Jumpin Jack

I love checking out this one man band's work every now and then and am always astonished.
I remember a guitar segment on a show called Showbiz today in the 80's with Les Paul, Al Dimeola, Steve Morse, and Stanley Jordan where I caught a part of this tune Jumpin Jack.
The part where he plays walking bass lines with his left hand while soloing with his right is fucking amazing.

Stairway to Heaven

What he is able to do never fails to amaze me.

I can understand the mechanics of how he does it, but knowing how he does it and being able to actually do it...well...not so much for me.

Thanks T'n'S's !

It always amazes me when I see musicians with unique method,
outstanding talent, yet are largely unknown...
Until this thread I wouldn't have known this guy from a fence pale.

Taking two hands on the fretboard to a whole other level.

Stanley Jordan never got the credit he deserves.
