Adrian Belew: From Zappa to Bowie to King Crimson to BEAT | Sixty Scales and the Truth

If I were ever banished to a deserted island and could only bring one artist's complete discography, it would be Adrian Belew's. Why? Because then I'd have music from Frank Zappa, David Bowie, Talking Heads, King Crimson, Nine Inch Nails, Paul Simon, and of course, his own incredible solo albums.For me, Belew is the complete musician: he sings beautifully, plays otherworldly guitar, and writes stunningly beautiful and fascinating songs. He's someone who dares to color outside the lines. Or better yet: someone for whom there are no lines at all."You better make sure there's electricity on that island," Belew said right at the start of this candid conversation. It set the perfect tone for a wonderful discussion that I truly treasure, and I hope you'll get as much out of it as I did.
