 th Guns N' Roses and the MC5. Who else can claim membership in two of the 
 most life-altering rock 'n'roll outfits to ever exist on the planet? Huh?\
 nBut none of that overshadows the fact this guitarist\, singer and songwri
 ter was a 17-year-old punk from Cleveland whose Hollywood backalley dues w
 ere paid in full. Before joining the Guns N Roses circus. Gilby was Kim Fo
 wley's go-to session guitarist and ghost writer. It was Kim that urged Gil
 by to join Candy\, an established Hollywood band looking for a new guitari
 st. With Gilby now aboard\, Candy signed with Mercury and was on their way
 . Candy was a little early for the Sunset Strip takeover and Gilby's rough
  n' ready guitar style was better suited for the big riff quartet Kill For
  Thrills. Gilby signed as a writer to Virgin America and Kill For Thrills 
 signed with MCA Records\, then a late night call from Slash changed everyt
 hing.\n\nGilby joined Guns in '91. Private planes and diplomatic immunity 
 followed. He appeared on the band's Spaghetti Incident\, Live Era '88-'91 
 and The Greatest Hits albums. Gilby spent years on the Use Your Illusion t
 our in the 90s\, but his proudest moment is the Gilby Rolls mode on the GN
 R pinball machine. If you can get him to talk\, he may admit the 2012 Rock
  N Roll Hall of Fame induction performance was fun.\n\nAfter Guns imploded
 \, armed only with his Les Paul\, Gilby went back to Virgin and launched h
 is solo career. Receiving critical winks for his albums Pawnshop Guitars\,
  The Hangover\, Rubber\, 99 Live and Swag. Recording and/or touring over t
 he lean years with Nancy Sinatra\, Heart\, The MC5 and his old bandmate Sl
 ash's Snakepit\, Gilby even snuck in videos with GNR\, Michael Jackson and
  Fall Out Boy when MTV was de rigeur. Perhaps you saw him starring alongsi
 de Tommy Lee on the CBS TV show Rockstar: Supernova or VH1 Honors with Rob
  Zombie and Ace Frehely ? Clarke currently splits his services with Kings 
 of Chaos led by Matt Sorum and an all-star alumni that features Steven Tyl
 er\, Joe Elliot and Gene Simmons and his solo band.\n\nClarke\, who's an o
 ld school mash-up of Keef\, Johnny Thunders\, and B.B. King\, continues to
  write fist-jacking rock 'n' roll songs with fat choruses\, and appear on 
 stages around the globe. Clarke's last solo record "The Gospel Truth" on G
 olden Robot Records. The lead track of Clarke's last solo record "The Gosp
 el Truth"\, was called "Rock n' Roll is Getting Louder" and he stands behi
 nd that statement! He's also one of the sweetest gents you'll ever meet. H
 e's a guitar hero\, certainly\, but also a gentleman whose heart happens t
 o rush at rock 'n' roll speed.\n\nFacebook: https://go.evvnt.com/2489244-2
