    Michael your death has hurt us so hard. Your gifted skill as a guitarist and teacher were only matched by your lovely easy charm and humour. You had so much more to give, you left the party far too early. A huge void is left behind in the guitarist community. R.I.P

    I said it when he was alive and I'll say it now he's resting. That was one of the best improvisations I've ever heard. It blew Joe's very nice contribution out of the water. The variation, the emphasis on certain notes, the tone, the technique. Amazing. I've been coming back here for years. Brilliant.

    Hearing the news today, I tried to think how many hours of his UA-cam videos and lessons I've watched through the years and how he may have, unnoticeably to him, delicately influenced me. Our playing styles are by no means similar, but still, some of his things embedded into my playing, without even me realising before writing this comment. Thank you, Michael. Rest in Peace.
