This review is from: One Night,One Guitar (Audio CD)

As a fan of guitar music in general, and folks like DeGrassi and BenSusan in specific, I was blown away by Dave Cullen's subtlety, virtuosity, and flexibility. In this album, recorded live with, as the title implies, just a solo classical guitar, he divides his time equally between Bach and originals. The Bach is gorgeous! His playing is as fluid as the greats, and is unmarred by the fretboard noise that so many wind up with. And the originals are terrific as well...jazzy, with enough harmonic nuance to grab your attention, and keep it from falling into the merely New Age, but not so much that folkies should be wary. A favorite is the concluding gem...a cover of Zawinul's Birdland, in which Cullen keeps the bass and harmony moving while letting the melody sing through...and it's all solo live guitar! Amazing!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Masterwork!, October 2, 2002

This review is from: One Night,One Guitar (Audio CD)

From the best "undiscovered" guitar talent in the US, "One, Night, One Guitar" puts thoughful, precise, and evocative guitar playing in the speakers of music fans everywhere. This is David Cullen at his best, effortlessly burning through original tunes and quietly charting new ground in his expressively performed Bach Cello Suites. David has played with some of the best,and though based on this performance they should (or will) be soon lining up to play with him.
Acoustic guitar music does not get any better than this! IF you are new to Dave, this is the disc to buy. The mix of tunes is a perfect blend of all that is Dave, and the recording is precise.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

After hearing David Cullen In concert, I was moved to purchase this album. Mr. Cullen's performance is technically brilliant with a sensitive intepretation. He knows the guitar very well. This recording includes a variety of styles, was recorded live, and will be played many times. An exciting work!!
