Here is a classical solo instumental I learned over a weekend in the Summer. This was recorded last year, but I love playing it now!

It's originaly done by Steve Howe on the album Tales of Topographic Oceans by Yes; an acoustic medly in the epic, "The Ancient", this song stems back to 73 i believe...

I listened. that's incredible guitar playing and incredible music in general. Good stuff. over my head but very nice to sit back and listen to.

Very nice job Fire......I went through a spell last year where all I did was play classical stuff so I really enjoyed listening to it. Not sure if you've ever tried playing Triumph's "Petite Etude", but it's a beauty....and FAST!
Once I get this recording thing figured out I may revisit that song and maybe post it. I've really liked the mp3's you've posted.....keep 'em coming.
