OK, I give up.
Can never play like this man.
Can Santa Claus provide a pair of hands like his for Xmas if you are very very good boy or girl or is such a gift not available?
Please advise.

@AYFTracks: Alemic, kudos for following your own path, a musically-different one than your peers. I did the same as a young man and have never regretted my choice to listen to classic jazz, soul, blues, etc. while my peers were listening to rap or metal or whatever. It's like entering a secret and beautiful world, discovering all of the wonderful music of the past. That's how I feel about it, anyway. You can't go wrong with Wes, that's for sure.

@METALdude1195 yeah man, I got all of this mans records and as much of the videos as i could get my hands on...one of my fav guitar players... I like the metal scene too but this guys sound is cool as hell no matter what ur into if you have an ear for whats good

GENIAL, ESPETACULAR !!! Eu queria tocar assim !!!!

I don't really need to add anything to the other comments, but I want to just because Wes is so far beyond any other guitarist that it bears saying again. And the intro to his solo on this piece is ridiculous. I'm a pretty good player myself, but I couldn't get near Wes if I lived to be a thousand years old. Which is not likely.

I mainly listen to metal, but this guy is a genius and his music is amazing. Sad he died young.

@sseklof Thank you! The book was definitely a labor of love. I'm very glad you're enjoying it. :)

Amazing!! This is what we may call the "rule of thumb" for jazz guitar playing.



@tubeorvalve Yes, this is from the BBC TV show, Jazz 625. Look for the footage on Legends of Jazz Guitar DVD Vol. 1 and 2, among other places.
@sseklof The Jazz Icons DVD is also excellent, but the Jazz 625 concert isn't on there.
I love this concert so much that I spent a few years transcribing every note. Best thing I've ever done. :)
