Jazz guitarists -- Rosenberg, Smith, Schmidt, Lagrene et al.

Hey King,

just noted this, missed it the first time I read your message:

"...My current teacher and mentor has studied with Johnny Smith and played everywhere. Broadway pits, solo tours of the states and europe, even sharing the stage with guys like Dorado Schmidt..."

Thats funny because I just put a recording in the "Hear Here" up by one Dorado's collegues: Stochelo Rosenberg with whom I often work. I like Dorado Schmidt, I played with the geezer a couple of times as well when he was in Holland and also with his son (also a great guitar player) but for some reason I prefer Stochelo a tiny, tiny bit although you gotta love Dorado's energy on stage. Whatta you think? This is really of topic, I know, but I was just curious!
