Given that many of the seeds of American folk music traveled across the Atlantic Ocean with the country’s early European immigrants, it is not entirely out of the question then that some of the techniques and sounds that evolved over the past couple of centuries should eventually double back. On Remember<\/em>, an album originally released in 2009 by guitarist Yair Yona<\/a>, American folk music has traveled through the Straits of Gibraltar and found its way to Israel.<\/p>\n

Reissued last year, Remember <\/em>boasts 10 masterful (and musically witty) fingerstyle guitar melodies embodied with the spirit of American and British masters of the genre and, of course, Yona’s own wonderful creativity. The tracks consist largely of fingerstyle acoustic guitar, with a variety of other instruments and different styles of music joining in on some of the songs.<\/p>\n
