Jim Thomas of the Mermen is the guy that Joe Satriani and Steve Vai, and Al DiMeola and John McLaughlin go to see in San Francisco when they want to be blown away by guitar artistry.

Jim says he doesn't do anything that technically complex--but he is the most creative and original guitar player since Segovia--and the guitar is an orchestra in his hands. The Mermen's CD's are wonderful--but--like the Greatful Dead--you've got to see them live. They are currently on tour in the Southwest. Their web page is www.mermen.net.

Amen to that... Jim Thomas is incredible... Unfortunately, I'm located in the Northeast... I don't think I'll ever be able to see them... In fact, I don't believe they've ever crossed the Mississippi... Goddamn, though... I've gotta say my favorite of theirs is "Between I and Thou..."
