'Picked In The Past' is the new album from virtuoso guitarist John Goldie. The album was inspired by the music that John grew up listening to and indeed made him pick up the guitar in the first place. The album contains 13 classic rock tracks (and the theme from Mission Impossible) all arranged by John for acoustic guitar. All the tracks were recorded in one take with no overdubs or studio tricks. What you hear is just John and his faithfull Martin guitar.

The album has already received praise form Brian May and Bill Wyman, whose both bands are covered here in the form of Queen's Crazy Little Thing Called Love and The Stones Honky Tonk Woman.

The album was produced by Nick Turner at his studio in the Highlands of Scotland and is released on the Watercolour Music label on the 18th October 2010. For more info email info@intimate-gigs.com
