Guitarists worth hearing (and influences upon me):
|
-
Steve Howe
Probably the best overall guitarist in the world and longtime member of Yes
-
Greg Lake of 70's progressive rock group -- Emerson, Lake, and Palmer. A great songwriter, vocalist, guitartist and bassist.
-
Larry Carlton
A studio giant, gone solo for many years now. Believe me when I say, there's no mistaking the Carlton tone.
-
Pat Metheny
A living legend among jazz-rock guitarists. Never a doubt in his mind what he wanted to be.
-
Lee Ritenour
Captain Fingers ... Another studio giant, gone solo for many years now.
-
Billy McLaughlin
A tremendous new age talent from Minnesota. Such rich melodies rise forth from his two hands on the neck technique, combined with alternate tunings.
-
Peter White
The more I hear this guy, the more I like him. You will too.
-
Howard Morgen
A friend, mentor, world-renown instructor and arranger. Made me much better musician and guitarist.
