      @ Szabó, interesting and coincidentally enough, I've been studying Hungarian on the side for 7 years now, and at second glance of your name I realized "That's Hungarian!" on account of the common Hungarian last name and that the last name is written first! Hahaha that's so great! Egészségünkre! 🍷😁

    No matter how many times I hear it (and I've been a Skynyrd fan since the 70's) it never fails to rip! And to think Alan Collins was only 17 when he wrote that! A-fucking-mazing! Nicely done, sir, and I love the Firebird!

      演奏が生き物の様に息をしてる様に感じます。演奏もモザイクの様に良い所のつなぎ合わせでリズムのズレも波形ズラしたら完璧な演奏に聴こえますが、ワンテイク特有の流れや勢いみたいなのがないのでワンテイクで弾ききる人かっこいいと思いますし。上手くないと出来ない技なんで生きた演奏をするかっこいいギターリストだと思いました。 質問に答えて頂きありがとうございました。
