This good soloing. An urban underground cry. I can see you playing your guitar in an empty skyway not far from an Italian restaurant in the heart of the big city. Who meeds the jukebox when you have Tadashi?

The food in restaurants ranges from magnificent to terrible. It depends where you go, what you order, and how often they change the grease or cooking oil.

I can see a long list of favorite restaurants under my comments. Let me start: Mickey's Diner in St. Paul, MN

Is it so?
Is this an Italian restaurant?
I learnt for the first time.

No, it is a 100% American art deco dining car. Greasy hamburgers and French fries. Nice thick malts. Friendly cooks and waitresses. A very small place. It has been in two or three American movies.

Well, I do not see any other "favorite restaurants" listed below, so Mickey's Diner wins as "best American restaurant".

RE photo...I don't know if it's delicious, but it smells pretty good from here! Welcome back Tadashi-san. You haven't done much posting lately. I've missed your inspiring guitar work. Thanks so much for filling my cup to overflowing with this great riff-fest!

Be well!

Great to have you back Tadashi - I was wondering where you'd been lately. This is a real showcase for your guitar skills - fantastic playing and solid production.
Thanks,
Neil

Is it deep in the autumn of Australia?
The sea wave might be also high.
Your family's peace.

...that at some point... I'll get to take you on a tour of some New England eateries...

We may have to start with the Pig & Whistle in Brighton... Not that it's great, but it sure is authentic American diner food... You will instantly understand Rich Schletty's comment about the cooking oil...

We may have to alternate this with the bison meatloaf sandwich at O'Natural's...

Or perhaps a sandwich at Acton Jazz Cafe...

I love the very present overdriven tone of the guitar and amp here... And the bluesy phrasing...

I always enjoy hearing your play, Tadashi...

Indeed,
It might be a standard meal.
I am very interesting.
Let's eat together by all means.

Love your guitar playing, sir.
I was distracted by the hiss/line noise and was wishing that a filter had been applied so that the transition from guitar to finger snap were more seemless.

Always thank you.
I wish to express my gratitude for your listening.

Very skilled and soulful playing, as always. It stops half-way through, so it seems as though it is over, but then it starts again, very similar to the beginning... is this intentional?

Always nice to hear your music!

...just guitar and fingersnapping.

"Greasy spoon" restraurant: bacon and eggs/pancakes/hamburgers/sodas...

Definitely not health food...or sushi (my favorite)...

Hot playing, Todashi...
