Subject: RE: absolutely beautiful guitar work
David, I have re-read my post and I would like to apologize for my comment which was crass, rude and totally uncalled for. I was unfamiliar with any of your work prior to watching the video of JJOMD and whatever my feelings about your arrangement might have been, there was no justification for what I said.

I am not the greatest fan of the Windham Hill school of (IMHO) self-indulgent guitar noodling, and I must admit that when I clicked on Dan's link and saw immediately that your arrangement had been recorded on a Windham Hill CD, that was it for me.

However, I have to say that if Leo Kottke was as impressed with your work as you say, then I have sadly mis-judged your abilities, and I look forward one day to being able to hear you play in person, when I have no doubt that my previously expressed opinion will undergo a swift 180 degree turn.
