- After leaving Canada five years earlier, Lenny Breau returned to Toronto in 1981 to play an extended booking at the Bourbon Street jazz club. Typically he would play a set with a trio or bassist preceded by an acoustic set on his Dauphin seven string classical guitar.
The recording presented here is taken from one of those acoustic sets, date unknown. The improvised piece comprises elements of flamenco, jazz and classical and includes several of Lenny's signature techniques. Lenny did not announce the ten minute plus piece and it has no formal title.
1. Jazz Flamenco Fantasia
his improvisations sound better than anything I've heard in years
This is sublime celestial. Lenny is unique. Not compared with anyone
Simply incredible.
Jaw dropping. This is painting with music. This is some of the deepest playing ever done. Incredible. ❤
I can't thank you enough for all you've shared and everything you given to those of us who love Lenny❤ This one takes the cake.
I would have said no one could ever play such harmonics, but there they are.
The audio on this is phenomenal.
Lenny is the Man!
FABULOUS

Wow, this is a treasure
A virtuoso beyond compare in fabulous form. Thank you for this!
As always, AMAZING stuff!
Imagine the heights he may have reached had he lived!
R.I.P. LENNY.......
wow this is really a gem, thanks for posting this
I was fortunate to see Lenny at Bourbon Street (even shook his hand!). Such a sweet, gentle soul. Then hearing of his brutal murder a few years later was just shocking - I still can't make sense of it.
Outstanding. Thanks for posting!
Why this doesn't have 10 million views I'll never know. Chet Atkins was right.. Lenny is the best. Ravel and Debussy would have loved to hear him.
❤❤❤
I'd love to hear the full classical set this came from.
seven strings!
I think Lenny has the fishing line on his guitar on this recording
He turns guitars into harps, and then back.
He has Jhango type soul no? What would Segovia say if he heard this?
