Wayne Eagles - How's Now?
"There must be something in the Canadian water, as one more fine guitar joins an all ready impressive list of great musicians, north of the border."
"Although he was the first instructor to ever teach rock guitar at Carleton University when he joined the music department in 1992, guitarist Wayne Eagles' own music blends a variety of styles including blues and jazz on both electric and acoustic guitar. Last year he released his debut album How's Now?, showcasing Eagles' guitar licks in a style similar to 70s jazz-fusion performers like Gateway Trio and Miles Davis."
"...moves smoothly from jazz/rock, funk, and acid jazz to avant-garde and solo material."
"Thanks for the CD, its excellent! Always a pleasure to hear your music."
"I love it!"
"I really enjoyed it! The tunes are excellent and well paced. There are a lot of different moods and bags, but it really works! You've got to show me how to play those fast lines! Good luck with it."
"I was just listening to your CD ... That's some cool stuff. You have a lot of great subtleties in your playing. A lot of licks that I would never even think of doing."
"It's not surprising that [Wayne] Eagles takes a perfectionist's approach to recording . . . It's a testament to Eagles' musicianship that [Dave] Holland gave him the thumbs-up to record "How's Never" (the third track on How's Now?)."
