"Guitars At An Exhibition Volume 2" (U.S.)- Free CD Compilation (2004)

Jack Wilson and Tom Hess are responsible for this successful compilation project which is self-promoted, financed and supported by the musicians, private donors and sponsors. This is the driving force and life's blood of the project which made Volume 1 successful.
 
Volume 2 is over 67 minutes and features 17 guitarists from around the globe and many of them you have heard on occasion on my F.A.R.OUT! section of the website. These names include Tom Hess himself, Jack Wilson, Kevin Buck, Truth Squad and Flyin' Ryan Brothers (Truth Squad features one of the Ryans). I also found some interesting new artists to contact in the near future since the song they play and style they represent is interesting and adds flavor to the compilation. Names to throw at you would be guys like Chris Kalkbrenner, Riff Sorce, Marc Ferrara, Mark Carozza for starters and this whole compilation is good in my opinion and for those serious into guitar and instrumental music which is serious self-expression and shows you the very personal side of songwriting creativity.
