Nice to read that you learned cool stuff from another great player.

I like it. What a good arrangement/improvising! Excellent playing again.
Thank you budo for this! I searched for words to describe this performance/feelings…bright, soft, lightcolored, sunshiny, brilliant…well it made me feel good. Actually, soothing, dreamy, and comforting.

A short nice climax at 3,15 - 4,00.   And wonderful ending from 4,31 - was waiting, where are the ending chords ? And then, at about 4,46, there!
The ending this time, actually, a cleverness in execution, an ingenious ending!

You put a smile on my face with your music, which was much needed today!

Because,
I received a message today from the x-ray doctor saying, that, unfortunately, I still have scars in my lungs after my terrible A virus infection when I spat and coughed up blood for two months. And the scars make me short of breath easily. There is nothing to do about it. But listening to your music makes the day easier. Life goes on. You have to accept things, not bury yourself in musings

Waiting for next. Keep going! Thank you budo.

Best wishes,

Stig
