Talk about Firepower. That is, of course, the name of the Judas Priest record that represents guitarist Richie Faulkner’s finest moment with the legendary Birmingham band, one that Richie – also British – has been central to for 11 years now. But that also describes the happenstance that is Elegant Weapons, with Faulkner being bolstered and emboldened by the regal presence of Ronnie Romero—Rainbow, Vandenberg, Michael Schenker—along with Dave Rimmer from Uriah Heep and on drums, Christopher Williams from German Metal veterans Accept.
We chat to Richie about his new band Elegant Weapons and the debut album “Horns For A Halo” plus his work with Judas Priest, working with producer Andy Sneap and taking those long haul flights from the UK.
