Cal Collins I had forgotten how great this solo recording was

[deacon Mark]

I happen to put this on I have the CD from way back and this stuff is great. This is one of my all time favorite solo chord-melody playing. He manages to keep the nice melody and not go way out but done rhythmically and so nice. I wonder how they did the recording. Does anyone else think this I am surprised not more press.

formidable playing, but not crazy about the recording tone... a distinctly stereo recording

here's how it was done-

Cal played a guitar made by Bob Benedetto for the session. The guitar was recorded "electric" via the mounted pickup but also "acoustic" with a microphone.
