Jaw-Dropping. It's gorgeous and shocking at the same time. Mr. Ross has astonishingly polished supernatural skills, on top of an unmatched musical gift. How is it possible that this video has been viewed thousands of times yet received just a handful of comments? How could I take all of this magic in and not express my appreciation for the performance and the channel owner for sharing? Thank you.
One of the all time greatest guitarist ever. Insanely gifted. Unique in ever possible way. Stunningly awesome attack and technique. I've played guitar since i was 14. I'm 74 now and have followed every major acoustic guitarist and Don is in the top 5 IMHO; Paco, Hedges, Dawes and Kottke are the other four.
Nich to see u mention Dawes❤ I am only in my 30s and think there always were great acoustic players. John Renbourn , Grossman, all these 70s pickers. Tommy Emmanuel. But modern generation totally put their own stamp. Percussion style, and incredible Rhythm, the use of flageoletts. If u dont know I recommend Thomas Leeb and Jon Gomm. Oh and Antoine Dufour is also in my "modern" top 5 for sure along Dawes, Don, Calum Graham. Fact, Don played with a lot of younger dudes. He was playing with McKee in his beginning, also had supported Jimmy Wahlsteen (who seemed gave up on his solo career) and had a great duo album with Calum Graham. Don did so much for modern acoustic guitar, like rarely anyone else
Don Ross is a treasure to the guitar world! I have seen his performances live a handful of times. Always amazing.
One of the best contemporary guitarist playing today, what a treat to find this video, Good work Newbury, keep up the tradition!!

Thanks for uploading! What a show. I just got a Beneteau guitar myself, they are amazing
Stellar concert of Don Ross ! Perfect set. Unfortunately, the sound recording does not do justice to the beauty of this performance.
The "BLUE BEAR" himself - just great !!
wow, don has some dark humor
You have to play such rhythmic compositions losing the rhythm ((
