Ted improvises on “Someone to Watch Over Me”, “You’ll Never Walk Alone” & “Our Love is Here to Stay” at Joey B’s Wedding reception

Another Abasi Concepts guy, blowing minds and upping the ante in the arms race that is shred guitar.

There may technically be better players out there technically. But for me, NO ONE puts as much emotion and nuance into his playing than Julian Lage.

One of the only recordings of (IMO) the greatest guitar player of all time that isn’t recorded with a potato. ;)

Allan had the improvisational skill and mastery that put him closest ever to being the John Coltrane of guitar. I had the honor of meeting him and seeing him four times before he passed. There can never be another Allan. Rest in Peace, guru.

IMO, this kid can play John Petrucci’s style better than John Petrucci himself. This guy’s playing is just mindbogglingly clean and harmonically rich. He deserves much more recognition.
