ive heard loads about this guy over one song but i never seemed to find his stuff. the other day, i found his cover of teardrop on youtube, and could not believe the power that came over me, it was better than church!

then, then i saw his cover of love will tear us apart, and that just, that took the load. i have learned both songs on guitar now, and plan on getting as much as i can from him.
he's like, my kind of Fionn Regan.

(also, i recognized him from the Zero 7 album The Garden but never...engaged it)

pick anything up from him! its a must

while i still think that the knife's live version of 'heartbeats' is one of the best songs i have ever heard, i really enjoy mr. gonzalez's take as well :) saw him perform it just a few blocks from where i work too!

you should also try and get hold of his cover of kylie's 'hand on your heart'...

And you really only need to do this during The Pledge of Allegaince.

Hell, windmill or cabbage patch through The Star Spangled Banner for all I care.

In my opinion his entire first album is top notch. Definitely worth checking out.

the wife and i saw him live in london a few months ago and i was very impressed; especially after being underwhelmed by his 2nd lp compared to the genius of his first
