"Alone" by Jesse Cook. I've watched a youtube video by one of the members on here, but can't seem to locate any accurate tabs, with the exception of some by a Bob Sutherby. Does anyone have this worked out that they would not mind sharing? Thanks for any help.
RE: After reading/checking the "... (in reply to mrgearbox)
Just heard that one... is that flamenco?
It sounds like Estas Tonne with a bit more skill... didn't really like that, sorry for not being helpful.
...but I would really like if someone could tell me if that's flamenco, to me it sounds like little "flamenco licks" thrown into a pop melody with lots of arpeggios.

That's a good description of Jesse Cook's music, yes. He's normally known for his poppy-rumbas, but this solo piece is basically Spanishy noodling using flamenco techniques. Admittedly I did skip through it but I hear no signature toque libre references either in terms of licks or or tonality. So yeah, off topic really.
His music has been discussed here a few times, Ramzi does a few of his numbers. Have to admit I gig with one of his numbers too, easy listening for restaurant gigs...
