Podcast 167: Guitarist Michael Gulezian

On this week’s Fretboard Journal Podcast, we’re joined by
fingerstyle guitar legend Michael Gulezian. Michael is talking to
us from his new home in Paonia, Colorado and offers us an
insightful, thought-provoking glimpse into the life of a working
musician. He tells us about his childhood and the impact that
Middle Eastern music had on his own compositions. We also talk
about his time with John Fahey, Michael Hedges and Robbie Basho
and the sad downfall of Takoma Records. Michael also explains why
so many great guitar players have come out of Minnesota, talks to
us about his choice of acoustic guitars (built by frequent FJ
contributor Todd Lunneborg) and much more.


This episode of the podcast is brought to you by our friends at
Retrofret Vintage Guitars.
