Echo & The Bunnymen Guitarist and Photographer Brian Griffin Interview

[@kreationdept]

Really enjoyed this interview. Thanks for putting it up here. Only a week or so after viewing this I hear your good friend has passed away. So sad. Commiserations. RIP Brian

[@andymanson]

As a young photographer, I was at a private event in Moles club, Bath, many years ago and got chatting with a guy who told me he was in a band. "Oh", I told him, "You should use me for an album cover or some portraits; just in case you ever make it." "By the way, what's your band called?", I asked. "Echo and the Bunnymen", the fellah replied with a smile. I've never prayed so desperately for a hole to appear in the earth and just swallow me up!! I'm delighted to see both of these gents in such great form - hugely inspirational human beings who've kept it "real"!

@@VaughnGeorge 🤙👍 Yes it punishes you all especially here in CA country ... content creators having a heck of a time. Maybe ask your other social platform followers to come over to the Tube also to help with acknowledging the video and liking etc.

[@joelreeves]

Will is even cooler when you know his story and hear him interract with people. awesome guy.

[@salemhollst3884]

[@StratsRUs]

Ocean Rain is my favourite album cover as well as being one of my fave albums. It's magic hearing this conversation. Thank you.

[@autecheee]

Amazing stories on the creation of gorgeous album art from E&B. Crocodiles is my favorite!!

[@salemhollst3884]

I haven't even watched this yet, but I'm so excited to see a new VG video and something about Echo and the Bunnymen!

[@RandomJane104]

Same.

[@RandomJane104]

Will's first Bunnyman book was great. Very compelling. I'm looking forward to reading the new installment.

[@ToreHansen]

Deja Vu from Norway, heard about the band the last two weeks in a cabin finally started to listen to the music, and love it and still plays it! Had a suspicion that Griffin take the images and yeah! Sorry this came late but well worth it! Great video Vaughn and happy guy in Norway!

[@VaughnGeorge]

Bless you Tore! I am glad you enjoyed it! VG :-)

[@ToreHansen]

@@VaughnGeorge Great music im wonder why I really missed this band!

[@jamesroney1874]

I thought Vaughn had done the introduction and then buggered off to the airport for the first 25 minutes.... 😂

[@hockeyteeth]

I have my tickets for Buffalo NY. Going to be my 4th time seeing E&B. I fucking love this band!

[@asgerfranksrensen8563]

Just 5 minutes ago I saw the bunny on the Crocodiles cover🙂, and I bought the LP in 84/85.

[@robertgarscadden]

Great seeing Vaughn and Brian again.

[@VaughnGeorge]

Thank you sir!! VG :-)

[@3head103]

brian a truly lovely person and incredible artist...as is will!

[@pewburrito]

I had a question about the KLF but forgot it

[@thekarachannel4281]

Great interview! I have a question. In the prints of Brian Griffin's EATB's album's photo shoots that you are selling, why weren't the original images used or offered?

[@GregoryPaulDavis]

I enjoyed that. The Ocean Rain photo would he great to get.

[@dbfhorses]

Anyone found the YT clip of the Anglia TV doc Brian mentioned??

[@Reprodestruxion]

Of Echo & The Bunnymen and Electrofixion

[@williamr3840]

So Will... Did you ever put 'Echo' into Bossa Nova by accident whilst playing a gig? :0)

[@Reprodestruxion]

The lifehack was to press 2 of the buttons at the same time

[@nicholasg923]

RIP Brian, what a genius, even more poignant.

[@wk4max263]

Eh is is it just me or is Guitar legend Will Sargent turning into the Dad from the royal family??? I remember Will from the old Erics days he was dead friendly to us anoying fans and our never ending questions !
