As It Happens... CD
The release of 'As It Happens...' proves that even after 40 years in the music business Gordon can still deliver something different. For the first time ever you can purchase a complete, unedited Giltrap show in its entirety - all the chat, all the music, the works. It is the next best thing to having Gordon perform live in your living room!

This double CD release on the fledgling Panacy record label clearly demonstrates Gordon's gift for composing by drawing on a wide range of influences. Listen closely and you'll hear the rock guitar of Hank Marvin and Pete Townshend, the folk guitar of Bert Jansch and John Renbourn, and the classical guitar of Julian Bream and John Williams happily mixing with Celtic and other influences.


The set is typical of his recent stage shows, featuring a cross section of favourites played on Gordon's usual varied array of guitars, with the finale being a demonstration of the electric one-man-band version of 'The Dodo's Dream'
