Description

Chet Atkins known as Lenny Breau (1941–1984) “the best guitarist who ever walked the face of the earth.” Breau started playing the instrument at age seven, and went on to master many styles, especially jazz. Between 1968 and 1983 he made a series of recordings which might be a few of the such a lot influential guitar albums of the century.

Breau’s astonishing virtuosity influenced countless performers, but unfortunately it came on the expense of his personal relationships. Regardless of Breau’s fascinating life story and his musical importance, no full-length biography has been published until now. Forbes-Roberts has interviewed more than 175 people and closely analyzed Breau’s recordings to expose an enormously gifted man and the interior workings of his music.
