Martin Cilia - Espresso Martino CD (Bombora)
This is a limited edition, 10-track CD from Martin Cilia - Australia’s premier surf/instro guitarist. Some of the tracks are previously-released - there is one song from each of his studio (non-Christmas) CDs, along with several brand new recordings. One song, the Shadows classic “The Rise & Fall Of Flingle Bunt” is performed with Australian faves Mental As Anything (Martin is also in the band’s current line-up). It is a great disc to sample what Martin’s done as a solo artist, but if you already have his studio releases, you’ll want this for the brand new songs. You’ll hear Martin’s impeccable playing and guitar tone throughout, and some of his finest songwriting is on display here as well!
