I recently purchased Not a Planet and I have enjoyed it immensely. Your music is wonderful! Kudos to you sir!

[BamLindsay]

[NinjaDeathTeddy]

[bcharville]

Don Alder... I have yet to hear him play a song I don't like. What an amazing musician.

From a new fan.

[MrTobytwirl]

Wow! I'd never heard of this guy til today, he's a great player.

[timquanny]

[pwilliams1888]

[Illso]

[eamonn1983]

What a riff!! Reminds me of Radiohead for some reason.

[MisterSheePz]

@eamonn1983 kinda sounds a little like there there doesn't it?

[pwilliams1888]

[SaitenWolf]

Am I wrong assuming that Don had a big influence on many other artists? Just heard some pieces of Antoine DuFour and Andy McKee, which reminds me a lot on what I'm seeing here.

Anyway - a great piece of music, thanks for sharing.

[MultiSteini]

[MrMinhtien]

[wilpwnsyou]

Dave Warren

[keithmurraymusic]

Don knows how to rock the acoustic!

[lucianocraveiro]

Great job :D

[guitarallday]

The ending is F'ing crazy.  Don Alder rules!

[remosche]

Lovely!

Is this fine song by Peter Finger?

[usaofguitar]

This song was dedicated to Peter Finger its written by Don Alder

[remosche]

Ah k very interesting thx. Did they do anything together in the past or why was this one dedicated. This tune certainly sounds a bit different to P. Fingers work. It carries me away..such a nice flow.

[usaofguitar]

Don did tour in 2005 with Peter Finger and are good friends so yes the song is more of a dedication.

[usaofguitar]

Also song will be released on the upcoming CD titled Not A Planet and it will be on a std baritone versus the low baritone as heard in this vid. Much nicer.

[remosche]

That is some fine info. Good onya mate.

[Cminor7sus4]

I've had the good fortune of sitting in Don Alder's living room and watching him play, for like, hours. He's nuts. You barely get a chance to catch your breath, and he's on to the next mind blowing string crunch. He's a man in constant motion. A guitar player's guitar player. It's not easy to understand this level of guitar playing mastery if you haven't actually attempted it yourself.

I build guitars because people like Don exist on Earth. Viva la Musica!

[josiahjones03]

I cant find this song on disc anywhere! I want it so bad!

[josiahjones03]

Does anyone know if don has this song on any of his cds, or maybe upcoming cds?

[guitarmusicrocks]

it will be on the new CD called Not A Planet for release by mid july which will include guests on some of the songs that include the drummer from K-OS and Michael Mannring bassist extrordinaire

[josiahjones03]

WAHOO!!!!

[josiahjones03]

by far one of the best compositions I have ever heard on the guitar!

[luvthegroove]

Great song! I'd love to hear it live! Very catchy theme- awed once again by the talent of this guitarist! ( the surprize ending was gret too!

[maesrtk]

will you allow your guitar to have slow sex with my ears please?

[Indieguitarist85]

that is amazing!!

[metalfreekblabla]

awesome

[Kert206]

very nice

[acoustic2rock]

I like the way he sits with the guitar. great song
