the background. Just makes you want to be there in the room!
What a Wonderful episode. There's nothing like the re-meeting of the rawness and spit and joy that makes us human. We all need to know one or two people like Graham. Thank you guys!
What an amazing character Graham is. These type of people are very few and far in between. Absolutly understand how he fit into Blur and their music reflects that. Glorious interview and I learned a lot!
I actually think Graham might be one of my favourite humans of all time.... Thank you for the 2 interviews, they have opened my eyes to what a talent and absolute dude he is...
I was living in London and working as a guitarist. One day the band I was in had a gig at Worlds End Camden, sometime 1989,1990…we were to share the bill with an unknown band called Blur. We played first, played well, were well received. It was a singer from LA signed to Warners, yada yada, we played and then came Blur….it was powerful,mesmerizing and full of amazing music. They well deserve all that they achieved. Graham had a Tele and a Vox if my memory serves me well and sounded really good.
Wonderful stuff, brilliant to hear somebody so creative and imaginative in action, loved the piece at the end and the shy smile said it all, a guy with incredible natural talent and yet apparently without ego. Go Graham, absolutely loved it mate. Thanks TPS!
A great interview. You’ve got the feel blues guy asking tech questions And the the tech guy asking feel questions about visual arts and how music and art are intertwined . Mick and Dan are at the top of their game and tps is a leader , you chart your own path and we love it . Thanks TPS
Such a brilliant show, I absolutely loved it. To get Graham once was amazing, to get him twice is...well, I feel very spoiled! Thanks again for all that you do Dan and Mick. And thanks Graham for all the brilliant music and guitar playing over the years.
Great episode, I saw Blur at Wembley last year and The Waeve at Warwick Castle a couple of months ago supporting Noel Gallagher. Both completely different gigs but Graham was mesmerising each time. What a legend ❤
He’s the reason I first started learning the guitar in about 1993, and his work with Blur through that era was amazing - but he’s reached even higher levels with the waeve I reckon in terms of musicality and the complexity of each song.
Fairport Convention meets King Crimson is a vibe I can definitely get behind! Love it when there's someone who's a little bit more in my musical wheelhouse on the show, but who are still total guitar nerds just like the rest of us. Must be the time of year when I briefly learn how to play Coffee & TV properly, yet again, then forget as it's so damn weird! Brilliant show, love you guys, love Graham 😊
Another great episode, guys. Graham is a huge inspiration, and the sole reason why I own a Tele, even though I’ll never sound like him. But that’s why he’s such a huge inspiration 😊 Now, please please please please please flush out Kevin Shields and get him on the show. And ask him when the next MBV album is coming while you’re at it 😅
Thanky you for this! Graham is one of the greatest living (and actively creating) musicians of our time! And the quality of his recent output is just unbelievable: Darren, End of the F***ing World and the last Waeve album I consider simply classics (and I am old fashioned and super picky).
He’s a very cool chap. Enjoyed this very much. I think his comparison of his music to abstract impressionism is spot on. “This increases the jeopardy” 😂! Thank you leg-ends!
TPS consistency: A+ shows that are interesting and with plenty of wit! I love Graham. Where I live in the states and being a bit older than Mick & Dan, I missed things like Blur and Pulp. I have to give my son credit for turning me on to the Guerillas - and TPS for Graham/Blur. Boy, did I miss out. Oh, and Pulp is the band I always needed in my life that I did not have. Saw them live last weekend with my son. He's a good lad! I would have never known to go. Life changing. I finished my pedalboard today during this episode and it rocks (GigRig power and a QMX-6).
I'm glad the soundtracks were mentioned. TEOTFW 2 and Superstate were incredible pieces of work. Graham's work in recent years I'd describe as adding texture to a song. There's something new to hear with each listen.
I somehow love the bit at 2:21 where he notices his dangling necklace, decides that's no good and pops it under his shirt to get that over and done with.
Another timeless episode! I love hearing Rockstars talk about their previous and upcoming projects. It is so interesting to hear what inspired their creativity. Woo! ❤
Superb show... Thank you fellas. And that bethnal green... What a unique shade of green. I don't recall seeing any other guitar that particular green. Very funky indeed!
@@michelleneeds4165 You could be right... I don't see that particular green after a quick look on their website. Whatever the story, it's definitely a unique shade of green, that pops without being too bright or flashy like a bright lime. Cheers!
Man that is so much like me. I will draw out a number of circuits that are ok. Then go to sleep and something happens and then there is magic and you know that is what you should build! Love that EQ sound, can get that through a treble booster and a bucket delay with the repeats off. Great show thanks so much!
One of my guitar heroes - Blur were essential to me learning and shaping what sound I wanted from my own guitar. I have a ProCo Rat on my board just cause I heard Graham uses one, and I bought a vibrato pedal cause I love the slow section of Country House.
Gotta a lotta love for Graham Coxon, my generation’s guitar hero without the cliches, he’s so much more an original player than others of the Britpop era not naming any names and even though I like those others too
Possibly the most talented, inventive and thoughtful guitarist of his generation. Thank you for having him on again.
Jonny Greenwood entered the conversation. Love them both!
Ive always liked his playing too. It's great to see that he is one of us, he gets it. Thanks Dan and Mick! And keep making awesome music Graham!
Noel Gallagher would agree.

And James Dean Bradfield
Nick McCabe… it’ll never happen, but it would be something.
I'd die if Squire ever came on. His sounds with the Roses were guitar perfection IMHO and the reason I've spent a fortune on vintage JBLs.
Yes we absolutely need John squire. He's literally my guitar hero
@@garygallagher7341 Do you get a mate to stand behind your amps, dance weirdly and drive the settings on an Alexis Midiverb?
Graham needs to be on the show at least once a year! Consistently the most entertaining guest!
Just for curious onlookers, song list throughout the video: 😊
0:03 - Can I Call You (Intro)
20:58 - Undine
21:10 - Someone Up There

Graham is sounding excellent as ever. Such a welcome breath of fresh air.

Graham's first appearance is definitely up there in my list of top tps episodes, such a treat to have him back, just a gem of a man.
My UA-cam feed has been 90% Oasis for a week and then this pops up!
Same... Great time to be alive !
I know just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse
Happy with both :)
@@southpawjinx1Oh no southpaw jinx has spoke
Talking about Oasis whilst watching this is like talking about Pot noodle watching Masterchef.
Saw Blur live for the first time last year which made me realise how good a player he actual is
Graham's been my favourite guitarist since I first heard Blur... oh far too many years ago now lol. Lovely bloke too :) He's in his element here and it's always a joy to watch.
I was never really a Blur fan but this is easily one of my favourite interviews in quite some time on the channel.Great questions & Graham was really happy to answer anything & everything.
Top job boyos!
agree, he comes across as disarmingly candid and honest for a guy who has sold millions of records
Truly one of the all time greats of electric guitar.
Superb guest. Superb interview. Superb show! And I love how this looks with the guitars, pedals and amps in the background. Just makes you want to be there in the room!
What a Wonderful episode. There's nothing like the re-meeting of the rawness and spit and joy that makes us human. We all need to know one or two people like Graham.

You guys have such a relaxed, free flowing conversational style. Such an easy watch and you get so much from the players

love it
flew down to london to see graham at the garage london in i think 2002 ish
i was still in school
great memories
I have been loving this musician for a long time. He never disappoints
TPS is the best. I'm an old boomer and I get introduced, in a unique wonderful way, to artists I missed along the way of life.
Please go and listen to the entire Parklife album by Blur.
Graham's playing through the album defined Brit Pop for me
Love Parklife but 13 has my favourite Graham playing
Hurray, my all time favourite guest!
Wonderful stuff, brilliant to hear somebody so creative and imaginative in action, loved the piece at the end and the shy smile said it all, a guy with incredible natural talent and yet apparently without ego. Go Graham, absolutely loved it mate. Thanks TPS!
A great interview.
You’ve got the feel blues guy asking tech questions
And the the tech guy asking feel questions about visual arts and how music and art are intertwined . Mick and Dan are at the top of their game and tps is a leader , you chart your own path and we love it .
Thanks TPS
Absolutely my favorite guitar player ever!
Jonny Greenwood would be a great guest.
Another hugely underrated guitarist.
Is he really underrated lol? I mean both Jonny and GC are widely regarded as two of the best guitarists of the last 30 years or so…
What ! Jonny greenwood 😂😂😂😂
Great stuff, really enjoyed this! Nice one Graham.
What a lovely bloke! Always loved his playing.
When is Robert Smith coming to TPS!?! And Brian Molko. ❤. Another great one, fellows.
The older he gets the better his voice gets, assuming you're talking about the cure guy.
You want the cure AND the placebo?
I really need to know how Brian plays "Scared of Girls".
Love Graham and his unique style
Amazing work fellas, what an episode!
Blown away hearing Graham through the Artist 60+RT as well. ♥
Graham is my spirit animal 🙂 love you guys
I refuse to believe it's been 6 years since Graham was on. In my mind that's a "new" TPS epsiode!
I never knew Graham was the spirit animal I’ve been missing in my life.
Such a fantastic interview. Well done in navigating the space between gear and music with this one. Nailed it!
Such a brilliant show, I absolutely loved it. To get Graham once was amazing, to get him twice is...well, I feel very spoiled! Thanks again for all that you do Dan and Mick. And thanks Graham for all the brilliant music and guitar playing over the years.
This was brilliant, Graham’s playing is so musical, super fun guy to listen to as well. Great show
I love Graham’s approach to guitar and songwriting- that desire to explore and take risks. Thank you guys, what a treat! ❤
Great episode, I saw Blur at Wembley last year and The Waeve at Warwick Castle a couple of months ago supporting Noel Gallagher. Both completely different gigs but Graham was mesmerising each time. What a legend ❤
He is going helix lt and powercab 212 in warwick castle

Graham is continuing the lineage of unique British guitar heroes. So cool.
these videos always remind me he has so many iconic riffs he's truly a 90s legend
One of the most interesting and unique guitarists/songwriters of our time! Thanks for putting him on the show.

These interview formats are brilliant and Graham is utterly inspiring
Saw Graham with The Waeve at the O2 supporting Elbow back in May...... really enjoyed their set. Thanks.
This has absolutely made my day ♥️
Love everything Graham does, what a legend! And great interview!
Thank you lads. That was a great watch. Happy weekend and enjoy the loud guitars in good health
That EQ pedal setting is equal parts genius and nuts...which is as good a description of his playing in general as any!
I enjoy all the content you put out, such good chemistry on this channel whether Mick and Dan or special guest, always good!! Cheers from Texas!!!!
Always interesting conversation with Graham on. Loved it.
Gotta love Graham! What a brilliant guitar player and human being! Cheers
I'm glad the soundtracks were mentioned. TEOTFW 2 and Superstate were incredible pieces of work. Graham's work in recent years I'd describe as adding texture to a song. There's something new to hear with each listen.
fantastic vid,i first saw Blur at Colchester Essex Uni in 1991,was awesome
One of my favourite guitarist and composer.
Graham rules!
Omg i was just looking into pedal switchers which brought me back to the channel....and i find a new graham video!!!!!😮
Welcome back! 🤓🙏
I somehow love the bit at 2:21 where he notices his dangling necklace, decides that's no good and pops it under his shirt to get that over and done with.
With the lips haha
Graham is really one the guitar hero’s of his generation. Trying to learn some of his parts will show you how exceptional his playing is.
What a beautiful, original, precise, and articulate answer Graham gives to Mick's headspace question (c. 27.08 - 30.48)
He’s grown on me so much over the years - it’s the constant exploration and renewal. Mick said it - fearless. But with modesty….
Now this guy can really play with pedals. I love it.!
Yeah! So glad to watch one of my favorite guitar players again on TPS!
Great episode! And wonderful to see the Angry Driver on another board - this has become the best pedal I've ever bought.
I like how Graham’s tone descriptions sound like names for The Seven Dwarves
Thanks fellas !!
Another timeless episode! I love hearing Rockstars talk about their previous and upcoming projects. It is so interesting to hear what inspired their creativity. Woo! ❤
Such a unique guitar player & a genuine artist. Thanks guys, great show.
Yes. GC is the man. Waeve it up fellas.
Superb show... Thank you fellas.
And that bethnal green... What a unique shade of green. I don't recall seeing any other guitar that particular green. Very funky indeed!
I think it was a joke Bethnal Green is an area in East London. Very cockney area, goes with all the rhyming slang they were messing about with too.
@@michelleneeds4165 You could be right... I don't see that particular green after a quick look on their website. Whatever the story, it's definitely a unique shade of green, that pops without being too bright or flashy like a bright lime. Cheers!
Huge fan of Graham Coxon! Thank you as always TPS for everything you do ;)!
It's so funny how Dan and Graham can't stop looking at the pedalboard while talking! :)
The absolute legend.
I was at Wembley last Summer. Blur really know how to pace a show, they are all great musicians but Graham was on fire.
I saw Graham with the Waeve at Green Man festival this year - great band
Great video, Graham truly is a legend!
Man that is so much like me. I will draw out a number of circuits that are ok. Then go to sleep and something happens and then there is magic and you know that is what you should build!
Love that EQ sound, can get that through a treble booster and a bucket delay with the repeats off.
Great show thanks so much!
God I love listening to Graham. I'll have to check out The Waeve - hopefully they'll be playing some gigs in London
they’re playing two!
@@oochywoochy13 - thanks!
All sold out now unfortunately. I'll keep checking resale though.
@@pabcrane i’m sure the rough trade east signing still have a couple tickets, i only got mine a couple of days ago (sorry if i’m wrong!)
How can you not love that guy - The Britpop Nigel Tufnell 🙌
I remember his first episode. It was great. Gosh, I’m getting old.
Got to meet Graham in Glasgow on the first Waeve tour. He signed my ProCo Rat and Boss BF-2
One of my guitar heroes - Blur were essential to me learning and shaping what sound I wanted from my own guitar.
I have a ProCo Rat on my board just cause I heard Graham uses one, and I bought a vibrato pedal cause I love the slow section of Country House.
Mick deftly flipping the sustainer switch off for Graham made me chuckle there
This is fantastic. Loved the rhyming slang!
Oooh, first TPS watched for a while (not been doing musical stuff).
Never really a Blur fan but GC has always been an interesting musician and nerd!
Good to see Coxon so relaxed this time around.
EQ pedal had me shouting 'Nag, Nag, Nag' twenty seconds before Graham mentioned it. Great show! Always a fabulous guest.
Thank the Lord. More Coxon. 🙏🏻
Another great flavour of my favorite tints of UK guitarists!! 🥦
@56:00 is brilliant Grahams really enjoying it🙂
Great guitarist.. best of his generation
Gotta a lotta love for Graham Coxon, my generation’s guitar hero without the cliches, he’s so much more an original player than others of the Britpop era not naming any names and even though I like those others too
Awesome … thank you for this … clicked so fast … massive fan.
OMG he is BACK. And getting to know the "new" shed. What a great channel this is.
NEW GRAHAM CONTENT! Wooooooo!
