Today we have guitar picks from the legendary performer
Meatloaf
Here's a look at the front and the back of these guitars
Most of these are signed by Paul Crook, the longtime guitarist and musical director for the singer Meat Loaf.
Meat Loaf, born Marvin Lee Aday, was a powerhouse of rock and roll known for his grand, operatic voice and intense theatrical performances. He skyrocketed to global fame with the 1977 masterpiece Bat Out of Hell, which remains one of the best-selling albums of all time. His music, often created in collaboration with songwriter Jim Steinman, blended the raw energy of rock with the dramatic flair of musical theater, producing iconic hits like "I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)" and "Paradise by the Dashboard Light." Beyond his massive music career, he was a versatile actor, appearing in cult classics like The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Fight Club, leaving behind a legacy as a true "larger-than-life" entertainer.
This collection is a remarkable physical record of rock history, featuring a diverse array of guitar picks gathered from some of the most legendary North American tours. Each piece represents a specific moment in time, coming directly from the hands of the most influential touring bands of the last 20 to 40 years. From the thrash metal precision of Megadeth to the grunge-era icons like Eddie Vedder, these picks are more than just gear鈥攖hey are tangible artifacts from the high-energy arenas and stadiums that defined a generation of music.
The significance of these picks lies in their connection to the peak of live performance culture across the continent. Over the past four decades, touring reached a massive scale, and these picks were used by artists who headlined the most iconic festivals and venues in the world. Whether it's a specialty "Batmobile" design or a classic tour-stamped plectrum, having items from bands that shaped the sound of the 80s, 90s, and 2000s makes this a curated chronicle of modern rock鈥檚 touring legac. I'm putting this guitar pic together. Alphabetical order over the next few weeks and months.
