A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH AL DI MEOLA
A guitar fret burner plays an intimate solo acoustic set

Al Di Meola is a legend among electric guitarists for his work with Chick Corea's Return to Forever and through a string of solo recordings. But he's been concentrating on acoustic guitar for the last several years, playing his tango inspired world fusion. He has a new electric CD called Consequence of Chaos, but we catch him in an intimate solo acoustic performance in his New Jersey home.

BOB HOLROYD: BACK TO BASICS, AMBIENTLY
A synthesist comes in from the global sampling world to find a sound closer to home

Bob Holroyd has gained a reputation for his ethno-techno sound designs, but on his latest CD, Hollow Man, he returns to more organic sounds and electronically generated landscapes in an album of haunting, electronic spaces bisected by acoustic strings. From his London home, Bob Holroyd talks about the sounds that fill Hollow Man.

RALPH TOWNER: TIME LINES ON 6 AND 12 STRINGS
A legend of finger-style guitar takes us back in time

There are a few jaw dropping names in finger-style guitar playing: Leo Kottke, Tommy Emmanuel, Michael Hedges. But the one who has the jaw-droppers dropping is Ralph Towner. Through his work with the Paul Winter Consort, Oregon, and a string of solo albums on ECM, he has defined acoustic guitar nirvana. In this interview, Ralph Towner talks about his journey.
