In Episode 1 the spotlight is put on Devon Allman, Tommy Emmanuel, and Monte Montgomery.

Pete Francis

  • Jack Pearson, David Grissom and Lee Roy Parnell. The first 2 played with the Allman Brothers for a bit and Jack Pearson handled Duane’s parts with deftness and taste. david Grissom is the guitar player on most of Joe Ely’s records, among others. Check out his playing on Ely’s “Settle For Love” or “Live At Liberty Lunch”, as well as with the late, great Austin band Storyville. And while you’re at it slip on any CD by Lee Roy and listen to his playing. There’s an evening of great guitar listening!

  • ERIC TESSMER!!! Blues Rock Guitarist out of Austin, TX. Hands move faster than the speed of light, always a blur to watch him play. He has 3 albums and two EPs. First time I saw him 1 1 years ago, it would love at first sound. They’re doing more touring across the USA lately. Mind-blowing, jaw-dropping Blues/ Rock/ Psychedelia. It’d be great to see you do a segment on Eric Tessmer!

  • Mike Brookfield (Ireland). https://www.mikebrookfield.com/ Two brilliant blues/rock albums under his belt. ”Love breaks the fall” and a new release “Brookfield”. See him live if you get the chance, great mix of the blues classics and originals.
