Opening act Paul Ubana Jones earned his own standing ovation
with utterly distinctive guitar style.I can only describe it as part
Ritchie Havens, part Andres Segovia and part Ravi Shankar.
That’s right, he closed his set with a raging Indian raga that was
as dazzling in technique as it was inventive in composition.
