Music Magazine Guitarist Presents: Heroes of Guitar First Edition Edición anterior

The term ‘guitar hero’ is part of the furniture of modern music, but the classic albums and spine-tingling live performances from which legends are carved were made by real musicians inspired by their own guitar heroes in their turn. Here, we explore the insights, influences and hard-won playing experience of some of the world’s greatest guitarists in a series of classic interviews. We also take a close look at the instruments with which they made history, including Jimi’s Strats, Peter Green’s legendary ’59 Les Paul, Rory Gallagher’s eclectic collection of electric and folk instruments, and much more. We also look back to the true pioneers: the early 20th century guitar innovators who showed the way for all who followed, from Django Reinhardt to Sister Rosetta Tharpe. We hope this in-depth study of the roots of guitar greatness enriches and enlarges your own appreciation of guitar, as these masters of the instrument would surely wish.
