A Little Too Good

Click on the link to hear an amazing acoustic version of "Somebody That I Used To Know."  I'm in awe of people who have the dexterity, control, musicianship, and talent to play a guitar like this.

Amazing.  Very very different, yet amazing.  Thanks for sharing MB!

Re: A Little Too Good

Wonderful arrangement...
When I hear a musician of great talent I'm reminded of a scene from "Amedius" When Salieri says something like"God has give me just enough talent to realise the true talent of a great composer" meaning of course Mozart..
I'm no Salieri.. but it rings true for me..
Thanks for the share..

The function of music is to liberate in the soul those feelings which we keep locked up in the heart....

Yeah, an "interesting approach"  but one that I don't know if I really enjoy. It's almost too much. It's hard to explain, but something's missing . . .
