monsters of azeri guitar : Elman Namazoglu

Alex

i've recently come across this great player from Azerbaijan (located in the Caucasus region,at the crossroads of Western Asia and Eastern Europe). i have to admit i was mesmerized by this kind of approach in all it's microtonal glory. so , i thought this would be an ideal place to share this and hopefuly get some reaction from other fellow "occidental" guitarists!

i was rather intrigued by this "exotic" guitar on the youtube video i posted, so i did a little research, here's what came up http://cheesyguitars.com/guitars_jolana.html . it's actually a czech guitar appropriately named Jolana. in case someone's interested.
