Description

A soulful collection of slide guitar instrumentals, both new and classic, all recorded in Rick Vito's revered slide guitar style.

Grammy-nominated guitarist, singer and producer, Rick Vito is perhaps best known as a member of the legendary supergroup Fleetwood Mac (1987-1991). His guitar work and songs are featured on their albums, 'Greatest Hits,' 'Behind The Mask, 'The Very Best Of Fleetwood Mac,' 'The Chain,' and the live concert DVD, 'Tango In The Night'.


He later partnered with Mick Fleetwood to form the Mick Fleetwood Blues Band feat. Rick Vito. Shortly after the release of their CD, 'Blue Again,' Vito was nominated for a 2010 Grammy Award in the 'Best Traditional Blues' category as both artist and producer.


Of particular note, Rick's now iconic slide guitar solo on Bob Seger's 'Like A Rock,' has been heard and heralded by untold millions, both on Seger's hit albums and as the guitar voice on the Chevy truck TV commercial ads which ran over ten years.


His solo albums began with Atlantic Records in 1992, after which he began performing worldwide with his own band. His unique guitar work has also appeared on hundreds of recordings by such legendary Rock & Roll and Blues Hall of Fame artists as Bonnie Raitt, John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers, John Fogerty, Little Richard, Leon Russell, Boz Scaggs, John Prine, Delbert McClinton, Roy Orbison, Jackson Browne and scores of others.


Vito is also the recipient of the W.C. Handy Blues Award for the song of the year, 'It's Two A.M.' recorded by Shemekia Copeland.


A designer of Art Deco and Modernistic guitars, Rick's stunning 'Rick Vito Soul Agent' Signature model guitar is currently available from Reverend Guitars. This is the fourth edition of Reverend Signature models bearing Rick's name and design features.


In 2020 Rick appeared alongside Christine McVie (in her final performance), Billy Gibbons, Pete Townsend, David Gilmour, Bill Wyman, John Mayall and a host of other musical luminaries in 'Mick Fleetwood & Friends Celebrate the Music of Peter Green' concert filmed in London, now available on CD and DVD.
