Summary
Today I sit down with Keyboardist Dizzy Reed of Guns n Roses and talk all about his career in Rock n Roll.
Dizzy began his GNR journey back for the studio sessions for what would become
the Use Your Illusion records and the Spaghetti Indecent era.
He is the longest running member of GNR besides Axl Rose.
Dizzy is also a member of the Rock n Roll Hall Of Fame.
Dizzy's has a new solo record called Rock n Roll Chose Me which is out right now and you can also get it on Vinyl.
Check out Guns N Roses all summer out on tour including the Rose Bowl in Pasadena Calif.
Thank you so much for your continues support over the last 13 years.
