		NUNO BETTENCOURT, ONE of rock music's most compelling and multi-faceted guitarists, is a very thoughtful and emotional musican who balances taste, tone, technique and imagination with artistic sensitivity.
		The latter is clearly demonstrated on beats 3 and 4, where Nuno emphasizes the lower notes on higher strings and higher notes on lower strings phenomenon of the cross-picking technique by playing the G note on the open 3rd string and freting, the G# and A notes no the 4th string.

		Bettencourt's first solo effort (he sings, plays almost all the instruments and wrote the songs) is all over the stylistic map.
		In addition, the diversity of the songs occasionally stretches Nuno's abilities as a writer and a singer beyond their limits.
		Whether Nuno can translate his talent into commercial and accessible pop songs is another question entirely, but his debut effort is clearly headed down the right road.

	Mourning Widows / Nuno Bettencourt - Band page with free MP3 music downloads on SoundClick
		Now being drummerless, when Nuno was asked to play at the Expo 1998 in Portugal, he realized he didn't have any choice but to take his Schizo band back, his brother Paul (guitar synth, bv's) Eddie W.(guitar, bvs) and Dave C.(drums) but just for this one time event.
		As soon as Jeff started to jam with them, Nuno knew he was the missing link to creating his power trio and so, in February 1999, Jeff was annonced as the new Mourning Widows drummer.
		Overall, that first MW tour went well but Nuno felt the band needed more time rehearsing so for the rest of 1999, time was spent on shaping up and developing band chemistry before doing more live shows.
