How nice is John Jorgenson? I met John a few years back through the Gypsy Jazz circuit, and while I'm just a local enthusiast, he took the time to talk with me and share his ideas. Now a bunch of years go by and I played a gig where there were about 1,500 people. I was so stoked by it I wrote about the gig on my Face Book page. Guess what? John Jorgenson took the time to congratulate me on the gig! This coming from a man who that very same night was playing a massive stadium in Europe with Elton John. And he took the time to reach out to me! That's the kind of man John Jorgenson is -- a rare, thoughtful, wonderful musician and human being.

Every once in a while God puts all the good things in one person. John is that guy. A supreme talent and human being.

Paisley is always nice and he is ALWAYS very humble. It’s a rare trait these days.

Absolutely love this. I met John around the same time. Backstage in Lynden WA at a Desert Rose Band concert, and he had a Matchless at the time. The hero said hi Forrest as he finished up soundcheck. (Dad had already talked to him) I was floored. So humble and open about his gear. Love him!

I met JJ at a guitar clinic several years ago. What everyone else says about what a great guy he is is true. I was a rank amateur but he still took time to talk to me about technique and his days with Desert Rose Band. Wow, what a group that was. They were amazing!

Lord have mercy! I just never knew Brad was listening to the same stuff I was back then. The Desert Rose Band ruled the radio waves for a minute in the 80’s, as did Rodney Crowell, who introduced some ripping country guitarists to the world, and still is. These dudes are responsible for countless goosebumps worldwide.

I saw Elton John perform in Camden, NJ. We were on the lawn, so our visual was via the screens. I said that sax player looks JUST like John Jorgenson, but that can't be him, he's a guitar player. Guess what. Do you realize how great a musician you have to be if Elton John wants you for his sax player and you're thought of mainly as a guitar player?
