Hell this is the first time i've ever seen him play a 6 string guitar!! this guy is truly brilliant and genuinely nice too.

It's too bad that when magazines do their "100 Greatest Guitar Players" lists that Leo doesn't figure anywhere near the very top of the vote. He deserves to be thought of in the class with Hendrix, Django, Segovia, etc.

AMEN to that comment brother...

This is Wonderland By Night... and it's not Chet's tune.
-
dude he stopped using fingerpicks 25 plus years ago, where have you been?!
-
right hand, that is
-
I do believe he's had some problems with his hands, urging him to drastically change his rigt hand technique ...

I believe he used both all throughout his career(fingertip and finger-picks). I think this song just doesn't have the "thrill" that most of his older songs have(I yell At Traffic). I have to say I really like "Two Hands, One Guitar, No Vocals" album the best! I love that "syncopated"12-string style!!

I was at this concert and I gotta say it wasn't what expected --- playing with his fingertips rather than picks seems to take away from his old style a little - it's a nice expressive sound, but I guess it's more that the tunes that have become a little more tame.. in my view anyway.
For anyone that hasn't got it, try and get your hands on the rare 'Live at NoExit' recordings... amazing.
I think this is the first time I've EVER seen him stand with guitar.
