Some of the songs on the new album are some of my favourite songs she has done in a long time: Falling Free, Some Girls, Iâm Addicted.
I think thereâs great songs on there. A great overall album.
Itâs kind of dark and I like that.
âAmerican Lifeâ is my favourite album of hers. It got kicked around a little bit, but itâs kind of dark and I like that kind of stuff.
One of the great things about Madonna is that sheâs not like âhereâs your part, you play this.â We all kind of play together and she utilizes everybodyâs unique talent. That kind of creates everything.
I think thatâs one of the secrets of her success.
Everybody influences each other and you always take something from that.

One of my first studentsâ¦It was Guyâs assistant at the time, he just said âI need to get lessons for my bossâ. So, I drive up to the house and Madonna was in the front yard playing with Rocco. I was like âWhat am I getting myself intoâ. Iâm like âHi, Iâm here to see Guyâ. So I started teaching him, and from that I started teaching her.
A month after teaching her how to play the guitar, she invited me to play with her on The David Letterman Show. From there on, I just kept teaching her and then she was going to go on tour.
She said âIâm going to need a guitar player, you want to play guitar for me?â
Iâve been with her ever since.
