Nice. Easy on the ears. I liked the Classical Gas piece. Thought the Those Who Wait piece would sound good with some orchestration behind it.

I've not heard of him either. Thanks.

I also like the Angelina and Day Tripper/Lady Madonna videos. I looked him up on Wikipedia and he's been around for some time. Ignorant me......

And to think he only has 10 fingers like the rest of us.

Good stuff - thanks for sharing!

I knew there was a reason that I instinctly liked people from Oz.

Man I really wish I could play guitar!

 

[mudbug]

geebs, we should have started practicing 9,000 years ago to get as good as this

 

[GB]

Yeah I guess we are a little behind the 8 ball.

 

[mudbug]

maybe I could still marry him.......................

 

[quicksilver]

I don't think his looks are any great shakes, but you can tell he enjoys what he does, and that's the appeal for me. Alot of people do things well, but it's when they love it and becomes a part of them that make them artists.
I'm glad you enjoy it. (like Billy Joel, his looks-well- but artistry/talent and showmanship can't be beat.)

Boy, that guy can BOOGIE. Another guitar player I really liked was the late Stevie Ray Vaughan. Incredible.

Dontcha know Chet Atkins is smilin', smilin' smilin'!

What a talent! I'm hooked. Couldn't play enough of the YouTube pieces.

Thanks, muddy, for a real treat!
