    This is such a damn good rendition. So true to the tone and dynamics, and of course he plays the thing virtually note for note. Very impressive, man. You definitely deserve more subs. To top everything off, there's no fluff. None of the CZcams sweetheart bullshit, long-winded intros with cutesy jump cuts and bloopers 'that I leave in because I'm so real' nonsense, or, the smug music snobbery. Just straight to the point. Beautiful.
