デイルはイギリス出身のブルースハープも操るアコースティックギタリストであ る。エリック・ローシェに直接師事し、またトーマス ・リーブやミュリエル・アンダーソン、ドミニク・ミラー、アントニオ・フォー ション、ガスリー・ゴバンなどの開催するマスタークラスにも参加。
2009年には彼の2枚目のアルバムであり初のソロアルバムともなる「How The Light Gets In 」がiTunesを通じて全世界でリリース。 デイルはギター教師として、教えていた経験を活かして、自分の演奏技術に基づく有名な教則ビデオをシリー ズで作っていて、ポッドキャストやYoutubeを通じても多くを無料で観る事ができ る。 彼の演奏スタイルは独特で、実際にライブで彼の指や手がギターの上を飛び回り 、叩いたり、タップしたりスラップしたり、かき鳴らしたり、つまびいたりなど 、あらゆる方法で音を鳴らす奏法には目を見張るものがある。 彼のパフォーマンスでは、オリジナル曲に加え、「Billie Jean」や「She Drives Me Crazy 」「Zombie」などをアレンジしたものも演奏のレパートリーに入っている。

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this folk-carol on myspace... Poem 230 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (see my blog for details): CHRISTMAS SUNG SIMPLY
As gospellers have said, Beneath signalling skies, On land dusty to tread, A trough in a stable Was the strawy first-bed Of a divine baby - The forgiving Godhead.
A season for new hope - There then and here now; The yuletide of goodwill - There then and here now.
In respect of this chance, Beneath bright or dark skies, Faith's the star that we glance Attending Christ's churches And trying to enhance, With singing and ritual, Our God-loving stance.
My new record just came out this week on I-Tunes and CD Baby. I have included a video talking about the record, hope you enjoy it! Please leave us some feedback to let us know what you think! Thanks for your support.

PS: This album would make a great stocking stuffer ;)
In the magicalities of a could, Between the probabilities of a would, Beyond the trivialities of a should, In these ungraspable mysticalities There lies a secret a passage… To this extraordinary wood.
But for you, it unfolds easily and true And the only thing you have to do Is press play, and you’ll have a view.

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?
Let us present a little comment,
That in this very particular moment,
Presents happiness for lack of rejection
That turned into invisible connection
Of ThiSpace and ThaTime friends
Link so sturdy, that it never ends,
And a little video it sends...
