Pat,

When I was about 11 years old my friend's father, a jazz musician in Chicago, gave me a copy of The Visit and said "If you want to learn how to play listen to this guy".

I listen to your playing every day and it has been a constant influence and inspiration to me.

Dear Pat,

Thanks for what you are sharing with us. I love to listen to you speaking about music. What you talk about hits me in the soul. It's life. There is no Art without a life lived within it and you hipped me to this. It's how you walk, talk, breath, eat, love and all the other feelings of the moment.

Your words truly changed my trajectory more than your music, which I love like a son loves his father. Please accept all the love and peace I have to offer. Always at your service should you need.

You know I used to be the Maestro (Dennis) soup boy!

I am struggling with love doing the Footprints etude from the DC Music courses. Almost like having a personal lesson and recalls the wonderful days back in DC. All the best, Maestro and Madam.

Enjoying your STRINGS! album on vinyl very much and good to hear my friend Ben Tucker in accompaniment. I knew him from the time I was 18 until handful of years back when he was tragically killed here in Savannah. I discovered your work in my search to own everything he was part of on vinyl. Thank you for your talents and adding so much color to the world canvas and that of people's imaginations!

I never knew a hacker could improve a credit score until i met one on a discussion forum when i googled how to improve my credit score, i read a lady’s comment on how capable the hacker is of solving any problems that has to do with hacking. So i sent him a mail and asked if he had the ability to raise credit scores(all 3 companies) and also eliminate eviction off court records. Then he replied yes and asked me to provide him some info of mine he’ll need to run the hack. when i did just that, he completed the hack within 72 hours at a price that’s worth it. I give thanks to the ethical hacker for coming to my aid when i needed him the most. Reach the hacker at ciphercreditware@gmail.com. cell number (+1 747-201-4041) and you’ll be amazed by his skills.

Good morning Mr. Pat, I want to express my greatest respect and admiration, your music has given me a style to follow, a style that is not simple requires study with great concentration.

Your musical and life history is the most amazing in the field of jazz guitar, which is why you are a living legend.

I wish you good health and I look forward to seeing more educational videos of you on the internet.

Dear Mr. Martino,
I attended a guitar workshop you gave in PA almost 15 years ago. I saw you perform the night before the workshop and I will never forget that as I glanced across the bar, there you were. I thought, holy crikey that's him! You saw me and waved and said hello. Though I am a bass player you put me at ease that there was so much common ground. I went to that festival alone and having just started a family felt so incredibly grateful that you just noticed me and said hello.

What I learned from your workshop was more than scales, more than notes, more than sound. It was how to find yourself in any situation and relate it to music and more than that -- how to be present, kind and an authentic human being.

Thank you so, so, so much. I wish you a speedy recovery. Peace and love!!!
Rick
