Check out Lenny Breau. Pretty sure Tommy studied, learned from him. I know he s a fan of Lenny s.

guitar god .and very kind pure man

I just picked up the sheet music for his version. What a beautiful arrangement. It has a timeless quality to it and I feel fortunate to have the chance to learn and share it.

Thanks so much Tommy.

Someone please learn this and teach us piece by piece

🐐

Tommy you are beyond… superhuman 😮

❤❤❤❤

Alan gogoll es mejor

Bravissimi

Tommy your one of if not the GOAT but as a teacher nuh forget it!

Extraordinaire.....wow..... jolie..... yeah.......yeah..........

I bet Shubb appreciates Tommy's shout-out. One nice thing about the Shubb capo is a tension adjuster that can be set looser so it doesn't pull the strings so sharp. I use Shubb partial capos because they have the lowest profile with the least parts protruding so I can jump down and play the non-capo’d strings between the capo and the nut then jump back above with the least interference. Attach a partial capo at the 2nd or 4th fret and it will change your world. Anyone using capos regularly will notice the rubber sleeve eventually starts slipping. Remove the rubber sleeve then use a hacksaw to cut shallow slots across the bar every 1/8" above and below where it presses the strings then push the rubber piece back on. I did that about six months ago and haven't had that problem since.

This guy challenges you in every direction! Fantastic player, probably the best.

Alright

Wow...he articulated everything I've ever felt about being onstage. I thought there was something wrong with me for feeling like that. Seems I'm not alone in feeling that way when performing. ❤

God of guitar

I saw a kid on KZbin do that years ago very smoothly

I've read the comments and I've come to the conclusion that my Martin 12 and my Ovation 6. Ate soon the be firewood. LOL

I never use the word: Best as it pertains to musicians - but Tommy Emmanuel is among the Greatest Guitar Players on the planet. ( nice, humble guy too ). Love him.

Over-rated guitarists. Not very good improvisionists. Tommy is good on his thing but let him imprvise and solo he is gone, this other peppino is just so bad. There are a tonne of new talented players out there that just blows these old fellas away, like Mike Dawes, Calum Graham, Don Ross, Andy Mckee. Ok I have respect for the Australian.

Harmonic gratitude

Fantastic.that gospel turn around is magic

Whenever someone asks me what a capo is, I always tell hem it's something you clamp on so you can sing higher.

What's the first song he was plays?

Important tip: always take off your thumb pick before taking a swig from your can of fosters!

When you change a tuning *completely* like that, between two songs - it's gonna take a while for the strings to "set" properly. You will inevitable have to do a few corrections later on. Quite possible even *while playing* the next song! Every guitarist who has ever worked with multiple tunings on the same guitar in a concert situation FEARS those moments. I *love* how these necessary adjustments didn't become a nuisance *at all* for Tommy and Peppino. They didn't even break for a second! They just took it in stride with absolute professionalism. In fact, "the tuning thing" actually ended up *adding* a spontaneous extra touch of *fun* and some rare almost breathlessly *sensitive* moments to the show. It was even *better* for it! These guys really are TRUE musicians and TRUE artists. Everything becomes art in their hands. _Even the correction of a slightly out of tune string..._ Both guitar players reading and following the other one's mind completely. Almost becoming one. In harmony. So beautiful. I believe they call it *MUSIC* ...

The guitar percussion at 4:55 was timed perfectly and fit like a glove as did the counter melody at 5:44 that walks down

this is why I am not a professional guitar player

❤️

Tommy you need the Glider capo

So funny how one says that the Shub is the baddest capo and another says Shub is probably the best, just figure it out for yourself and play the capo of your liking.

God Bless Tommy Emmanuel ...even more and continually...

This guy is so many worlds and levels above the rest of us it's unreal

Tommy is just awesome. Really no true words to discribe him. He is a freak of nature. Thanks Tommy, best wishes the Wolf

Paige capos…the best

Tommy is like the Tom Hanks of guitar. His saying would be "life is like fingerstyle guitar, you have to start with the thumb"

I’ve always loved the walk down turn around on the A 👌

Just remember you always pluck the harmonic 12 frets up from where your left hand is fingering...that's the key.

What model is that gold capo? I have a Shubb, and it's great, but I also want a quick release one.

He is extra terrestrial. 🤪🤪🤪🤪😎😎😎👍👍

He needs a new pair of pants, they have holes in them, how old is he?

I think he’s in Russia

Kyser capoes are the best...not too much tension unlike Dunlop's

Visto dal vivo a Torino 2 anni fa o 3...un mostro....

What a video, what a gem! Thank you Nick. Where and when was it? Anyway, do you know what happened, when he stopped playing? 😁

Tommy: here are the first two chords, and you get the idea of the rest.

People who think anchoring RH pinky is a bad habit, should watch this tutorial..

Nick, a big thank you for posting these TE videos! Had a chance to see Tommy live this year but Covid said otherwise.
