"Martin Taylor is primed to make a long-awaited splash on American shores." -BILLBOARD Giltrap & Taylor brings together leading folk guitarist Gordon Giltrap and jazz virtuoso Martin Taylor for an exceptional album ? a reissue from two giants in the world of guitar, Giltrap & Taylor has been digitally remastered and includes four bonus live tracks never before released! Giltrap and Taylor represents a true marriage of minds, where diversity in style and approach provide a lodestone of creativity ? and none of its enchantment has been lost in the eleven years since its original release! Martin Taylor gave his first public performance in a music shop window at the age of eight, and hasn?t stopped stunning audiences since. He came roaring out of the same musical tradition that brought us the genius of guitar players like Joe Pass, George Van Eps, Chet Atkins and Lenny Breau and, by his early twenties, was touring the world with jazz violin legend Stephane Grappelli. A south London baby-boomer, Gordon Giltrap gained inspiration from the folk greats of the sixties ? Bert Jansch, John Renbourn, Davey Graham and more ? yet takes their finely-honed fingerstyle technique to even greater heights.
