Dear guitar lovers, After being a sideman for 30 years I came to a point where I felt I needed to record my own songs I wrote for the past ten years. I can tell you it’s a complete different piece of cake if you have to call all the shots. But with a lot of help from my music buddies I feel we made a very nice album with 12 different flavors. Please feel free to check it out on Spotify and to share it with your fellow guitar lovers. Thanks for listening,Leendert
