Fareed Haque

Anyone who plays guitar should check out this site by Fareed Haque. Fareed played in a jazz fusion band called Chevere (based in Chicago) in the late 80's/early 90's. I used to have a friend that sat in on bass with those guys. He later went on the be the guitar guy on most of Sting's solo albums in the 90's. He has some great approaches towards perfecting one's craft on guitar. I love the way he thinks. Here is the site:

I remember you taking me to see Chevere a LONG time ago. How cool!

I remember reading several articles on him in Guitar Player mag. Also read about him in "Jazz" magazine, there where several people who stated that he was up and coming (again showing my age) back in the late 80's.

He has a very interesting approach in regards to his style of playing. Thanks for the link, gives me more to read during the night time.
