Miscellaneous

At the most recent Jazz Fest, one of the best sets I saw was Sonny Landreth?s. For those unfamiliar with him, Sonny is simply the best slide guitar player in the world. I happened to be in the front row on the right side of the stage, right in front of the big video screen. I spent half the time watching Sonny in the flesh, and the other half of the time watching him on the big screen, trying to see how he does what he does.

The guy who posted this Sonny Landreth video calls it ?the best video of him on YouTube.? Certainly the video quality is first rate, and most of the time, the camera focuses on Sonny?s amazing hands. So if you want to see how he does what he does, this is as good as it gets on YouTube.
