To copy and play music from other composers is good for progress on your instrument. Meanwhile I continue to study the guitar, and performing.

When Paul McCartney came to play in Porto Alegre, some members of his band came to the bar where we were playing, 3 blocks away from the hotel he was staying. We wish Paul had come, because we were playing a lot of Beatles songs.

Playing in the Cavern Club bar in Buenos Aires, in a Beatle festival. Tony Sheridan(remember "My bonnie" lies over the ocean...), Bill Heckell(owner of the Cavern Club in Liverpool) and Julia Baird(John Lennon's sister) were there and we met them.
For a Beatle week festival in POA we used the Sgt.Peppers suits, the kids liked it.

With this group I used to play classics from brazilian music in an acoustic nylon string guitar, from your left to right it's: Me(nylon string guitar), Jorge Gerhardt(bass), percussionist giba-Giba, singer Graça Magliani, and Paulinho Oliveira on flute.

This turned to be a family album. SOME THINGS ARE FOREVER!
