Review
Stunning and Spellbinding is the only way to describe Adrian's performances.
The things that Adrian can do with a guitar have to be heard and seen to be believed!
His between songs story telling is also top notch.
If I had too choose a favourite album and track I'd say the album 'Guitars and other Cathedrals' and the track 'Pass The Valium (With Knobs On)'
