    I've always enjoyed Chris Isaak's music. I was unaware that, about 9 years ago, he released an album called "Beyond the Sun" in which he covers some of the classic songs from the Sun Studios - "Pretty Woman," "I Walk The Line," and a host of others.

    I've not been able to find them on Spotify or Apple Music, but if you look around on Youtube, they're there.

    There's a playlist to the right - give it a shot, you geezers.

    "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                        What do you think of the Joe Pass?

                        I'm humbled by his ability, which is clearly immense, but I've never really been able to connect with solo jazz guitar - there's just not enough tonal variety for me to listen to it on its own. As part of a bigger band, it's fine.

                          He's been called the "Paganini of guitar."

                          Yeah, it's a bit difficult. His meanderings seem to be journeys away from the "tune" and I found myself wondering where the HELL he's going with it. When he gets back to the tune, it's almost a relief.

                          It's almost like Art Tatum, but without as much coherence.

                                    Really enjoying this performance. One of the CSO guest conductors said never trust a radio symphony orchestra - but this performance and the recorded sound are exemplary.
