"John produces the best 'raw' rendition around of Classical Gas, and then just walks off like it was a stroll in the park - sheer class"

"Throughout the evening, numerous guests (some that I'd never met) confessed to being bedroom guitarists and loved it. Cavatina in particular was mentioned on more than a few occasions."
