    It' obviously a great performance the Tommy's one, but I think also JD Simo here does a stunning job! The attitude, the singing and the sounds are just perfect!

I met him,spoke to him, he signed my guitar and a poster for me, and I will remember it for the rest of my life. As the great Mr Chet Atkins bestowed on him the coveted C.G.P. (certified guitar player) he is truly one of the greats, and a good old Aussie bloke you rock Tommy.
