i would never have even thought that Gershwin would sound good on guitar, let alone that it could sound that awesome!

I saw/heard Ken play this at the Banjo Jubilee in San Jose, CA. He is truly an amazing performer. He brought the house down...!

I think he did remarkably well for playing an orchestral piece on a single banjo.
It was different, but I liked it.
