So who's Michael Hedges?

revolutionary acoustic player who died in the 90's. In the early 80's he came seemingly out of nowhere with a very unorthodox 2 hand style of playing acoustic. Technically it was extremely impressive, but more impressive to me was his ability to use it to serve the song. He never did play "fast" that i ever recall. usually slow to mid tempo stuff, but what was impressive was the independance of thought it seemed each hand would have. each hand would play a part complimentary to the other.
