    Wow. Such a crisp style. Fingerpicking masterclass right here.

    My hero.... I'll never be able to copy him, but he gives me some inspiration, and I can actually play Classical Gas in a style that resembles his version. I've also tried a couple of his original tunes - Angelina and Precious Time, but my attempts are not identical and lack his flourishes. I'm flat out just getting the melody right and relatively smooth without making too many mistakes...
