Chris talks to esteemed punk and metal guitarist Sami Yaffa, known for his work with Hanoi Rocks and more.

 

About The Guest

Sami Yaffa is a bass guitarist best known for his work in New York Dolls, Michael Monroe’s bands and Hanoi Rocks. He is currently the bassist for the Michael Monroe Band and Compulsions. He also plays guitar in his own band Mad Juana. Yaffa first began playing music in 1977, when he was fourteen years old, with a band called Babblers. He went along with another member of the Babblers and formed a punk rock band, Suopo, in 1979. They did not record any material and stayed relatively unknown even in the Finnish punk rock scene. Around this time Yaffa also played with another Finnish punk rock band, Pohjanoteeraus.
