Press Reviews I listened to your solo CD, and I really like it. Very well put together. The 2nd track reminds me a bit of early King Crimson. I've never heard anything like it. On the surface it seems like your basic new-age-acoustic-guitar bit, but the musical form is so "progressive" that it's ear-catching. It's kind of like a good book that you can't put down. As for now it's a semi-permanent fixture in my car cd-changer. Kevin Tucker -Word Entertainment

Additional Info Randy uses and old Larivee acoustic guitar, with a Coa box and a Sitka Spruce Top. Also he uses a Pendulum SPS-1 Acoustic preamp and a Fishman Matrix pickup with an AKG B206 soundhole mic.
