My teen years and guitar playing wouldn't be half as fun or funky if not for S.D. These songs were like anthems to me, even more than 'School's Out (for summer)" by Alice Cooper on the day before summer vacation. Well, plus SD's intriguing intelligent yet 'stony' words with killer hooks and guita...

Jim! One of the rare few fingerstyle jazz guys who I could hear filling in for Lenny Breau with his own sweet musical taste and talent, not to mention his singing full technique. The man is a musical masterpiece in his own right, like a swinging 'poem' written in Braile to be read by fingers spea...

@ AndrewGurn: Well said; Leo is like 'Prairie Home Companion' psychedelically mind-melded with a fingerstyle Timothy Leary on an old Dr. Demento Show. Baritone absurdist story songs delivered deadpan but with a gleam and a wink. Unique lovable original character and communicator.

Lenny B.'s final few 'theme and variations' spins through this tunes verse sections are as monstrously chordal, spontaneous and beautiful as anything he did, just in his mellower jazzy 'just doing my Chet-restraint-respectful playing choices right now' humble way. Lenny makes this pretty little d...

Damn, George curls his pinky under! He's a closet rocker.

Nice. Stereotypical hate crime talk and sarcastic flaming rudeness. You are obsolete and will be deleted from life soon, Thank...death.

I might have great technique and finesse like that someday...if I go to heaven!

Cool duet with The Breshman. Tom, that looks like one of your dad's old guitars. I didn't know you used your thumb over the neck just like he did.

John Knowles! Understated playing of excellence, beauty, and gentle virtuosity. Tommy - acoustic shredding and lovable ham/showman with charisma. Together: everything you ever need to know about being yourself and being great.

Awesome playing, good modal arpeggio shredding. Cuts off the heads (at the groin) of most loud mouthy drunk dudes out there who watch this and say "Yeah, I coulda done that in my sleep" or whatever. Thanks.

Excellent ending story, best use of music in TV history. Maddie, this one is now for you, too. Mr.E.

@Drewster58 BTW Marvel - don't change anything, you're close enough to perfect for me.

Nice sound on the electric nylon string, very nice chording, choice of bass note, and melody note brought to the forefront. Merry Christmas.

"The mind of god would be music vibrating through 11 dimensional hyperspace."

I believe! I believe!

Thanks, I haven't seen or thought through this particular idea of playing chromatic lines through ii V I. It works and sounds good: Great concept to use in different ways. Thank you.

Really nice jazz swing feel, great reharmonization & chord sub's, bass lines, and phrasing on the melody. Old, new, borrowed, & bright sunny blue. Has a Lenny Breau-like vibe; like Lenny on "Swinging On A Seven String." with Buddy Emmons. I'm stealing it!

When I saw Nickel Creek for their first time on PBS/KCET's Austin City Limits, they blew me away. Their sound, intensity, and tight bluegrass acoustic chops as inspired by modern electric alternative rock were like the brightest children of parents like "Muleskinner," "Newgrass Revival," and "Wil...

I always thought of this song in terms of the stages of life pondered to it's end, wondering what really comes after. The story compares and contrasts the convinced and committed christian true believer with the uncomfortably sincere protagonist admitting to honest doubts. but the problem is he'...
