Jim Stahlhut

I am Jim Stahlhut. I am the guitar player you cannot see on the Dave Easley video. There were 5,000 - 6,000 people at the convention that the video was shot at. Dave's playing was the hit of the convention. Everyone was talking about his playing. I personally think Dave's playing was "too much", I love it that way. That's why I love playing with Dave, because I can count on him taking the music to the edge and driving me with his creativity. As far as the camera shots go, you get what you got. You should hear Dave play on my latest CD "The Angle of Incidence". He plays beautifully. Very melodically in spots and out in others. Seamus Blake is on that CD and he loved playing with Dave. Seamus loved Dave's approach. I recently gave a copy of my CD to Kurt Rosenwinkel. He thanked me 3 times and could not wait to hear Dave's playing and of course Seamus. I am playing with Dave at the Dazzle Supper Club in Denver on July 29th. I am counting on Dave playing "too much". I know it will be "too much" in a very musical way. Dave and I are also playing The International Steel Guitar Convention, St. Louis, Missouri on August 30th. It will be the very same band as in the video. Come out and hear it live. Dave does a great job of stretching the bounds of Jazz and the steel guitar. I am proud to have him as a friend and an occasional band member. Jim Stahlhut http://jimstahlhut.com/
