Re: Lari Basillio - Guitarist
I grew up in the North East (Stockton-On-Tees) and worked in my friends recording studio for a couple of years.
Back then, I was a mere beginner on guitar and every so often my mate Kev Smith used to come in to practise, record and rehearse and we would have the odd jam session in the practise room.
At 19 I would say Kev was the best guitarist in the country. I still think he is one of the most musical, talented players on the planet and has a musical style all of his own.
When Kev played in the studio all he could see were my other friends faces pressed up against the glass, listening to the most amazing playing we had ever heard.
Kev still lives in Stockton and teaches guitar to those lucky enough to get to know him.
I still almost cry when I hear this - you will simply love it.
It's an instrumental composition written by him.
Here is Kev Smith, someone I hung around with and hope to do again soon.
