One of the most impressive live shows I ever saw. Just MH and his acoustic g. It wasn't the speed of his fingering, it was the complexity and his sort-of acrobatics on the instrument. Getting all kinds of sounds and feelings. Really unique, different, original, cool, beautiful.

Michael, I wish you were still with us - I would've come to see you play kick-ass guitar live. I'm sad to see that people forget about you when you have influenced so many great current guitarists. [2]

Ritual Dance <3, I wish I could have seen him performed live. He had so much passion for his craft.

It seems so stupid sometimes, the people we lose to what seem like absurd things, like auto accidents. James Dean, Steve Prefontaine, Michael Hedges, among others. It makes you wonder how the world works. Drive Safely, people.

I think he took the acoustic guitar (as we know it now anyway) as far as it can ever go and still be musical and interesting to listen to. Taproot is a masterpiece. I feel so fortunate to have seen him in concert. When he played Ritual Dance I knew (we all knew) we were witnessing something really special! I have to believe he is somewhere with Jimi and maybe Segovia and they are talking shop!

Einer der besten Gitarristen aller Zeiten - überirdisch! Ich hatte das große Glück ihn live in Montreux zu erleben. Ein Musikerlebnis, das ich nie vergessen werde. Ich vermisse ihn sehr.

Hey Csavoth61-> whole heartedly agree,-MH is a true legend in acoustic artistry! Sad we had to lose yet another great person in music-and won't have any new material to look forward to,.. 'until we meet again'-(he obviously served his karmic mission well ;) There is another really good artist that imparts a sense of Michael's style, and while he's not MH, he does come close= *Billy McLaughlin...

By happenstance, I was in the Mendocino area months after Michael's crash. I had been a devoted disciple, even going so far as to learn "Ritual Dance" with a friend, which we played at a law school coffee house on acoustic guitars as a duet. Michael was surely one of the rarest jewels in the musical firmament and in speaking to those that lived in his town and knew him, I was shattered by the sorrow. No one has come close - no one.

Ah, this man made amazing music. And as a Zappa fanatic, Sofa #1 is ofc one of my favorites. Have any of ya heard "Come Together" live by Hedges? Heh well, if you haven't, definitely check it out. Honestly it's the best version of that song EVER.
