How interesting to hear how he varies the themes (also in comparison to the known recordings), and how powerful it sounds ..... he is in very good shape. Thank you so much for the video (and all the others)
That's a big swig off that tawny port before he rips into this incredible display of virtuousity. Another sorely missed master that can never be replaced, on remembered.
Not sure what the first section is called but from about 2.30 on it turns into 'Poor Boy' which then turns into 'Steel Guitar Rag' all in open D tuning. Boy he was playing fast at this concert. Brilliant as always though.
well as long as it's here........
