I Spent A Lot Of Time Teaching

The Greatest Guitar Player In The World Today For Me Is Paco De Lucia, Who Is Actually Spanish.

There Is No Finer Guitarist Than Kenny Burrell

I Listen To Other Guitar Players, Yeah. It Gives Me New Concepts And Shows Me Where The Instrument Is Going For The Future And It Is Going Some Places. There Are Some Musicians Who Are Really Putting Out A Good Vibe With New Theories. I Try And Keep Up.

Larry Carlton Is An Incredibly Versatile Guitarist Who Has Been A Major Force For Guitar For Many Years. He Is Easily Recognizable - All You Have To Do Is Hear Him Once And From That Point On You'll Be A Fan, Just Like Me. It Gives Me Great Pleasure To Extend Congratulations To Larry On His 2011 George Benson Lifetime Achievement Award. Congratulations !

The Melody Is The Most Important Thing That Must Stay In The Minds Of The People Who Listen To You. No Matter How Many Notes You Play, You Can't Let Them Forget What The Song Is.
