Love this, some of the most awesome use of guitar harmonics I've ever heard!

quality quitar picking != good music

that said, I do like this particular example, but there are lots of guitar player's guitar players on RP that I don't enjoy (Sonny Landreth for one).

No bongos. He's banging his hand on the guitar. The artistry is amazing. One dude and his art.

OK, so I was in the mood for guitar, so that's great.  I just want to say, more artists should do their work justice by insisting on a nicer cover

I second that.  Maybe it's because I don't play musical instruments, but I can't really appreciate this (or other acoustic guitar soloists) and it gets irritating after a while.

Quality guitar picking does not automatically make it interesting if you are not into single instrument solo music.  Personally, if I'm going to hear something with no vocals, then I would like it to have more than just one layer.  Give me guitar, bass, drums, and any other instrument you want to throw in there.  

Yes, this sounds like there is a backing guitar, and maybe some half asleep dude on bongos.  Or maybe it's just Mr. Bundy on a stool in the studio.  I don't really care either way.  I can appreciate the talent, acknowledge the artistry, and still find the song itself to be uninteresting.

I thought it was a good until the harmonics was over-used. Then it became gimmicky.
 
Agreed. This piece is also way too long. Completely unnecessary.
