Anyone ever encountered a player called Bob Littell?
Here's a clip of him and fingerstyle guitar god Tommy Emmanuel playing a M. Travis tune. Pretty tasty stuff!

I just discovered Bob Little thru a friend who is a Tommy Emmanuel fan.
Bob plays on a few of the songs on the album unfortunatley not in Nine Pound Hammer, seems more Folksy/Christian than blues but amazing guitar and harp playing.
I can't remember the name of the album of hand but I imagine ITunes would have it.

-Great stuff. Love Tommy Emmanuel and Bob Littell is really good. Have a look at this vid of Juzzy Smith & John Butler http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrZUHFNcx8o&feature=related I think both are good Aussie players. Its a good jam.

Cool - it's always nice to see some nice acoustic duo's. That guy Butler's a good guitarist!
Hey Aussiesucker, not a harp question, but you might be able to help me out here - whaddya call the Aussie guitars that Tommy Emmanuel swears by? Apparently they're great quality and like, half the price of most of the old established brands??

shaneboylan -Not being a guitar player I'm not a good one to ask however Tommy endorses an Australian made series of guitars called Maton. I got this info from Tommy's website.

Shane, Maton guitars are a great guitar. When you see performers in Aus a lot of them use Matons. I tested a few and nearly bought one, but went for a takamine.
