Document 1 by Chuck Roth

The palette of sounds Chuck achieves with the guitar is moving. Not even a volume pedal, just two hands and six strings. I enjoy being hit by brief and unexpected melodies and then taken back to completely abstract landscapes. I love hearing a Stratocaster in this context; it isn't its usual place, its sound is so unique, and it adds an extra beauty to it all. The music is raw and fresh; I can hear how Chuck is working to make it happen, which makes me feel part of what is being developed. It can be aggressive at times and is definitely powerful. Rhythmic motives are set and shot down fearlessly. It keeps you there, engaged, wanting to see where the next turn takes you. It is such an enjoyable ride! - Luciana Bass
