WhoIsWho

BOYD, LIONA.

Born in London (on a lovely day in june). One of the top classical guitar players of the world.

She moved to Canada and later to L.A. and is a realy nice lady. She paints also; see my stationery, page 8.

Played in / with;

Gordons Lightfoot's band,

Chet Atkins; '78-'79,

Tracy Chapman ('89 live in Europe),

George Zamfir.

 

Solo-albums:

Persona ('86 recorded at David Gilmours studio).
I ask me why this album isn't know by the general public. If you like a little classical (-guitar playing) with a few nice guitar-solo's you must hear it. If you are familiar with the work of Michael Kamen (see the index) you understand what i mean. Is it New Age, Classical, Symfo? No just Lionna with;

Eric Clapton,

David Gilmour,

Michael Kamen,

Andy Jackson,

Andy Newmark- drums,

Ray Cooper- percussion,

James Guthrie - producer,

Yo Yo Ma.

A fine easy-listening classical-album.

 

Barok Favourites ('98) and more recent albums;.

The Spannish Album and Whispers Of Love.

A new Latin album, Latin Journey for which various guitarists such as:

Al di Meola,

Strunz & Farah,

Jesse Cook,

Pavlo,

Johannes Linstead, and

Steve Morse (ex-Kansas and Deep Purple)

played duets with her will see the daylight in 2002.

 

Some of her musical favourites are:

Segovia, Strunz & Farah, Julio Iglesias, Pat Metheny, Eric Clapton, Placido Domingo, Loreena McKennitt, Joan Baez and Pavarotti.

Re: David Gilmour on stage with Liona?
Nick Gielkens
Hello dear Liona, Hope you're remember me... Is everything ok? Is there a change you will perform with David Gilmour on his upcoming U.S./ Canada tour? Would be really awesome. Good luck, a lost friend from the lovely South of the Netherlands, Nick
