Clang & Clatter

In this six-part interview, King’s X guitarist/vocalist Ty Tabor sits down with Harmony Central to discuss everything from the formation of King’s X and the early days of paying dues in the club circuit to getting signed to a record deal, details of their major releases, getting good guitar tone, his gear, releasing solo albums, and recording in his studio Alien Beans. It’s a very informative, in-depth look into the career of one of the most underrated guitarists around and a true class act.

If you don’t watch any other part of this interview, you have to hear Ty’s story at around the 6:30 mark of the first section about Joey Ramone watching King’s X at their 1987 Megaforce Records showcase at the Cat Club in New York City.

Enjoy!
