THE OC REGISTERJames
Grant "Mythology"(independent) - James Grant's latest CD, "Mythology,"
is filled with technically perfect guitar work in the spirit of the '80s
and '90s efforts by Joe Satriani. However, to draw simple comparisons
with that pioneering player's approach would not paint a complete picture.
Grant has the soul of a bluesman, notably on "Rainmaker" and
"Oasis," on which the guitarist's work recalls Gary Moore's
fretwork on "Still Got the Blues." Irvine-based Grant plays
with incredible skill, wrapping expressive solos in textured arrangements
that blend elements of progressive rock, modern jazz and electric blues.
