Paul Shaffer has mastered the art of captivating conversation from his seat at the piano on the Late Show with David Letterman.

Shaffer will be sitting down with some of music's finest including Sammy Hagar, Graham Nash, ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons, Steely Dan's Donald Fagen and more to discuss everything from inspiration and influences to notable songs. Of course, a few impromptu performances will also be thrown into every show. According to the man himself, "In this show I get to go one-on-one with all my favorite recording artists.
