Robben Ford’s impeccable spiderweb of rock’n’roll connections has been spun since the Californian guitarist made his first moves in the early 70s with The L.A. Express.
These days Ford’s main event is his solo career, and the reason for today’s chat with Classic Rock is his excellent, genre-blurring new album Two Shades Of Blue. But it’s the now 74-year-old’s long-running side-gig as a first-call gun for hire that makes him one of the scene’s finest storytellers – and with a broad grin and a coffee on the side, he’s happy to spin ten of his best.
