My desert rose
Born are the few
Always with me
Vision of you

I first took notice with High Landrons. That album was huge.

Fingerstyle Acoustic Guitar Ping!

Eric Johnson in a concert from 1984. Eric is one of the greatest electric guitar players alive today. His name is often mentioned with Joe Satriani and Steve Vai. Here he is playing a Martin D45. Amazing stuff.

Comments?

My personal favorite

A Tribute to Jerry Reed

First time I heard it, I thought, “Wow he must have really enjoyed ‘Smokey and the Bandit’”

Then I learned why he did dedicate it to Jerry Reed.

His electric stuff ("the Avenue") is also amazing. Thanks for the link!

Nice find. Reminds me of High Tension Wires for some reason (Morse)
