notes
As a young child in the Bronx, Joe Giacoio was abandoned
in a music store and raised by a pack of acoustic guitars.
This explains a lot.
Joe has won awards for his strange guitar playing, and even stranger
songwriting. The lyrics of songs such as "Superman's MidLife Crisis,"
"A Man's Hair is His Castle", "She Got A Rock" and "Incarcerated Woman"
are accompanied by "guitar ninja" heroics reminiscent of Preston Reed
and Michael Hedges. Joe is often featured on the "Guitar Gods and Goddesses"
stage at the Falcon Ridge Folk festival.
He is a not just a member, but the President of the Chest Hair Club for Men and
also belongs to the Difficult Last Name Club.

Extraordinary guitar work combined with powerful insight on the human condition
author: Rob Lincoln, cdreviewsonline.comWhile his first CD, Superman's Midlife Crisis, had a number of wonderful wacky songs such "A Man's Hair is His Castle," and "Dr. Frankenstein's Dating Service" along with some more serious fare, it is this second CD, I Sing The Body Acoustic, where it becomes obvious that Giacoio is not only a fearless guitarist, playing live in the studio without any overdubs, but also a fearless songwriter..."God Knows" is simply one of the most important songs written in the last few years by anyone dealing with the moral question of war. It is so relevent today. It really makes one pause to think just what is going on in the world and what can we do about it. If any one song I have reviewed thus far should be covered by a major artist, this is the one. I suggest Giacoio get this song into the hands of progressive performers. Personally I can hear the Dixie Chicks doing this one. God knows we need to hear a song like this on the radio. Hearing this song is worth the price of the CD itself.
