Oldians, The/ Javier Martin Boix
Guitart Duet Tribute To The Great Ernest Ranglin
Javier Garca, guitarrist and band leader from The Oldians, invites renowned spanish guitar player Javier Martn Boix, for paying tribute to the great Ernest Ranglin, interpreting Big Business, an original song written by the Jamaican legend. In this great studio recorded tribute, The Oldians band leader, Javier Garca, plays the main melodies with his distinctive guitar style, while Javier Martn Boix (aka Javibi) joins The Oldians playing the picking. But, when the solo comes, we can assist to a conversation of those two guitars, with that jazzy language that them both learnt from Ernest Ranglin. Reggae producer Santi Mijarra, aka Puppa Shan, mixes the song and provides the dub version on the B side. Couldnt be anyone else, for mixing such quintessential tune, guitars and musical project. As Javier Garca says: "it is just a duet, not a guitar duel, being this our aim since the beginning". And Javibi remarks: "We respect the music overall, it is not a reason for showing any skills, and I think it is just what the listener is about to find. Big Business is a mission, not a competition".
