I've been learning and playing the guitar since I was a youngster. My training came from the countless hours I spent listening to those big black vinyl discs. Played in a few bands along the way and still do. Like many 60's era musicians, I would say my influences are the likes of: The Beatles, The Animals, The Dead, The Stones, Cream, The Allman Bros., Steppenwolf, and CSNY are probably my biggest influences. I love great sounding acoustic guitars, mixed with tasteful electrics, melodic vocals, with harmonies thrown in. Equipment used: A couple of acoustics, some electrics, a couple of basses, some harmonicas, several amps, my voice, and occasional drummers/percusionist or a machine. I record to a Fostex VF160 DAW ( with several outboard pieces attached ) at my place, Jaxonville Studio. My music is acoustic guitar based but there are a lot of electric guitars in and about. Most all my songs begin life on the acoustic and grow from there. The Jaxonville CD is no exception to my love of acoustic folk rock but I would say it has a bit more electric guitars involved but still remains true to Americana Classic Rock. Music has been a very enjoyable part of my life and has allowed some very satisfying and personal expressions to come forward. Thanks for visiting, Farrell Jackson
