Acoustic Guitar Player

Peter Spragues music was something I became aware of in the eighties.  When I was studying with jazz legend Ike Isaacs I’d always turn up and say “Ok uncle Ike, who’s hot? ” and he’d mention different players that I’d never heard of.  One such player is a guy called Peter Sprague.  I went straight out at the time and got a copy of Na Pali Coast on vinyl, it is still in my collection of coveted guitar albums that other guitar players I grew up with look at and go yeah…I rember that.   The album was on the Concord label, to jazz experts, that would mean someting and to other people who are up to speed on drummers, it had Peter Esrskine on drums, not to mention Bob Magnusson on Bass and Steve Kujala on Flute and Tripp Sprague sitting in on one tune.

The beauty of having a guitar blog site like this is I can dig into my musical history and introduce all these astounding guitar players that you as a reader may never have the opportunity of hearing.

 So here is Peter Sprague some years later, live in his lounge room, doing what he does best, play brilliant guitar.
