California Guitar Trio: The Echoes Interview
The California Guitar Trio talk about their Echoes CD of the Month, Elegy. CGT has been around for a little over three decades and have recorded 18 albums. They got together in the 1980s while studying with King Crimson guitarist Robert Fripp in his famed Guitar Craft course and played in his League of Crafty Guitarists. They’ve taken those teachings and deployed them across an eclectic range of music that includes covers of Queen and Pink Floyd as well as John Cage and many original compositions. Their latest album may be their most coherent and finely crafted yet, even though it was recorded in AirBnB living rooms while on tour this past winter just before pandemic lockdown. Hear the latest chapter of California Guitar Trio’s journey on Echoes.
Read a review of their album Elegy.

John, you have made a number of references to “pandemic lockdowns.” refrain from calling the house arrest as “lock downs.” (and there was no “pandemic”) It was a voluntary house arrest. Maybe in other countries the people can and are subject to threat govt., but here in the U.S. our rights came from the Constitution. I like to escape the insanity in the world by listening to Echoes, not to be reminded of it.
There is a lot of art and music coming from the pandemic, whether you want to believe in it or not. We don’t mind providing an escape, as long as it isn’t into Bizarro World.
