Description
Blonker, Dieter Geike:
In 1979 "blonker" turned from a regular group into a one-man-project. Dieter Geike, the man who had written "Indigo" and defined the sound of the band with his immaculate guitar playing, carried on alone and started a quiet, but impressive solo career.
Since the creation of the gem "Indigo", Geike alias "blonker" has further developed and refined his vision of beautiful, timeless, melodic instrumental guitar music on a series of highly acclaimed and successful albums ...

Chris Bitten:
Listening and talking to Chris gives you the first impression that he is truly a jazz artist, soft spoken and humble, Chris believes that one has to remember where you come from in order to know where you are going, and in his own words he would tell you that, “there's no future without a past”.
A native of Birmingham, Alabama, Chris had a natural affinity for music. He began tinkering with drums at the age of six, and eventually taught himself to play. One day while his dad was playing the organ after church service , friends and family gathered around, Chris was moved by the music, he slipped over to the drums and started playing along with his dad,everyone was truly amazed at this little kid, even though it seemed like the drum sticks were bigger than him, it was like the service had started all over again.
This seemed to have opened the door way to the beginnings of his music career, Chris was now the regular drummer for his church and was also hired by many choirs through out the Birmingham area. Chris became very popular in the church community and more surprises were in store for everyone as he matured and seasoned. He wrote and produced a song entitled "Lord l Try" that received air play on local gospel radio stations for a group which he named "The Bitten's “ which consisted of his two younger brothers.
Chris moved on to venture the world of music, and it was then that he formed the jazz band "Xpoz'd" which received great reviews in local newspapers and was chosen to entertain the Olympic committee which hosted the world soccer games in Alabama. During this time he met and recorded with jazz recording artist Eric Essix who featured Chris on a tune entitled "Out Da Frame" ...

3. larry luger
Larry Luger has been a professional musician all of his adult life. He started playing gigs in his native borough of the Bronx while still in high school. He played with scores of singers and small groups throughout the New York City area. He was also increasing his knowledge of music at this time by attending Lehman College and studying privately with the great studio guitarist Allen Hanlon and Dr. Michael Stancarone. Larry has said that his greatest influences have been Wes Montgomery, Johnny Smith, Herb Ellis, and Grant Green.
In the 70’s, Larry played the music of the late Nat King Cole with the Sir Harvel Quartet at “Le Bistro” in Atlantic City. He also worked with Latin pianist Carlos Suarez and played on a documentary film score with him entitled “Not Me.” The film included Larry in the closing credits and has been shown on educational television. He spent two years as the guitarist with the Gloria Coleman Organ Trio, subsequently playing with such jazz greats as Joe Lee Wilson, Al Hibbler, Lou Donaldson, Willis ‘Gatortail’ Jackson, Jack McDuff, Harold Cumberbatch, and Percy France ...

The official Randy Bachman Homepage. Includes tour dates, information on Randy Bachman, Soundbites and mechandise.
Born in Winnipeg, Canada, Randy Bachman has become a legendary figure in the rock and roll world through his talents as a guitarist, songwriter, performer and producer. He has earned over 120 Gold and Platinum album/singles awards around the world for performing and producing. His songwriting has garnered him the coveted #1 spot on radio play lists in over 20 countries and he has amassed over 40 million records sold. His songs have been recorded by numerous other artists and placed in dozens of television, movie and commercial soundtracks. His music has provided a veritable soundtrack of the last thirty years of popular music.
He first scored Billboard radio chart success with his band The Guess Who in 1965 performing the song Shakin' All Over. After this initial success it would be another few years before the glare of the spotlight would be cast upon these young Canadian boys again. Sticking it out through some misadventures paid off for the band and they worked their way back up to the top of the charts in a spectacular way. This time, The Guess Who went on to virtually own the pop charts with an unprecedented run of 5 million-selling singles, all the product of the gold plated Randy Bachman-Burton Cummings songwriting team. By 1970, The Guess Who had sold more records than the entire Canadian recording industry to that point, even outselling the Beatles that year. Their hits included These Eyes, Laughing, Undun, No Time, No Sugar Tonight and American Woman.
Due to health concerns and desiring a change in lifestyle, which would include spending more time with his young family, Randy left the Guess Who at the height of their success. While this move stunned the music world, Randy knew that he could never leave music behind. He formed Brave Belt - a county rock outfit in 1970 and experimented with a new musical style and line up that eventually metamorphosized into Bachman Turner Overdrive.
Unbelievably, Randy's success with Bachman Turner Overdrive would eclipse his earlier triumphs and give him yet a third run at the pop music charts.
Monstrous hits for the band included, Let it Ride, Roll on Down The Highway, Takin' Care of Business and You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet which reached #1 in over 20 countries.
Randy's career has been built upon his unstoppable drive to work at creating music. He has released numerous solo albums throughout his career, and has simultaneously worked at producing for other artists. His production/writing work with Canadian rock band Trooper generated gold and platinum record in the 1970's.
His love of guitar music and a desire to support some unsung and legendary guitar greats including his early mentor Lenny Breau, led him to found the jazz guitar record label Guitarchives which rescues and releases otherwise lost archival guitar music. As well he founded Ranbach Music, a label which releases archival Guess Who recordings, and other material which never made it to CD ...
