he seems to miss a few melody notes though :confused:
Perhaps it's by choice or just impossibility given only 4 strings.
I love arrangements, though. Purists would argue that you only take away from the original music, for instance by arranging an orchestral piece for piano or guitar, but actually, with the right performer, it can make the music much more intimate and sometimes, yes, more beautiful.
And you can appreciate the technical skill, and everyone loves a virtuoso.

The beauty of the Beatles is that you could play most of their songs on a fucking mouth harp and the melodies are so infectious that that core of the song is still intact. This is true even for most of the weird stuff from Sgt. Pepper on - I've probably pulled off twenty or thirty of those with a two piece acoustic guitar and hand drum combo. I think the key tip-off to a well written pop song is that it can translate across to any instrument in *almost* any genre and still work. George Harrison's stuff definitly does that (with the possible exception of 'Taxman').

pretty much blew my mind when he went berserk at about three minutes in.

I don't know any of the songs in that arrangement, but wow. Around the 3 minute mark he just lets loose and I was sure it was going to snap in two.
