White Guitar Sessions - It's about the music!

I was most recently blown away at the raw talent showcased by Bobby-O in White Guitar Sessions... I won't get into what it is here, you can read his blog, but I will say this listener's view. It's not too often that a song can mean so much that you feel as though you've lived it... that is what Bobby-O has done with this "project". The beauty therein is nothing short of spectacular. I for one, believe in true musicianship... something that is natural, not taught (basically, you got it or you don't). even with that stance, i still believe that you can learn something from anyone, guitarists learning from drummers, drummers learning from bassists, bassists learning from pianists and the circle keeps growing, and it is all interchangeable. Music is something that captures the heart of people, it speaks a language that talks to your soul, something that even regular conversation can't uphold. It brings smiles to your face, tears to your eyes... it evokes precious memories. Fortunately, I have the privilege of being associated with some of the best musicians/songwriters I have ever met. Josh, Jadey, Bobby-O, Ben Cartwright (not from bonanza), Keilan, and D.C. Washington... not to mention the countless others that are in the area... I strongly encourage you to listen to Bobby-O "White Guitar Sessions" and be blown away.
