Phil Sudo & Zen Guitar – Inspiring GET FREE
People have asked me why I called Devi’s album Get Free. Here’s the story.
One birthday a friend handed me a slim book titled Zen Guitar. The author’s name was Philip Toshio Sudo.
“That’s funny,” I thought, “I used to know a Phil Sudo.” I turned the book over and read that Sudo was a musician living in Maui with his wife and children. Couldn’t be the same guy. The Phil Sudo I knew was almost certainly still fidgeting miserably at his desk at American Banker newspaper.
That’s where I’d last seen him, back when I was a punk rock guitar player who freelanced for AB to pay for my East Village rathole. I’d traipse in to see the editor, ignoring the reporters snickering at my thrift-store dress and Doc Martens.
