In Acoustic Guitar Magazine’s 20th Anniversary issue there’s a list of 20 Years of Essential Acoustic Albums and our good friend Al Petteway got two mentions and our Dream Guitars’ 2008 collaboration with Tony McManus received one.

Quotes from the article:

Petteway is one of today’s most respected fingerstyle players.” (Maggie’s Music)

2004 – Various artists, Henry Mancini: Pink Guitar

2008 – Tony McManus, The Maker’s Mark: The Dream Guitar Sessions
