Wow! He was a fantastic guitar player. Have you ever listened to Tommy Emmanuel? Australian guitar player. Not spanish style, but truly unbelievable. You should see him once.

Yeah nice!! Big 'Thank You'! That's a style I really like. Some swing, a bit of hillbillie (right??)... would have made a great duo with MK in his phase with the NHs

Yeah, he really is a fantastic fingerstyle guitarist using a heavy rhythmic style. He is all over the place genre wise. I don't know if you're into fingerstyle country blues, like Doc Watson stuff? He does that very well. Here's some Doc Watson: https://youtu.be/MrfYhgEcGRQ

I know. That happens to me a lot. There's not enough time to explore new music while listening to the stuff you already love and need to hear again.

I was just listening to this again. You know, whatever style of music he's playing, you can tell it's MK playing it. Like all the greats he has his own sound.
