Backing Tracks Update

Thursday, September 20th, 2007

Olly’s Guitar World used to be home to some of my own recording and also contained a lot of backing tracks for guitarists to jam along to. I know a lot of people come here in the hope to find some of these backing tracks.

I do have every intention of reincluding hem onto the site as and when I can. If anyone has any specific backing tracks they are looking for then please contact olly@ollysguitar.com and I will help where possible.

The majority of the backing tracks were from the legendary Joe Satiani which you will be hearing a lot about from me in the coming weeks.
