Utterly phenomenal playing with total passion.

Very cool! He's different from some of the 'note-for-note' prodigies in that he plays more like I expect most of us did when we were starting out (altho not at that level). Basically learn the important licks that stand out and just play 'in the same neighborhood and such that it fits' for a lot of the other stuff. Probably allows him to forge his own style while still having the influence of whoever his is copying.

Only playing for 2+ years? Incredible!
 
love this kid man...keeping it ALIVE! :rock:

i was on the road a while back and my boss calls me..."...hey man, where y'at?!" I says, well, i'm a few blocks away from office, w'sup.
"..you've got to swing back by, got someting i need to show you" Oh fuck me, i was thinking.
So i double-time back to HQ, trickle into the Man's office, where he has this up on his monitor:


:rock: on boss-man! I says.
 
He tucks his pick exactly like I do!

Obviously, Taj is heavily influenced by the stylings of Peter Green, Jeff Beck, Gary Moore, and Rory Gallagher. I especially love the fact that he does not rely on goofified high-gain amplification. He's too good of a player for that nonsense.

Hearing a 10 year old playing with such feel, and enthusiasm, there is hope for the future of rock music. :thumbsup:
 
Love seeing younger kids enjoying playing and showing their talents. Gives lots of hope for guitar in the future!
