Jesse's multiple guitars give his listeners the best of both worlds, with romance and excitement all in one great CD.
Bio / Background
This has to be the most "fun" CD I've ever made.
The studio owner (Skip Spane) and I decided to use 6 different guitars in an effort to create that "multiple recording" sound which was invented by Les Paul.
With this in mind - I played each guitar through a "state of the art" synth, which allowed me to reproduce the sounds of all the different instruments - including Piano, Organ, Bass, Strings, etc. It took a lot more time and effort to do it this way - but we are quite pleased with the results. We hope the listeners will feel the same.
When you purchase this CD, you are welcome to email me with any questions and/or comments you may have. I really enjoy reading the feedback from our CD buyers. But most of all ---I Thank You for your support!
Sincerely,
Jesse Lee Johnson
Bio:
From the age of 6, Jesse knew what he wanted to do; play the guitar! Luckily his mother knew about a half dozen chords and from that beginning, he practiced every free moment.
↓ more ↓In his teens he discovered jazz and began studying with a teacher at the University of Oregon. At 19, he decided to "go for it" - loaded everything he owned into his car and headed for Los Angeles. He soon landed a job as a studio musician. There he had the good fortune to meet and work with many popular artists of the time, such a, Roy Orbison, The Righteous Brothers, Bobby Darin, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, James Burton (Elvis Presley's guitar player) and many, many more.
He has worked almost every venue from Las Vegas to Reno to Chicago. "Those casino gigs could be tough." says Jesse. "You had to read all the charts for the different shows. I've met and worked with people like Glen Campbell, Fats Domino, Bobby Darin, The Righteous Brothers, Roger Miller, Little Richard and even the great Chuck Berry."
"The unusual gigs were things like playing background music for an elephant act, or playing banjo behind a comedy team. Still, all in all - I wouldn't trade the experience for anything." "Most of the time it was great fun with great people. And I will always be thankful to those wonderful artists who gave me work. They made my musical career a reality."
