It's a toss-up between Andy Mckee or Tommy Emmanuel for Mikey :)
This is how everyone first finds Andy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ddn4MGaS3N4 though, if I had to pick a favourite song, it's Tight Trite Night: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tn1d5DmdMqY Though, To be fair - Tommy Emmanuel might trump him on ability, it's hard to tell when the styles are so different.. Tommy letting rip with his (largely improvised) Guitar Boogie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lbvSBNLLoo Though, I can't mention Tommy without pointing at the simply -epic- Classical Gas :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQJ1k2HMoRU Them's my picks :) |

"Dadi died when N93119, the Boeing 747 on TWA Flight 800, exploded off the coast of Long Island. He was returning from the United States to France after being honored at Nashville's Country Music Hall of Fame. He is buried in Jerusalem, Israel."
And he was a close personal friend of Chet Atkins. Thanks, man, I never heard of him, now I'm glad I have. |

Rodrigo y Gabriela - 'Tamacun', I've actually heard of them, and it's been a while since I played this one. Again, excellent tunes.
