    Virtuosity squared. The bass player is great too and it’s amazing to listen to this but the appreciation grows as you watch the combination of passion, intensity and fun they display. There are other videos of them playing together live and how much they enjoy pushing each other is so fun to see.

    Tommy picked out not one, but no less than three different signature licks in Billy's solo, while holding down God's own fingerpicking pattern, and then instantly incorporates them into his own solo on the fly as a show of respect. What an absolute master.

    60 years with a guitar in his hands 24 hours a day and a kid half his age that did the same thing. Best all around guitar player alive today and arguably the best flat picker alive today. Plus haven’t seen Billy with that concentration look on his face very often.

    It is interesting to me that Billy seems to do most of his recording work with a Martin D-28 (vintage 1944 in this video), while he opts for a Thompson in his live concerts. They are both wonderful acoustic guitars, but I just find his choices interesting.
