awesome:  I agree he's one heck of a guitar player.  Why, though, did you mention Segovia in your notes?

This guy is older than me.  Whew!  I was beginning to wonder if I was the oldest person on earth!  Well, you already know I think he's the rockingest, sexiest old man on earth.  This song was on his first album (this was before CDs kiddies).  His first album was acoustic, and had no drums on it.  This song has gone on to be his biggest hit ever.

awesome:  Yes, I knew Mason Williams played nylon strings, but on the Howe piece, those really didn't have that sound that gut strings have.  After listening a second time, I can catch phrases where they sound nylon, but during most of the performance, they sound like steel.  The difference must be in the guitar.  Thanks for that information.  I'll be more on the lookout for that.  I thought my ear would hear the difference.  Evidently, not always.
