Ten Guitars

Another great guitarist on the Ten Guitars CD is Dan Desjardins. His contribution is an original composition called Breezy, which features an all time great solo IMHO. Still CDs available. Contact Denny Welburn to get yours. All proceeds are going to the Alzheimer Society of Ottawa/Renfrew. (The video is from artist Robert Hagan, whose speed art videos are on YouTube and FB. This painting is called Breezy Day and somehow it seems made to order for Dan's song.)

Wow, how time flies! Time for another track from the Ten Guitars CD. Here is a real throwback to early 60s surf music, Denny Welburn's cover of Pipeline, by The Chantays. Recorded live at Townhouse Studio, with Denny on guitar parts, Raymond McNeely on bass, Yvan Tessier on keyboards, Michel Cloutier on drums and featuring Bruce Baker on sax. It's a scorcher! Copies of the CD are still available. Messsage Denny directly to get yours. All proceeds are being donated to the Alzheimer Society of Ottawa/Renfrew.

Here is another track from the Ten Guitars CD, this one by Gib Rozon. It's an original composition called Midnight Walk. A very smooth groove. Still some CDs left. Message this page or Denny Welburn directly to purchase. All proceeds will be donated to the Ottawa - Renfrew Alzheimer Society.

Hey, long time no see! We just got a new stock of Ten Guitar CDs, all proceeds again going to the Alzheimer Society of Ottawa-Renfrew. Message Denny Welburn if you would like to purchase a copy. Meanwhile, here is a little video mashup to accompany one of the songs on the CD, played by Gary Comeau, reprising his performance on The Esquires very first single in 1963. It's a fantastic cover of The Shadows' Atlantis

It's been a little over one year since we started this project and with our donation delivered to the Alzheimer Society yesterday, that pretty much wraps it up. It has been a great experience for all involved and very nice keeping in touch with all of you through this FB page. Special thanks to all the wonderful people who came together to get it done.
