Guitar magic...

[Jubal_Harshaw]

Didn't want to hi-jack Impressives thread for this but every time someone shows me a youtube link I end up browsing the related videos for a couple hours. The first one I saw was a guitarist I recognized:

Tommy Emmanuel
(Kudos to anyone who can name this song)

From there I found some truly amazing work by artist I had not heard of. Just search for Dominic Frasca or Doyle Dykes (looks like John Candy, plays like Roy Clark) and be amazed.

Just thought I'd share.

EDIT: Michael Chapdelaine blew my mind as well.

Check out The Hellecasters. It's three smokin' guitarists playing country fusion. There are several good albums. My favorite player is still Eric Johnson, but a close second to Stanley Jordan. For the style of this video, I love Phil Keaggy. He should be required listening for anyone learning to play.

Old Fashioned Love Song.

Three Dog Night, wasn't it?

Great guitar work. Wow.

I just found this on recommendation from a friend. Her name is Kaki King and she's freaking amazing! She's doing the hand doubling for the kid in the movie August Rush, which will be out next Nov 21st. If you have 3 minutes, do yourself a favor and check out this clip.

One of my all time favourites would be Michael Hedges (old hippie that i am.. )

How about Duane Eddy?

or Bert Weedon?

or his pupils? - The Shadows.

or for something completely different Andres Segovia - I went to a live concert in the early 1960s. I'll always remember it.

Great! I really should get over to the Tube more often.
