If we liked the unusual playing styles of the four musical German ladies, how about this Australian chap? He busks in Leicester Square, and also on the rather more C21st youtube thing.
Can't quite decide whether this is really good or just a bit unusual. Perhaps our guitar correspondent Kev will tell us.

A certain similarity with the way that David Lindley sometimes plays.....
Like Jeff Healey without the talent. At least he had the excuse of being blind. This fellow is just abusing the instrument. In engineering circles we call this sort of thing 'spanner abuse'.
I've been playing classical guitar for 40 years so I feel strongly about this sort of thing.

A fellow Australian using the same guitar (a Maton) the right way up !
I'll let you decide which is best.

And this is me. I don't play percussive. My Martin is waaay too precious to me to do that on.
(Recorded on my home recorder - good speakers or headphones recommended.)

Chris Woods.
A leader in the percussive genre.
Thanks Kev - was relying on you!
Over doing it as usual.
Chris Woods really is worth a look.
