The only possible improvement I can think of is that it would have been better with an audience. A big one.

I really hope Neil takes a look at this Mark because I would really like to hear about any improvements he could suggest. Wrench mentioned it was pro material, and I agree wholeheartedly from my perspective. The tempo seemed right on.

Your videos are always quality. Thanks for sharing.

Hi willem it should be assassination.
It means when some somebody kills somebody. Like John Lennon or JF Kennedy.

It seems Stefan Grossman and John Fahey had a bit of a love hate relationship. John Fahey repaid the compliment with a song called the assassination of Stefan Grossman.

There are no lyrics,it's just instrumental.
Don'take a shot at me for that,,only with the cam,, and now i understand the bleus

You gotta love the blues! The music that is, not actually having the blues. Mark that was way cool. I could hear the minor pentatonic and major scales in there (I think) I just couldn't pick out what key specifically. What scale patterns is that based on and what key? If I had to guess I'd say B minor pentatonic and B major.

I just don't have the right superlatives to describe how wonderful that was - so just pretend I've written them all here.... with shouting and exclamation marks (points).

My only questions are- Why aren't you professional yet? and Why hasn't someone tried to sign you up - or have they?

One day I'd like to be like you - without the hairy face and... well you know.. OK - let me rephrase that - one day I'd really like to be able to play like you.


Thanks

I really LOVE your work.

Michele
