  • Bravo

  • Can't wait to see these guys at Lawrence College next April i believe

  • Killer! Great arrangement. Love the claves rhythm above the nut in the intro. Thanks for that lick, sincerely. Kickin' swing in that samba groove. Very, Very fine.

  • Joining the cracks...

    In the "LAGQ Documental" video, the LAGQ members say they make it a point to get a variety of tones from the classical guitar, going so far as to put alligator clips on the strings to sound like a Javanese Gamelan orch. Using a plectrum is just a part of their tradition of widening the tonal spectrum.

    George Harrison played a beautiful solo using a pick on a classical guitar in the song "And I Love Her".

  • No no no Grande Kanengiser es lo mas cercano a un Dios de la guitarra excelente ejecucion del arreglo ni ke comentar realmente lo maximo . Este señor es uno de los elegidos para la orquesta celestial.

  • It would be nice to know what Ralph Towner thinks about this version: being him one of the best guitarists alive and the composer, his opinion would be quite interesting. I like his versions the best, cause he usually gives life to it improvising; however, this is intresting as well.

  • man i got a Cd of them at the library, the are soooo amazing, i wish there were more vids of them on youtube,

  • lol

  • For some reason, this reminds me of the first Spyro game. Especially the final part of it.
