Excellent. Extremely good, one of the best.

This is not uncommon in England but is most often heard in people who are Cockney, or close to it.
It's never used for some things, but often for others. A cake is never bramah, but the baker who baked it could be. A novel would not be, but its author could be.
"Noel Coward was a charmer.
As a writer he was bramah."

Extremely good; the creme de la creme; a real beauty, but not always appropriate for certain things - for example, food can not be described as "bramah". Don't ask me why. This definition seems to be known from SE london area, and from the 50-60's.
"he caught him right in the face with it, man. It was a wicked shot - must have been 50 yards at least; bramah."

The word "sick" in refrence to something "good" is extremly over used, so i decieded to completly take it out of my vocab. In order to fill the void of the word "sick" or another immature word from above I created the word "beamah."
That party last night was beamah. We all got girls and cocaine.

Doyle Bramhall II

A mainly blues guitarist from Texas that had an unsuccessful solo career but gained his popularity among guitarists through touring with Roger Waters and Eric Clapton.

His main guitars are a Fender Stratocaster, a Gibson Les Paul Junior, and a Gibson Flying V.
He plays left-handed while setting the strings as it were on a right-handed guitar. He is extremely versitile, as he is capable of playing slide guitar.

His performance at the Budokan in 2/25/09 on the Eric Clapton tour was especially badass.
Doyle Bramhall II can play a right-handed guitar left-handed.

I wish I was Doyle Bramhall II.

Doyle Bramhall II currently tours besides Eric Clapton and has been doing it for a couple of years.

Doyle Bramhall II is equally amazing as Derek Trucks.
