Dave!

You nailed it so well there!  That's exactly what I love about Marty
and more or less what tell some of my less aware pals or unitiated
types when they watch a video or hear something I play for em by him 
that makes em go "WHOA!"  I think whoever touched on the guy's brazen
self assuredness and "swagger" nailed it also.  The guy just sails
right on thru! Although I'm sure his playing didn't come all that easy,
he's done a scale or so in his time! ;-)

I love him!
