Questa volta si fa accompagnare dal percussionista di origini indiane Sameer ...

Robbie Basho: The Art of the Acoustic Steel String Guitar 6&12

Read "The Art of the Acoustic Steel String Guitar 6&12" reviewed by Mario Calvitti

by Mario Calvitti

Al momento della sua scomparsa, avvenuta prematuramente nel febbraio 1986 a soli 45 anni, il chitarrista Robbie Basho era già quasi dimenticato. Dopo il boom della chitarra acustica cui lui stesso aveva contribuito nella seconda metà degli anni '60, la sua fama si era progressivamente oscurata, a causa di uno stile troppo avanzato per il suo ...

Tatsuya Nakatani & Shane Perlowin: Anatomy of a Moment

Read "Anatomy of a Moment" reviewed by Dave Wayne

by Dave Wayne

On Anatomy of a Moment, Aleuchatistas guitarist Shane Perlowin joins the legendary percussionist Tatsuya Nakatani for a series of duets that are as perplexing as they are beautiful. Sticking largely to fingerstyle acoustic guitar, Perlowin's controlled and tightly parameterized improvising stands in stark contrast to Nakatani's varied and unpredictable sound experiments. While his playing in the ...

Ozella Music: Nordic Beauty and Beyond

Read "Ozella Music: Nordic Beauty and Beyond" reviewed by Jakob Baekgaard

by Jakob Baekgaard

It is always tempting to explain one story in the light of another, and in the case of guitarist and composer Dagobert Böhm's Ozella Music label, it is inevitable to be reminded of Windham Hill, the record company started by the guitarist William Ackerman in 1976. Like Windham Hill, Ozella started out as one-man project run ...

Yair Yona: World Behind Curtains

Read "World Behind Curtains" reviewed by Eyal Hareuveni

by Eyal Hareuveni

Like his debut, Remember (Anova, 2010), this sophomore release from Yair Yona still features the Israeli as a guitarist paying his debts to the American Primitive and British finger-picking traditions. But the ambitious World Behind Curtains focuses, first and foremost, on Yona the composer. His compositions for an acoustic chamber ensemble move the finger-picking schools into ...

Yair Yona: Remember

Read "Remember" reviewed by Eyal Hareuveni

by Eyal Hareuveni

Yair Yona is a resourceful Israeli guitarist and producer, whose solo debut salutes legendary and innovative finger-picking guitarists from both sides of the Atlantic such as John Fahey, Leo Kottke and Bert Jansch. But Yona does not shy away from updating these guitarists' influential legacies and sounds, with references to modern indie post-rock groups and guitarists ...

Robbie Basho: Bashovia

Read "Bashovia" reviewed by Derek Taylor

by Derek Taylor

Robbie Basho had all the requisite trappings of a musical eccentric. So states John Fahey in his posthumously published sleeve notes to this second compendium of the enigmatic guitarist’s work for Fahey’s own Takoma label. While Fahey’s reminiscences often poke fun Basho’s fabricated persona (and ironically cite several critiques that could just as easily be leveled ...
