Reflections by Ben Powell (DADGAD Fingerstyle Guitar)

[sgguitar77]

Beautiful composition, Ben. The vibrato is lovely. The cello effect is felt big-time.

I have just discovered Dadgad tuning but I never dreamed it could be this good!

Back to more practice methinks!

[BillyBoy777]

Absolutely wonderful...a soulful reflection of sunlight emanating through and around clouds at dawn...thank you!

[MrSkyche]

I only wish I knew how you played like this. This is my dream, to make music at this magnitude. I can not. No matter what I do, i can NOT do THIS. THIS is art. This is beyond beautiful. Words can not describe this. You can only get the full effect from hearing this. I love it. You are an inspiration to us all. Thank you for your gift to the musical world.

@MrSkyche Keep at it man, it comes eventually!

[AlanSturgess]

When I hear DADGAD used like this, my fingers shrivel and feel like dropping off. Maybe it's envy, admiration or plain old boring rheumatism.

Absolutely gorgeous playing. Thanks.

(If only Davy Graham was alive to see what his work has inspired).

@AlanSturgess Thanks Alan, your comment made me smile and brightened my day... :)

Cheers, B

Hi Ben, we also got your CD in Rome and it was a great felling listening to your music and traveling through the Mountains of Teramo. Please check some of the Brazilian Guitar players; Baden Powel, Bola Sete, Joao Bosco, Dory (Dorival) Caymi. Different style but great music. Cheers from Curitba, Brazil. Marcelo and family.

This is perhaps my favorite of your originals, Ben, and played with such feeling! It really settles my mind and enables me to focus on what I need to. Thanks, truly.

Another Ben :-)

Hi Ben! I can´t get "Reflections" out of my head and I´d like to ask you if you have TAB´s for this song.

Thanks

@Chriseverettsongs Hi Chris, I've just made a start at transcribing the album - could take me a while but there'll be TABs eventually :) Thanks for listening!
