HOLY CRAP! John Jorgenson is a friggin' monster!!!
I read an interview in a guitar mag after he did a cameo as Django Reinhardt in a movie (don't remember which one...), where he said the director had been worried about having a five-fingered guitarist play Django. "No problem" John had told the director, "I only use two fingers when I play string swing". I thought he was joking - untill now. Again - WOW!
Anders (...who couldn't have done this even with twenty fingers... )
