Among numerous talented players, flatpicking/fingerstyle acoustic and harp guitarist Stephen Bennett stands out as both a supreme melodist and groove master. Bennett recorded these 29 tunes in a single day. In fact, most tracks were completed to in one take. Add the notion of performing on three distinctly different instruments- a Morris 6-string acoustic, a 1930 National Steel, and a modern Merrill Brothers copy of a vintage Dyer harp guitar- and you have not only a Herculean musical feat, but a unique listening and viewing experience. 105 min.
