    Ti me the sign of a great guitarist is when you recognise them after a couple of notes. Mark Lettieri is one of them.

      You're absolutely right, and I like when I hear something new, and it is exactly what you wanted to hear from the artist. This song just feels like it was next, the next step in Mark's progression of his style. It also sounds as if he's been carrying it around in his head for awhile, perfecting it, until he had to let it out and share it. Haha I always read way too much into these things, easily wrapped up into the why this or that is so entertaining. I 'll let myself just enjoy the surprise of a new piece and the pleasure of watching Mark master his craft.

      Not only that, but he's that technically flawless player that he worked on his neck placement and picking hand so much it's how people will say "Why does it look so easy!?" When it's ridiculous unique riffs/solos.
      Dude the softness he plays and his control over subtle mutes, hard to soft picking straight to finger style with gentle releasing only the wammy on a perfect harmonic of chord. That feeling is more an expression of HOW you precieve the insane riffs should be brought out from your own personality.
      I could go on, Jeff Beck comes to mind in that way. Also since I'm a bassist I obviously got to give it up to how Victor wooten while a tech God he's always more concerned with the presentation of the note and not the mistake of hitting a wrong one. Phew that was long

    Very fine bit of melodic fusion. I love the way he brings in the baritone guitar to thicken the groove during the latter third of the composition. The soloing is never mindless with Mark - it's always going somewhere. Thanks for creating this Mr. Lettieri - you are inspirational!

    A lot of what compels me to listen to Mark L. is a sense of "What's he got up his sleeve next?" There's always so many techniques applied, exciting phrasing and a mind-boggling assortment of chords and inversions. Everything is so appropriately placed too. Also, he unleashes the robot at 4:10. An ascendant man.

    Hi Mark,
    You're kind of rock-jazz fusion guitar hero that we all need, so refreshing to hear in this pre-calculated pre-compressed taping-slapping-popping modern guitar landscape.
    Ace job on soloing on that beautiful chord progressions.
    Especially kudos to songwriting, which is another ingredient that vastly missing today - songwriting and actually good SONGS!
    Would it be any chance to upload backing track of this song, so we others can jam on top it?
    Thanks and kind regards,
    Igor

    A very pleasant sounding bit of music, I'd say. The player appears to have very fine dexterity and understands the way this particular instrument can generate various sounds. A sonically well-conceived recording with the right hints of distortion at appropriate intervals. I would recommend that this Mark Lettieri chap continue to pursue his interests in this field. I believe that he as a modicum of aptitude for a career, but only if he continues to practice and strive to learn and grow every day. Nice sneakers too.
