George Barker - Guitarist / Composer

My new single - my arrangement of "Amazing Grace" is now available at most online music retailers - iTunes, Amazon, Rhapsody, etc. Just do a search for "George Barker".

Just got my first review of "Amazing Grace" on Amazon:

"In George Barker's new single release, he offers up a sensitive, soul-stirring rendition of the timeless Gospel standard,"Amazing Grace". His skillful arrangement of this beautiful classic provides insight into his talent for creative reharmonization.

"Amazing Grace" opens with a rich, folksy acoustic guitar introduction that evokes images of a Kentucky front porch in a by-gone era. The song then takes us on a journey through a series of tasteful modulations with a smooth, funky backdrop before returning to the original key, where George plays it out with beautifully-phrased blues licks behind the melody into the fade out. Brilliant! This record is a MUST-HAVE!"

I am happy to provide music that people enjoy and am humbled by this wonderful review.
