Hi,
James Muller is the lastest player I gotten into thanks to Scott Lerner.I don't know if any of you guys have checked him out because the guy is from Austrlia and his CD's are not easy to find at all.He is playing on Chad Wackerman's Scream CD that was out on the Favoured Nations label.Anyways,I think James Muller kills-he simply is a MONSTER.He plays/sounds like a mixture of Holdsworth/Henderson and all his aother influences but he also has something unique about him.His outside playing is up with the best.Here is his website http://www.jamesmuller.com .Let me know what you think and thanks again to Scott for turning me on to a great player.

James is one of the best new guitarists around, in my opinion. I've seen a lot of people call him a Holdsworth clone though, because of his playing on Scream, which is quite Holdsworth-esque at times. So I strongly suggest that people interested in checking him out should check out his solo album Thrum. It's all clean-tone straight-ahead modern jazz, and man, he KILLS! He completely has his own thing when he puts on that hat. Killer chops and time, and amazing lines.

He finally got a website too... www.jamesmuller.com I know there's info on his CD's there, and maybe some info on how to order them--not sure about that though.

His work on Chad Wackerman's latest album, Legs Eleven is in the same line as on Scream. Also check out Chad's contribution on the compilation disc Drum Nation (Magna Carta-records), with his track The Spell, on which James also plays.
