    thank you very much ! i'm 73 years old. l started playing guitar in 1948 at age 9 . i played the night clubs 6 nights a week from 1960 to 1983 . then i got burnt out and quit playing guitar altogether till about 5 years ago when i started playing again and posting on youtube. :-)

    I think the arrangement is fine. As ever, you make this look ridiculously effortless. Great job.

    Love it! Sometimes the rules have to be broken. Reminds me of the good ol' days just jamming on those jazz standards like Just Friends with my dad (God bless his soul) on guitar and me on sax.
    Thank you for ALL your videos. I have learned so much from you on my journey to playing now jazz guitar.

    Wow! That new guitar is sounding great. But, of course, it is the man behind the guitar that makes it sound great and you certainly did that on this one. This was very enjoyable and I thank you for sharing it with us. Glad to hear your hand or finger is better now. Happy Holidays! Sam

    Hi Freddy! I've been too busy lately to check up on you... I am glad you are doing well and back at it. I also see you got yourself a new guitar (The Renaissance from Peerless -- one of Matt Otten's favorite guitars.) Sounds awesome, specially in your hands. You deserve it my friend! Just checked on all your posts since June to catch up. Great contributions. Thank you and here's my Best Wishes for a very Happy (and Healthy) New Year to you and your wife. XOX

    thank you very much Shaun ! it means a lot to me me that i get such a nice comment from a guitarist such as you as i consider you one of the finest cleanest finger style guitarist i've seen . i watch all your videos and to tell you the truth, i'm a little jealous as i played classical guitar for many years till i got nerve damage to my right hand and arm.i can't move my fingers,so i can only play with a pick.but hearing you gives me great pleasure . your great !

    Thanks Freddy, that's kind. Replying like this has given me an opportunity to have another listen to your fine playing on this toon, just lovely. Well, in many ways I'm jealous myself - I just never had the brain for jazz, and I wish I had. I'm a lousy plectrum player which is occasionally a bit of a handicap in band situations but we all have to make the most of the things we're able to do I guess :-) .. have a good weekend Buddy.
