Product Description John Platania is one of rock and roots music's consummate guitar players. But Blues, Waltzes and Badland Borders is not your typical guitar player's solo album, though it does serve as a tour de force showcase for his musical skills and distinctive playing. "I don't consider myself a `guitar slinger' or an instrumentalist," Platania says. And his stellar resume as a player backs that contention: recording and touring with such master singer-songwriters as Van Morrison, Don McLean, Randy Newman, Bonnie Raitt, Judy Collins and Natalie Merchant as well as his longtime compatriot Chip Taylor, who collaborated with him on the writing and production of Blues,Waltzes and Badland Borders. Platania calls the album "an instrumental concept with narratives," and as the music unfolds for listeners, it plays like a festival of aural short films or a collection of musical novellas. In short, it's an album of songs on which Platania's guitar playing is the primary (but hardly sole) lead voice, if you will. To wit, Blues,Waltzes and Badland Borders features vocal contributions from Grammy-winner Lucinda Williams and acclaimed eclectic Texas rocker Alejandro Escovedo as well as spoken word segments by the likes of Oscar-winning actor Jon Voight (Taylor's brother) and Tejano music star Ruben Ramos. At the core of the album are songs with a Tex-Mex and borderlands flavor inspired by Platania's time in recent years with Taylor in Texas (where Taylor has had a following since his first solo albums in the early 1970s) as well as his Spanish family heritage. Review "Platania's playing is never intrusive, never flashy...You can almost feel the heat and dust of the desert." -- Rock 'n' Reel
