154 - Peter Margolis (Collecting Loud History) In episode 154 of “Have Guitar Will Travel”, presented by Vintage Guitar Magazine, host James Patrick Regan speaks with Author, Director and Marshall amplifier collector as well as guitarist, Peter Margolis. In their conversation Peter tells us about his new project, a book documenting his and his business partner Brian Ranks collection of vintage Marshall amplifiers titled “Collecting Loud History”. Peter describes how his small collection of vintage Marshall’s was destroyed in the ’94 LA earthquake and that led him to his partner in the collection Brian Ranks through pedal board manufacturer Bob Bradshaw and from there the collection grew. Peter tells us about his early collection and his band in the ‘80’s and what Hollywood and the greater LA area were like at that time. Peter tells us about his tv and film career starting on the Young and the Restless, Soap, the Voice and eventually doing a documentary on his friend and teacher Randy Rhodes. Peter talks about his very first concert Quiet Riot and how that led to taking lessons and becoming friends with Randy Rhodes. Peter tells us about purchasing guitar parts from Grover Jackson and his collection of Charvels as well as his other guitars within his collection. Peter tells us about Randy Rhodes before Ozzy and his tapes of his lessons and note books of Randy’s notes to him and describes a bit of the documentary he made of the pre Ozzy relationship between Randy and singer Kevin Dubrow from Quiet Riot. Peter describes the pre “hair band” era of Hollywood was like. Finally Peter tells us how the LA fires changed his outlook on keeping his collection in the LA area there and where he’s planning on taking it and plans for a volume two of the book.
