The Most Ridiculous 9 Year Old Guitar Player

This is one of my favorite 12 bar blues performances I've heard in a long time, child OR adult.

Argentinian child prodigy Lucciano Pizzichini performed this piece when he was nine years old. NINE.

My first thought, "Did Joe Pass reincarnate with better hair?" Turns out, it's not only in the style of jazz virtuoso Joe Pass, it's a Joe Pass COVER called Pasta Blues.

At age 7, Pizzichini became the youngest child to be sponsored by Gibson guitars. His wikipedia page says he began playing at 2 years old with a one-string guitar customized by his father.
