Welcome. My name is Richard Riley. I am a damn good guitar player. I've been playing guitar since I was thirteen and making a living at it (on and off) since I was seventeen. Over time I've bumped with a Ska legend, a Goth popstar and a number of Electro Pop tinkerers. I've held backstage court with mod revivalists and argued with punks and managers. I narrowly missed being adopted by Robbie and thrown out by Jason. Lydon didn't get me. I've shared credits with Tilda Swinton. I've seen addicts in Amsterdam and gunfights in Berlin. I sat at Lennon's feet and I slammed punk rock guitar in a shooting gallery in Bavaria. Someone said I was the best they ever heard but forgot to take a phone number. Along the way I took time to help start a magazine or two and write a few books. 
But the guitar is my first love, I still play like I mean it.
