Voyage of The Troubadour
by Jack Gates —
The CD is inspired by the music of Brazil, Afro-Cuban and jazz.
Enjoy the sounds as Gates takes his music through the realms of sparse acoustic New Age-style guitar improvisations to the sounds of an upbeat rhythmic Latin jazz.
You will make stops in-between on tunes featuring just guitar and vocals, an electric-guitar ensemble and various combinations of acoustic and electric guitars, mixed with singing, bass and drums, often with Latin-music stylings.
