Good Guitar

I keep seeing all kindsa folks posting videos and recordings of fav guitar performances who then rave about how great these–usually rock performers–are as guitarists.

*pfui*

Carlos Montoya left behind a huge (HUGE) body of guitar performances second to none, and certainly better than any rock performer I’ve ever heard, not that some of them aren’t fair git-fiddle pickers, for what they have to work with.

Malaga – Carlos Montoya

And don’t even tempt me to start posting Segovia performances (cos I can’t find any of his on imeem I want to post right now :-) ) … but since Woody remarked about a different performer, here’s one from John Williams (the guitarist, not composer/conductor):

Romance for Guitar and String Orchestra – John Williams

Oh, and here’s one by the guy Woody mentioned, Stevan Pasero:

Winter – Stevan Pasero

Yes, that’s mucho impressivo.

Have you ever heard of Stevan Pasero? A little new age-ish at times, but he did a great classical guitar version of “Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairies” that is really amazing.

Oh, yeh. And John Williams is certainly no slouch!

Thanks for the neat guitar work. For some reason I have an uncontrollable urge to drink Dr. Pepper; wonder why that is? lol

Dr. Pepper? Well, cherry Dr. Pepper with a lil added vanilla is always nice… ;-)

Indeed, Woody, he is good. Thanks for the tip.
