1. jerry hahn
Jerry Hahn is a jazz guitarist and instructor currently residing in Wichita, Kansas. He has played with such notables as the John Handy, and is the author of the Complete Jerry Hahn Method for Jazz Guitar series published by Mel Bay Publications. Jerry offers University Curriculum guitar instruction for music majors and has several recordings available online.
Jerry Hahn has long been recognized as one of jazz’s most influential guitarists. He became a major name in the 1960s and 1970s for his de facto contribution to the emerging fusion movement, and has remained one of its ardent promoters throughout his career.
Born in Nebraska September 21, 1940, he was raised in Kansas. He began playing the guitar at age 7. At age 11 he began playing professionally with the Bobby Wiley Rhythmaires, appearing daily on Wichita’s first television station KEDD. At 21 he moved to San Francisco, where he joined the John Handy Quintet in 1964, recording two albums for Columbia Records including the critically acclaimed “Live at Monterey”.
In 1967 he recorded his first album The Jerry Hahn Quintet for Arhoolie Records with Jack DeJohnette on drums. In 1968, he joined the Gary Burton Quartet with Roy Haynes and Steve Swallow, recording three albums and toured the United States, Europe, Canada, and Japan. Then, in 1970, he formed the Jerry Hahn Brotherhood, performing, touring, and recording for Columbia Records. In his book “The Jazz Book”, German born jazz authority Joachim Berendt noted the Jerry Hahn Brotherhood as being one of the “trailblazers of rock-jazz integration”. Jerry also began to write a monthly column for Guitar Player magazine entitled “Jerry Hahn’s Guitar Seminar” which continued for five years, and started work on his formidable book and CD Complete Jerry Hahn Method For Jazz Guitar for Mel Bay Publications ...

Tom Strahle:
Los Angeles Studio Guitarist & Songwriter.
I've been writing songs for over twenty years (if you don't count the book of Beatlesque tunes I wrote when I was seven). But it wasn't until I started leading worship in 1996 that I began to develop a desire to write worship songs. I've always enjoyed writing. I almost consider it as necessary to my well being as breathing. I feel that there is a part of my heart and/or mind that is exposed with each song. In the case of the songs I've written for Porch this is definitely true. In the case of the praise and worship songs I've written I hope to be as invisible as possible as I write about or to our Lord and Savior. I believe that we were created for one primary purpose and that is to worship our God. He doesn't even need us to witness for Him (although I believe that is a vital part of a Christian walk) His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature are clearly seen in His creation ...so that they are without excuse (Romans 1:19,20).The songs below were written for God's glorification and the Church's edification ...

For Johnny A., the guitar has held a lifelong fascination, her six strings exerting a powerful influence and addictive beauty since the first time he held them. The pursuit of this musical lady with the perfect shape has driven his years - shaping the course of his life – taking him places he never could have imagined. Through inspiring moments of ecstatic improvisation, deep contemplation and inevitable gaps of frustration it has been a stormy affair with a tempestuous hollow-body lover, but the marriage has been nothing less than remarkable.
Johnny A. is widely regarded as one of America's finest contemporary guitarists. Gibson thinks so – their Custom Shop designed a Signature Edition guitar per his specific requests which, when it was marketed in 2003, placed him in an exclusive club that included legends like BB King, Wes Montgomery, Chet Atkins, Joe Perry, Pat Martino and Les Paul himself. The public thinks so too - Johnny A.'s latest works have sold many thousands of copies as well as being his personal best. The most recent CD's - 2004's Get Inside and 1999's Sometime Tuesday Morning, are the critically acclaimed solo culmination of a lifetime of learning, sharing and bonding in a long parade of bands and players.
As a bright-eyed six-year old in Malden, Massachusetts, Johnny became fascinated with the drums, a habit his father encouraged by buying him a kit. There were lessons and the Jr. High School marching band, but as fun as the skins were, he realized that their melodic capability was quite limited. Rhythm had taken a backseat to melody and since the most melodic instrument in any 60's beat group was guitar, those six-strings now began their inexorable pull on Johnny A's life. Once the four “mop-tops” from Liverpool dropped like a bomb from Ed Sullivan's studio into his living room in 1964, his course was set.
A $49 Lafayette Electronics guitar became Johnny A.'s first girlfriend. A humble beginning for sure, but his mom was no fool and wanted to be safe if this ‘guitar thing' just turned out to be another passing teenage phase. It wasn't. Johnny saw the Beatles at Suffolk Downs outside of Boston in 1966 and their magical presence sent the impressionable lad into a blur of activity – sweeping up hair and doing odd jobs at his aunt's salon to save up the 88 bucks needed to buy a Vox Clubman guitar. Then, of course, he had to have a Gretsch too. No, this was no passing phase ...

Tony McManus: guitarplayer:
virtuosity from the soul.
To find a unique voice on so ubiquitous an instrument as the acoustic guitar is quite
an achievement: to do so within a centuries old idiom where the instrument has no real history is truly remarkable. In little over ten years as a professional musician Tony McManus has come to be recognised throughout the world as the leading guitarist in Celtic Music. From early childhood his twin obsessions of traditional music and acoustic guitar have worked together to produce a startlingly original approach to this ancient art. In Tony’s hands the complex ornamentation normally associated with fiddles and pipes are accurately transferred to guitar in a way that preserves the integrity and emotional impact of the music.
Self taught from childhood, initially through listening to the family record collection, McManus abandoned academia in his twenties to pursue music full time. The session scene in Glasgow and Edinburgh provided the springboard for gigs around Scotland and a studio set for BBC Radio, frequently rebroadcast, began to spread the word.
With the loyal support of Greentrax Recordings in Scotland Tony’s first self titled recording in 1996, followed by Pourquoi Quebec in 1999 led to worldwide recognition ...
