he continent of Australia has a rich legacy of guitar instrumental music. The
Atlantics were big down under in the '60's and are still going strong and now
Australia brings us guitarist Leanne Douglas. Now living in Nashville, Leanne not
only has amazing touch on electric guitar but she's a gifted composer. She's
clearly more Hank Marvin than Link Wray, although the more rock dominated moments on
Blue Heeler hold up quite well. Assisting here are George Towne (drums) several
other fine quitarists, including excellent pedal steel from guitarist Lee Warren.
Co-producing, bass and strings arrangements from Dale Brown adds further shine to
the sound of Blue Heeler.
