Nice. It's hard to get the right feel when playing this style on electric. I agree with feter, you have excellent touch with those fingers to be able to pull this one off. Check out my latest song called Post Nasal Drip

Definitely baroque. And beautiful. This is fantastic! I am really impressed, and it's a pleasure to hear you play this on electric. Very clean, with wonderful, completely controlled slurs. The only suggestion I have is to try playing the bass notes slightly detached (you do this some of the time anyway), so that they don't continue to ring when the bass line changes strings... This is, of course, very hard to do, as I know, so maybe it's not even possible at this speed. This is a piece I have heard a lot, but you do such a fine job that I found it thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish. Check out my latest song called Scarlet Nightfall

I was tempted to say this is another string added to your bow, because I haven't heard you play this style before. Sounds as though you master touched this alright and with wonderful dexterity; excellent playing Mark, regards M Check out my latest song called Come Back Billie

Does sound a bit like the riff from "Mother Goose". I believe that Tull was a big influence on Bach. Check out my latest song called Blues in Bm

Terrific enjoy that around the circle type of folk dancin that this seems to present to me. Lots of nice chordal movement for sure. Bach is always adorable to play and with the electric guitar it shows that bach is timeless on multitudes of instruments including the electric guitar!

ELL- I want a copy of that album! I'm sure Bach would've written for the electric guitar if it had been around in his day. This is just so good. Really nice and clean. The lines sing through, so I can let my attention wander from one to the other - very satisfying listening. Yes, I'm sure you have eight fingers on each hand :) Check out my latest song called What a Friend We Have in Jesus

Lovely playing... This is a rich mix... beautiful Bach finger style playing. So big kudos right off. I might suggest lessening the bass effect(?) in the mix... i.e. just a little brighter. Whether or not... your command of the strings on the fret of the guitar on your knee is truly enjoyable. Cheers... Jack Check out my latest song called The Riverside (with Ed sloparts sitting in)

Yngwie... ...can play this faster... In fact, he can play two gavottes, a bouree and a travesty in the time it takes for you to play this one piece... AND he can do it in Spandex... And his hair is bigger than yours... He can also play it louder. Even so, I prefer the 'free jazz' approach of Nigel Tufnel... I keep wondering, though, what it would be like if some of these Bach pieces for the electric guitar were transcribed for classical guitar or lute or harpsichord or something. We'll probably never know. I WOULD buy 'Electric Lute Land', ya know. If you recorded it. I would pay money for it. I don't say that very often anymore, you know. Or do it, for that matter. Worth considering. Ed Check out my latest song called Next Time Around (w/jiguma)

I am currently working on a tribute to Yngwie entitled "Way Way Way To Many Notes".It's very hard to play, it uses the Swedish harmonic scale, diminished arpigios, and excerpts from Pugununi's caprice #911.The metronome marking is 450.It may be a couple of years before I can play it fast enough to post it.I'll let you know when Electric Lute Land is completed!
