these are worth checking out for their intense quality - but mostly the first one is extreme skill and very beautiful on ukulele. the second one is just fun.
Bummer... you'd probably dig some of his stuff. Check out his albums Ah Via Musicom and Tones. Listen to it all, because some of it's better than others and if you don't like the first song you hear, just go to the next one.
Listened to a bunch of it. Hes definitely got skill. Just boring stuff tho. He sounds like hes the guy who makes all those wailing guitar solo elevator tunes. Not much soul or originality. I can pin a lot of it to joe satriani ripped off, or carlos santana ripped. kinda weird mix. didnt do much for me. Not very hard either.
Eh, I guess he's not everyone's style. I don't think it's fair to say he writes 'elevator music,' but yeah, a lot of it is just solid playing and producing, with some good tune building and solos, which I dig. He went on tour with Satriani and Steve Vai, so I'm sure he's influenced esp. by Satriani. Some of his acoustic stuff is really good as well. His newest album was kind lame IMO - not like his older stuff. My favorites of his are probably 'Righteous' and 'Trademark'. Not what I'd call hard, but to each his own.

I'm pretty sure it's "I Love You Lord"
