Review of Acoustic Blues Guitarist Andy Kimbel

After giving the Andy Kimbel interview a good listen, I am left with wanting to hear more even though the length of the entire program was about two hours.

I really enjoyed listening to the artist provide backgrounds and technical "notes" on some of the selections.

The music is energetic and inspiring. I like the natural feel of the show. The guitarist is talented and also humorous at times which presents a fresh uplifting experience.
Aside from being an excellent musician, Andy Kimbel exhibits a real passion for what he does that really comes across. The song selections also have a nice flow.

Perhaps a few more songs would be nice even if it means cutting down the allotted time for interviews.

Review of Acoustic Blues Guitarist Andy Kimbel

Versatile guitar playing is always good company and Andy Kimbel is certainly that. I was painting my kitchen and was kept busy with his fluency in various styles: blues, country, Irish, - his playing is interspersed with interviews that are sometimes amusing, and sometimes overly enthusiastic in craft talk (which can leave the listener with a question mark overhead - notes to producer). This is easy fare to use for filling overnight - it's 2 hours which under normal circumstances might be too long - but having someone over in the corner of the room happily picking away is an easy enough way to pass the night.
