I agree that Paco de Lucia is among the greatest guitarists I've ever heard, but he's also the best-known flamenco guitarist in the world. Very 'sung'. But wow, just full of fire.

Was it this joint? ;)

It was. Thanks for that, I've been racking my brain all night trying to remember the name of that pub. Brings back great memories!

Tommy Emmanuel is perhaps one of the best guitarists I've ever heard.

The first time I saw him live though was a funny experience.

It was some time in the late seventies I think. I had gone out on a pub crawl with a couple of mates and it was well into the evening or at least my blood alcohol level thought it was. We walked into one of the pubs and these two guys were playing a set. We sat down right in front of the stage only a few feet away and just kept drinking.

The guys on stage were Tommy and his brother Phil.

Tommy wasn't famous yet but there was no denying that he could play even back then.

Seeing a musician before he became world famous, basically in the inspiration time of his career, must have been magical.

Can you imagine going to a venue and seeing Elton John sit down at a piano and singing "Burn down the Mission".

How about seeing Pink Floyd at Philly's Electric Factory in 1968? Must have been at least 30 people there!
