[QUOTE="Rruuff Day, post: 211211, member: 2217"] Great tunes. All of them and in my growing up music era as well, though while admiring Michael for talent, never downloaded any of his music.... Last 30 years or so have been leaning more and more to the blues... SRV, Clapton, BB King, Gary Moore, Joe Bonamassa, etc. Highlight of mine was going to Paracho, Mexico, commonly known as the guitar luthier capital of the world, to buy my last guitar. The Town streets are lined with guitar makers and has been since the 16th century. Went into a shop that was recommended to me, Jesus Fuerte was the shop owner and luthier. After some broken Spanish chat, he handed me a guitar to play and then motioned for me to sit in his chair where he builds the guitars. I said, no, I can play standing, off my hip, and started to play, but he kept insisting. Finally he went into another tiny room and brought back a picture.... Was of him standing over Carlos Santana sitting in his chair playing one of his guitars. I then couldn't sit in his chair fast enough while I played . Carlos bought his guitar from him then, as I also bought mine. Had it signed by all the artists at the Zihuatenejo Internacional Festival de la Guitarra later that week. I have a number of guitars but that one always makes me smile..... [/QUOTE]
