Wonderful! Just a couple of guitar virtuosos having fun!! In my own case....I agree with renowned writer G K Chesterton. "If a thing's worth doing....it's worth doing badly."!!!!

Thanks for the post Jim, hadn't seen that one before.

Now maybe if I just buckle down and practice day and night for the next 50 years I could get somewhere near that level.............

Thanks for that, George.

I've just ordered the Emanuel/Vignola CD for £11+. Some sellers connected to Amazon are asking £25+.

I am already quite humbled every time I listen to the posted soundfiles here. This has just taken away all my remaining confidence and dignity.

There are guitarists, and there are guitarists. I belong to the former category.

But what fantastic playing!
