REVIEW "Emotion and Expression, Gerhard's ability to execute is always at the service of the myriad moods of the blues." --Dan Forte (Vintage Guitar Magazine) Through crisp, virtuosic fingerstyle guitar playing laced with feelings mainly centered on quiet jubilation, soloist Gerhard takes listeners to a special place in this collection of original blues and traditional gospel. The Grammy winner dedicates "Avalon Train" to Mississippi John Hurt and "Either Way She Walks" to Tampa Red, but he's telling only his own lively stories on strings. Throughout the 14 -song program, he receives high marks in tonal control, clarity, choice of tempo and creative use of open tuning. --DOWNBEAT Magazine Guitar Wizard Ed Gerhard turns his attention to the blues on Sunnyland, a fine collection of instrumentals with the warm , relaxed feel of a late summer evening. Gerhard coaxes a mellow tone from his instruments (mainly Martins), fingerpicking and sliding his way through a few spirituals, including "Amazing Grace" and "Just a closer walk with Thee", and a raft of his own compositions. Fans of acoustic music will appreciate these subtly masterful , heartfelt performances. --Blues Revue Aug/Sept '07 ABOUT THE ARTIST Known the world over for his stunningly beautiful original compositions and arrangments of popular tunes for solo instrumental acoustic guitar Ed Gerhard won a GRAMMY for his contribution (MOON RIVER) on the "Henry Mancini: Pink Guitar" cd.
