  • Craig is one of the best acoustic guitar players out there, hence important to listen to. Don't worry about how he does what he does (he doesn't). Just dig it. He's also a walking compendium of pre-WW II American music (when he walks), and unlike most fanatical collectors/historians/ethno-mu­sic-gynecologists (props to Rachelle Garniez for that one) he can back up his love with the ability to breath life into the music. I love him, and I'm grateful he's hanging with us on this planet for a spell.

  • According to the Oct. 2006 issue of "Acoustic Guitar", Master Ventresco uses a flat pick and his ring finger. That's it! Absolutely brilliant! I have to agree with Mr. Koehler, I've never heard a better ragpicker with a pulse. And IMHO, he is right up there with Blind Blake and RGD and all the others that have passed away. This is officially my favorite vid on youtube. Thanks so much for sharing it with us!
