John Etheridge : Guitarist, composer, bandleader, educator

John Etheridge rightly enjoys a glowing reputation throughout the jazz world and beyond and has been described by Pat Metheny as, "One of the best guitarists". He is a prodigiously gifted and creative player whose approach to music can only be described as 'eclectic' as he refuses to accommodate or even acknowledge artificial musical boundaries.

In today’s episode John talks about his inspirations and meetings with Jimi Hendrix, being in Soft Machine and touring with Stephane Grappelli. There is a lot in this even John playing a very cool intro. It is a tough job, but someone has to do it.
