We are so excited to have the legendary Bobby Vegas with us asd our guest on No Simple Road this week!
Bobby began his professional career at age 15 with Bo Diddley, but he achieved wide attention at age 16 for his distinctive picked and muted bassline on Sly Stone’s “I Get High On You” (from Sly’s 1975 album High On You ). Since then he has contributed his soulful feel and incredibly dynamic playing to a long list of world-class artists including: Billy Preston, Booker T., Paul Butterfield, Joan Baez, Jerry Garcia, Bob Weir, Mickey Hart, Santana , Tower of Power, Etta James, Zigaboo Modeliste, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Jefferson Starship, Babatunde Olatunji, Kitaro, Ronnie Laws, Hubert Laws, Lee Oskar, Melvin Seals, Cold Blood, and Zero with Steve Kimock.
We had an absolute blast talking to this living legend about his new album 'Whatcha Got', what life was like 'back in the day', how he sees his musical career in hindsight, where he's headed now, and a whloe lot more!
