Ambsace

Ambsace

The second album of astonishing duets by guitarists James Elkington (who has toured and/or recorded with Jeff Tweedy, Richard Thompson, and Steve Gunn, among others) and Nathan Salsburg (an accomplished soloist deemed by NPR â€œone of those names weâ€™ll all associate with American folk guitarâ€) is a sublime suite of nimble, filigreed compositions by two singular stylists. Belying its titleâ€”â€œambsaceâ€ is the lowest throw of dice; snake eyesâ€”the record thrives on a gentle empathy and generosity of spirit, sitting sneakily protean original compositions alongside gorgeous arrangements of songs by Duke Ellington and The Smiths at the same big hand-hewn table. â€œTheir playing and guitar tones are so complementary, so perfectly wed that I wouldnâ€™t hesitate to put the duo up there with some of the very best acoustic guitar partnerships: Stefan Grossman and John Renbourn come immediately to mind, as does the work of Richard Crandell and Bill Bartels.â€ - Work & Worry
