I've been playing solo guitar since the early days at the Shepherd Restaurant in Encinitas in the late 1970's. I'd pull in on Sunday mornings, eat some buckwheat pancakes and then take off with the guitar for the next 3 hours exploring the world of six strings morphing into an orchestra. Joe Pass and Lenny Breau were early heroes along with Chick Corea's solo piano work. The journey, with just me and the guitar, has continued through the years but it's finally taken me 'till now to record a set of songs in this solo setting. What took so long? Solo guitar is one of the most challenging formats to play in and well, maybe I wasn't ready until now. I've still got a lot to learn but the cool factor is that it's a joy just being on the ride.
