ALICE COOPER Guitarist NITA STRAUSS - "It Really Helps You Grow As A Musician To Not Just Limit Yourself To One Genre"
February 7, 2015, 9 years ago
Metal Life Magazine had the privilege of interviewing a variety of musicians during Monster Cable's press event for the release of the Hired Gun documentary. Alice Cooper guitarist Nita Strauss is featured in audio clip below about discussing her participation in the film, her love for thrash metal, and how she learned to play funk music in a matter of days.
In a video from Guitar World, Strauss shows you how to play Cooper's late-1970 hit, "I'm Eighteen".
As Strauss points out in the video, Cooper's original studio version of the song doesn't offer much in the way of a solo section. As a result, Strauss wrote her own parts and solo section for the tune; essentially, this is what she plays when Cooper and the band perform it live.
Strauss' talented guest stars in the video are courtesy of Ibanez and Blackstar.
