Free Music Review: Inspired Fingerstyle Guitar Renditions of Beatles Songs
Hit: 4 Stars
As a former member of Paul McCartney's latter-day Wings (he appeared on Back to the Egg in 1978), it is only natural that the classically trained Laurence Juber would eventually record a collection of Beatles songs.Juber covers songs from all of the Beatles except Ringo--"Octopuses Garden" would have been a nice addition. With most of these songs, Juber uses altered tunings. Overall, these fourteen acoustic solos, showcase his formidable fingerstyle guitar skills.
I first heard Juber as a solo artist last year when I picked up a cutout copy of his second album Naked Guitar and was stunned by the beauty of his playing. When I saw this loving musical and artistic tribute to the Beatles (Baby Boomers will recognize the cover), I knew this had to be my second purchase. I wasn't disappointed! RECOMMENDED
Free Music Review: percussive guitar
Hit: 4 Stars
I've grown old listening to Beatle's music in all forms. Juber plays beautiful rendtions of all the songs on the album especially Let It Be and Martha, My Dear. His searing solos rock you like none that I've ever heard, but he overdoes it with the percussion guitar on almost every number. I wish I could tell Larry himself to leave the percussion to the drum corps.
