Tommy Emmanuel - classic piece in a cave!
Not sure the name of this piece but if you thought Tommy was just about country picking and Beatles medleys’ think again . . . extraordinary gift here
Albert Lee - “Sweet Little Lisa” [Telecaster Group]
ALBERT LEE “Sweet Little Lisa”
"For those younger players who think Mr. Albert Lee only plays Music Man guitars, here’s proof that he doesn’t!This clip comes from his instructional video « Virtuoso Techniques », the third volume in the series, where he breaks down his playing style, including his famous “Country Boy.”Here he’s playing “Sweet Little Lisa”, the song for which he recorded the guitar parts on Dave Edmunds’ album (I’ve already posted that video in this group, so I highly recommend digging it up). He’s demonstrating the B-Bender system on his three-pickup Telecaster.The solo goes over just three chords, and you get the feeling Albert could keep improvising like this for hours. Double-stops, bends, triplets… it’s all there.I’ll post the instructional package this clip comes from in the first comment. I owned a copy many years ago, and it really helped me work seriously on hybrid picking, especially all those banjo rolls. He covers a ton of examples. It came with a book, an audio CD, and even a VHS tape !" Telecaster Group

Lou Reed - I Love You (1972) | Guess I’m Dumb
Lou Reed - I Love You (1972)
"Lou Reed could sometimes actually be sincere and emotional - Pale Blue Eyes is perhaps the best example. Like that song. the mostly forgotten I Love You is both moving and very sweet. From Lou Reed’s much maligned first solo LP, which I ’ll admit that I listened to it once or twice and forgot most of it. Who wants to hear Steve Howe and Rick Wakeman play songs written for the Velvet Underground. But you’d miss out on this tune. Lou still can’t help himself in the end though."
Right this minute, baby now
I love you
At least for now, I love you
GUESS I'M DUMB
such a brilliant choice and a Sunday special . . . . . I love Pale Blue Eyes and this one slips the net so often! but wow what a song
