I'm not so proud to be Italian...

...except for only few reasons. Here are two of these reasons:
"Estate" by Bruno Martino and Raf Montrasio at the guitar. Obviously a PRS.

That man is a treasure. Just beautiful stuff.

Beautiful playing, wonderful tone! Thank you for posting!

 

[Dusty Chalk]

Sublime.

Is that a McCarty?

 

[Huggy Love]

Simply beautiful, one of my favorite standards, and his intonation is perfection!!!
After hearing that, I need to go re-learn the tune.

Dreamy. Thanks!

Thank you guys, i was sure that this it's a place full of musicians with good taste.
Raf Montrasio is passed away the last october. He was the guitar player of Renato Carosone, the first musician able to make a great musical fusion with italian tradition, american swing and newer (in the 1960!) rhytms never heard in Europe, like samba and bossa nova.
The beautiful hollowbody (maybe a McCarty Artist?) sings to my heart.

Thanks to you, for your kindness Bill.
If you want, please search for "Io che amo solo te", or "Maruzzella", both are sweet and they have typical italian melodies.

Every now and then you hear an artist that even though you don't know who he is, his pedigree is worn on his fingers and style.. this would be one of those people. Absolutely beautiful
