The performers in this 60 minute DVD express different traditions, personalities and stylistic approaches through their guitars. Yet there is a commonality, not only in the instrument and fundamental approach to it but also in the choice of these players to take risks and to respect tradition. Bob Brozman plays Hawaiian Greetings unlike any of the Hawaiian guitarists of the 1920s, yet his version overflows with love of his sources. Peppino D'Agostino uses unorthodox techniques to transform his guitar into a Brazilian rhythm band. Titles include Stefan Grossman Sheebeg An Sheemore -+ Bob Brozman Hawaiian Greetings -+ Brad Jones Funky Fingers -+ Martin Simpson Medley Lord Gregory/Bob's Song -+ Peppino D'Agostino Grand Canyon, Ponteio -+ John Renbourn Sweet Potato, Medley Lament for Owen Roe O'Neill/Mist Covered Mountains of Home/The Orphan -+ Martin Simpson & Bob Brozman Bentonia, Chimes of Timbuktu -+ Martin Carthy Seven Yellow Gypsies -+ Stefan Grossman and Duck Baker Danish Drone -+ Bob Brozman Steel Guitar Stomp.
