I am committed to writing and publishing songs. I have been composing and producing music, in one form or another, since the first time I picked up a guitar while serving with the 101st Airborne Division in Vietnam, 1969. I keep the following quotes hanging on a wall in my studio: "Get off your ass. Do something. That's all I can say to you." -Brian Wilson
	"Music breeds its own inspiration. You can only do it by doing it." - Burt Bacharach "If you spend much time analyzing it, it goes away. So, I don't spend much time doing that." -Harry Nilsson "Even Babe Ruth didn't hit a home run all the time." -Paul Simon CD: La Guitarra Romántica consists of traditional and modern Spanish guitar music by two very fine Spanish guitarists, a very fine European slap-bassist, Morton Davis on synth-bass, and a Los Angeles-based world-class father and son Latin percussion group. You will enjoy these modern Spanish guitar music with their lightening-fast picado leads, breezy habanera rhythms and beautifully played soft ballads derived from an impressive array of traditional and modern spanjsh guitar performances rendered in a comprehensive range of flavors and feels. Renowned, Los Angeles-based, world-class father and son session players who are responsible for elevating the grooves of countless recording artists perform the Latin percussion on this CD . Ranging from straightforward to exotic, the rhythm on La Guitarra Romántica is meticulously tight and includes many dynamic performances that lend incredible movement and energy to the tracks. Morton Davis plays synth-bass on various tracks, with a European guest filling in on slap bass. Evolved aesthetics and inspired performances on fine instruments are all present here. Please note: Due to contractual agreements that the percussionists, bass player and guitarists have with other recording entities, their names cannot be revealed at this time. The music on this CD was recorded on a ‘work for hire’ basis. All music on this CD was composed and arranged by Morton Davis. All rights to this CD belong to Morton Davis Productions.
About Spanish guitar A classical guitar, sometimes is also called a Spanish guitar (referring to its origin, not repertoire). The evolution of the spanish guitar and its repertoire spans more than four centuries. It has a history that was shaped by contributions from earlier instruments, such as the Renaissance guitar, vihuela and the baroque guitar. The popularity of the spanish guitar has been sustained over the years by many great players, arrangers, and composers. A very short list might include Gaspar Sanz (1640-1710), Fernando Sor (1778-1839), Mauro Giuliani (1781-1829), Francisco Tárrega (1852-1909) and more. By using their fingers, or more specifically fingernails and/or fingertips, to pluck instead of a plectrum or bow, classical guitarists can play polyphonic music with a sound unique to the family of guitar instruments. It is common to encounter classical guitar music that sustains two, three, or four musical lines or voices. The use of fingernails combined with some flesh of fingertips is generally the most accepted convention. However there are renowned players who do not utilise fingernails and prefer flesh over nail, examples include Fernando Sor and in his later years, Francisco Tárrega. On a classical spanish guitar, there is more space between the strings, and a slightly wider fingerboard than is typical with other guitars. This satisfies technical demands made upon the left hand for the execution of polyphonic music and the requirement that the right hand fingers pluck the strings. By using a combination of flesh and fingernail to pluck the strings, a classical guitarist is able to generate a wide variety of sounds.
