guitar video links

Django Reinhardt--gypsy jazz guitarist.
One of the best improvisers ever.
Notice anything strange or amazing?

Andy McKee--fingerstyle guitar.
Not-your-usual tuning and style of playing guitar.
Pero 'yung puso, pare.

Jimi Hendrix--guitar legend (what an understatement) 
 and fearless experimenter of guitar sound.
Notice how the guitar still makes a sound while it's burning.  Haha.

Andres Segovia--the "first" classical guitarist
performing one of the most famous classical pieces
reflecting his genius and painstaking dedication 
to choosing which sounds communicate the music. 

And finally, how to listen to music.
Words and demonstration by a deaf percussionist.
