Six Strings North of the Border

I have spent the last two days listening to this new Borealis relase, every chance I get. This album is a treat! It is a vertibale feast for the acoustic 6 string guitar lover. There are 15 fine tracks, from 15 acoustic guitar masters - superbly recorded and presented, and our own Mudcatter Rick Fielding kicks ass with great arrangement of Hesitation Rag, a fine finger style blues number that compliments this collection beautifully. It one of my favorites on the album!

There is some variety of musical styles represented here, actually, for acoustic music connoisseurs - there is a wide variety. There are some lovely solo instrumentals in open tunings, some Celtic and Celtic style melodies, some blues/jazz tunes, and more.

Congrats to Rick and to Borelais for this great record. I hope y'all get a chance to add this CD to your collection, and I'd love to hear the thoughts form those of you who have already been listening to this fine album.
