You swing!

That is some fine music. I especially like the little syncopated fills you do in between some of the phrases. You have great swing sensibility.

Really nice technique and phrasing!

Excellent technique Niklas!! Great pick blocking and smooth bar transitions.

Man! Got that D8 sitting on your lap, no less. I just wish it was on youtube so I could slow it to half speed to learn some of those awesome licks. Guess I'll just have to pause every two bars.

Great stuff - inspiring!

Brad: Looks like A6 with an E on top. McAuliffe, maybe?

Yes, it says "Improvising on â€™Iâ€™ll see you in my dreamsâ€™. A6th non-pedal steel."

Sounds great! Thanks for sharing this with us.

Realy enjoyed it Niklas. Couldn't be better. I'm learning A6 now and obviously have a long way to go.

Relaxed and in control. Really cool. Good!
