The musician brings his 1959 Fender Stratocaster guitar to the studio and tells John how the instrument has been the bedrock of almost every record that he worked on, and acquiring the nickname 'The Hitmaker'. Nile also discusses his bohemian upbringing in 1950s New York with his mother and stepfather, who were both drug users
