Synopsis
Album Description Dominic Miller is one of the most sought-after session guitarists of our time. He has been employed by Sting, Level 42, Mark Hollis (Talk Talk), Julia Fordham, Paul Young, The Pretenders, Manu Katche, World Party, Chuck Loeb, Manu Dibango, The Chieftains, Tina Turner, Backstreet Boys, Khadja Nin, Youssou N'Dour, Marc Lavoine, Ronan Keating, Steve Winwood, Sheryl Crow, Peter Gabriel, Rick Wright, Rod Stewart, Luciano Pavarotti and many, more! 1995 saw his personal debut 'First Touch.' 'Second Nature' followed in 1999, and then came 'Shapes,' an album with new interpretations of renowned classical works from composers like Bach, Beethoven, Elgar and Albinoni. With 'Third World,' Dominic Miller presents his third album in the line of releases featuring his own music--a production of soft tones, in pleasant contrast to the ubiquitous racket of our time and age. Terms like "grace," "amenity" and "sensuousness" come to mind while listening to the gentle play of this guitar virtuoso. Besides his job in Sting's band, Dominic Miller was the opening act on the 2004 U.S. Sting & Annie Lennox Tour. Similar CDs |
CD ReviewsThird World is WONDERFUL! Anna | Southern California | 07/01/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "If you enjoyed Dominic Miller's other solo albums, you will love "Third World", as well.
It is calming.. lovely music to have playing in the background of everyday life. "Seven Sisters" is a wonderfully upbeat (although too short) track on this CD. The last track, "Altea" is listed at 21 minutes.. the first part of the track lasts for about 3 1/2 minutes.. then there is silence until about the last three minutes. But, don't miss out.. the end of this track is a wonderful. It's a bit faster paced than many of the other tracks and includes some spoken word in the background. It's quite enjoyable. If you enjoy the guitar make sure you check out Dominic Miller. You won't find the rock guitarist that has earned him the label of Sting's "right AND left hand", but you will find an amazing musician driven to express his unique creativity through this beautiful music." |
