"I had the pleasure to play with Warren on one occasion. It was during a workshop that he held for his students last year. We played about 8 hours that day; I was in heaven. I knew right from the start when he began playing that I was truely amongst greatness. My only regret was that I didn't get to play with him sooner. This is a great CD for anyone who loves clean guitar playing. It is a favorite of mine. I listen to it a lot. I only wish he were still here to make more of it."

If you play jazz guitar this is a MUST

"Warren was one of those hidden masters of the guitar, who shedding the limelight, turned his talents to teaching.
He not only could teach, he could PLAY! His understanding of how the guitar works, was awesome. The influence of Classical music and his native Hawaii, shows up in his compostions on this CD. And his astounding facility on the guitar bursts forward with amazing clarity as he rips through doubletime passages with the greatest of ease. This CD is orders of magnitude below what his abilities actually were, and this is hot stuff. But it is all we have.
I can't believe someone of his talent, did not have 50 CD's
Such is the support of the Arts and jazz in this country.
In the richest country in the world you would think that someone would have stepped up to the plate and have supported his work financially. . . when I met him he was struggling, teaching in the back end of a store. He struggled did it mostly alone and his way. At least we have this recording and his method books to enjoy;I hope for years to come. Buy this CD. The family he left behind will appreciate it I'm sure. RIP Warren."

Incredible

"I took lessons from Warren for a few years, and this CD doesnt even begin to show just how good he is. He could play the hardest licks on this CD while he was talking to you..he was just that good. I heartily reccomend this CD to any jazz lover!
RIP Warren Nunes."
