Here are 16 songs that I loved dearly during a very powerful and beautiful part of my life (before I chose to be a serious classical musician, where music became a proving ground for excellence, rather than the haven of simple joy that it had been during my high school rock band days). I love these tunes still, and can't begin to express the pleasure that I get from playing them. A saner musician might say, "just get a band, you don't have to play these tunes as solos". But after 25 years of being a classical guitarist I am addicted to the high-wire act, as well as to the control over music that a soloist has. These tunes, with all the percussion and counterpoint that I think they need in order to sound real, are harder to execute, solo, than Bach. But a lot more fun..I am a soloist and have acquired some tools during my years in the "classical trenches", and it is just my mission to put them to good use with the music that was my first love. If you enjoy listenin! g to my arrangements half as much as I enjoy playing them, then you will have a big grin for the music and a happy heart for the memories and flavors that they conjure up.
