Dan Huff. Late to the party.

[mk5]

I have Apple music and just play random stuff when I work out. The other day I had the Over the Top soundtrack playing, because I love 80s soundtracks, and Meet Me Halfway by Kenny Loggins comes on. I have always dug that greasy delay-soaked solo and I see that it was done by Dann Huff. I don’t know why I had thought Tim pierce played that.

He was always a huge topic/influence on HRI back in the day, but I had never gotten into strictly studio musicians and I never really got that one In My Dreams song they only ever play on Hair Nation from Giant.

But I decided to peel back some layers and see his discography—the dude plays on so many memorable tracks and scores, like Top Gun for instance.

Then it hit me — I have been a Dann Huff fan for years and didn’t even realize it!

Cool interview/hang here with him.

I never liked that 20 rack units into the patch bay rack tone, myself. But a Giant, pun intended, in
the industry for sure.

I've been a HUGE Dann Huff fan since the first time I heard "Last of the Runaways" CD ! released in 1989

Dann has a MONSTER list of credits to his name as guitarist, vocalist, producer and composer , etc.
