I sent one of my CDs to Alvino a few years ago just out of respect. Not expecting anything back, I received this letter from him. Will always cherish it.

| The video just spins for me in Chrome. Right click shows that it is powered by JW Player. From what I can find, it doesn't require a plugin, but it won't play for me. |

| I got to see Alvino at the ISGC St Louis and was quickly a fan. Even at his age it was an inspiring and incredible experience. I enjoyed the interview and history. |

Really cool.. Stringy looks like something Rod Serling would have dreamed up.. CREEPY, and demonic looking.. However, the "talkbox" effect used was decades ahead of its time... An interesting, and kind of disturbing video! bob

very interesting indeed. it's also kind of a shame that he doesn't acknowledge all the great players who played jazz on the instrument.
I didn't realize he was something of a frustrated guitarist. seems like that's where his heart and his interests really were but he had an injury to his right hand. the stories about his friend Segovia were quite revealing

Scout says:it's also kind of a shame that he doesn't acknowledge all the great players who played jazz on the instrument.
My thoughts exactly, JB, SW, BE were greater players than he ever was..yet he does not even mention them..I was put off by his omissions. |
