Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic record!.......2005-08-11

I'll second the five-star rating for this. It's a phenomenal display of musicianship, style, and technical ability. One of my favorite recordings. Listen to, e.g., "Summer in Central Park," "Yardbird Suite," or "Tea for Two." Wonderful stuff. I'd recommend this highly to anyone, and certainly anyone who's a guitarist or likes guitar-oriented records. (This is a solo recording--no overdubs, accompaniment, etc.) It's truly a shame that a musician of this caliber isn't better known and showered with accolades. He deserves them. Pick this CD up--I guarantee you'll love it.

5 out of 5 stars The Guitar Players' Guitarist.......2005-02-15

Pat Donohue is best known as a member of Garrison Keeler's house band on the wildly successful "Prarie Home Companion" radio program on NPR; he was also acknowledged by the late Chet Atkins as "The World's Best Guitarist "[direct quote from Mr. Atkins]. Atkins is only one of Pat's many influences - one hears the echos of Robert Johnson, Leo Kotke, Merle Travis, Sonny Rollins, Duke Ellingtion and many other musicians in his playing. Along with those influences, Pat's incomparable tone and technique have ensured his place on the Mount Rushmore of finger-style guitarists. This intrumental CD offers a wonderful study of his musicianship, and should be required study for any budding guitarist. How he manages to mimic Booker T.'s organ sound on the "Tequilla/Green Onions" medley remains one of life's happy mysteries . . .
