Blind guitarist

[Bert]

Has anyone ever heard of a blind man who taught himself to play guitar. When he heard groups playing on the radio, he did not realise that there were three people playing lead, rhythm and bass, so he taught himself to play lead, rhythm and bass at the same time on one guitar (goodness knows how). I think he may be (or may have been) Brazilian. I heard about him on the radio years ago, but I am beginning to wonder if I imagined it.

Jose Feliciano?

Someone with a girls name anyway.


(Young Ones joke. Couldn't resist when I saw Jose Feliciano).

I didn't know how to do that little line above the "e" (acute accent?) on here. :(

Wait a minute, I think I just figured it out:- Josē Feliciano :)

[Bert]

No, not José Feliciano.
Hold the Alt key down and key 1,3,5 on the numeric pad - not the numbers on the top line of the keyboard. There are many more - google Alt key codes.

Thanks Bert, you learn something new everyday. :) I thought that line above my "e" didn't look quite right. I got it from: All Programs>Accessories>System Tools>Character Map.
