Greetings from the Grooveyard, people.
We are an independent record company from upstate New York dedicated to bringing you only the most outstanding "TOTAL GUITAR" of the highest order from around the globe, much like SHRAPNEL and FAVORED NATIONS (Steve Vai's label). As we enter the new millennium, it's painfully obvious that the major record companies have chosen to push the guitar in the "backseat" and jump all over the "mindless musical fads" and "bandwagons" of today, which unfortunately, these daze have little or next to nothing to do with the guitar or good quality guitar oriented music. Here at the grooveyard, we strongly believe in REAL guitar playing and everything that it stands for. Plain and simple,
THE GUITAR IS KING IN THE GROOVEYARD.
If you are a serious "heavy guitar freak" and you heavily dig
killer guitar music then you came to the right place.
Thanks for tuning in.
Keep the rock alive and keep on swingin' that axe.
JOE ROMAGNOLA aka *grOOveDaWg*
