Embark on an unforgettable journey through the sounds and stories that have shaped American music.

Pity the Genius: A Journey through American Guitar Music in 33 Tracks is a deep dive into the often-tumultuous lives of 33 extraordinary guitarists, capturing their brilliance, triumphs, and struggles through biography and musical analysis of seminal tracks. From Arthur Rhames' volcanic performances to the introspective elegance of Pat Martino, Joel Harrison encapsulates the essence of these musicians in a way that is both intimate and illuminating. The tracks he selects tell the story of American music across time and genre, representing jazz, rock, blues, country, folk, roots music, and more.

"This is really profound, evocative stuff-Joel is not only a great player, he's a great writer. Everyone should read this book."

-Mike Stern, Jazz Guitarist
