My father took me to see Chuck Mangione back in the mid-late 70s and this guy Grant Geissman blew me away and really changed the way I appreciated different types of music.
In my opinion Chuck's album "Live at the hollywood bowl" is one of the greatest albums ever recorded !
Grant is a huge studio guy so not exactly a household name.
One of my favorite guitar songs ever. The subtle drops and lead work is just amazing Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device
I saw Mark Knopfler play the Pavilion in Boston about 8 or 9 years ago and the whole show was amazing, but the Sultans of Swing was so good. He went off on that Solo for about 5 minutes and the whole crowd was air guitaring, overbiting, and dancing horribly, at least I was. Such a good tune.
While not my favorite Floyd song, most likely my favorite Gilmore solo starting at 3:17 and going all the way until it just fades away at the very end.
