Some time ago in this post here I had a video with Stanley Jordan playing Stairway to heaven in his unmistakable style.

Today I decided to post another video of Stanley Jordan playing Autumn leaves.

I really like that song and I am impressed with his style a lot, from the first second I have seen him playing, however I can not stop asking myself if he really plays guitar there. I guess he had a secret passion for playing the piano…

By the way, I don’t like the suit. Is it a jazz thing or what?

    The suit is an 80s thing. :)

    I got into Stanley Jordan after a friend played his version of Stairway to Heaven. This is a great version of Autumn Leaves. I must say I never get tired of hearing different takes of this tune. In contrast, check out Joe Pass’s version…from his Unforgettable album.

    Thanks for the video!

    Yes, I have also loved that version of Stairway to heaven, it’s something else, as anything he plays, to be honest. The suit, well…I just don’t like it ;-)

    Thanks for this video! I had to watch it a few times before I got it, and even then I didn’t :-)
    (Don’t like the suite either)

    How does he keep what each hand is doing straight?

    It’s hard enough playing one guitar.

    If the suit is what it takes to play like that…….then I will have to pass! I’ll just have to live with the way I play.
