Transmission
Johnny Marr and his guitars

This week on the show, I’m extra psyched to spotlight who just might be my all-time favorite guitarist: Johnny Marr. He recently released a new guitar book called Marr's Guitars, so we're going to celebrate on the program by playing the material he used many of those collectible guitars on, from his work as a member of the Smiths, the Cribs and Modest Mouse, to his solo work in collaborations with legendary acts like Talking Heads and Kirsty MacColl. Whether you're a guitarist or not, I promise — or at least I think — you'll like most everything you're going to hear this Thursday night.
