    E-ssential Sounds #3

    In this episode eclectic, improvising musician and multi-instrumentalist Eric Wallack discusses his development as an acoustic guitarist. This is the first in a short series of episodes that will address different aspects of my own music. Here I discuss my development as a solo acoustic guitarist through both composition and improvisation. The musical examples I've selected are culled from work tapes and current recordings spanning over twenty years and detail different elements of my growth as a guitarist and musician. Please feel free to drop me a note - I appreciate comments and always enjoy getting hip to new artists & shows! Stay tuned for more E-ssential Sounds and as always, thanks for listening! bhagiti@yahoo.com http://bhagiti.blogspot.com/ Show produced by Eric Wallack

    Improvising guitarist and composer Greg Segal is one of the most consistently exciting musicians in the underground and DIY scene today. In this program Greg holds nothing back in an intensely articulate discussion of his early influences, the nature and practice of improvisation and even divulges some of the secrets of his signature guitar style. Here Greg offers a riveting self-portrait of an uncompromising artist with the highest standards of personal excellence as he discusses his earliest musical experiences, his seminal work with Paper Bag and his current work as one of the premier solo, progressive musicians on the planet. This program contains no musical examples but those can easily be found by clicking the “Sound Clips” link at Greg’s website (http://www.gregsegal.com/). Better yet, interested listeners are encouraged to contact Greg directly through the website and purchase recordings from his vast and amazing catalog. This program produced by Eric Wallack & Greg Segal
