See How We Are is the sixth studio album by American rock band X, released in 1987 by Elektra Records. It was their first album without founding guitarist Billy Zoom, who was replaced by ex- Blasters guitarist Dave Alvin for the album's recording sessions and some live shows.
23 de jun. de 2007 · John Doe, and fellow Knitter (& Blasters guitarist), Dave Alvin deliver a rare early acoustic version of the X track See How We Are (from the X album of the same name).
Alvin served a brief stint as the lead guitarist of the Los Angeles–based alternative rock band X. He left X in 1987 to work on a solo project after the group recorded their album See How We Are. Alvin was also a member of the country folk band The Knitters, an offshoot of X.
By the time the band released its sixth album, See How We Are, Alvin had already left the band, although he played on the record along with Gilkyson and wrote "4th of July" for the band.
25 de nov. de 2008 · Granted, Ain't Love Grand! led to founding guitarist Billy Zoom's temporary departure, but his replacements, Dave Alvin and Tony Gilkyson, fill in admirably. Less raw than Los Angeles , the band's evolution into a true American roots band was clear here.
The voices of John Doe and Exene Cervenka meet in midflight like a pair of drunken larks, and the subject matter is unflinching, honest and intelligent. Some things never change with X. Even a new guitarist (Tony Gilkyson) and a new producer (Alvin Clark) take a backseat to the band’s unique brand of driving, alternative rock.
30 de mar. de 2023 · March 30, 2023. Dave Alvin enjoys the “magic” of playing guitar with his trusty 1964 Fender Stratocaster. Much of that wear was put on by Alvin, with the help of flying beer bottles. When the fretboard was nearly worn out, Alvin’s friend Drac Conley built him the replica that he takes on tour today.
