He's come to Milwaukee a few times and has had great reviews.

I love the "Learn" section of his website.

Yeah, that is very cool.... more sites should adopt that idea.

Never heard of him before this, but I did like what I heard....I'll have to dig deeper....

BTW, after listening to all 3 songs on Monte's site, I would really love to learn more about his setup! Sadly, that's the one area of the site that doesn't work.
He has definitely got some serious mojo on that acoustic of his! It's very compressed with even some overdrive on that one song titled "Sailing" or something like that. It almost reminded me of SRV's tone in spots, which goes to show how big a factor those collosal strings that SRV used were to his tone.

Monte must have fingers like tree trunks or use some really light strings!

There's a man that knows the importance of feel and note choice.

Unfortunately I find his stock arrangements pretty boring.

Yeah, after I downloaded most of his stuff, I found a lot of it not as good as his version of Little Wing. His version of Sultan's of Swing is pretty impressive though.

Monte is a totally amazing player...LIVE...

His studio stuff doesn't come close to capturing his live energy...

I've seen him twice in the past year...brilliant...

Peace,
