Sheez! Playing traditional Blues pentatonics like that requires SOOOO many details SOOO many hours of playing and listening. There is a lifetime in those licks.

Josh really takes the blues and injects funk, country, jazz, the phrasing and licks are just so good, and never feel like he is just playing fast for the sake for it. Great note choice, great everyrhing. The best!

Josh is an absolute monster player, it's so inspiring but also scary and intimidating. I can't even fathom the amount of hours behind an instrument you need to be able to come up with improvisation of that caliber.

[JohnMcGFrance]
