I have seen him play this many times..but this is one of the best i ever heard. im sure Johnny is very proud! One of the best i ever heard. Can you believe those stretches??
Nice work ! We talked a few times on the phone.One time when you were in a hotel for Fender complaining how bored you were. Hope all is well. Got a new CD with Stanley Banks, Buddy Williams, Onaje Allan Gumbs and others . Getting ready to start a National Radio Campaign.
@KenJWC - What an odd comment. His playing is pure jazz. None of that classical, play the same thing the same way since you were 3 years old, bullshit. Classical guitarists are windup monkeys. Jazz guitarist are artist who compose variations on any given theme on the fly.
jimmy is the man... if you don't own his "solo" cd, your cheating yourself... a true master of the 6 string... and when he has 7, it just turns into melodic insanity....
Technique and good taste. What a combination. I had the goof fortune of seeing Jimmy with Howard Alden, Bucky, Martin Taylor and Frank Vignola on the same stage.
Saw Jimmy with Randy Johnston a couple of years ago at Iridium in NYC...they were covering for Bireli Lagrene when he no-showed it was awesome...there were like 10 people there

Love the warm tone.Some Jazz guitarists tend to have to much treble on that takes away a nice middle range that Bruno has here.

SURELY he studied classical guitar?

@KenJWC I don't think so. When I hung out with him
he never mentioned it. Except he did the wolfhart
studies on his own as a young kid I think.
