If
you've listened to popular music at any time over the past 30
years, you've listened to Louie Shelton. Louie has played guitar
on mega-hits from Boz Scaggs' Lowdown, Seal & Crofts'
Summer Breeze and Diamond Girl, Lionel Ritchie's
Hello, and Neil Diamond's Play Me to The Monkees'
Last Train to Clarksville and Valerie as well as
The Jackson 5's I Want You Back and I'll Be There!
He's also played on records by Whitney Houston, Marvin Gaye, Barbara
Streisand, and John Lennon.
In
the annals of rock and pop, Louie Shelton has a special position.
Like greats Chet Atkins, Tommy Tedesco, Steve Cropper, James Burton
and a few others, he's been viewed as a supreme session guitarist,
as well as a consummate producer. Now he's stepping into the spotlight
with a gem of a contemporary jazz album.
This
long-awaited album showcases the skill, versatility and passion
of an acclaimed guitarist, producer and composer who has made
other people sound great for a very long time.
