This is amazing. Billy Strings and Chris Thile riffing and shredding their way through Wild Bill Jones - a true masterclass.

Proper old school blues. Some bands are made of magic. The Faces were always a bit rough at the edges, but each one of them was a consummate musician. The sound quality on this is a bit poor, but I think it's worth putting up with.

Hi Michael - I've just seen this wonderful performance on the Jools Holland show. I've not seen Rodrigo y Gabriela before, but I will certainly be looking out for more of their music. They obviously have a great rapport - the body language is brilliant. He is a man who obviously knows his triads inside out - and her flamenco influenced rhythm style is hypnotic to watch. I love these guys. It would be great to hear your insight on their styles and techniques.

Cardiacs were more a collective than a band - the personnel constantly changing over the decades. The creative force and song writer was the much missed Tim Smith. Cardiacs were once described as Genesis on speed. This video is not pretty, it was recorded in a claustrophobic shed - you can hear the rain the roof at the start - and the band members are all a bit hot and cranky. That said, this is an incredible track. On the first listen you think, what the hell was that? On the second listen your hooked. A weird time signature, scales all over the place - and so, so tight. I love this. I hope you do too.
