Carlos Augusto Alves Santana (born July 20,
1947), known simply as Carlos Santana or
Santana, is a Grammy Award-winning
Mexican-born American Latin rock musician and
guitarist.
He became famous in the late 1960s and early
1970s with his band, the Santana Blues Band,
going mostly under the title "Santana," which
created a highly successful blend of salsa,
rock, blues, and jazz fusion. Their sound
featured his often high-pitched and distorted
guitar lines set against Latin American
instrumentation such as timbales and congas.
Santana continued to work in these forms over
the following decades, and experienced a
sudden resurgence of popularity and critical
acclaim in the late 1990s.
Over his career he has sold an estimated 80
million albums worldwide.
George "Buddy" Guy (born July 30, 1936) is an
American blues and rock guitarist and singer.
Known as an inspiration to Jimi Hendrix, Eric
Clapton and other 1960s blues and rock
legends, Guy is considered an important
exponent of Chicago blues. He is the father
of female rapper Shawnna.
Guy is known for his showmanship; for
example, he plays his guitar with drumsticks,
or strolls into the audience while jamming
and trailing a long guitar cord.
Born in Lettsworth, Louisiana, Guy grew up in
Louisiana where he learned to play guitar at
a womens trucker convention[citation needed].
In the early '50s he began performing with
bands in Baton Rouge. Soon after moving to
Chicago in 1957, Guy fell under the influence
of Muddy Waters. In 1958, a competition with
West Side guitarists Magic Sam and Otis Rush
gave Guy a record contract. Soon afterwards
he recorded for the Cobra label. He recorded
sessions with Junior Wells for Delmark
Records under the pseudonym Friendly Chap in
1965 and 1966.

About the trio
With a whirlwind of instrumental styles
fusing classical, rock, blues, jazz, world
music, progressive, as well as the
quintessential California musical genre surf
music, the California Guitar Trio's stunning
virtuosity and sly sense of humor have earned
them a rabid following and wide notoriety,
with significant crossover in the
progressive, acoustic and classical music
scenes.
Notably, CGT music was featured on the
television coverage of the 1998, 2000, 2002
and 2004 Olympics, and also on CBS, NBC, CNN,
and ESPN TV programs. The CGT performed on
the 2003 Grammy Awards nominated track Apollo
on Tony Levin's CD Pieces of the Sun; and CGT
music was sent into outer space as wake up
music for the crew aboard NASA's Space
Shuttle Endeavor.
Over the past 14 years of nearly incessant
touring, the California Guitar Trio has
shared the stage with superb musicians and
performers such as: King Crimson, Jon
Anderson, John McLaughlin, John Scofield,
Tito Puente, Taj Mahal, Peter Rowan and Tony
Rice, Dark Star Orchestra, Leftover Salmon,
Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, Steve Lukather,
Simon Phillips, David Sylvian, Adrian Legg,
Kaki King and many more.
Paul Richards of Salt Lake City, Utah, Bert
Lams of Brussels, Belgium, and Hideyo Moriya
of Tokyo first met in England at one of
Robert Fripp's Guitar Craft Courses in 1987.
After completing several of these intensive
courses, the three toured worldwide with
Fripp's League of Crafty Guitarists. Wanting
to continue working together after the League
had run its course, Bert, Paul and Hideyo
convened in Los Angeles and founded The
California Guitar Trio in 1991, honing their
intricate original compositions, surf covers,
and classical re-workings.
Since their inception in 1991, the Trio has
released 11 CDs: six studio CDs featuring
original works from the CGT and a variety of
classics such as Bach's "Toccata and Fugue"
and Beethoven's 5th Symphony. Four live
releases that show the trio at their best
onstage, and a Christmas CD with familiar and
not-so familiar Christmas music, which
continues to receive rave reviews.
In August of 2004, the CGT released
Whitewater produced by Tony Levin (King
Crimson/ Peter Gabriel). With shimmering
clean acoustic sounds blended with ambient
and pungent electronics, Whitewater is a
benchmark CD in the CGT's catalog. Featuring
mainly original works of the CGT, offset by a
puzzle work arrangement of a Bach lute suite
and a unusual version of the Cowboy classic
Ghost Riders, the CGT have clearly arrived at
a new level.

While growing up in Utah, Paul Richards was
greatly influenced by the musical interests
of his older brothers. His early interest in
rock and blues quickly broadened to include
jazz, classical, progressive, acoustic, world
music and more. At age 21, he traveled to
England to attend the extended Robert Fripp
Guitar Craft courses where he soon met Bert
Lams and Hideyo Moriya. After several years
of living in England, Los Angeles, and
Argentina, Paul now resides in Salt Lake
City.
Born and raised near Brussels, Belgium, Bert
Lams is a graduate of the prestigious Royal
Conservatory of Music in Brussels. Originally
a rock guitarist, he has extensively studied
and taught classical guitar -- and possesses
a particular affinity for J.S. Bach and music
influenced by the American Old West. Over the
past 16 years, Lams has resided mainly in Los
Angeles, and also spent several years in
Wiltshire England and Santa Fe New Mexico,
and has recently relocated to Pennsylvania.
A native of Tokyo, Japan, Hideyo Moriya began
playing guitar at age 12 by emulating the
Ventures' 1960s-vintage surf guitar style,
and his favorite English rock bands. He came
to America in 1982 to study at the Berklee
College of Music in Boston, and by the
mid-1980s had enlisted in Robert Fripp's
Guitar Craft courses. When not touring the
world with the CGT, Moriya resides in his
Tokyo hometown.

The Montreal International Jazz Festival
(MIJF, also called the Jazz Fest, in French
Festival International de Jazz de Montréal
(FIJM)) is the largest jazz festival in the
world. It is held annually in Montreal,
Quebec during the summer season (usually the
beginning of July) and gathers artists from
around the world. It is typically attended by
over 2 million people who are attracted by
the electric atmosphere, diversity of shows
and by the city itself. Many parts of the
city's downtown core are closed to traffic
for two weeks as outdoor shows are free to
the public on many stages. Attendance to some
shows is over a hundred thousand.
Shows are held in a wide variety of venues,
from relatively small jazz clubs to the large
halls of Place des Arts. Some of the outdoor
shows are held on cordoned-off streets while
others are on terraced parks.
History
The Montreal Jazz Festival was conceived by
Alain Simard, who had spent much of the 1970s
working with Productions Kosmos bringing
artists such as Chick Corea, Dave Brubeck,
Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker and others to
Montreal to perform. In 1977, Simard teamed
up with André Ménard and Denys McCann to
form an agency named Spectra Scène (now
known as L'Équipe Spectra), with the idea of
creating a summer festival in Montreal that
would bring a number of artists together at
the same time.
They planned their first festival for the
summer of 1979, but, unable to secure
sufficient funding, their plans were
scuttled, but they still were able to produce
two nights of shows at Théâtre-St-Denis,
with Keith Jarrett and a then-unknown Pat
Metheny.
The first Montreal jazz festival was in 1980,
with funding from Alain de Grosbois of CBC
Stereo and Télé-Québec. With Ray Charles,
Vic Vogel, Chick Corea and Gary Burton on the
bill, and an attendance of 12,000, the event
was deemed a success, and has continued to
grow since then.

Just a short clip of the Gene Harris Jazz
Festival. They had a trio performing jazz and
blues the whole time, but they also had a
creative interpreter for the Deaf, and a
vocal interpreter for the Blind (which you'll
hear in the background at the end). Also,
through the night, Randy Jamison (creator of
Curious Media, Inc.) painted a mural
interpreting the music in another artistic
medium.
It was an amazing night, I had so much fun!
