These!
https://youtu.be/nY7GnAq6Znw
https://youtu.be/iIwbuS526PI <--- I love it when an aspiring musician gets to meet the musician he learned from.
https://youtu.be/-oVzB0zRBU0 <--- Anything he does.
https://youtu.be/9dX2Whr5ins <----- I bought this on cd before I had a cd player. I loved it that much. Also shows how long ago it came out. Fantastic album. He did most songs one time through with no overdubs or punching in. This song represents life to me. Love too, which is why it is "our" song...
These wouldn't embed for me... Sorry.

Tuck Andress is an absolute genius on fingerstyle jazz guitar. Blows me away. The acoustic percussive guys have a kind of sameness to them (to my ears) that sort of puts me off. It's kind of a "Once you've heard Michael Hedges, it's hard to not hear what they're ripping off from him" vibe. I know this is small minded of me, but there it is.
In any event, here are your embedded videos, and thanks very much for sharing with us.

Thanks Bagman.
I totally understand this statement. It sounds that way to me too. I can take it in certain doses. I also feel that way about certain singers. One song good, two or three songs ok, an album... no thanks. I still enjoy them though.
Not Tuck though. Send it in! I love Leo Kottke too. Sometimes I have to cut him short but I think it's like my brain need a little time to digest..
Atkins, Kottke, Andress, Knopfler, Emmanuel.... all awesome.

Well done to you guys. One of the things that really struck me was the quality of video footage and the camera work and editing of course on Rush R40. I've only seen clips on YouTube so far but it's on my list to get on Blu Ray.

I love gypsy jazz.
My all time favorite guitaris, Synyster Gates, did a series of Guitar Center master classes, and he played gypsy jazz quite well:

And this is more like his style in Avenged Sevenfold:

I dream of becoming as good as him aome day...

Well, one doesn't need to be good at all styles/techniques.
I've recently changed my picking technique after a looooot of years. It wasn't/isn't easy, but I find it so much more fun to play now than ever before.
I always try to come up with different challenging and weird and funny things to further my technique.
As an example: take any pentatonic scale but instead of playing it "normally" (going up) with two notes on every string going from the sixth (low) to the first (high), try playing every two notes on the sixth, then fourth, back down to fifth, then third, fourth, second, third and finally first string. In other words every other string. Much harder, but it sounds really cool when you get some speed going.
