I just watched Kal Daivd performing live at Toronto's Beaches Jazz Festival and he played, amongst all other great tunes, this one. It was phenomenal. He got me stunned right there. I would say, he is a true artist and he might not be that famous, like big names such as xxxxxxxxxxx, but he will give you goosebumps whenever and wherever you see him performing. He is more than good.
I met this cat at my gig in Boston last winter, I knew he was a player due his attention to my performance and his comment that I, "played in tune".
Anyway, I got him up to do a few tunes at the end of my gig- he was incredible, the real deal, voice, guitar, the entire package. I was thrilled to meet Kal and his wife; who is also an amazing singer.
Check him out in Boston at; Scullers on Thursday, September 29th, 2011.
Not bad for a kid from Jeffrey Manor, Kal! Heard you on XFM yesterday. Outstanding! Glad the Blue Guitar is still around, after having helped design it with you.
KAl...... For the love of God,,,, i just wanna say thank you for playing this in such an astonishing and brilliant way. This literally makes me cry, its really emotional. Plus your technique is great, the way you control your tone is amazing....
1963 firebird WOW! verry cool guitar I have a gibson firebird and it's a really cool guitar with a incredible tone but this 1963 firebird with bigsby is the king of firebird and For me Kal David is a king player of firebird. THANK GOD FOR THIS ABSOLUTLY AMAZING GUITAR AND PLAYER.
There's not many video's that I will listen to immediately after it's done,but this was one of them. I've never even heard of this guy,but you can bet I'll be finding out more about him. The best version I've ever heard of this song-fabulous!
I jammed with Kal at the Blue Guitar a couple times back around the time this was filmed. A bassist friend of mine said afterwards that playing with Kal did something to me. He meant it in a good way.
Great to see how the notes seem to come from his toes and how he respects the essence of the song while his vintage Firebird cries it out. Awsom player, awsom guitar,great pair!
Fantastic

It is actually a 1964 Firebird V with a so called Lyra Vibrato (also found on SGs sometimes) - no Bigsby.
