Frank Gambale
Brave New Guitar
The Story
"Brave New Guitar" is Australian guitarist Frank Gambale's first solo album. This is a classic from an historical point of view as well as a sonic one. Songs such as "Credit Reference Blues", "Spending Sunday With You" and "Fe Fi Fo Funk" put the world on notice that a new guitar monster was on his way. Gambale's noted sweep picking technique is very evident even on this early recording. Paul Kohler at the All-Music Guide says it all when he states, "This debut album features brilliant playing." "Brave New Guitar" is a must for any serious Gambale collector.
