guitar pull
n.— «There’s a scene in Heartworn Highways, the late Jim Szalapski’s 1975 documentary on singer/songwriters, that takes place around Guy Clark’s kitchen table on Christmas Eve. It’s a “guitar pull”—a term used to describe an informal get-together of songwriters to test new material on each other, play each others’ songs and party. » —“Legends get loose” by James Kelly Creative Loafing (Atlanta, Georgia) Jan. 24, 2007.
