I do not like the way this guy plays at all. I think his sound and his time feel are both very hard to listen to.

@HendrixcommaMartin What guitar players do you like?

[HendrixcommaMartin]

@JazzVideoGuy In this vein, I love Jim Hall and Wes and Russell Malone. I'm a big Scofield guy, I love a lot of Firsell's playing, and I really like some of the newer guys, like Lage Lund and Ben Monder. Obviously there are a million other guitar players I like, but those are some of my favorites.

[JazzVideoGuy]

@HendrixcommaMartin I have to check out Lage Lund.

I heard about that fight @ smalls..I think some guy on stage was hassling his son who was playing piano and whitfield over reacted..

[JazzVideoGuy]

@wesgreen11 yikes!

@wesrollins Musically?

Good guitarist. The rest of the band were just as impressive too.

Wes? Come on, this guy's pick noise is unbearable.

That Bass player is one of the best. The guy's solos are so creative it's unreal.
