California Guitar Trio +2

A truly international ensemble, the California Guitar Trio consists of Paul Richards (USA), Bert Lams (Belgium) and Hideyo Moriya (Japan). They have an extensive discography spanning 1991 - 2016. This post is specifically about their album titled "CG3+2" which was released in 2002.

The +2 refers to Tony Levin and Pat Mastelotto who joined CGT on this album. As a side point, CGT toured extensively with Robert Fripp and Trey Gunn as the Robert Fripp String Quartet between 1992 and 1993.

CG3+2 is an excellent album and well adding to your collection. A personal favorite track on the album is What I Am with outstanding performances by both Levin and Mastelotto.

Give it a listen, you'll be glad you did.

Cheers!
