About

From Wikipedia:

Carlos Alomar (born 7 May 1951) is a Puerto Rican guitarist, composer, and arranger. He is best known for his work with David Bowie from the mid-1970s to the early 2000s, having played on more Bowie albums than any musician other than pianist Mike Garson. […] Alomar has performed with a number of other famous musicians including Paul McCartney, Simple Minds, Graham Parker, Mick Jagger, Iggy Pop, The Pretenders for their album Get Close in 1986, and Argentine rock band Soda Stereo. In all, Alomar has played on a total of 32 Gold and Platinum albums. […]

Carlos Alomar contributed to McCartney’s 1986 album, “Press To Play“.

Carlos Alomar came in when we realised that there were certain types of guitar that neither Eric (Stewart) nor myself could play.
