Are you familiar with this guitar virtuoso


I really enjoy excellent musicianship and performance and have always emphasized here (and elsewhere) that this is why I listen to music, and this "playing / performing has been number one for me with our hobby. Yeah, yeah, yeah, give me tonal accuracy, spatiality and an awesome soundstage experience, but it is this aspect of "music" that makes it all worthwhile for me. At 70 years old, I have followed many musicians of every genre of music throughout my lifetime. I have spoken here before about Matteo Mancuso as being, imo, a guitar virtuoso, and everyone should check him out. But here I encourage everyone to give a listen and vision of this fella. Check out Roy Buchanan on YT with Roy’s Bluz (live 1976). If you enjoy it, great. An unhappy ending to his life. Enjoy! and always, my best to everyone. MrD.

Roy's band used to be the house band at the Crossroads Supper Club in Riverdale, MD in the early 70's.... 

The question is, will he grow into an artist?  For those whose gifts enable them to acquire superior technique early on, it can be very challenging.

 

 

 

Danny Gatton is a virtuoso guitarist who isn't nearly as well known to the general public as he should be. Vince Gill nicknamed Danny "The Humbler." laugh

 

@stuartk - considering he died in 1988, he's not liable to grow into much of anything....
