I am a portuguese self taught guitar player wishing to exchange ideas, and play with other musicians around the world
I record guitar solos and improvisations over backing tracks made by some great friend musicians, others by me.
I used play often at the jamzone of the LesPaul Forum (www.lespaulforum.com) and the with my Soundclick Friends. Always ready to jam.
Hope you enjoy and your feedback is welcome.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I like to play live, but these last years i play mainly at home.
I wish i could join or form a Blues / Jazz Funk band
