    Miniatures<\/em>\u00a0finds Rud playing and singing standards, the occasional original, and a humorous take on a familiar ditty from J.S. Bach. No guests appear, no overdubs were used to aid the production, and nothing takes attention away from Rud, so his split-brained brilliance constantly shines through. Most who simultaneously sing and play guitar tend to be forced by limitation to let one skill work in obvious deference to the other, but Rud\u2019s ability to separate and connect his guitar playing and vocal work is astounding. Yes, everybody knows him best as a guitarist, but that doesn\u2019t stop him from flexing his flexible pipes while working magic with his hands. Rud flies through \u201cJust One Of Those Things\u201d and never misses a beat, he\u2019s able to create space and atmosphere in his open approach to \u201cNature Boy,\u201d and he demonstrates extreme independence in his merging of vocal bass lines with fleet-fingered guitar melodies on a brief and impressive \u201cDexterity\u201d\u2026 Mike Rud\u2019s skills as guitarist, singer, songwriter, arranger, and technically-adept craftsman are all tied up together in this neat little package.<\/p>\n
