The City's Backyard Ep 142 Guitarist ANDY ALEDORT, who played with DICKEY BETTS and is in the ALLMANS tribute FRIENDS of THE BROTHERS who are on tour now with NY, NJ, and CT area dates!
Andy Aledort is widely known for his transcriptions, instructional columns and DVDs and has also toured throughout the last two decades with Dickey Betts and the Jimi Hendrix Tribute.
Andy’s latest album is In A Dream, featuring five originals and covers of Jimi Hendrix’s “Pali Gap,” Cream’s “Lawdy Mama” and Albert King’s ‘Can’t You See What You’re Doing To Me.” The album has garnered incredible reviews from today’s most respected players: Warren Haynes says,
Andy’s playing his ass off as always and the guitar sounds are great. I love the harmonized slide guitars on ‘Hymn,’ and I’m digging the jazzier tunes too. And on ‘Moonwaves,’ he’s mixing Hendrix and Zappa vibes. I dig it!” Joe Satriani state, “Nice playing all over this album! ‘Pali Gap’ sounds killer and ‘Moonwaves’ is awesome! And Steve Vai adds, “‘In A Dream’ reveals Andy’s authentic love of blues and it shines through in the atmosphere he created. He is burning an old torch in a new way and it works. It’s great to have a record like this that captures that authenticity.” In A Dream is available from Long Song Records.
