    Press Reviews
    Shamrock Multimedia, PO Box 13499, Edinburgh, EH6 8YL did a review. Here are some excerpts: JEFF AUG - Before Then After (Corrosive Media CM001 PM002. This is the third solo album from Washington, DC based guitarist Jeff Aug. Now, before you run screaming for the hills let me reassure you that this is not a Mike Varney type fretfest, rather a collection of mood instrumentals which range across a wide spectrum of musical styles. A remarkably accurate set of titles should give you some indication of where each piece of music is heading, be it funk, blues or boogie:-) Check out http://www2.ari.net/health/bands.html for reviews of a few of Jeff's CDs. Other reviews available at Jeff's web site.
