This is freakin' amazing ... thanks for posting, Russell!

Of course I've got to commend the folk at Larrivee Guitars (Vancouver) for the custom 3/4 guitar they made him, as shown on their splash page:

You're right about his voice ... his version is at least as good as Bowie's!

Very cool.  Thanks for sharing!

Art and beauty are in the eyes of the beholder.
What constitutes excellent music is in the ears of the listener.

Awesome!

Live in the "now" - a contentment of the moment - the past is gone - the future doesn't exist - all we ever really have is now and it's always "now".

Cool indeed

I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.
