Players like Don Ross, Kaki King and Andy McKee are all brilliant as well. Their chops are just far and beyond any of the so-called guitar gods. They are masters of playing melody, rhythm and bass all at once, while often using the body of the guitar as percussion as well. [/QUOTE]
slightly off subject, but I got to witness Kaki King do this kind of guitar magic from the first row in a packed 350 seat auditorium recently. This cover of Don't Stop sends shivers down my spine!
