Hi Frank,

I have studied privately with Dave, and your impressions of him, in my mind, are quite acurate. I have long since been upset by his lack of recognition, not only in the US, but worldwide. In my mind, having heard and studied with some world-renowned guitarists, Dave is easily one of the best alive in the "Modern Jazz" genre. His former students: Tuck Andress, Jason Becker, Will Bernard, Barry Finnerty, Rory Stuart and Joe Satriani (rumored former student) surely agree. You can hear his magnificent playing on the Miles Davis album On The Corner. Right now Dave is gigging and teaching in the San Francisco Bay Area. If you are ever there, you can be sure to find him playing in a small coffee shop on any given night. For those who are interested in recordings of and/or books by Dave, feel free to e-mail me, and I will contact Dave to see what is available. To the best of my knowledge, Dave has no recordings as a leader on a record label, so recordings of him are hard to come by. It truly is a shame. Thank you for your interest in Dave.
