LIONA BOYD - THE FIRST LADY OF GUITAR... Impeccable classical guitar!
DAN EGAN - A fantastic well rounded guitarist. With intense well
written songs. Dan's acoustic songs are soothing and always soulful.
Good for the mind, good for the soul. Dan's electric songs are
absolutely red hot. And can he rip! Whether he's playing acoustic, new
age, or shredding on some killer rock tune, Dan shines. (like a blinding
light) This is one very talented musician!
- This site features a phenomenal guitarist named Rowland. Worthy of
being listed with the masters.(not my opinion,a fact!).This is a must
have for any lover of guitar music. His music evokes every human
emotion.(even a few I didn't know I had). Sample (download & stream) 16
songs from his c. d. "Symphony For Guitar". What makes Rowlands music
so incredible is not only his impeccable playing but the composures are
genius. I have experienced a lot of music for a lot of years and nothing
has reached me like his music. Whether he's laying down a dirty rock
groove or calming you with beautiful acoustic work, you feel every
moment. If you truly love music, this c.d. is priceless. I HAVE THE
C.D. AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!! The NEW DOUBLE C.D. "DE'JA' VU" is
another masterpiece. And I have it. (thanks Rowland! you're way too
kind.) Go to his site and listen to the sound samples. Rowland could
have simply added to the incredible landscape he painted with his first
release. But make no mistake this is not part two of his first release.
The new discs are fresh and new. Rowland has outdone himself this time.
The acoustic disc showcases his softer side with songs that soothe and
relax. Simply put in one word: BEAUTIFUL. The electric disc showcases
the HEAVY, AGGRESSIVE side of Rowland. And boy does he have one. This
disc goes from calming electric to some serious in your face electric.
There are some unbelievable blues too. Simply put in one word: KILLER
MAN (i know that's 2 words. but "MAN" doesn't count) unmistakably
rowland, undeniably great, unbelievable!.....live your life with one
purpose- get this c.d.
MICHAEL HEDGES
- A masterful Belgian fingerstyle player. With 10 CD's and world
recognition as one of the finest. Gilbert is one guitarist you can't
afford not to check out! He has recorded both solo guitar works and with
a band. He incorporates classical, and freestyle jazz (among other
influences) to create a sound and style unique unto himself. His music
is spiritual and calming, to stimulating. The vibe on the songs I've had
the pleasure to experience, transend anything of this earth. A true
original. Simply put, "This Is Pure Genius".

DEL VEZEAU - Acoustic guitarist extraordinaire. Very (very) few artists
today really make me sit back and say wow! But Del Vezeau did just that.
Maybe it was Del's absolute virtuosity of the instrument. Maybe it was
the deep rooted soul and emotion of the music. Maybe it's the roller
coaster ride of influences. Constantly changing and twisting and
winding. I would have to put Del Vezeau up with the masters. The songs
are calming and stimulating at the same time. Two words:"Unique &
Beautiful". Del's mp3.com site

Goes From Playful To Disciplined To Ssssmokin
