Its beautiful that he really has got even better with age, listening to this is mind blowing but he plays it way better these days, and that's weird to say when i could listen to this version a hundred times over. :D
and i got to play 1 of his matons once and they really do have the most beautiful sound you can get, cant wait til i can afford 1, i hear if you visit the actual maton factory you can get a major discount, I wish i still lived in sydney still : (
Wow, he looks even better playing than the current TE :P Makes it look a bit more difficult eh:P he also does a slightly more complex version then the ones I've heard...Very nice, thanks alot for posting these awesome rare TE footage!!!
No worries!!! My pleasure... the guy freaked me out all those years ago. I'd never seen a guitarist that could 'go out on a limb' solo wise improvising and still make it back without any scars!!!! I never saw him play the same thing twice and it was always interesting....A genius...
if this is what comes from embracing God, then LET ME AT HIM!!
