    Been looking for someone doing this for what feels like forever. You're the one and only i have found so far. Can't quite believe this is now a few years old.
    Great job on what is one of the all time best and under the radar solos there is imho.
    Just puts a smile on my face whenever i hear it and for a brief moment all is perfectly well in the world.
    More please
    Thanks

    I’m a super critical listener having been in the business of listening to soloed channels during live performances as an FOH man. I have never heard such a tonally and accurate performance of any artist that good before and it’s a hard piece man. Well done.
