Lincoln Brewster

Lincoln Brewster's new track Today is the Day is well worth a listen folks. It is not in the UK just yet but stop on by his myspace for a listen. If you are in the USA click into iTunes here and get it purchased. HIs spell as lead guitarist for Steve Perry of JOURNEY in the mid 90's is only one of the cool things about this guy but that aside he really is a great musician, check him out.

Im a Bass player but......

i do love guitar! I started out as a guitar player and switched to Bass because, well i was a hack so taking two strings away seemed like a good idea! My Bro Stephen is a fantastic guitar player, he plays a Martin Acoustic, an expensive one that i have only touched about twice! Anyway i read a great article here about the legendary Martin Brand, it is very interesting but the point of this post was to ask a question that someone posed as a comment to the article.

Who is your favorite Guitarist?

I need to have a think about this and will likely give about 3 or 20 different possible answers!

Foy Vance MTV sessions

A month just could not go past without me mentioning Foy Vance, but he is on the up and up and i like to give a heads up to our finest talent as often as i can. So, you need to watch these sessions from MTV, they are typically brilliant and full of passion. So, Check these out.

Also you can see what the guy is up to in the first part if 2008 by reading Foy's blog. Here is a quote "I can't stand the new music coming out of the Christian sector (if that's what you call it?)" ................stop by to see what he is talking about!

weekly classic no:2

This is appropriate in a week when i have been obsessing about Levon Helm a tad. This clip is the beginning and also the end of The Last Waltz by The Band. It is the simply the Greatest Rock & Roll film ever, all others could not compare to this masterpiece & the opening scene? It is one the coolest openings to any film ever...........did i mention that Martin Scorsese directed the film?
