Nashville Guitars, a supergroup of well-known session players, creates a wall-of-guitars sound with four lead and six rhythm guitars. The effect is not as dramatic as you might expect since the players often double (and triple, and quadruple) each other’s parts, creating a full but not especially unusual sound. Nashville Guitars’ debut album mixes Joe Tanner’s originals with diverse cover material ranging from “Yakety Axe” to the Supremes’ “Where Did Our Love Go.” The concept is interesting, and the players are among the best in Nashville, but the results are more similar to easy listening fare such as 101 Strings Plus Guitars Galore than the hot country picking many listeners would prefer.
