That's a killer riff....kinda reminds me of Lenny Kravitz. I guess I'm gonna have to check out some of this guy's stuff.
There's a track on the new album called 'Of The Earth', and features this wonderful off-the-hook guitar riff that reminded me a lot of 'Are You Gonna Go My Way', not melodically, but it serves the same function - a really appealing catchy lead guitar hook that opens the song and permeates throughout it.
I wanted to see Wolfmother when they were on the same bill as Macca at the Hard Rock Calling in London 2010.. but they pulled out because Stockdale was striken with illness and were replaced with The Hives (they were great too!). But I finally got to see them this year when they supported Aerosmith here in New Zealand. By then, Stockdale had already announced that he had gone solo and these would be the final Wolfmother concerts. They were sooo sooo good! The general vibe I got from people who went, all agreed that they were just as impressive as Aerosmith - I can't disagree with that!
There's not much of his solo stuff on YouTube unfortunately (seems to be tightly controlled).. this is one of the original Wolfmother hits - 'Dimension' (keeping the tradition of power trios going thru into the 21st century!)
