Album

Connors dubs one track as a sort of complex and exotic chordal progression-based structure of strummed rhythms andor a tapestry of three-finger rolling. Connors solos over this landscape of dreamy, moody, surreal, and frenetic design. The effect is a ghostly dance of melancholy angst and passionate wailings. Theme to the Guardian is the debut album by American jazz guitarist Bill Connors. It was recorded in 1974 and released by ECM Records. Patterson awarded the album four stars stating, this release of Connors is truly excellent acoustic guitar work with some of the most unique compositions and playing style you will find anywhere.

Recorded shortly after his departure from Return to Forever, this is easily one of the most interesting acoustic guitar records ever made. On To The Guardian was originally released in 1975. It is a solo acoustic guitar with slight electric guitar overdubbing recording. In my opinion it more than stands the test of time, as it's part of ECM Records Golden Period. Guitarist Bill Connors was the original guitarist with Return To Forever. As the four star rating indicates, I highly recommend Theme To The Guardian. Read more.

Bill Connors born September 24, 1949 is a jazz musician. A legato technique master, he is equally adept at acoustic and electric guitar, and successfully played jazz-rock, free and fusion material in the '70s and '80s. His best early solos were in the jazz-rock genre, where his use of distortion and electronics was balanced by fine phrasing and intelligent solos. His first great moment of fame occurred when he joined Chick Corea's Return to Forever in 1973, recording Hymn of the Seventh Galaxy, though he quit in 1974 and was replaced by Al Di Meola.
