My name is Alessandro. I play guitar. Electric, acoustic and (little) bass guitar.Style: I moved from blues to funky to soul to rock a little bossa nova, and now I struggle with Jazz, where I mix it all up, swinging strings.Here 4 JazzDemos and 2 little songs (apologize for bad sound) that just dont fit anywhere else.I like the story of The Coriolis Effect:"After many years of friendship elie, matt, ned and coleen started... A BAND, we were a very good band. one day coleen disapeared, we searched for her for a day but we couldnt find her. After her departure we were bassless, and we would be bassless for many months following.Then on one cold winter night we found gus all alone in a dark alley with a guitar and a severe drug addiction. His personality was charming and his jokes we humorous, so we kept him. But we faced a mighty challenge. We had 3 guitarists!So matt decided to fill the gap coleen left, he took of the mighty legacy of becoming a bassist. Unfortunately the tones he created were unpleasureable, and we lacked a drummer in his absence. So he passed on his bass to elie, and he played it well.After a short while it seemed our music had become boring, we deliberated and came to the conclusion that a trumpetist was needed. And it was decided that matt would fill this position. However, the sounds that emerged from his horn were unbearable. It sounded as if the gods were farting on him. Matthew no longer would play the trumpet.When it came time for high school the band faced and unreasonable trauma, Ned was to go to Jordan, many miles away from the rest of the band at Riverside. Ned slowly faded away until we could only meet him a few times a year. Gus's drug addiction slowly deminished, and Elie adapted well to his new instrument. Matthew is quite an accomplished drummer, and Elie is a terrible singer. But we rockand then something happened and i dont know whats goin on now".YES SOMETHING HAPPENED, AND I REALLY DONT KNOW WHATS GOING ON NOW!!!!"
