No one is ever too old to appreciate good music, and 81-year-old Bob Wood proved that when this YouTube video of him playing "Besame Mucho" went viral back in October of 2014. In an article put out by Guitar Player, Wood, a native of Nashville, Tenn., reveals that the impromptu concert was inspired by a desire to check out a couple of amplifiers he had taken in to be repaired and was picking up. Shane Radtke of British Audio Service, the shop where the amplifiers were being repaired, heard Wood playing from the back of the shop and decided to video the performance. Radtke is quoted as saying, “I was in the back at my bench, and I heard somebody playing something pretty original. And I was like, wow, that’s really cool. So I said, ‘Guys, let’s shoot a video of this.’ ”
