Pasquale’s fingers are about eight inches long. Incredible playing. Such fluidity and beautiful intonation. Flawless to my ears.

Frank Vignola : as impressive and cool as usual. Pasquale Grasso : tranquillity, mastering his instrument with a gentle touch through his "spider-fingers". Gary Mazzaropi : a powerbass setting the tempo. What a great trio, what a great gig. Too bad New York is so far from France 😔

He has octopus fingers. Awesome!

Indeed. So glad Frank and Pasquale have different solo styles - variety. In that vein, love Frank's recording with Tommy Emmanuel, "Just Between Frets". Listen to "Django's Castle". A mini-masterpiece

Watching Pasquale Grasso I had to ask my wife where she put that darn finger stretcher again! An amazing talent glad I got to hear him before checking out! Thank you Frank for making these shows available!!

I know, right? It sure seems to me that so many of the greats have fingers (even "pinky" fingers) that are as long as my entire hand from the my wrist to the end of my middle finger. Pasquale can make six or seven-fret stretches without any effort! @ 44:06

@@brandex2011 Perhaps it's part of it but the best aspect of PG's playing is his feel, not how far he can reach. Just has insanely discreet sensibilities.

@@thommccarthy3945 Reach is definitely part of Pasquale's unequalled capability, and I'll admit to envy.. But regarding his approach, I wrote this to someone who basically criticized his lack of "space" and basically accused him of being a showoff. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oNqJgbqnsrmpiKM.html&lc=UgxO9FTr_vlNfzDoAXZ4AaABAg.9iStyNrhDzX9kMwsqhvTRG I responded with this: _"@Steven Bernie Bernstein Sorry that you are unable to appreciate what Pasquale is doing. The thing is, that as you learn and incorporate knowledge and technique into your playing, and reach the point where you can play what you want to hear, it's practically impossible not to play what your brain tells you to play. That is his personal "feeling and life experience." This may not be to your taste, but that's subjective. I agree that Pasquale is somewhat overwhelming, but I've found that I, too, probably overplay tunes (in a different way than Pasquale) - just because I can and just because I play what I want to hear. Note that his audience seems to appreciate his take on tunes. On the other hand, if it's just feeling and emotional connection you prefer, Barney Kessel is the master and is also a technical wizard."_

All three are amazing! Vignola is very sophisticated under every aspect plus his small sound modulations that put so much life in his playing, Grasso very very skilled so I am excited how he will develop. He is so young and already so good.

You guys are doing a great thing. Audio quality is so good. Even better than Smalls (Smalls audio quality is pretty bad to be honest). Keep it up guys. I really appreciate this content.

The Pasquale Grasso guitar , named Trenier is made in France, in Uzes (south of France) and best than many old american instruments, but expensive. And, of course, pluged in a Fender amp, the best.
