    I signed a GREAT record deal with Capitol Records back in 1980. The deal was I sent them 99 cents and got to choose 10 cassettes and then I had to buy a cassette every month for a year. LOL.. only the old guys on here will get that joke.

    This album introduced me to Tim when it was released in '95. As a Glimour fan, Tim's melodic phrasing and bends blew my mind completely... Saw him live at The Baked Potato where he stood at the door and greeted each guest coming for the show. As a very longtime sub to this channel, I gave up hope of ever hearing about Guitarland. I was convincing myself that it never existed - or I had the wrong musician. Today is like Christmas for me! "One Desire" is definitely on my '10 songs on a deserted island' list. To now hear him say some of his favorite soloing is in that track made me grin ear to ear... it's been almost 30 years, but within my bucket list is to shake this man's hand again. Thank you for all of the wonderful music good sir! And I could do with an entire episode talking about "One Desire" and playing through it. Please. Much love...

    Tim you did me a kindness years ago. I was misinformed and showed up to your clinic here in Vegas right as you were ending. I was bummed and you talked a few minutes with me and then gave me your cd! Went straight home listened to it, and haven’t stopped. It’s the best gtr cd and my favorite. Thank you! Years later I did a session with drummer John Micelli (who had worked with or had hired you) He mentioned you,I mentioned your cd, and I found a kindred spirit through your music! And to top it off he told everyone in the room you made the best guitar cd ever. Mahalo again Tim!

      For those who have not met Tim, I can tell you he is as he seems on his channel. I approached him at a Gearfest several years ago at Sweetwater and I asked him if he would sign a Tele (which I did not have with me). He gladly agreed and told me to hunt him down at lunchtime. I found him talking with Paul Reed Smith(!) at lunch. I stood off to the side for a while so as not to interrupt. Tim looked up after a while and saw me. He excused himself and came over and graciously signed my guitar. I'm proud to have it on there along with some other legendary players.

Especially those where you discuss your thought process into creating parts with the supporting music theory and always serving the song (although all your content is great)!

The few units that are being sold on Discogs are priced really high...too high for my budget:(( But I still hope to get it someday and add it to my extensive album collection of 1800 CDs and 900 vinyl records. Keep up the good work, my friend. You are one of the most tasty and skilled players in the business (and one of the nicest cats too).

    Hey Tim! The Bodyguard soundtrack has a funny memory in my family. My sister was involved with Morgan Creek Films back then and they released the soundtrack for Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves which had one pop song and the rest was orchestra/symphonic music. They had farmed out the melody from some of the bigger symphonic pieces to various musicians and Bryan Adams used it in Everything I Do, I Do For You. That song alone put that sound track at the top of the charts for weeks. I think it went platinum in multiple countries. The next year (maybe 1992?), the Bodyguard unseated it quite quickly and has sold tens of millions since.
