Scott Hughes Review of "The In-Between Phase" @ iTunes By: Robert Silverstein he third album from master guitarist Scott Hughes, The In-Between Phase, features a diverse range of stellar guitar moves - from laid back almost samba-like tracks to a hard hitting cover of the Edgar Winter classic "Frankenstein", full blown band and all. The title track - a well recorded acoustic number with some fine synth background - is so lushly recorded that it wouldn't sound out of place on a mid '60's Jobim album. Other Hughes influences here include Celtic instro-rock in the spirit of Mike Oldfield, the tasty accent on chops in the spirit of Steve Morse, and the biting guitar interplay reminiscent of early Allman Brothers albums. A bluesy cover of the jazz classic "Blue Monk" is the funkiest thing here. With liner notes by Hughes, the nine track CD features fine support from Luc Bergeron on drums. © Robert Silverstein / 20th Century Guitar Magazine B Is For...
