ITINERAIRES - ORIGINAL WAYS A LONG ROAD TO STEEL...
It was the Rock ’n Roll of the Sixties, DJANGO REINHARDT and the SHADOWS that made me take up the guitar. Then there opened up a long road which wound its way through cabarets, bars and guest spots, ever imbued with an omnipresent swing style and the simple pleasure of playing music.

My guitar and I became partial to Bossa Jazz, and in fact, we still are.
There was a Shadows revival period too which left a brand we have never ceased to be proud of.

And then an old dream from somewhere between ’75 and ’78 came back to haunt me; I wanted to try my hand at the Pedal Steel Guitar. To my surprise, I found a single-neck Fender in the 90s at the home of a musician friend, although nothing constructive emerged until the arrival of Internet and the build-up of vital contacts.

At long last, in April 2002, a successful replacement was found to release me from my position as lead guitar in the Blue Shadows group. In the month of November of the same year, I purchased a double-neck WBS Pedal Steel and began to explore, and continue to explore, a whole new world.
