In the 'favorite internet videos' thread, shirtless driver posted this video of Andy McKee covering "Africa" by Toto. I thought that totally kicked ass, so when I noticed that there were numerous other videos by Andy McKee, I watched them. This guy is amazing!

Check out this video, which is my favorite so far (I love a funky style). I figured the several posters who play guitar would appreciate these; I'd kill to be that good. Be sure to check out his video entitled "Drifting."

Here's another interesting piece. Nice blend of acoustic and classical as well as different picking techniques.

When you saw that, did you also think "Kill Bill"?

ETA: holy fuckballs, at about 2:45, that John Mclaughlin goes nuts. That's fast.

ETA (again): Nevermind, those guys are all ridiculously fast. Good lord.

That's Al Di Meola. He is to Ovation guitars what Ditka is to Levitra.
