Hello There, Nice To See You
Hey now, welcome to the official Legendary Rich Gilbert Website! It has been a crazy great past few months. Eileen Rose and I went to Italy in February and recorded the next Eileen Rose album (no title yet). And to be honest, it really came out fantastic. We’re still finishing up a few of the tracks but the first single from the record, our version of John Prines Storm Windows, has been released on all the streaming and downloading platforms (Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal, You Tube etc). Check it out! Right now we are aiming for a fall release of the album.
So with that in mind, let me say that next week Eileen and I will be heading to The Netherlands, Italy and the UK for a 3 week tour. It’s been a long time since we’ve been in The Netherlands and The U.K. so to say we are thrilled to be getting back would be a gigantic understatement! You can find all the dates and links to tickets on my Shows page, so if you’re around any of the shows we’d love to see you!
Let me also add that The Zulus last June was even better than we hoped it would be! Thanks to everyone who came out to see us. We also used that show to debut our brand new album, OUTER SPACE!!!!!! That’s right, after 30 years we all got back together and wrote and recorded an album of all new original material, and to be honest, we think it came out pretty good! It’s available on my Store page, just click on the link and you’ll find it along with new T-shirts and a lot of other music.
Meanwhile, I would also recommend checking out my other pages as well, there’s all kinds of things for you to check out here: CDs, Downloads, Show Dates, Guitar Lessons. You can even hire me to play on your next record! I’ve started doing these sessions where people We Transfer me their music files, I load them into my Pro Tools and record a whole bunch of takes for them to choose from, or sometimes they use them all for a glorious sound!!! It’s been great, I love doing it. I’ve also added a page for anyone interested in personal guitar lessons from me. We can do them in person in or around Freeport Maine, where me and my wife Eileen Rose now live, or do them via Skype, Discord, Slack or any video streaming app/site. It’s easy and a great way to share information. I love teaching guitar so if you’re interested check out the page.
While I got you here, I would also like to tell you about my upcoming 4th solo album release. Titled STEEL LIFE, it will feature me exclusively on pedal steel, not a single note will be played on electric guitar! And trust me this is not going to be your typical pedal steel record! I’m putting the finishing touches on it as I write this.
And in the meantime, there’s a big sale going on with all my previous CDs on my store page, I’ve got to make some room for the batch of STEEL LIFE CDs that will be coming in, so take advantage of the low low prices now!
Ok see you around!
