Guitar Bones

From the outset, Adrian Legg's albums have been critical favorites, showcasing his intricate and elegant blending of country, jazz, folk, rock and classical influences. After a three year creative sabbatical since his last album "Fingers And Thumbs", we are once again blessed with a new guitar project from Legg, entitled Guitar Bones. Adrian returns to simpler roots with this release, featuring solo fingerstyle tracks, the majority of them recorded using an English-made parlour size acoustic and simple miking techniques with a minimum of production. Two tracks in particular, "Old Friends" and "Ghosts In The Hills," stretch playing techniques beyond normal fingerstyle limits and lay down some stiff challenges - emotional as well as technical - for Legg's contemporaries and successors.
