简介

Grammy Award winning guitarist Mark Hanson released his second solo CD to critical acclaim. The recording includes 14 tunes: 12 solo fingerstyle tunes, and two "produced" tunes with additional guitars, drums, and Hammond B-3 organ. Jazz drummer Carlton Jackson, and keyboardist George Mitchell, a longtime member of Diana Ross’ band, join Mark for the hip band version of his tune "The Wad.” Haunting solo versions of "Water Is Wide", "Foggy Dew", and his stunning rendition of the Ray Charles hit "You Don’t Know Me" grace the album. Also included for the first time on a listening CD are new and enhanced arrangements of Mark’s hits "Key to the Kingdom", "Mt. Tabor Breeze", and "Taylor’s Ferry;” his 6-minute-long tour-de-force "Unicycle", the jaunty "Beeline", and the beautiful ballad "Postscript". Individual scores for selected tracks on the CD are also available. These are written in standard notation and tablature. To see a list of these scores, please go to http://www.accentonmusic.com/notation.asp About Mark: Mark’s music is heard regularly on syndicated radio and television, including Martha Stewart Living.
