Joe Perry, Johnny Depp Appear On Steve Hunter's New Album

07/12/2013
. (Gibson) Guitarist Steve Hunter has recorded with everyone from Alice Cooper to Lou Reed. Now, Hunter has a solo album out, and the release features an array of blues music that first inspired him to pick up the guitar.

The Manhattan Blues Project offers a collection of special guests, including Aerosmith's Joe Perry, actor Johnny Depp, Chickenfoot's Joe Satriani and former King Crimson bass player Tony Levin.

In a video interview promoting the record, Hunter says he wanted the new collection to reflect his love for both the blues and New York City.

"Most albums I hear in regards to New York generally [are] jazzy, which is cool, but I wanted to do something different," Hunter stated in the video. "I wanted to do something in a bluesy way, because I kind of saw the more soulful part of Manhattan." more on this story
