Originally from Japan, Masa Sumide now resides in Australia and has three albums to his credit. Our Collection pulls tracks from all three. The great Tuck Andress enthused: “I can't imagine anyone not playing these over and over.”

 

Masa Sumide : The Collection  SACD 2020  CD


 
 Tuck Andress:
 
 "Cool Exposure" is another masterpiece by one of the world's greatest solo
 guitarists.  I cannot imagine anyone not loving this recording and playing
 it
 over and over.  Listening as a guitarist, it is dazzling how easy Masa
 Sumide
 makes it sound.  His technique is overwhelming, yet it always serves the
 music.  Listening as an engineer, it is a truly outstanding recording of
 guitar.  Listening as a lover of music, it is just a sheer pleasure to
 listen
 to or groove to.  If I were a DJ, I would put it on to blow everyone's mind
 and get them off their feet for the first time to solo guitar.  My words do
 not do it justice.  Truly an accomplishment!

 great technique, wonderful music...."
