PI in the Sky – Paul Irvine

Can’t help it… Immi is really producing some incredible music.  She did Rollin’ and Tumblin’ with Jeff Beck a while ago, and again on the Live At Ronnie Scott’s DVD. Outstanding. This is her latest output.

And if you get the chance check out the Youtube performance of her doing a live rehearsal with an incredible use of looping and layers of voice and instruments.  Live.  Solo.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25VGdNU3nrU

I can’t believe I never listened to this guy while he was alive! As a guitarist myself, I have a lot of music in the ‘guitar geek’ category… the usual suspects like Al Dimeola, Eric Johnson, Satch and Steve Vai… but I never really got Shawn Lane.  Yikes… what an amazing player… if you have any doubts watch this youtube.

Shawn Lane – Amazing

“Whatever” is her first new CD since Tribal Rage/Momentum ten years ago. Go get it! JenniferBatten.com. If you are local to Portland, OR, Jennifer is playing a one-woman show at Mississippi Studios. This is an amazing opportunity to see one of the world’s most talented and innovative guitarists in an up-close-and-personal setting. MS is a small recording studio with a teeny living room-style performance room. This is a one-off. It could be ten years to the next CD release party!

Just found out… there is a youtube post of one of thenew tracks, Hooligan’s Holiday. It definitely delivers.
