🎼6 November 1966. Happy 55th Birthday πŸ₯³πŸΎ to another #guitarist extraordinaire 🎸(and this time a good vocalist too), Mr. Paul Gilbert, born Paul Brandon Gilbert in Carbondale, Illinois, U.S.A.
He is rated among the 50 best hard rock and heavy metal guitarists and his career spans through 4 decades: he started as member of Los Angeles Heavy⚑️Metal band Racer X in the 1980s, his career had a boost in 1988 when he joined #bassist monster #BillySheehan, #vocalist #EricMartin and #drummer #PatTorpey to found the supergroup Mr. Big, destined to become one of the most famous and acclaimed hard rock bands of the early 1990s ! πŸ€ŸπŸ‘
#PaulGilbert has also released 16 solo albums to date and... I know he likes to come to Venice whenever he can πŸ˜‰
Here's a fantastic #MrBig song of 30 years ago (1991) when they were... so big! 😎 And a young Gilbert abusing his guitar πŸŽΈπŸ˜³πŸ‘‡
