THE SONGS I’VE PLAYED (VOL 1) is classical guitar music. On this recording there are no vocals and no gimmicks and the music hovers between timeless musical influences and the guitar’s Spanish kinship. Close inspection reveals well crafted compositions, seldom heard, mellow and rejuvenating to the mind, if consented. Over the years Todd Corcoran and his guitar have spent many hours alone in the shade, learning, playing, enjoying, music. This record is the first installment in sharing some of this enjoyment with you.
