In a world of sound-alike guitarists, Magic Red stands out. His guitar work fuses contemporary rock techniques with the best of traditional electric blues. The result is a ballistic, pyrotechnic style of playing that separates him from the pack. Red brings this same intensity and vitality to his songwriting as well. His first two CDs featured originals tapping the well-spring of the blues, while his 2003 release, 87 Humboldt Street, is an all instrumental album leaning more towards rock while maintaining blues shadings and influences. The title is a reference back to the address where Red first learned to play guitar, and he states, "The guitar is a friend, a love affair, a puzzle and a spiritual pursuit." None other than Pete McMahon of Savoy Brown has enthused, "Red's guitar playing is cutting-edge blues for the year 2000!" Find out for yourself what audiences and critics have discovered: Red is a dynamic new direction in rock and blues and a force to be reckoned with.
