Nice to see Dan still has the Matchless I built for him back in 1993. He is the GOAT!

[@VertexEffectsInc]

Yes! It's his main amp!

[@stringtheoryguitars4952]

One of the greatest amps on earth is a Jamison combo owned by George Harris at Panda studios (Tampa FL). Don’t even bring your amp to that studio because after you play the Jamison you’ll want to throw your amp in the dumpster

I challenge anyone who thinks Dan is just a premier studio musician to listen to Giant and not be gobsmacked by how close he was to becoming a huge rockstar. If he’d arrived in LA a decade earlier, his vocals alone would have filled arenas.

Most people won't know this but Mutt grew up in South Africa in the 70's. During this time the country was in cultural isolation through apartheid and got very little international exposure. What did make its way through was a few 70's rock bands, some abba and a lot of country music. Combining this with local folk styles resulted in a near perfect format for what AOR internationally would later become and Mutt defiantly was influenced by it and it formed his blue print. After he left SA to work in the UK the timing of the NWOBHM and his formative influence would almost certainly have fitted perfectly and Mutt honed his sound to what we now know as his formula. You hear it in Def Leppard, Bryan Adams and even the Corrs and Shania Twain. Very melodic, almost country like in areas but enough meat and potatoes to be basic rock and roll. Giant was huge in South Africa and it resonated with a lot of fans there, now we know why...

Mutt is a treasure!

Incredible interview. Truly one of my favorite songs. It was really refreshing to hear the story about her union with Mutt, who I admire a lot and it's a shame there are no Mutt interviews. I would like to comment that Mutt in that year, in addition to the obsession with country music, also had it with the gypsy music of Spain. In addition to working with Dann, having done it with Paco de Lucia in "Have you ever really loved a woman" proves that he only works with geniuses, and Dann really is. Thanks again!

Dan talking about all of those dynamics in producing/recording with Mutt. But teaching less experienced musicians those type of dynamics in a band context in live performance, is maybe not as meticulous, but equally important. When to play, when not to play, what volume, tone, how to follow a singer, etc. This is what makes a good producer i.e. Michael Omartian.

What a great Video (or better said, what a great series of Videos) with the wonderful Dann Huff. Back in the day I was very much into Huff & Lukather. When these two names appeared in the album credits I bought that damned record.... 🙂... and was never disappointed. Example: I still love Bob Scaggs "Other Roads" from 1988. Dann had a huge impact on this record. As much as I love his Solos, I spent hours and hours listening carefully to his rhythm work, how he crafted his parts, how he literally "made" the song (same for Lukather). These guys so damned good, they just know what a song needs - and they are able to DELIVER. Sidethought: After all these years I am still amazed that so many people who say/write they "...love the man.", "...he is my idol..." still don´t know that it's DANN and and not DAN... What a weird superficial world, isn't´it? So thanks for this Video & a huge Thumbs Up!!! Cheers from Germany. Michael.
