I listened to some online music by this guitarist Alessandro Miani. He’s got to be one of the best players I’ve ever heard. Great technique and, mostly really great creative ideas.

When I think about the best demos of rock guitar I’ve ever heard played on any arranger keyboard, I think nothing can compare with this.

I did a Google on him and came up with just about next to nothing.

Alessandro Miani GOOGLE search

Anyone know anything about him?

The songs I listened to were as follows, but I don‘t remember what sites I heard them on:

Il Postino
Metallurgicall
Swimming with the Shark

Andrea,

Thanks for the links, but I'm really so impressed with his playing that I would like to find out just "who" he is? He's too good a guitarist just to be a Youtube star. He really makes that instrument talk. And his "rides" are incredible.

Now that you mentioned the Youtube links, I think that's where I first heard him play when I did a search on Il Postino (from the movie).

Do you or anyone know any more about this fellow.....his history?

Thanks Nigel, but I see I have to "sign up" to view his page. I've heard too many horror stories about Facebook usage, so I never "joined."

I'm just a simple person leading a simple life! I guess I'll have to stick to the "listening" only!
