The No.1 website for musicians
An armless guitarist busking Petty and more...

Every Friday, the MusicRadar team submits its own personal favourite music videos and clips on the net.
Some clips we really like, others are simply comedy classics or oddly intriguing. But all are worth watching.
This week, see Little Boots in her old band (yes, of course there's a mini-synth), an armless busker, and Polly Harvey singing accompanied by guitars played with various kitchen implements. It's all good...
Victoria Hesketh is heading for success as Little Boots, but her current shot at fame isn't her first. She was previously part of Leeds-based three-piece Dead Disco, singing and playing her now-trademark synths. Sadly, we couldn't find a clip of her on Pop Idol, which she auditioned for when she was 16. Ben Rogerson
Here's a man who can't be stopped making music. Here he's busking Tom Petty's Mary Jane's Last Dance. Pretty incredible. Michael Leonard
I've seen countless drummers attempt this song, but few play it as smooth and put their own spin on it quite like Claude from Switzerland. Watch how he goes from matched to traditional grip - great. He gets a little busy at times, but man, he owns those drums. Joe Bosso
