    I was confused a bit with a "crazy be-bop fingerstyle players".
    Something lost in translation of sorts?
    But what a gem of the article though!
    Makes me wanna visit Paris for a couple of weeks so bad.

    Yes, highly interesting! Many thanks for this! I realise that I need to plan a trip to Paris soon. At the french forum someone was jealously complaining about not having a similar article available "in the language of Molière". We should feel very lucky.

    You're much welcome gentlemen! I'm really glad you liked the article.
    Buco, I was thinking about Emile Melenchon when I mentionned "Crazy bebop fingertsyle players"... Look for him on the internet, you'll see he can be a pretty insane player

    I just looked him up. OMG!! There's nothing lost in translation, it's exactly like you said; fingerstyle bebop. It's just that I've never seen one before. A guy with flamenco chops speaking bebop language. Pretty cool.
    Thanks!
    Mitch
