Pat Martino: "It's a pleasure to even be reminded of Louis Stewart. I met Louis the first time I performed in Ireland. He's not only a formidable artist, but also one of the warmest people I've had the pleasure of meeting, with no exception. As a true jazz-guitarist he's played an important role in the instruments evolution, especially in Europe. And as far as his playing being under-appreciated, it's only due to his performance not being as available as some of us would like it to be here in the 'States." If by any chance Louis comes across this conversation let me add this: "Louis, I send you all my love, and really look forward to seeing you again, hopefully sometime soon!. Until then, ..... CHEERS!"
