Brian Ray, Guitarist for Paul McCartney: The Cream Interview

A few days ago, the Nashville Cream did an interview with Brian Ray, who is currently on tour with The Paul McCartney Band. Great interview and comments from Brian... and we've included just the introduction here:

"With Paul McCartney rocking the Bridgestone tonight, Nashville Cream managed to wrangle a last-minute interview this morning with Brian Ray, who's been playing guitar with Macca for about eight years now. As die-hard fans and autograph hounds lined Sixth Avenue North outside The Hermitage Hotel hoping to catch a glimpse of the Beatle in question, Ray sat down with the Cream in the luxurious confines of the Oak Bar for a little tête-à-tête, during which he discussed his solo project, how he landed the McCartney gig and what it's like to tour with the greatest living pop legend.

"Special thanks to Virginia Cannon, who handles artist relations for Voyage-Air Guitar, and who helped facilitate this interview. Voyage-Air makes guitars with folding necks for ease of travel, and (Brian) Ray is an endorser. (Scene managing editor and resident six-string hack Jack Silverman took one of their acoustic models for a quick test-run and gave it a hearty thumbs up.)"
