Ο έξοχος Julian Lage, πρόσφατη σχετικά ανακάλυψη του Gary Burton και ένας από τους καλύτερους κιθαρίστες της γενιάς του, έχει ένα ιδιαίτερο τρόπο να αναμιγνύει τα χρώματα της jazz, του blues, του hillbilly και της country …και μια απαράμιλλη τεχνική την οποία προς τιμήν του σπανίως επιδεικνύει. Τον ακούμε σε ένα κομμάτι από το περσινό “συναισθηματικό του άλμπουμ” κατά βάσιν με covers από το American songbook.

✻

The excellent Julian Lage, a relatively recent Gary Burton‘s discovery and one of the best guitar players of his generation, has a unique way of mixing jazz, blues, hillbilly and country colors …and a breathtaking technique which, to his honor, seldom demonstrates. We hear a song from his recent “sentimental album”, basically of covers from the American songbook.

Enjoy!

Stay Safe!

As always, I’m happy to hear your thoughts, however I’d highly recommend a direct dialogue with the …’source’ so please visit Oannes’ page where you can also listen to the song ! 😉

Together we have a band MK-O [the music of Marina Kanavaki & Oannes]. So, it’s my pleasure to share with you his [and sometimes mine] musical selections. • Do visit his site. He has my highest recommendation!
