[John Wilson]

been browsing the guy’s channel ever since I saw that video. That guy is incredible.

Here's an instrumental acoustic piece to leave one in awe. Three of the best guitar players on the planet at the time. Paco has passed (RIP). John is retired. Al, well, he's still from Jersey. The song is Al's. Originally from Elegant Gypsy.
Shredding on acoustic; hope you folks enjoy.

Al Di Meola has always been one of my favorite blues guitarists. He does a mean Flamenco too.

Love it....the Jersey guy shows up in a long sleeved T-shirt.....lol!

Perhaps I'm too much of an ol' rocker....but I do prefer the sound of that acoustic over the two classical s....

Yeap, you can take the boy out of Jersey...

I agree about the sound. I think they still have a hard time today recording nylon-strung guitars from the concert stage. They always seem to sound like doo without the stay-in-the-studio mics used in studio albums.

Not wanting to stuff up the thread with AL,but here is a vid where it's just he and Paco. Al is on flamenco guitar, too. Guy's incredible.

exactly what I was wondering...

Pearl Jam again today, on Pandora, love how they mix up the music with same genre.

 

[J. Doyle]

best find in a while! Same feeling I got when I first heard Mandolin Orange....just a long slow "Whhhhhoooooa"

Thanks Wilson!

Mandolin orange just recently changed their name to Watchtower.....just FYI.

I doubt I'm the only non-hispanic dude from Texas that likes mariachi music, and nobody does it better than Linda Ronstadt. I play her Canciones De Mi Padre album and the follow-up Mas Canciones pretty often in the shop. I generally default to older country or newer Red Dirt/Texas country for background music, but can also be found rocking Amalia Rodrigues when the mood strikes.

Howzabout some dark, smoke-drenched Tiki bar surfy music? (Still pic, not much of a vid.)

I think it'll be a little singer/songwriter music for today's hand sanding session. This is James McMurtry, a live version of a song off his second album. I go back to his first two albums mostly. Maybe dig out some Bruce Cockburn later.

That is a SWEET tune...!!

Singer-songwriters, you say? Those first two McMurtry albums were great. Also liked, "We Can't Make It Here." Poignant. Describes this post-industrial metamorphosis my hometown has undergone. Anyway, another guy who can sing and write a little:

Came across this by accident. Promises excellence...
RIP Guy

Edit/PS: promise fulfilled.

 

[Daniel Macina]

Ohhhhh yeah! Not my favorite voice in the world. A little round with no edge to it in my opinion but the instruments are freaking amazing.

Grace is weird....I like Grace...
