I'm back. It's been a little while since my last post, but I'd be lying if I said I do this for anyone but myself.
This morning I listen to Kenny Wayne Shepherd's "Ledbetter Heights." This guy is one amazing guitarist. I don't recall his exact age when he recorded this album, but judging by the picture on the cover he's very young. I think he was 16 or 17, actually. Phenomenal feel for any guitarist, much less one so young. He pays a debt of gratitude and obvious tribute to greats like Stevie Ray Vaughan, but instead of copying Vaughan he offers some fresh perspective and shows his own soul.
This one is a keeper. Great tone. Great feel. Cool songs. What else does a guy need in the office early on Tuesday mornings?
