This CD is my GRAMMY pick for BEST POP INSTRUMENTAL PERFORMANCE and you know I won't steer you wrong! Anyone fans of Pat Matheny , Jimi Hendrix, Brian Culbertson, Herbie Hancock, Earl Klugh, Esperanza, Diane Reeves, David Benoit, Marcus Miller, Grateful Dead - or anyone who practices yoga or meditation, or listens to jazz, guitars, progressive jazz, ambient or new age music and/or are fans of- they will love this CD!
Have you ever seen him live? He is AMAZING - he hasn't really had a major release in like 15 years so I was really excited to pick up a copy of "State of Nature". It's truly brilliant (as is he) - you know he plays like 4 parts at the same time? His technique is called "tapping". You can find a bunch more about it on the web. Well anyway, this new album "State of Nature" is all about the ambient sounds of nature and only Jordan can truly capture the sound of "a breeze" and then turn it in into something amazing like the "Ocean Breeze" cut on this album. He definitely gets better and better growing within his music. Here's a link to a video interview - very interesting to see the "tapping" technique in action as he plays 2 guitars at the same time!
