Michael Hedges was truly a one of a kind player. And here he's throwing down on a one of a kind instrument, the harp guitar. I loved his first few albums when he confined himself to pure instrumentals: though he was a fine singer I just wasn't as into his vocal compositions. He was just too good a player to sing! This is probably my favorite song of his and this is a killer performance.
Michael Hedges -- 'Because It's There'
BONUS -- Michael Hedges -- 'Bach's Cello Suite #1'
I'm a huge fan of Bach's Cello Suites and its always cool to hear a badass take a shot at one of them. It's not a flawless performance but a fine one (and I doubt I could do any better). All of his banter about driving home safely is kinda funny, til you remember he died in a car accident. Bummer.
