Listen "Podcast 167: Guitarist Michael Gulezian"
Episode Synopsis
On this week's Fretboard Journal Podcast, we're joined by fingerstyle guitar legend Michael Gulezian. Michael is talking to us from his new home in Paonia, Colorado and offers us an insightful, thought-provoking glimpse into the life of a working musician. He tells us about his childhood and the impact that Middle Eastern music had on his own compositions. We also talk about his time with John Fahey, Michael Hedges and Robbie Basho and the sad downfall of Takoma Records. Michael also explains why so many great guitar players have come out of Minnesota, talks to us about his choice of acoustic guitars (built by frequent FJ contributor Todd Lunneborg) and much more. This episode of the podcast is brought to you by our friends at Retrofret Vintage Guitars. Michael Gulezian's official site.
