Jeff Healey & The Jazz Wizards with Chris Barber: It's Tight Like That

Read "It's Tight Like That" reviewed by Ivana Ng

In his latest outing, he and his eight-piece band, the Jazz Wizards, conjur up some old magic. ...

Jay Geils/Duke Robillard/Gerry Beaudoin: New Guitar Summit

Read "New Guitar Summit" reviewed by Michael P. Gladstone


This album has a rather presumptuous title, but then the completed effort has produced some pretty good results. Although the three guitarists have known each other for a long time, the only common bond is their New England heritage. Jay Geils founded the J. Geils Band, one of the most popular rock bands of the late ...

Read "More Conversations in Swing Guitar" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan

Duke Robillard is the founder of Roomful of Blues, has played with Eddie “Cleanhead" Vinson, Big Joe Turner, the Fabulous Thunderbirds, Bob Dylan. Herb Ellis, the elder half of this duo, has played with everyone from Louis Armstrong to ...

Ronnie Earl: I Feel Like Goin' On

Read "I Feel Like Goin' On" reviewed by Charlie B. Dahan


On his newly released album, I Feel Like Goin’ On, Ronnie Earl accomplishes an amazing feat: he says so much without singing a lyric. Earl’s new album is ninety percent instrumental and it's easy not to notice--Earl’s guitar speaks volumes and clearer than any lyric. Earl does incorporate vocals on one track entitled ...
