Guitars Unlimited

Guitars Unlimited
 

We were in a car, travelling from gig to gig. The radio turned down to a background as we endlessly talk of our love …. Music.
Suddenly the conversation stops, a strange silence, eyes flick to oher eyes, a lot like a sudden close encounter sci-fi scene in a movie.

The volume is slowly and deliberately turned up. The music that had stopped us in our tracks of Jazz – Blue history, was of the sound of many guitars (5 lead guitars!). They sounded so definitely like Ellington or Basie – lots of guitars, but all playing single notes only, making up gorgeous chords of a big band sound. Completely unique.

These guys were from Paris – they gathered together, every once in a while, from their own individual music careers to solemnly conjure up some pieces of total original magic.
When listening to Guitars Unlimited, close your eyes and imagine what you are hearing in front of you. This is how they work, in a line, mostly first takes and NO OVERDUBS! To see them live takes your breath away.

It is sad that so many years have passed and so few know of them. But it is happy and gives us great joy as musicians, to have the Jazzee Blue label finally bring them to the public.
Believe me, you thought that maybe you could play the guitar… till you heard Guitars Unlimited.
