Great as always
Jackofall I've been missing my dose of culture (with an occasional bit of punk)

Glad to have one of your excellent classical guitar posts again Jackofall, just beautiful.

[Bro]

Tame?! No way! i've been screwing a bit around on a classical guitar, but this beats the crap out on anything classical i have done!

Great job, reminds me of old pictures of Beethoven and Bach ect.

Love it!

Thank you everyone! I'm so fed up with real life getting in the way of my forum fun. I'm hoping for some free time soon.

Thanks for your question Ferryman. I did get a reply from the composer - we're meeting up for a beer session in a few weeks. If you ever get to see Gary Ryan play the guitar, your jaw will drop open....

I must have missed this the other week - otherwise this would've been the first of yours I heard.

We rockers and bluesmen need stuff like this to listen to

(actually, I come from a classical background, but as a chorister rather than an instrumentallist)

You're making me think I'm missing a guitar (among the, er, eleven I can see in the living room at the moment  ) ... none of mine take nylon strings... the missus is not going to be impressed with this reasoning...   

... actually she might be if I played her some of your tracks

[Geir]

This is why, when the civilization breaks down, all the girls will sit around you !!!

Just beautiful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

my fingers however just wont let me.

That's great news. He may be good, but you aren't bad yourself. And it's fantastic to have someone you admire be prepared to meet and talk with you.

Cheers,
