Just thought I would share what I learned today
I was on You Tube looking for some “guitary” takes on “Days of Wine and Roses”
Was enjoying and playing along with a Wes Montgomery version , underneath was a suggestion to listen to Pat Martino
So I did and then I was thinking what happened to him... well he had a bad episode in 1980 which was a serious brain injury. He lost all his memory and HAD TO TOTALLY RELEARN HOW TO PLAY
Now that is a lesson for everyone I think
Here’s Martino’s version of DOWAR:
