Fingerstyle guitarist Nick Thompson's 2003 CD release, Lend Me Your Ears, continues the musician's development, following his previous two CDs, "Red Weather" and "Sometimes Splatter Paints". Some cuts, such as "Serenading The L Train" feature a highly percussive style, with slaps, pops and other startling techniques. "Song For Michael Hedges" and "Song For Michael Hedges (Reprise)" are tributes to the late acoustic master, while tracks such as "Two Taylors Tussling" and "Spitbugs With Horns" feature Thompson's longtime friend Taylor Ho Bynum on coronet, providing the best rambling acoustic guitar accompanyment ever. The tracks were recorded live with no overdubbing. Instrumental Guitar (Acoustic/Fingerstyle), total running time, 41:53 - Nick Thompson @ iTunes!
