Absolutely no disrespect intended toward any of the many bass players that accompany Mr. Montgomery. I witnessed Mr Montgomery play with out any accompaniment and he played better than this video... The bass player in this video got lost at least twice... it's the fact...
Why so many bass players? I'm sure none can keep up. This is an example of : "When does the man end and the guitar begin". Mastery! Thanks Monte! Come to Portland Oregon?
@TheHillhippy Oh lawd! Don't disrespect Maresh... this guy is the driving force behind Monty's mad chords... his precise fingerstyle makes the bass lyrical. This ended up being the album version of this osng, for instance. Maresh is like a metronome on crack!
They talk about virtuosos in guitar all the time. But what they don't mention is the RHYTHMIC virtuosos - that rarest of the rare. Monte's one of them. He's pure soul, and grit, and gut, and passion. AND licks.

You know what? I've heard this song for years and LOVED it and seen this performance about 40 times since it was posted. This is the first time I ever paid attention to the lyrics and you know what - what an asshole. I guess he's one of these guys that think women are supposed to "serve" him and in a relationship when it becomes his turn to give back? He leaves. I wish I never had the idea "hey cool - I'll listen to the words this time".
@NelsonClick Wow. You couldn't be more wrong. He's singing about women who have left him and he's regretting that when he was younger he did the same. It's about a life lesson learned. Oh, and it's a song. It's a story. Just like someone who writes a book, the story isn't always autobiographical.
'Saw him last night in Montreal (Canada) as he was closing act of Montreal's Guitar Festival. He was amazing, backed by great band too. 'Had the chance to met him after the show, he autographed my MM 1st & Repair tshirt , took few pictures and chat for few minutes. Priceless. Great guy. So much talented.

Monte is THE MAN, has been for the last 15 years, too bad he is not as well known as many Far lesser talents. But maybe lack of financial; success has kept his music pure.
