ABOUT OUR SONGS:
CAROLINA AUTUMN - (Jordan Lee's favorite) Beautiful blends of mandolin,acoustic guitar w/ vocals by Judy Hall. The song was penned by Lee written on highest pinacle mountaintops of Asheville, North Carolina in Autumn, 2000.

AMAZING GRACE - (guitar instrumental by Sam Pacetti & Jordan Lee)Our classic rendition blends fingerstyle guitars by two of the best, making Amazing Grace our #1 hottest selling ipod single ever. Expect no overdubs or special sound effects - only two experienced players (Lee on the Martin & Pacetti on the Taylor) in a double-verse version of the greatest gospel song of all time.

GREATER LOVE - The music was written in 1978 by Jordan Lee. 21 years later, words taken from the Bible (For God so loved the world...)completed the song. Judy Hall said we need a strong song of faith in Our Lord Jesus Christ, because "That's who we are!"

SOUND OF MY GUITAR - written & recorded by Jordan Lee in 1996 in the South Florida recording studios of Phil McArthur, Sound of My Guitar became an instant hit with locals and also Lee & Hall's most requested solo acoustic guitar song. But Lee wanted to enhance the guitar playing on the recorded version adding unique drama to match the song's words... "The most beautiful sound that I've ever heard, is a simple guitar with no voice no word"...
So friend guitarist Sam Pacetti from St. Augustine Florida agreed to lay down his famous 'fingerstyle acoustic sound' which ultimately gave the Sound Of My Guitar a magnificent classical/flamingo flavor. The result (listen to track 11) is utterly breathtaking!

  • author: Jillian

    Sound of the guitar is Smoothe, relaxing & already one of my favorite songs.

  • wouldn't mind coming to Florida but,
    author: MJ & Beth Richardson, Asheville NC

    wish you could bring your music to Asheville, North Carolina around late October, and sing your song, Carolina autumn. I have a whole new interest in Krispy Kreme Donuts each time I hear that song!

  • author: guitar, guitar, guitar!

    Mesmerized by the acoustic guitar songs, can't get enough & Judy's voice is utterly perfect on everything.

  • Pacetti reigns
    author: Bob Tanner

    Who can top Sam Pacetti for raw fingerstyle picking skill? Not Kottke, Emmanuel or even guitar pioneers Akins/Travis/watson. My hat's off to each of the authentic greats, but Sam Pacetti is arguably the world's best fingerstyle guitarist, pulling off astonishing sound techniques that defy the laws of logic and mesmerize the inner soul to the point of sheer unbelief.

  • unique
    author: MJ Baugh, Jersey guitar player

    a beautiful acoustic guitar song, quite relaxing and sensitive.Pacetti's guitar is outstanding and totally awesome vocals by MS. Judy Hall. Likely the perfect a singer/songwriter recording ever made.

  • Why not all acoustic guitar on your next CD!
    author: Mick Rosen

    Between your two albums there's enough songs to produce a nice all acoustic guitar collection. I own everything Sam Pacetti has, but that's not even a whole lot. Why not produce an all acoustic guitar CD with just the music only. I think Judy Hall is the one of the greatest singers around, but I still would enjoy an acoustic guitar album only, how about it?

  • author: Eric

    Sam Pacetti is so amazing, why hasn't he produced a second album?

  • A Keeper
    author: Terri Martin

    Great songs from beginning to end!

  • More than one song here
    author: Joni

    There's more than one great song here, everything a friend should be is awesome. Also Jamming the Blues, amazing Grace and Acoustic Finale are powerful guitar instrumentals. Greater Love is beautiful. But my favorite is, everytime we kiss goodnight- like it was written for me.

  • Yes!
    author: John Branham

    Not so into your electic writing skills as much as the exceptional guitar playing and Judy Hall's outstanding singing on your title song. I could listen to sound of my guitar a 1000 times and be completely amazed over and over again at each hearing!

  • The best guitar song
    author: Lydia Myers

    Sound of my guitar is the best guitar song ever written, an authentic guitar classic!

  • author: Jerri Toms

    Would like to get Mississippi Delta Frog Pond Blues, but where? Love sound of my guitar, Superb!

  • The acoustic guitar classic that's impossible to get tired of
    author: DJ

    What keeps 'sound of my guitar' so unique is: it never wears me down. No matter how often I listen, I need to hear it just one more time...

  • Good music and great guitar playing
    author: Lori McGee

    Love your CD cover, finally a cover with a touch of art, that almost tells a kind of love story,plus the songwriting is really nice.I like your theme song sound of my guitar,though it's not a pure instrumental, a great song nonetheless. But Jamming the Blues & Amazing Grace are my two favorites by far,that's because I love straight guitar playing with no vocals.

  • surfed in & gave your Cd a listen.
    author: Alda Vaughn

    pretty great guitar playing, and the female singer should have her own show! I really like carolina autumn,reminds me of home (I'm from Asheville)!

  • Sound of my guitar is what real guitar music is all about!
    author: Linda Taylor

    I never tire of your music!

  • Beautiful undistorted sound is everything!
    author: Dana Atkins

    Your 'sound of my guitar' is clearly one of the easiest-listening and most durable guitar songs I've ever heard! Please do a follow-up soon!

  • Coffee,donuts and the Carolina mountains of Asheville, Mmmmmm!
    author: Emma, New Yorker

    Just downloaded your wonderful song CAROLINA AUTUMN. The music and words, mandolin, guitars and backup vocals actually has me wanting to check out this incredible wonderland of mountains and intense natural beauty described so vividly in your song. I'll also bring some steaming hot coffee along with my Krispy Kremes!Your music is classic.

  • We were at your CD release party in Florida!
    author: Jim & Cathy Kinson

    We still play your music, even after a long time; and it always sounds new and exciting like it just came out for the first time. Glad to hear you're still performing at Juno. See you in October!

  • The jazz/blues are also fine but..........
    author: Tyler Brown

    There's quite a mix here; but for me there's something really special about Amazing Grace and Greater Love, which proves the power of simplicity with only instrumental guitar and the sweetest vocals I've ever heard in my life.(Really!)

  • The songs are great and there's more than one classic here
    author: Carl

    I also love the unmentioned quiet Acoustic Finale, a relaxing textured acoustic guitar song at the end that represents the overall laid-back theme,namely serene music.

  • Jordan Lee has written a song that offers hope and encouragement
    author: Nellie O

    The "Sound of My Guitar" is an inspiration to me, "music pours like water from a jar" is like being in heaven with the angels and the lyrics to "Everything a friend should is how I feel about my best friend Jesus, he is "always faithful, and "always true". He will be with you in the "Storms of Life". Thank you Jordan Lee and I hope to see this at the top of the Christian charts!

  • Polished fingerstyle!
    author: Jerri Kaiser

    I think all of the acoustic guitar songs are best. Prehaps you could release a future cd with just acoustic guitar songs such as amazing Grace, sound of my guitar, and Greater love;You're really at your hottest with these particular guitar songs!

  • Simply Amazing!
    author: Mike Jenson

    Your Simple guitar version of AMAZING GRACE is nothing less than Grand!

  • Just beautiful!

    A great performance, Sound of my guitar is the way I'd like to play guitar!

  • Your 'sound' sounds great!
    author: Carl

    Surfed in by accident. Good solid hooks and notable lyrics. I really liked Carolina autumn, beautiful laid-back music.

  • Bluesy & versitile
    author: Pat Daniels

    The Conga latino #8 is interesting, but I can't figure what the lady is saying in Spanish at the start of the song!?

  • Better than American Idol's best - way better!
    author: Kelly Coleman

    Cool original songs,I especially like sound of my guitar. Judy Hall has pipes that easily top anything I've ever heard; and your Christmas Cd is even better!

  • Thumbs up!
    author: Bob

    Good catchy tunes and guitar playing to die for!

  • I love great guitar playing and this Cd has the best..however,
    author: Jules Berger

    regarding your instrumental version of Amazing Grace: I wish you could have recorded a vocal rendition with Judy singing, otherwise 'Greater Love' is my favorite song with Carolina Autumn and Sound Of my guitar close second and third favorites. Judy Hall rules!

  • Hard to top!
    author: W.J. Toms

    I've never heard of Judy Hall, Jordan Lee or Sam Pacetti, until now. To me, this kind of songwriting, singing and guitar playing is the reason why some independent musicians are the true Kings & Queens of the music minus the business.

  • Great without special effects...
    author: Lynn Marks

    Sam Pacetti is one hot guitarist and this song captures him at his ultimate best! Without echo, overdubs or artificial sound effects, Sam powers out the notes with his lighting fast speed and flamingo diversity (three times the the music that it would take several guitarists to accomplish.) His quality-fingerstyle acoustic guitar playing is no less than drop-dead awesome. It's no wonder I never get tired of hearing track 11:Sound of my guitar w/ Ms Judy Hall, which remains in my player 24/7!

  • Romantic!
    author: An admiring Fan

    The music is reaches out, takes my hand and compliments my emotions with the sweet compositions so direct and elite as if they were all written just for me.

  • Daring, majestic and almost illegal guitar playing!
    author: Beth

    Exactly what I love!

  • Judy Hall's voice is the definition of greatness
    author: Pat Michael

    Sound of my guitar, is certainly above average; and I agree that Sam Pacetti is one of the most amazing acoustic guitarists ever; but this singer Judy Hall completely dominates the song from start to finish with her powerful silky-smoothe voice that more than tends to steal thunder from Sam Pacetti's otherwise magnificent performance.

  • You're a gifted songwriter and guitarist!
    author: BJ

    Your CD is Simply great and musically right to the point!

  • Beautiful melody & brilliant guitar improvs - a masterpiece!

    Mozart said: "melody is the essence of music" - knowing this, he would have loved Lee's 'sound of my guitar' - Everything about this song flows like a quiet stream of guitar melodys w/ classic Pacetti-style instrumental variations and that unbelievable glorious voice of heaven-sent Judy Hall. This is the best acoustic guitar song ever and Sam Pacetti is in my opinion way ahead of his time as fingerstyle guitarist!

  • Super! This is real guitar playing!
    author: John Reese

    Not every song on this CD appeals to me, but WOW do you ever make up for the ones that do. I think every guitarist should use 'Sound of my guitar' as the new standard of instrumental integrity much as Led-Zep's 'Stairway to Heaven' used to be.

  • Your song, Sound of my Guitar, is great. Who is that awesome vocalist? What an
    author: Steve Bray

    I just listened to The Sound of my Guitar, and was captivated by that female vocalist. Who is this woman with such an awesome voice, and where has she been hiding. I love this Lady!!!

  • Play it again Sam!
    author: Johnny L. W.

    I've own most Chet Atkins,Django Rhinehart and Gamble Rogers cd's,but my guitar collection was incomplete until Sound Of my Guitar!Sam Pacetti is still the world's great undiscovered guitarist!

  • Great music that calms the sprit
    author: J Maclearn

    I love the sound of my guitar,especially the mellow songs!The music calms me and provides a pleasant escape from life's day to day routines.

  • Romantic...inspirational
    author: Sandra Johnson

    What a surprise to hear new music with clean lyrics that actually makes sense.The songs touch a number of issues from romance, nature and inspirational.This CD should be at the top of the charts with 'carolina autumn' and 'every time we kiss goodnight' as singles.

  • Delightful are the poetic lyrics and lilting melodies on this mostly original al
    author: Kristina Darling

    I was delighted by the poetic lyrics and lilting melodies on this mostly original album. Jordan Lee has written some potential hits, I think. " Carolina Autumn," "Song of My Guitar," "There's a Light," and "Blues on Saturday Night." These four especially demonstrate the flexibility of his genius because they illustrate four different genres of music. I'd like to see him put out separarate albums -each with one genre: Christian, Blues, Latin and Folk. That he writes both music and lyrics and performs all his own music, to me, puts him in the same category as John Denver and Billy Joel. Judy Hall's lilting soprano voice is infused with warmth and the harmonies are tight and satisfying. If I'm any judge, I predict this group will go far.

  • Too cool!
    author: Sandy Johnson

    A great CD, I've been humming the songs all day!

  • Down to earth, eclectic, & music w/ heartfelt passion!
    author: Tony And Anna Ciccarelli

    We are music teachers, & very careful about all music purchases.This is why we've rated the Sound of my Guitar it's highest grade!If the songs,Carolina Autumn,Greater Love and Worth Avenue Jazz are main course; dessert would be Everytime We Kiss Goodnight!Very original & very well done!

  • I Love thi CD!
    author: Buddy Thomas

    Judy Hall really shines on this jazz & blues CD with 'Greater Love', 'Together' and the brilliant 'Sound of my guitar' theme! She and guitarist Jordan Lee have produced a true eclectic masterpeice that proves beyond any doubt great songwriting, brilliant guitar playing and awesome female vocals are very alive and well!

  • Incredibly innovative songs with magical and spiritual qualities.
    author: Loraine Palmquist & Fran He'rault

    Jordan Lee's latest CD Sound of my Guitar is incredibly innovative. Judy Hall's voice beautifully complements Lee's original lyrics. The traditional songs including Latino, blues, jazz, and Christian are rich mixture. The CD clearly has a magical and spiritual quality.

  • Awesome guitar work
    author: Ken Sifford

    Great stuff. I greatly enjoyed all the guitar work and Judy's voice is absolutely the sweetest around. The variety of styles is a tribute to their versatility. When's the next project?

  • A thoroughly impressive fledgling CD, with an abundance of heart & soul!
    author: Denise Jaegers

    No matter what kind of day you've had, when you play this CD, you're bound to relax and mellow out, putting everything into perspective. Everything from the lyrics, to the instrumentals to the voice quality expresses the heart and soul of all the artists who contributed to this impressive first collection of superlative talent.
