Has anyone heard this album? It sounds great! Fantastic playing and recording - very punchy and I enjoyed almost all the songs.

That’s a fine album. Eric is a wonderful guitar player and a nice guy. He’s the one who turned me on to aLaska finger picks.

Eric is indeed a wonderful player and nice guy. I've got his first three, but not that one. Sounds like I quickly need to correct the error of my ways. Lol... I thoroughly enjoy listening to Eric.

Here's Coltrane's "Equinox," the opening track...

Yes, a superb album. I have all his albums and the only one I don't love is the one with the drums, I can't remember what it's called because I don't play it very often.

I see 3 albums on Spotify, are there only three?

No, he had some earlier ones and they were fabulous. Check out his website. And there was one, "For Lulu," that I no longer see there. Just drop him a note and ask. He may have copies for you.

Here's his forum profile.

There are two earlier albums that don't seem to be available on his website, one is "for lulu", they are both excellent. He is very approachable, if you send him an email he will tell you if they are still available somewhere.
