Brazilian
Musicians
Musicians
from Latin America's largest nation, Brazil, say they are
finding it much harder to break into the US market than
their counterparts from other countries. Steve Mort
reports for VOA from Rio de Janeiro.
Teresa
Cristina
It's very
expensive to engage a band like mine with so many
musicians. It's very expensive to travel. Most of the
time, they invite us and offer us a very low payment
because they don't have a commercial sponsor, and they
want me to tour with only two or three musicians and
showcase Brazilian music.
Miss Tesss
music is of a piece with her calculated stage persona.
Shes always Miss Tess, even when shes
returning your phone call for an interview. Her thing is
original tunes and covers that draw on early jazz and
blues, with a bit of country thrown in, and she likes to
perform in vintage dresses as well as play a sweet, full-toned
1920s Weymann electric guitar. On her new Live on the
Road, she covers Fats Wallers Honeysuckle
Rose, Bessie Smiths Baby Doll,
and the Gaskill/McHugh standard I Cant
Believe That Youre in Love with Me
which, as she says on the disc, I learned off a
Peggy Lee record. The Bon Ton Parade, meanwhile,
put the emphasis on swing, with acoustic bass and drums,
and the well-schooled local jazz reedman Alec Spiegelman
playing saxophone and clarinet. More Info

Jim,
I came across your ezine article about handmade guitars.
The article,though quite well written, isn't nearly as
convincing as actually playing one of your guitars. I,ve
personally had the pleasure of both hearing and playing a
"Sullivan" guitar and I can honestly say that
it was the best finger style instrument I have ever come
across! So much for your article. I also followed the
link to www.acousticguitarcorner.com with which, I assume, you
are affiliated and checked out your full line of
accessories, looks like you,re sticking with the cream of
the crop in this venture also. P.S., The pricing looks
very competative as well. - Tom Edwards,
Nashville,Tn
"I have
recently purchased a Sullivan Guitar and I want to say
that the craftsmanship far surpassed my expectations. The
quality of sound acoustically and electrically is way
better than any Taylor or Martin I have ever played on.
The detail work on the bindings and butt strip are
awesome and the finish is excellent. I especially like
the hand carved "S" in the headstock. The
action and intonation are great too. If you have not
tried or own a Sullivan Guitar you should because you are
missing out on a high quality instrument.
I liked the first guitar so much I am ready to place my
second custom order."Barry Sacco
"Jim Sullivan
is truly a master guitar builder. If you are looking for
a guitar that feels and sounds like the best guitar you
have ever played and a guitar that you can hand down and
keep in the family, I recommend you drive down to TN and
pick one out today." - Mark Barreres
