Wow! This psychologist can mesmerize you with his fantastic guitar playing. The CD covers a variety of styles that highlight John's versatility. John flies across the fretboard in tracks such as Wakey! Wakey! and on the acoustic-driven One In Front. If you enjoy the musical works of guitar virtuosos such as Joe Satriani and Eric Johnson, you will love this CD. Pick up a copy today. |

-- BRAIN RESEARCHER'S NOTES WILL BE MUSIC TO YOUR EARS --

Psychology professor and noted research scientist, Dr. John Kline, puts his music where his mouth is in the newly released CD, appropriately entitled, "Instrumental Conditioning."
In psychology, this refers to behaviors that become predictably patterned by consistent consequences. Baby boomers familiar with the phrase will no doubt relate to Kline's metaphorical choice and arrangement of several tunes. The CD opens with an alarm clock leading into the upbeat, retro “Wakey Wakey”, and ends (as nightly TV programming used to) with an entertaining interpretation of our National Anthem -- the only cover tune.
In between, Kline's compelling blend of Rock, Jazz, Blues, Ambient, and Celtic influences can best be described as “New Age with Edge.” The unique flavor of melodies, textures, and moods is peppered with blazing guitar work, and the appealing compilation flawlessly intertwines infectiously energetic romps and passionate, evocative ballads.
Kline has been nominated for numerous awards on the internet site Garageband, and was named “Most Versatile” and “Prowar Champion” on Guitarwar. Reviewers have compared his fluency and style to iconic guitarists Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, and Eric Johnson.
In (an admittedly fuzzy) past life, Kline was a professional lead guitar player. Instrumental Conditioning showcases his formidable musical dexterity, inspired creative breadth, and surprisingly professional production skills. He does virtually all of his own composition, instruments, programming, engineering, production and prototype mastering in his modest, cottage industry home recording studio.
Instrumental Conditioning is a highly engaging musical experience with unusually broad appeal. As the title implies, listeners may find themselves reaching for it over and over again.
