I'm 47 and had basically the exact same childhood experiences. Been playing for 34 years now and here's two of my top 10 favorite players just chilling and helping me relive these memories. Both Nir and Josh are hugely inspirational even though I no longer have the desire to be a successful pro touring musician, but I will die with a guitar in my hands.

I’m 52. Playing as seriously as I can the past 10 years. Little Wing is still my pinnacle song. I will feel like a guitar player when I finally get that down. Love the interviews josh. Thanks.

Nir is great on so many levels! Great to hear from him - I loved the "I missed the offramp" concept.

Thanks for having Nir, dude is a monster player, and songwriter. Love all his stuff but II in particular is jaw dropping.

I paid $50 in the 90s for a Joe Pass instructional VHS that was waaayyyyy over my head, just cause I HAD TO watch him play.

So surprised to see you know all these jazz cats. NIr is one of the "freest" improviser I've heard.

Love Nir Felder. This is a real surprise! Fire in August is an.awesome track and really turned me on to his playing... in fact the whole of his second album is genius. Reminds me of the recent Big Vicious/ Ashivai Cohen collaboration.

Wes Montgomery was for me the first gamechanger in guitar. I was already into SRV and Vai before I heard Wes Montgomery and it blew me away. I was like, how do you do that with that big awkward guitar, heavy strings, a clean amp and no pick ... and how do those notes work?

Same for me, but it was Andres Segovia that blew my mind and I realized that I love all guitar music, no matter what it is, which then opened the doors to Jerry Reed, Roy Clark, Al Di Meola, John McLaughlin and I was then deep in the rabbit hole for life.

I am far from your level at playing guitar but I have music going in my head all the time also laying in bed and trying to figure things out things like that I hear something on the radio and hear it in my head and try to figure it out.
