Jesse cook is the best guitarist ever!
My story has started when I was in my house listening with one of my sister’s friend to a song called(FRAGILE),which was originally for sting. I loved this song but when I listened to the rythem of spanish music that engaged with the song, I said to myself wooow really the spanish music add an amazing style for any kind of music!
I asked about the person who was playing the guitar and he was (Jesse cook) .
Since then, I have listened to his music and I dream everyday to meet him because I wanted to tell him : Jesse your music has it’s unique taste!
I have listened to his music since 1999,so I am in my way to reach the 12 years soon!
From my passion to Jesse’s music, I put his spanish music in my engagement and wedding ! Imagine !
Guess what ! my dream came true !
I met him in Canada . Of course its his country but I met him in London,where I live now !
the amazing thing! I met him face to face and I told him :”Jesse, finally after 11 years of waiting to see you , you are in front of me !”
He said:”wow, 11 years! where are you from?”
I said :”Saudi Arabia”
He was surprised but happy to hear that .
I really love his playing for rhumba flamenco .
He told me :”I am inspired by Paco De Lucia!”
so, I am now listening to the origin of Paco De lucia and of course Jesse:)
