Gary Burford Trio
|
Do not miss Gary when he is back
in town. Gary's range has the Big River crowd praising his talent
while the Peacock dancers rise for dance after dance. Gary has
mastered his solos at the 21st fret. What at times appeared to be a
Tom Petty styled blues, Gary's stage antics reminded me of a longer haired
rockin' blues version of Richard Gere. Do not let the small size of
the drummer's gear fool you. He created some of the best drum solos
the Regular Guy has had the pleasure of experiencing. --- The

Glasshouse
|
While
I only had a chance to hear one song before lead guitar equipment trouble
took them into a break, the vocal and rhythm was most enticing. I
will definitely look for their next appearance. -- The Regular Guy,

Glen David Zucker
|
Glen's electric acoustic finger
pickings were executed with precision. With a deliberate picking
style, Glen drives rhythm well with the low tones while picking entrancing
high tone licks. While I could not hear most of the lyrics,
"Outside looking In" jumped off the stage lyrically.
Occasionally Glen's vocals reminded me of Eric Hansen and Glen's neck
slappin' chord progressions worked well. Glen is also a music
producer and a band member based out of Portland. Glen's band is
taking a break and he just finished producing a new CD for another artist,
so Glen is back on stage. Given Glen's following quote, I think we
will see him again "I really like the feel here in
Corvallis." --- The Regular Guy, November, 2001 |

Glen Falkenberg
|
Glen's Celtic harp sounds packed
another full house at the New Morning Bakery. |

Harrison
|
Harrison's 'mastery of the neck'
(as one fan put it,) provided a full and satisfying backing for his
original songs. Harrison's vocals made me wonder if Jewel had a
brother. Harrison even enticed a couple in the crowd to become the
first to dance in Border's cafe. After giving away an expresso to
the winner of an impromptu audience joke night, he settled in on an
original song expressing feelings from the divorce of his parents.
Next time he is in Corvallis, check out Harrison's melodic acoustic
rhythms., The Regular Guy, November, 2001 |

Hole in the Ocean
|
Dancing women and singing pool
players ignited in Squirrels when the 'Hole' beat began. Fine lead
vocals and one of the best keyboard performances The Regular Guy has had
the pleasure of experiencing. --- The Regular Guy, November, 2001

Inner
|
Jennifer Turner (the bunny) arrives at the Peacock in her new band
named Inner. Jennifer previously picked her way around the globe
with Natalie Merchant's band, Lenny Kravitz and Alanis Morrisette.
Joined by Erika from Heavy Pebble, they are in the middle of a seven week
tour. Beyond her proven Ax talent, Jennifer's impressive vocal range
rolls from Alanis stylings to Whole intensity. Erika's harmonic
vocals and mastery of bass distortion provide a unique rhythmic foundation. ---- The Regular Guy November, 2001 |
