2. He's a great guitar player; I recall flamenco, latin-flavored
type stuff.

6. Segovia never played Flamenco, right?
Manitas De Plata, maybe....

Segovia played "Classical" music. A whole 'nother beast from Flamenco.

8. I just googled, and not that I could find. Seems he was
classical all the way.

3. He seems a bit young to have studied w/ Segovia...
even if he did- we would have heard of him before this little vanity site. Smells bogus, but i can't say why. Maybe it's exploitation of a true master who is no longer alive to verify it... but that's just the cynic in me.

4. Kinda makes ya wonder, don't it?
Did he really study with Segovia?

Does he really know what he's doing?

Judging a book by its cover (which is stupid, I admit), he looks like a total whanker fake. He seems more interested in LOOKING like a "guitarist" than BEING a guitarist.

7. Take off the shades, just take them off!
I used to catch him on HSN, and I was mystified. By mystified, I mean slightly irritated. He could play, but I wondered why he was being so mysterious with the black puffy pants and the hat and the sunglasses.

I chalked it up to being a musician. And being embarrassed to be on HSN.

:shrug:

10. Not a fake.
I've seen him play on TV. He ain't the greatest, but he can pick a little. ;)

11. nope
Worked the resorts in Phoenix (where he got discovered) when I lived there and worked the same ones. I've seen him play close up; the guy is an incredible guitar player.
