PolkaDots and MoonBeams
Here is Richard's performance that matches the title! I can edit my posts but I don't see a way to delete my duplicate of "Here There and Everywhere". I'll check back to see if any of you can tell me how?

Thanks for posting these clips Rande. I'm really enjoying them. Richard Smith is such a great guitar artist. He is getting better and better like Chet did.

Re: PolkaDots and MoonBeams
Yes, Rich, but he's also playing in a way that Chet didn't. You could always tell when Chet stepped outside of what was traditional for him. He was flawless and perfect but I've very tuned into complex jazz harmony and Chet didn't go as deeply as Richard does. Richard told me recently that he's also exploring "Gypsy Jazz", which I have no interest in. He wants to expand his horizons. For me, watching him isn't about trying to figure out the notes he's playing but almost solely on his technique! That's about all I'm interested in any more. I've been figuring out the "correct notes" for years!
