  • In a world where everybody else is trying to be a single note soloist, it's great to hear a guy rip double stops and three and four note chords. Barney's way of doing things is becoming a lost art and it's really sad. People need to be reminded that the guitar is a chordal rhythm section instrument first.

  • @Modes9 I will do a Barney cover soon

  • There you have it folks. It's guys like Barney and Joe Pass who keep guitarists like myself humble, and happy to be so. Barney is just swinging and funking up a storm. Man, this is too good. Thanks!
