Arlen Roth has been a respected rock guitarist since the '60s, when he used to release solo recordings. He eventually became a fairly well-known sideman, performing with artists as diverse as Pete Seeger, Rick Wakeman, and Paul Simon. On top of that, he also became an instructional guitarist with a series of educational videotapes covering a wide range of styles. His obvious talent for the guitar and teaching it has led him to a successful career without having to attach himself to a group or pop success. ~ Bradley Torreano
