I like! He pulls out much more emotion from a guitar than most.
Frisell falls under the Must Listen category for any guitarist.

Awesome. Does he use regular tuning here?

Agreed Tig.

Thanks R of G

Sounds like he's incorporating some guitar stylings from some of the African musicians he's worked with. Go to see Frisell live if you ever get the chance.

Without a doubt. He gets more out of one note than most other players get out of a dozen.

How about another traditional blues from the same performance?

This time it's Stephen Foster's 1851 piece "Hard Times"

Love it! Who else can take these old traditional - even obscure - pieces of the American song book and bring them right up to the present like Frisell?

Thanks for sharing that. Very cool.

I finally got to listen to it all, and there are some really cool songs.
Thanks!
