Pino Forastiere -- RagTapBoom

[Homerx30]

Pino sei un genio...

[jajajah86]

I assume he records with a piezzo. The string noise and the sound of the open string ruin the melody while I tap on the neck...

[Mariofan7]

it sounds a lot like Hedger!

[ClassicTracks2]

Pino's got a pretty pimp crib, yo.

[rclark23]

wow now that was so comfortably numb, seems like he lays the guitar down for a nap,, lols

[millennium1578]

Holy crap! Nice! It's screaming Hedges but it's got Pino written all over it!

[techno22322]

@chain24. Just listen to this beautiful piece of music worths more then 1000 of his words.

[alanofawesome]

Pure art.

Btw, tuning is DADEAC, i believe.

[jurkinas]

i wish he were not in Italy but in Lithuania :DDD

[ElliotTheMoose4]

This is pure magic

I love it

[MrRomania84]

[ozguitarist1]

[kenobi1992]

Pino is the master

[chain24]

[crousekenny]

[z454]

[drugantibus84]

ahhahahah mi scrivi la tab aahahhaahhaahahhaahha sei fenomenale

[A1i1988]

Pino is a magician musician :D

[RagdeAvez]

Now I can understand the complex songs, thanks to Pino.

I thought that he wasn't a good player because I couldn't assimilate his complex but amazing style.

[jayzee12345]

Thanks to all watchers who enjoy and post comments. Pino's music is complex and inspiring and he has a lyrical style in his compositions that is somewhat unique in this type of music. He also utilizes extended techniques to create a sound pallet that is very intriguing. I encourage you to post positively. For the competitive types, sorry, but if you can't play nice, I'll have to remove your comments.

[pandemonian]

Beautiful.

Remember folks. Music, is NOT a competition. Comparing passionate play by different musicians does nothing but cause problems. Just enjoy it.

[jayzee12345]

I agree, pandemonian. I think there are many great musicians who all benefit from what others bring to the table. I posted this because I find it particularly inspiring and at the time I posted it there weren't very many of Pino's videos on youtube. My hope is that you may explore other music by Pino and those mentioned below and enjoy them all. Peace.

[Ccbroo]

amazing, one of the most complex songs I have ever seen

[HanashiPP]

I could listen to 2:45 onward forever.

[moridinTKD]

I could listen to 0:00 onward forever ^_^

[ruckerd2324]

Dam!!!! Michael Hedges lives on! It's unreal how many he has influenced. Me being one of them and this Pino fella being one of the better ones! Awesome is all I can say

[G0D666]

Damn the camera angles, I want to properly see him play.

Otherwise, magnificent.

[jayzee12345]

If you'd like more information, try contacting Pino directly through MySpace. He actually manages the site (unlike many artists) and he's been quick to reply with me. Also, check out the other videos on his website (listed above). I'm sure he would appreciate your interest.

[mrchucknorris]

could be the next michael hedges

[Avagar]

sounds kinda like the "owner of a lonely heart" riff by yes, at the start

[monkeyflowers]

whoa. I'm speechless.

[FABBIONEE]

[fiddleit]

It's like a magic trick. Amazing.

[caglesgolf]

His hands are huge. Gift from the god of music.

[kappasf]

This is an amazing guitarist. He has such a unique structure to his music which makes him stand out compared to mainstream guitarist.

[napalmmice]

The flavor of Michael Kelsey in Gruvency.

-Napalm Mice

[WashICH1]

i like the candyrat guys, but they all sound exactly the same, the only exceptions being this guy and don ross... and dont ross just sounds like michael hedges sped up... so yeah, good on you pino, very creative.

[tcomneo]

This guy is really a very good guitar player...i love this stuff...and the sound is even perfect 10 points

[gauthierd]

excellent recording. the tone on some of the notes and progressions are fantastic

[seganor]

[nichols8917]

just to let y'all know, if you're in the NYC area, Pino is playing a concert at The Monkey on July 26th. their site is themonkeynyc dot com. hope to see you there.

[shiite7]

Wow, that was one of the most amazing compositions I've ever heard, amazing!

[bnksy]

Yes Yes, obviously the guy is a genius

But who plays the guitar like that?!?!? Just play it normally!

Also, i will hunt down his interior designer, who was bound to be a librarian in a past life.

[Shuyinz]

HOLY SHIT!!! This guy is incredible it looks so smoooth when he is playin with his guitar! I wish he could release tabs one day! :D

[kikkopaolo]
