Today's fingerstyle guitarists, like Don Ross, follow in the footsteps of such modern guitar 1)pioneers as Chet Atkins, Leo Kottke and John Fahey. Their roots run deep, all the way back to the blues, 2)ragtime, country and gospel that sprang from the banks of the Mississippi River and the back 3)porches of the Appalachian Mountains. Fingerstyle guitar even has its roots in Celtic music, 4)captured by hu--and-and-wife duo Al Petteway and Amy White.
From the guitar fingerstyle2, Al Petteway and Amy White play ground.So what is fingerstyle guitar? According to Fingerstyle Guitar magazine editor John Schroeter, it's "a technique that uses the fingers of the right hand to individually 5)pluck the strings rather than a flat pick to strum or pick them. Melody," says Schroeter, "combined with independently moving bass lines creates a complete, almost 'orchestral sound.'"
"Hold On To Forever" is by Minnesota guitarist Billy McLaughlin, who appeared on Narada's 1996 release "Guitar Fingerstyle." Also making an 6)encore appearance on "Guitar Fingerstyle 2" is London-native Laurence Juber.
Laurence Juber arrived at his latest venture into solo acoustic guitar by way of pop and rock's biggest names. For three years he was the lead guitarist for Paul McCartney & Wings, and he's appeared on albums with Air Supply, Belinda Carlisle and the Monkees. Juber's tune "Fall Of A Sparrow" comes from his 1999 album "Altered Reality."
The new 7)compilation "Guitar Fingerstyle 2" is, as John Schroeter describes it, "an 8)acoustic road trip with plenty of 9)detours and scenic side trips." Also featured on the 16-song set are guitarists Alex DeGrassi, Stephen Bennett, Daniel Schwartz, Dean Magraw, Muriel Anderson, Peppino D'Agostino, Benjamin Woolman and Kentucky-born Pat Kirtley who wrote and performed "Gone Fishin.'" |
