About Robin Nolan: For The Love Of George
When one of the world’s most celebrated gypsy jazz guitarists reworks the world’s greatest bands music, magic can happen!
George Harrison was a fan and friend of Robin Nolan, one of the world’s leading authorities on Gypsy Jazz Guitar. Harrison even named him as one of his favourite guitarists!
Nolan has a new instrumental album out on The Harrison’s ‘Dark Horse Records’ and was recorded using three of George’s famous Beatles guitars, the Gibson – the only guitar used on every Beatles album, the Spanish Ramirez used on And I Love Her, and the Rickenbacker used on the “A Hard Day’s Night” album!
This is the first time these guitars have been recorded since the 70’s.
Robin will be playing songs from the new record, some original compositions and of course some favourite gypsy jazz classics!
The line up also features UK guitar virtuoso Chris Quinn often seen alongside gypsy jazz royalty Stochelo Rosenberg and Paulus Schäfer and Tom Moore on bass, well known as a regular member of the Remi Harris Trio.
If you love real acoustic music do not miss this one! You can expect some of the hottest guitar playing you’ve ever heard…
“In these days of ‘cacophony’ it’s great to hear some proper music” George Harrison
“Robin Nolan is so amazingly good.” Bill Wyman
“Robin plays a mighty fine guitar!” Willie Nelson
