Well, I call him a guitar god - and so did Chet Atkins, who knew
these things. As do the likes of Bonnie Raitt, Mark Knopfler, and a
few other pretty damn good axe handlers.
It's Amos Garrett I'm talking about, and this is advance
notice that he is doing a mini-tour in Ontario, along with buddies
Ken Whiteley on guitar and vocals and laid-back jokes, and bassist
Victor Batemen.
It's an electric acoustic evening of killer playing, dry wit,
and the bass-est voice in blues. Needless to say, you oughtta be
there - because he doesn't leave his trout stream south of Calgary
unless it's frozen over.
Here's the schedule:
Tuesday Januaary 22 Mermaid Lounge,Hess St., Hamilton
Wednesday January 23 Hugh's Room, Toronto
Wednesday January 24 Booomerz, London
Thursday January 25 Schertzo, Kingston.
That's IT, folks. Not to be missed. It'll probably be
another two or three years before he comes back to this neck of the
woods. Call me if you need to know more: 416-351-1323....
Cheers,
Richard
