Things started to fall apart when the police siren sounded, lol, not! I didn't hear any siren nor did I hear you distracted.

I don't spend too much time in Show and Tell so I missed this when you first posted but I'm glad I checked it out today. Keep the videos coming, Mau.

Thanks so much, Dru.

I think I might be hallucinating the police siren. I seem to hear it again every time I play this piece!

Fantastic job Mau. Great recording technique, great tone, impeccable playing. This tune looks very difficult!

Thanks, Bill.

I'm not used to being concentrated for so long as I usually don't play covers of other guitarists. I'm glad I made the effort though. Reminds me classical recitals when I was a teenager...

I too try to improve my playing every day - I've just got a lot more room for improvement than you do, Mau

Thanks, Steve. Andy's music is very easy to listen to. As a listener I'm not an instrumental guy either but Andy has some nice catchy tunes in his repertoire.

Not sure if I truly "need" one but I like to pretend that I do...

Just for fun, I recorded a quick version with my Kraut OM:
