A great artist, guitar player, thinker, and teacher - Martin Taylor. Beautiful playing. I also appreciated the interesting camera angle shots of your right hand. Always a revelation.
Great performance and video, though I'd argue that the Coleman Hawkins recording was more significant than Louis Armstrong's - that could be a youth bias though
Great playing as usual. Nice sounding small archtop. Looks like it's a pleasure to play. Notice you're resting it on your left knee. Unconventional. Pierre Bensusan also went to a smaller guitar as he got older and also rests the guitar on his left knee. Is the guitar size and placement easier on the body the way you play? I, who am on a totally lower level, also like smaller bodies as I age, and grow larger. The smaller body feels more comfortable and sonically balanced, less bass heavy. Now I have to try resting the guitar on my left knee. It will take getting used to , as for the past 50 years I've rested the guitarvon my let knee when sitting and playing. Keep cool. PS I don't see you playing Martins or Taylors. I'm sure they'd love your endorsements , but you have other preferences. I love Martin acoustics and Gibson archtops.

This how I dream to play someday
Som muito lindo
Amazing
really nice job on this one - is that Manu Dibango on the poster?
I really like your latest CD Love Songs. You should do a full CD of music played strictly acoustic or nylon string guitar.
In my opinion, Martin is the greatest leaving guitarist
How are you recording this? Direct or a miked up amp. It's lovely.
Great playing as usual.

I love you from japan
Of course the playing was extraordinarily good but this particular guitar sounds like it does have body and soul.
Marvellous. I too have recorded this standard. If you have time kindly see it...its based on billie holiday version. I am a beginner jazzist
Beautiful reharmonisations
Hi Martín, another Brilliant piece. Please when you get a moment could you Direct messenger me Please? Thanks. Scotty
He was way better when he was younger..too many mistakes now..
