005 - The Dan Erlewine Recordings
Episode 5
Wednesday, 20 November, 2024
In an historic podcast episode we present "The Dan Erlewine Recordings". Chayton Alo, founder of The Luthier Bench, conducts a 132-minute sweeping interview of a legend in the lutherie industry - Dan Erlewine. Recorded just a few months before Dan's 80th birthday in summer 2024, this podcast is an incredible journey into the life of a man who has defined lutherie education for over half a century. We walk with Dan from his childhood years and learning from his woodworking father through his first record player, first guitar bought, first repair job, and first experience creating video content for luthiers. But, Dan Erlewine is much more than a master repairman and educator par excellence. Did you know that Dan's band opened up for The Cream at The Filmore and The Grateful Dead. And, if that isn't enough, Dan has built a series of historic guitars first for Albert King and then for Jerry Garcia. The story of Dan's life is the story of music, it is the story of education, and it is the story of guitar building. But mostly, the life story of Dan is an unforgettable journey through time, through music, and of course, through the evolution of the guitar industry.
