new greg howe cd


anyone besides me a fan of greg howe? i have most of his cds and feel he was a precursor to guthrie govan, albiet much funkier and with a vocabulary that is more fusion oriented. the latest cd is a nice change of pace after the very jazz/fusion heavy 'extraction' (also excellent however). this one seems to have greg returning to a more rock style (compositionally, lead guitar tonally and phrasing), but of course there is some pretty 'outside' playing in several song. so far i'm digging it. there's an excellent cover of 'tell me something good' which i think really exemplifies the nuances of his style.

Re: new greg howe cd


I like him a lot, but I don't consider him a "precursor" to Guthrie in any way. Guthrie really has his own style, far different than Greg's. I'll have to check this one out though. Thanks for letting us know.

Re: new greg howe cd


Greg is incredible! I wish he was more well-known so we could maybe see him play live. I haven't gotten the new CD but soon will. Extraction was cool but I really dig Introspection. If you ever see Shrapnel's trubute to Jeff Beck, buy it. Greg does an astounding version of "Blue Wind" on that CD. Amazing!

I'm a Greg fan but the new CD doesn't do much for me.
