Ah Guitar Techniques ‘hi it’s Guthrie here with ten Al di Meola licks’
I played a Frank Evans arrangement for my first jazz guitar performance out of GT.

Henry, for what it's worth, most print magazines are dead circulation wise. Not reaching many folks. They might exist, but most of the reading is done online.
I know you were asking for guitar mags, but the site called ALL ABOUT JAZZ has more traffic than any other online jazz presence, that was their main goal within the jazz community/industry, and they succeded. They are open to working with jazz musicians with promotion, profiles, reviews, and even streaming artists tracks. Good luck.

By the way, Henry.
I know that you have had an interview on NPR (an American radio station that is nationwide for those of you who don't know) before. Maybe you could get another and promote the CD?

And that trend will only increase: by 2040, nearly 50% of the population in America is projected to live in just eight states out of the 50; 70% of the population will live in the 16 most populous states. 30% of the population will live in the other 34 states. This will create all sorts of interesting dynamics in politics, elections, tax policy, etc.
My doctor is a 10 minute drive away; the grocery store is 5 minutes. My wife's aunts and uncles live in northeastern Montana and going to just about any medical specialist is a 2 hour drive. Their town doesn't even have a full-time doctor; there's one who comes in to do rounds at the hospital one or two days a week or something like that. Going to a full-service large grocery store and stocking up with a month's worth of groceries and other supplies is a similar drive. The population just isn't big enough to support those services.Last edited by Cunamara; 03-08-2020 at 12:52 AM.

Bookstores. Just bought the current Acoustic Guitar issue at the nearest Barnes and Noble.

Congrats on the new CD, Henry. Don't neglect the Audiophile press: The Absolute Sound, Stereophile in the US; HIFI+, HIFI News and Record Review in the UK (amongst others); the Japanese audiophile press. Big following in Japan of US jazz acts. I don't know about distribution in Japan but worth reaching out.
