Recommendations
Reviews
referencing Open Letter (LP, Album) ECM 1462
*** noteworthy. Another worthwhile outing for fans of 12-string guitar instrumentals, sometimes solo, sometimes with drum, adding electronics on some selections, mostly original compositions, but also beautiful versions of "I Fall in Love Too Easily," and Bill Evans'"Waltz for Debby." If the idea of using synthesizers and ddrums on some cuts doesn't scare you off, this is another worthwhile listen for fans.
