This is the real music. And these are the real musicians.

[@robertm2000]

How can they play so restrained and yet WAIL at the same time?! ARTISTS!

[@ghairraigh]

Andy loves everything Howard is doing, and vice-versa.This may be the best thing you've seen this year (so far). Andy is playing a 1965 Gibson Tal Farlow and Howard has a Benedetto 7-String guitar.

[@emmettjarreau720]

Great musicians... That rug tho 😳

[@ronj9448]

So many performance spaces have the obligatory Persian rug. When I converted the extra bedroom in my house into a "library / music " room my brother asked if I was getting one of these rugs for it. lol

[@tonyrichardsguitar]

What a great performance! These guys absolutely killed it.

[@alward5678]

I don’t think Andy runs out ideas and he is melolic

[@Zura-z6k]

these are great musicians but someone is making extra voice while playing and it is annoying!

[@deaterk]

Zura Lanch - look up Mose Allison, or Jimmy Smith. LOTS of very accomplished musicians (particularly in the Jazz genre) moan, groan, humm, and sing while performing instrumental songs or while taking a solo within a song. Sometimes this is in key/pitch, but often it is not.

[@Zura-z6k]

I'm well aware about it. Jazzmen have this habit and not only guitarists but drummers and piano players etc. I don't like it. Some guitarists are singing when they play solo (George Benson, John Pizarelli). This is different and this I like.
