The Guitar Spaceship has landed!

I am proud to introduce a new website that I just created and launched called GuitarSpaceship.com!

I'm a lover of all types of music, especially guitar music. I'm also a guitar player, and I love to play my guitar everyday. The music transports my mind and my spirit to wonderful places and spaces.

Ever since YouTube came around, I've become a huge fan of finding clips of master guitarists playing their music. Watching the musicians perform helps me to understand them more deeply, and I'm oftentimes blown away by the raw emotional power and virtuosity of the guitar playing.

I enjoy watching these clips so much that I decided to compile them on a website so that I could go there when I needed some inspiration. And I also thought that it would be great if other people could stumble upon the clips and find inspiration, too.

So to start things off, I am pledging to myself to post 4 excellent clips each month at GuitarSpaceship.com centered around a specific theme, such as Blues, Jazz, Bluegrass, Rock and Roll, Country, or Classical Guitar. Hopefully, as I'm able to devote more time to this, I can make postings every week.

So go to GuitarSpaceship.com, relax, take a deep breath, and spend fifteen minutes watching this month's clips. And if you have headphones, I recommend that you use them. You are about to hear beautiful music.
