It’s been a loooonnnggg week and I need to relax, so tonight I’ve got a marvelous guitarist for you. Peter Finger was born in Weimar, Germany. He began playing the violin at the age of six and the guitar at thirteen. In 1988, he established both his own music publishing company and the Acoustic Music Records label and has produced dozens of artists. He’s won numerous awards for both his compositions and his playing. His musical style combines elements that cross several genres but leans toward a modern classical style. His combination of open tunings with the use of metal finger picks gives him a unique ringing tone. Hope you enjoy him!
Niemandsland: Very nice single note work. Haunting melody. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rO1obIL_Yv0&feature=related
Vive la vie: Beautiful composition reminiscent of a Parisian café. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHhfBnbdv6A&feature=related

I was recently in Washington, D.C. and had dinner at Old Ebbits Grill, a place with wonderful food (try the crabcakes), and excellent value, especially for this city. But make sure you make a reservation. Instead of dessert, I decided to try a glass of a 2005 "For Love or Money" Two Hands Cane cut Semillon from the Barossa Valley, Australia. Semillons are sweet dessert wines with concentrated flavors. This particular version is made from Semillon grapes that have their canes cut when the flavor is ripe and are then left to slowly dehydrate on the vine. The result is a powerful, seductive dessert elixir. It’s golden in color with fragrant aromas of honeysuckle, jasmine, and tropical fruits. It’s rich on the palate with spiced honey, concentrated apple, peach, apricot, and caramel with a clean persistent finish. I did a bit of research on it back at my hotel and found that Wine Advocate gave it a 96 rating. A glass at Old Ebbits was $12.00 which is a good way to try a wine of this caliber as it ranges between $40.00-$50.00 in stores. But it’s a great wine for sipping and forgetting the cares of the week and it’s classic style melds perfectly with Peter Finger. Enjoy!
Cheers!

Derek Trucks, Susan Tedeschi, & Marquis Phillips Shiraz
Derek Trucks is a Grammy Award-winning guitarist, songwriter, and producer. He’s also the youngest player to make Rolling Stone’s list of 100 greatest guitarists. He began touring with the Allman Brothers Band in 1989 before finally becoming an official band member in 1999. That same year, he met Susan Tedeschi, a blues singer/guitarist and outstanding musician in her own right. Susan has an incredible voice that can range from soulful balladeering to belting blues. I heard her in a solo acoustic performance about twelve years ago in Madison, WI and was blown away. The two married in 2001. Derek continues to play with both The Allman Brothers Band and his own band, but in recent years, Trucks and Tedeschi have toured together billing themselves as the "Soul Stew Revival." I’ve included some of their solo work as well as their collaborations below. Great stuff for kicking off the weekend. Enjoy!

To fully enjoy Susan and Derek, you need something with body and explosive fruit. Try a Marquis Philips 2006 vintage Shiraz from south Australia. I’m not kidding when I say the aroma’s of blackberry & black cherry flood your nose. Its palate has a combination of red current jam, blackberry liqueur , blueberries, and cedar with mild tannins and a long, lingering finish. Robert Parker rated it a 92. At $18.00 it's a great buy, especially since Australia is synonymous with Shiraz and can be quite pricy. Great wine!
Cheers!

Don Alder and Aia Vecchia Lagone
Mid-week and time for a “mellow” break. Don Alder is my featured guitarist for tonight. He has awards galore that include place second at the 2006 Winfield International Finger Picking Championships and winning it in 2007. He has an expansive range of styles as you will hear when you view the videos below. He can range from sweet melody like “The Wall,” to the frenzy of Double Cappucino, which sounds exactly what I feel like after drinking an entire pot of French press coffee. Rather than expound further, I will let you listen to the music.
The Wall: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8HJwTX9LXU&feature=related
Double cappuccino: I never imagined anyoe could capture the feeling one gets after a double, but here it is. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMzjQU5HAAk&feature=related
Ballad: After the previous number, this is just what you’ll need to mellow out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srzJB7muK-U&feature=related

To get you ready for the rest of the week, try a 2006 Aia Vecchia Lagone ($19.00) from Tuscany. On the nose there are aromas of black currents, cherries, and figs. The taste is loaded with more black currents, cherries, and a bit of pie dough with a bit of pepper spice. Feels full bodied in the mouth with solid tannins and a long flavorful finish. A delicious wine to make your mid-week divine. Enjoy!
Cheers!

Jimmy Wahlsteen & Clos du Bois Shiraz
I found Jimmy Wahlsteen while surfing YouTube for new guitarists. Googling him doesn’t give much background information but he apparently made his name as a session musician in Sweden. His guitar playing employs some interesting tunings and his own brand of fingerpicking. He has a new CD out on CandyRat records entitled 181st. What I do know is he’s a fine guitarist. Check it out:

Spring is in full bloom here in Nebraska. Lilacs fill the air with a sweet perfume and my back yard is full of lilies of the valley. Quite the aromatic combination. Since there’s still a bit of chill in the evening, though, I like to put on a light sweater and sit on the deck enjoying a glass of wine while I watch the stars. The 2006 Clos du Bois Shiraz ($9.00) is one of my favorite cheap wines. It’s made like a typical Australian Shiraz, dark purple in color and full of the jammy aroma of blackberries and raspberries. The berries come bursting through on the palate accompanied by spicy black pepper and it leaves an enjoyable tang in the mouth on the finish. Excellent for sipping on a cool spring night while you listen to Jimmy. Enjoy!
Cheers!

Rober Randolph & the Crusher Petite Syrah
Friday night and it’s time to rock. Robert Randolph is a high energy pedal steel guitarist. He began playing the steel guitar in the House of God Pentecostal Church where the instrument is referred to as “Sacred Steel.” He says Stevie Ray Vaughn was one of the main influences on his musical style. He played in several of the Crossroads concerts organized by Eric Clapton and actually toured with the man himself. Also, check out his bassist. The guy can really lay down the funk.

Robert Randolph calls for something with a bit of heft so I suggest a 2008 “Crusher” Petite Syrah. It’s a classic Petite, deep purple, almost black in color with a bouquet that explodes out of the bottle flooding your nose with the aroma of blackberries, toasted walnuts and roses (honest!). The palate is rich with dark berries, cherries, chocolate, and a touch of caramel. It has a soft, silky mouth-feel and a long finish. So, go get yourself a bottle and enjoy your Friday night dancing to the sounds of a heck of a pedal steel guitarist. Enjoy!

Wayman Tisdale & Volver Tempranillo
Wayman Tisdale started out as one of the highest rated high school basketball prospects of 1982-83. He chose to stay near home and attended the University of Oklahoma where he was a first team All American all three years of his college career. He played on the 1984 Olympic team that won the gold medal and was the #2 pick in the 1986 NBA draft after Patrick Ewing. He went on to an all-star NBA career finishing with 12,800 points and over 5,000 rebounds. But along the way, he played bass guitar and developed into a premier smooth jazz bassist and composer. His mellow reminds me or a deep jazz guitar with flowing melodies and toe-tapping rhythms. Sadly, he developed bone cancer in 2007, which resulted in him losing his leg in 2008. It finally took his life in 2009. His music will be missed. Hope you enjoy him.

Accompanying Wayman, try a 2007 Bodegas Volver Tempranillo La Mancha ($14.00). I think this is the first Spanish wine I’ve reviewed and it’s a good one. Deep purple color with a beautiful bouquet of black cherry, violets, and blackberry. Tons of fruit that feels succulent in the mouth with soft tannins, excellent balance, and a long finish. I liked it so much, I went back and bought two more bottles. Both Robert Parker’s wine Advocate and Stephen Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar rated it a 90. I’d rate it a 92 because of the price. A tempranillo with excellent character. Pop the cork, pour a glass, and listen to one of the great smooth jazz bassists of our time. Enjoy!

Martin Simpson & Momo Pinot Noir
Martin Simpson has been one of my favorite acoustic guitarists for decades. He is one of England’s finest folk musicians and his recordings have won several awards. A virtuoso in the realm of Celtic music, he also excels at the blues as you’ll hear on several numbers I’ve included below. His signature sound mixes silky smooth finger picking with soulful slide work. Hope you enjoy him.

Since it’s been a beautiful spring day followed by a gorgeous evening, what could be better than sitting on the deck listening to Martin, sipping a 2008 Momo Pinot Noir from New Zealand ($24.00). The Momo Pinot Noir is a blend of fruit from three Marlborough vineyards with varying soil characteristics. It’s a light wine, perfect for spring with aromas of black cherry, mocha, and hints of spice. The palate is concentrated with succulent dark fruits layered over smoky oak with fine mouth-coating tannins. Very nice wine that perfectly complements the music. Enjoy!
Cheers!
