Your "chicks" and "skin color" comments have nothing to do with one being able to make great music.

Music transcends cultural and racial barriers touching the REAL listener's heart and filling his expectation for greatness and beauty.

A real musician will understand these words.

Hey you guys stop arguing. Martin Taylor is a guitarist of exceptional talent and a really humble guy. This video is supposed to watch and enjoy. Argue at the pub??? Just kidding. Peace

I remember Mike Vanden refretting my Yamaha FG140 when he lived in a flat in Luton about 35 years ago.He was making mandolins then.

It's always a treat to see Martin Taylor play. I own a 1990ish Vanden hollowbody jazz guitar. It has Martin Taylors signature on the back plate. I really like it.

love the song! willl try to find it on net! anyone had any luck?

I own a Vanden solid body jazz fusion guitar, there were only 3 made and all had different pick ups and different colours, there was a red sunburst (mine) a tobacco sunburst (owned by George Martins son) and a blonde. They all had maple fronts and different pick ups, mine are Seymore Duncan Jeff Becks and the blonde one had EMG's.

Tone's a bit thin. These Vanden guitars are a bit trebly for my liking.

@leloby Wow. I cant believe someone would actually write something so ignorant. Some of the best musicians of all time, most actually, are white. From Jazz, Classical, blues, rock to funk. But that doesn't matter because its only ignorant folks like yourself are the only ones trying to keep count. Factually speaking, black people would only be banging drums, kora's, and primitive banjo's if it wasn't for white people. LOL! I'm actually finding humor in your ignorance.

what is the tune at the start

I don't quite understand this comment. Why would an Englishman playing jazz guitar being liked by someone mark them as American? Martin is an amazing guitarist, regardless of where a fan is from.
