    This is the whole video that I recorded during the one hour guitar jam session. This experience was priceless. These four fabulous players were just having fun in front of us. We thought it was better than a concert. Hope you enjoy.

      I think you need a variety of things to be outstanding, great ears, innate sense of time, desire to practice, and an understanding family. These guys are playing for themselves, it's like they're communicating in a special language because they have learnt it. Each one of them represents endless practice and study.

    Michael Fix is widely acclaimed as one of the world's finest acoustic guitarists. He has won three Golden Guitars and numerous other awards in Australia, and tours widely throughout the world, particularly Asia, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Austria, and elsewhere in Europe.
    Australian born Golden Guitar award winner Stuart 'Stuie' French is a master of the country/jazz guitar-style (Les Paul invited him up to play when he was in New York!) and many of his guitar heroes are the great Americans: Django Reinhardt, Chet Atkins, Roy Nichols and Danny Gatton.
    William Thomas Emmanuel AM is an Australian guitarist, songwriter and singer who is known for his complex fingerstyle technique, energetic performances and the use of percussive effects on the guitar.
    Richard Smith is an English guitarist specialising in the fingerstyle guitar tradition of Merle Travis, Chet Atkins, and Jerry Reed. He is the 2001 National Fingerstyle Guitar Champion.

    I've been playing for 64 years, and this is the best jam session, including the younger, less experienced players, I've witnessed in that time. If you don't include the younger players, how are they to learn to be confident and learn to "have a go" and be exposed to really good players, so to improve their abilities.. Great video.
