Elliott Randall's Guitar Clinic

On October 5th 2007 Clifton College Music Department was fortunate to host a guitar clinic given by Elliott Randall. Elliott, a native New Yorker and veteran of many sessions began his career in the 1960’s and went to play with many of the best American artists, including Steely Dan, The Doobie Brothers and Art Garfunkel.

Elliott treated the students to an in depth study of his guitar style, backed by a live band of top West Country musicians. The session gave the students the chance to study a great player close up and ask questions about this illustrious career as a top session player. A very enjoyable evening for all concerned.
