JOHNNY A.
Sometime Tuesday Morning 
(Aglaophone Records)

Following session work with singer Peter Wolf and Santana percussionist Mingo Lewis, Boston-based guitar ace Johnny A. steps out on his new and appealing album debut. 

Inspired by the retro ambience of '50s jazz and the high density guitar rock of the late, great Danny Gatton and guitar gods, The Hellecasters, the all-instrumental sometime tuesday morning covers all the guitar bases, from jazz and blues to rock, country and surf as well. A. cites Chet Atkins and Jeff Beck as big inspirations, while other big influences are quite apparent on A.'s distinctive covers of "Wichita Lineman" (Jimmy Webb), "Yes It Is" (The Beatles), "You Don't Love Me" (Willie Cobbs) and "Walk Don't Run" (Johnny Smith). Also featuring Ed Spargo (bass) and Craig MacIntyre (drums), Johnny A.'s sometime tuesday morning is a solid spin from start to finish.
