Renaud Garcia-Fons

I stumbled across this video the other night, prior to that I hadn't heard of this guy at all. I was blown away, very cool stuff.

Nah, he's not that good, the loop pedal does all the work... Cheater... pffff ... ; )


On a serious note, that performance is outstanding, I ripped the audio a few weeks ago and it's been in heavy rotation in my player ever since.

He has a great album with his quartet called, "La Lina Del Sur"

probably one of my top 5 albums I've listened to this year.

Hi,

I'm currently woodshedding on the title track to the CD La Linea de Sur. Here's the melody transcription I did a while back.

I play the melody one octave down, but there's still so much to concentrate on...
