ne of the best kept secrets from the state of Oklahoma, guitar ace Terry Ware
released his best album yet in 2004. The all instrumental 12 track Ridin' The Reverb
Range finds Ware reviving the instro guitar field made famous by The Ventures, The
Shadows, Booker T & The MG's, Frank Zappa and more recently by Los Straitjackets.
With track titles like "Galactic Orphan (Meek's Shadow)" and "Bob Goes To Spy
School", Ware keeps the spirits high and he even sums up fine covers of the Davie
Allan classic "Chopper / Fender Bender" while offering his own instro take on the
Dusty Springfield chestnut "You Don't Have To Say You Love Me". Featuring a range of
originals, the CD establishes Ware right up there America's finest spy/surf guitar
practitioners.
