When two highly technical guitar-noodlers decide to sit down with a laptop and a couple of mikes to improvise, the results might serve for posterity's sake and little else -- especially if they've never met. But when said noodlers are microtonalist Neil Haverstick and flamenco/jazz ace Barry Wedgle, it's a collision course of two distinctive and exciting styles well worth documenting. -- La Briola

âYou know, you could have called these amazing recordings anything you like: had they been Nine Duets by Giovanni Commandatore I would have believed you....the compositional integrity is astounding. I don't know how much you had to throw out to get these tracks, but they sound as if every note was compositionally considered, weighed, strategically placed. My great admiration and congratulations!âJohn Schneider
