I've seen Tommy Emmanuel live a number of times in the UK - he's a superb entertainer too, not at all serious and stunning live. He has a really whacked out transducer set-up in his guitars so he can do the percussive stuff - the highpoint is his tribute to Aboriginal music called "Initiation". You either love it or hate it, a "Marmite" song if you know what I mean. Thoroughly recommended for a good night out. Also, search YouTube for some videos of the man, he really is *that* good. Having said that, his older stuff with electric guitar does nothing for me... -- CardinalFang ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CardinalFang's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=962 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29827 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
