🙌🏻 Bravo !! Thank you, Roberto; you captured Michael's sounds + vibe !! A wonderful tribute. ♥Michael Hedges !! Michael's custom Takamine guitar with his name on the headstock was the first low-strung guitar he toured with! 🇯🇵The guitar was a gift from Takamine Guitars. “…a Japanese guitar that i got from my last visit to Tokyo where i played also at the Hakone Sculpture Garden" (1989 Japan Tour🇯🇵). 💫 🎸🌳✂Michael Hedges 1992 Takamine LTD-92 acoustic/electric guitar advertisement print: "think Acoustic - live Electric - play Takamine". "The LTD-92. More than a cut above any guitar in its class." 😎"Michael Hedges has hand-cut the shrubbery in his yard into the shape of a complete 24-track studio. In his real studio, he plays a Takamine LTD-92. Photo by Jeff Sacks. Special thanks to Ed S. " ☺ ___ 🇯🇵 Michael Hedges' intro, "Live from The Bottom Line in New York", 2nd show, Dec 13, 1990 - filmed by NHK (Japanese public television) for broadcast in Japan. MH: “... and some new material* that i'm playing on a Japanese guitar that i got from my last visit to Tokyo where i played also at the Hakone Sculpture Garden (August 5, 1989) ... ➡ kzbin.infoUgkxk2UC5XDxwjTS8LFUpxmenAlcU6JIkjVm?si=GQ_2o3fVXe2of9cv ➡ Before playing Ritual Dance, Michael says, "It’s a pleasure to be here at The Bottom Line tonight and also in Tokyo and all around Japan at Live Bottom Line New York." kzbin.infoUgkxcyVUP-A15H2VuZiCZCPMePf0uDpn2ovW?si=3dMMa9gvSHPMTTD8 *( i carry your heart, India, Gimme Shelter...) {He also performed with his Takamine at Performance Hall, Musicians Institute, Los Angeles, Fall 1992} 🇯🇵Michael will always be loved by the Japanese people. He toured in Japan (1984 - 1991), appeared on many Japanese magazine covers and TV shows; and at least one his 'The Bottom Line(NYC)' performances was recorded by Japanese public TV. He is/was a rock star in Japan !! ❄🐕🇯🇵 Because It's There, one of Michael's best-known compositions (and his first one for harp guitar), was written for one of Japan's most beloved heroes, an explorer, who at age 43, died in 1984, during a stormy solo descent from Denali (Mt. McKinley)..... ‘This is music that i wrote for a movie which will not be released in the states~but it will be part of a soundtrack ~that will be released in the states~it’s about a Japanese explorer~ Naomi Uemura ~ he climbed many peaks and explored many places in the Arctic~he did the entire arctic circuit ☺of exploration.❄And this is music for him to go across the arctic tundra ❄with his huskies🐕❄it’s called ‘Because It’s There’🇯🇵 ➡ kzbin.info/www/bejne/oH-WZWZvoZl7iJI
