In a recent interview with The Musician’s Ear, Joe Perry revealed his new solo album is “in the can.” He added: “I just need to polish it up a bit more. I’m looking to release some of it in the new year.”
When asked what gives a riff real staying power, Perry responded: “I think it’s something that people can sort of sing along to. It depends on who it is, but for the average fan, who are really the people you’re playing for, it’s something that’s memorable. When you listen back, say, to The Ventures, or to Duane Eddy, or other popular instrumentalists, those were really simple riffs, from a guitar player’s point of view. One of the greatest examples is the original “Batman” theme song. It’s just three notes, but if you hum that, everyone knows what it is. Everyone who grew up in that era recognizes it. Or the theme to Bonanza, or The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. Those are really simple riffs, but they’re so unique.”
