I agree... great stuff.  Renbourn has been one of my favorite guitarists
along with Verlaine and Thompson for many years.  Back when I had time to
play guitar (and could read music.. long since forgotten, unfortunatey) I
had a book of his pieces written out in full classical guitar notation..
absoutely the most finger busting stuff I ever tried to play and he just
does it so naturally. Amazing.
Haven't heard about him for years.. maybe some of our British friends know
if he's still around?
