Hello, Good Evening! One of the benefits of the new Loronix design is the chance of showing bigger videos. However, several different browsers are available and people use several different screen resolutions and I cannot test on these several alternatives. That's why I'm asking you to report something wrong with this post. Please leave a comment if something does not work as it should. I will be here to adjust things as they are reported.Thank you. Let's check this great Luiz Bonfa video sent by the great Loronix friend HansVonz. Luiz Bonfa performs Menina Flor at Mike Douglas Show (1966).
Hope uEnjoy!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful! My favorite Bonfa tune and it really shows his command of the guitar and his ability to extract different sounds, all using his fingers. More, please!!!!

Luis Bonfa is an outstanding acoustic guitar player. Thank you for sharing this Bonfa video with us.
ReplyDeleteGreat performance, and I appreciate how Mike tries to pronouce his name properly.
ReplyDeleteSeems to work on Safari -- but is it supposed to be in widescreen format?
So how can we save these videos so we can enjoy them again and again?
Zeca,
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your Bonfa videos. He is the greatest imho. It would have been enchanting to have actually seen it on TV.
By the way, is that Al Hirt with Mike Gouglas? I have no idea who the lady is.
Thomas...Yes, that is Al Hirt with Mike.
ReplyDeleteBTW, Mike had a really good studio band. The bassist was Jimmy DeJulio. He played both upright and Fender and sounded great on both. He always played hip changes.
First of all, thank you to HansVonz for sharing this. Just wonderful playing... I love the way he phrases, uses dynamics, and gets the full spectrum of sounds out of the instrument. I've always liked this tune, but I like it even more now!
ReplyDeleteI believe the woman shown at the beginning is Edie Adams.
Good old Mike Douglas... that was a fun show.
That's correct, Jim r, the woman shown at the beginning is Edie Adams, actually, sided with the legendary trumpet player Al Hirt.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Zeca, for sharing this nice Bonfa video with us.
