About the Author
Jack Eskridge is a guitarist, composer, and educator who has performed and taught full-time in the San Francisco Bay Area since 1967. In the late 1960s, as leader of the original recording groups Strawberry Window and Dandelion Wine, he helped pioneer the "psychedelic" rock sound of that era. In the 1970s, he played and recorded with a variety of rock, blues, fusion and jazz bands. Since the 1980s, he has performed regularly with his jazz group and is known for his original compositions, unique arrangements of standards, and a style which has been influenced by Wes Montgomery, George Benson and the late Joe Pass, with whom he studied privately. His other influences include Robben Ford, Larry Carlton and Chuck Loeb, in the blues and fusion genres. He has taught guitar for the UC Berkeley Jazz Ensembles and for Diablo Valley College. Currently, he is teaching full time at his Orinda, California studio, while completing a series of guitar instruction books for publication.
