Guitar Speak....With Tom Sullivan!

The guitar has been a predominant instrument for hundreds of years. Every conceivable type of music is transcribed and played on guitar.

The guitar is an instrument which nearly anyone can play if they're serious. Not even major handicaps have stopped someone who sincerely wanted to play the instrument. Such was the case with Django Reinhardt; a gypsy musician who lost the use of three fingers on his left hand yet became a legendary player of his time.

Guitar Speak is dedicated to those guitarists who are interested in learning about the guitar in every way.

The host of Guitar Speak is a gentleman named Tom Sullivan. I knew he was the right man for the job after I spoke with him once. I had not yet met a man as dedicated and so completely knowledgable in the guitar that I could remember. A phenominal player in his own right; he also repairs and builds his own instruments.

Guitar Speak will be our first attempt at sales on BluePower. As you may or may not know, all content on BluePower has been free since April 4th, 1994. That's a long time and a lot of shows under the bridge. However; our costs multiply as our listenership grows and the costs are becoming prohibitive.

Guitar Speak starts running in June and a podcast download will cost $1.00 per show or $3.00 per month.

This show will be a true experience regarding the many sides of the guitar. Stay tuned as Tom Sullivan leads us through the wonderful world of music on the instrument known as....the guitar.
