Wee Little Stick Man



We did indeed end up seeing The California Guitar Trio last night. Fantastic - as always!
Playing with the Trio last night was
Tony Levin , one of the Gods of Bass (in all forms). Tony's new album Stick Man was available at the merch table, so I picked up a copy - shown above.
(For those unfamiliar, the thing he's holding is a
Chapman Stick , a 10-stringed instrument played with both hands tapping the strings on the fingerboard. Tony is widely acknowledged as a master of the Stick.)

I love this cover, not only because it's a cool shot of Levin with the Stick, but also because of the little tiny photo on the inside spine (bottom pic).

This songs are pretty damn good, too!
