Steinar's CD, "Southern Moon Northern Lights", keeps getting very favorable reviews. Here's a new one, from the June issue of "20th Century Guitar" magazine:
Quote: |
In 2006 Norway-based guitarist Steinar Gregertsen released a relaxing CD that features his acoustic and electric lap steel guitar on a number of instrumental and vocal tracks. With a multitude of lap steel guitar complexities, track 8, "Poet On The Radio" is pure guitar genius. A swampy, bluesy and rootsy mostly instrumental lap steel album, Southern Moon, Northern Lights combines Steinar's love of guitar music-from the Mississippi delta to the Norwegian fjords. |

I agree, "relaxing" was a bad choice of words. A nice review overall though. |

I have no idea what the reviewer's been smoking, but I want some of it.....
Happy with the review though, it's a bit weird to sit here in "limbo-land" and try to reach an audience that I know is out there... somewhere....
