Darrel Scott is one of the most amazing guitarists on this planet. What a spell-binding version of a classic. Can't wait to see him again in Glasgow in January. Totally agree with kkelley; this is the standard to strive for, and what about that amazing picking style? Just awesome!

i love everything from Shostakovich to Miles Davis to Hank Williams to Sam Cookes gospel stuff, and damn, this is perfect. If youre someone trying to play guitar and sing a great song, in this particular emotive style, this is your standard to strive for. Wish he was more well known. Incredible talent. To me this is jaw dropping goodness.
