A Few Great Moments at Norman's Rare Guitars

[@RudeboyJackson]

I've been playing guitar for ten years. After watching this video, I really want to learn how to play guitar.

[@LPJMagicmusic]

Dude I know exactly how you feel lol

[@geo941]

This is the perfect comment to explain how I feel right now lmao

[@rvmusictv0122]

25 years of playing guitar here but still felt I need a lot to learn more...

[@thebaronofbelco2615]

@Rudeboy Jackson, shit this made me choke on my beer, mate I laughed hard, that’s exactly what I was thinking while I watched it... mate as long as we are having fun. The greatest joy of my life has been being able to play music with all 4 of my kids, and they are a shit ton better than me, and I love every single minute of it... cheers from Australia 🇦🇺

[@nickgeorgakopoulos5283]

Hahahaha u made my day

[@JohnDoe-sz3lz]

13:24 My jaw literally dropped when he immitated the snare drum, that's the sickest technique I've ever fucking seen!!!

[@sebasec]

the same thing, Brother. Dude is Amazing.

[@MrEncosto]

+John Doe my guitar teacher taught me that 13 years ago :')

[@kamealex]

+John Doe First time I see something like that, and I've seen a lot of weird techniques.

[@matrags]

Gran Jota, Tarrega.

[@glennkrzeminski7539]

Did you notice the muscles in his hand? The guy has such strong fingers his hand looks like it's got a cramp.

[@bakerXderek]

That kid is amazing in the beginning, true talent there.

[@MatthewDRocks]

Hahahaha what the hell are you doing here? I am sub, love your shit

[@Bnisthebest]

Chyeah!

[@hdjake8803]

RCK EMY he plays guitar!!!

[@brenthall3175]

+RCK EMY Same

[@grayghost3646]

what song is that kid playing at the beginning? anyone know?

[@gj9665]

Any time I see an older guy pick up an acoustic guitar in the stores I know I'm in for a treat

[@johnkratz2476]

Well then, in case you ever see me pick one up, I apologize in advance for being such a disappointment!

[@hugq14]

Matthew5to8 That's Denny Laine! Underrated and great with Macca!

[@gareth662000]

Hugues Quintard it's not Denny Laine, its Laurence Juber.... Both in Maccas band

[@hugq14]

My god, Gareth!!! You're right!! Thank you for the correction and the piece of info!

[@gareth662000]

Hugues Quintard No worries mate, he is a cracking player 👍🏻

[@Rugbyfan1]

“Bass is like eyebrows you don’t realise when it’s there but when there gone it’s a disaster”

[@rvmusictv0122]

Beautiful guitars... great players & artist... nice music and talents...the world is full of good things to enjoy.🎼🎸🎹🎻🎺🎷🥁

[@MM-vs2et]

The dude that turned the classical guitar to a snare drum takes the fucking whole cake. That is years of practice and mastery playing. How he effortlessly slide around in that guitar is just one of those moments in life that you would wish that you would've done that since a kid. And I'm only 18

[@timothyhays1817]

Thanks Norman for sharing and preserving such joyous moments. I enjoyed all of it.

[@Bikewithlove]

Laurence Juber blew me away. I've never seen anyone play guitar like that. It was like he was playing it with his mind. It wasn't about the technique - the technique served the music. Nice tune.

[@samdraper9248]

Bikewithlove

[@WhiskerWhippers]

look up his Plays The Beatles album...great stuff

[@6000cs]

Ain't he, though? Remarkable, original, and fun to watch.

[@donq321]

I looked him up after i finished playing diablo and was pleasantly suprised that was involved in making some of the collector editors soundtrack

[@Mixson31]

Ooo yes, his master.

[@5216philip]

I have watched this 4 times already !! the amount of talent is quite intimidating , but , just can't get enough of this !!!!

[@CaptainFantastik1]

Lots of great players/artists there, but that classical player blew me away.

[@mattbrigidi]

3:30 is fantastic -- dude has a beautiful voice and can play. Soulful 👌

[@greysonmyers449]

Matt Brigidi check out the Marcus king band

[@Seth-bp3og]

Ugly as hell tho e

[@torchedkiwi1374]

dead boba ok

[@drgamer77]

Marcus King is Awesome!!!

[@aub6120]

@@Seth-bp3og idk what you mean, he looks like the nicest guy on the planet. With playing that soulful he might as well be.

[@TheEnergyball]

It's a great and rare thing that your shop inspires people to feel so comfortable playing.

[@Dragonblaster1]

The guy on the Spanish guitar with the drumbeat golpe technique... brilliant!

[@Actingskint]

My word the young guy playing blues , if he wasn't meant to be sitting in a smoke filled club with a bottle of Jack next to him and a single low powered spot picking him up , then theres something wrong .What a raw untapped voice to go with the emotion

[@bensmith2021]

Look up Marcus King Band. He's amazing

[@kostaburgess4373]

He’s become fairly big now - Marcus King is amazing!!!

[@johnmurray3346]

These best of Norms videos are simply the greatest guitar videos ever made 🤙🏻

[@markviereck4547]

This is one on the best videos I've ever seen on KZbin. So many awesome players.

[@john_trimble78]

My wife and I have literally binged watched Norms streams because of all of the amazing musicians who frequent his store. Lemmo is outstanding. The dude is next level.

[@SeahawkCustomsPc-qk2zn]

Some very amazing guitar playing no doubt about it. I've been playing 20 plus year's these young kids blow me away great playing guy's...

[@Kdog123123]

I need to come by Norm's soon ...before I move out of this state. I remember you guys over on the corner of Tampa and Sherman Way.

[@davidweekday366]

I stumbled across this video today, and I want to say thank you for uploading it. my Dad was a musician. he passed away in 2012. now he is rocking in peace. I didn't learn to play, and I miss the sound of live instruments. this brought up good memories. gotta love the power of music... thanks again!

[@sykwookiee]

David weekday ...sorry you lost your dad brother...mines been gone since '74...I'm 52 and I still miss what could of been...I wish you peace in your life...ďà wòöķįęè

[@gustavrosentoft6723]

the guy at 3:30 gave me chills! His playing style is so smooth and soothing to the ear! Good job man!

[@Waynemann1]

Beautiful music for my broken soul. Really lifted me. Thank you for sharing. Love rules

[@stringbender311]

Talented musicians, wonderful music, beautiful guitars! Great way to start the day! Thanks for sharing!

[@julkitan3017]

That's a concentrated mix of talents there in just 15 min... lives being devoted to the music, and each of them with a different approach, beautiful and inspiring.

[@malesmandi]

13:23 whoaaa what kind of sorcery is this??

[@TheBroddha]

Adrian Mahendra Wooord! This guy turned the guitar into a drum.

[@mysterymac38]

I liked his playing the best.

[@Lank2thepast]

lmao

[@ianb9693]

twisted the strings over each other.

[@ktpinnacle]

Fantastic.

[@andrerichard628]

This is a really inspiring video. Love all the styles, and I just never tire of people's creativity.

[@photopicker]

Great video. Always a joy to experience real talent. Music is for everyone. Everyone loves something special.

[@johnnypk1963]

The 2 classical players absolutely killed it. That snare sound that Hamed was playing, damn that was cool.

[@mrtambourineman6107]

Lemmo ?? I don't know if I'd personally describe him as 'classic' but yeah! He's damn good 👍

[@ALEEN517]

Holy craps. Some of those guys are downright brilliant guitar players.

[@FULLonARMOR]

So inspiring and inspiring!

[@MrJoselindeubrique]

It's a very cool place to take a walk through the authentic essence of the guitar business , where not only the money is the main . Nice and professional Job Mr. Norman. The music community should be absolutely proud about your feeling of pure love for the spirit of the old times. You keep this feeling from the sweet past in this strange present time. Thank you from another corner of the world. J.L. Barcelona / Spain.

[@JohnSmith-jb8rb]

I hope there's a sign in there that says "no stairway"

[@nikodemus53]

John Smith Hahahah that reminds me of a sh guitar shop I used to go to, where there was a sign saying you get 20 lashes for Stairway, 30 for Smoke on the Water etc.

[@nonyabusiness665]

I hope there's a sign that says "Live and let die" so people can stop complaining about what others play.

[@JohnSmith-jb8rb]

Ever seen Wayne's World?

[@deanevangelista6359]

Unless Jimmy Page is playing it.

[@bobbyhihi123123]

is the solo okay?

[@cozmickid80]

Awesome. These players inspire me and make me want to never pick up a guitar again out of sheer respect.

[@telecaster24]

I am going to laugh forever after your reply cozmickid ( still cracking up ). I feel the same way you do...but still going for it..Xlnt comments and Great VIDEO of talent..Hats off to all here...

[@cozmickid80]

Oh, I'm still going to keep at it. It's an addiction with me, but I have a long way to go. Cheers!

[@telecaster24]

Me too addicted Cheers back at you my man, Rock em hard hard my bruttha..cozmickid

[@danelogan1532]

then maybe you arent a guitar player

[@jasonrayharrell]

I'll never have the money to buy the guitars I see in this channel, but I love watching and hearing the demos like this.

[@Cyclist0623]

Awecome, all around. I don't know what's more spectacular, this line up of incredible players, or that seemingly infinite array of fastastic instruments all around them. Wow!

[@robinlallement531]

Laurence Juber...... amazing!!

[@razerheartbeat12]

I only hope to be half as good as all of these amazing players.

[@turtleleach751]

Melissa Orosco same

[@DimitriMoreira]

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe we can do it! Best of luck for you.

[@NonsensicalSpudz]

practice

[@MrDutchino]

Practice, devotion, and perseverance makes your wish come true

[@danelogan1532]

I am better than these players because I dont show off all over the neck

[@JeremiahFernandez]

this video is very inspiring and humbling at the same time

[@darkcloud2561]

One of the best compilations of what ppl will say r unknown musicians. But a true music lover will know most of these ppl

[@AtilioEscobar]

Laurence Juber, by far was the most amazing. That whole song was phenomenal, and that strange bend he was doing baffled me to say the least. AND. Not even looking at the guitar! Holy crap!=]

[@danielboulton922]

That first guy was awesome loved that tune

[@jasonavera6846]

Superb playing especially the gentleman playing classical. He made that guitar dance and sing like no tomorrow. The whole video sucks you into an awesome trance.

[@jeffsheridan9910]

There is so much talent out there. Incredible video.

[@Smarty1171]

I liked the way the youngest person played the best. Awesome talent. You don't have to play fast to be great.

[@CaptainScarlet1961]

It's a beautiful thing to witness, when some nobody off the street walks into a guitar shop & blows everyone away.....

[@dominickp2023]

I could listen to this all day.....thank you for posting!

[@ryansuchodolski3972]

I wanted to let you all know how much I love all the video's you post. I watch every week. What makes them and your store appeal to me as well is that your all such great people. Keep the video's coming.

[@jakobshuster1244]

such an awesome video, thank you so much.

[@StefanGBucher]

Good God, the guy at 5:00 ... does he practice by opening pickle jars with his pinkie and ring finger? The strength!

[@danelogan1532]

who cares

[@Tony-yc2fy]

Dude Laurence Juber has played the guitar alongside with Paul McCartney also plays the Tristram Theme of Diablo 3. Lol

[@OriginalPuro]

Dane Logan, hundreds if thousands of people care, you're just ignorant to who that person is.

[@robertdickinson4712]

Watching this Channel, Has given me proof that real music, played on real instruments, still exists and hasn't yet died, wich gives me some Hope

[@godface81]

That was awesome! Thanks Norms!

[@ianwheat2401]

I don’t care if this was posted 5 years ago, the guy in the first clip at 0:54 is such an amazing part.

[@help6468]

do you know what song he played???

[@pawanram2622]

i wonder if they sell acoustic guitars

[@hsojbean4559]

Pawan Ram no I actually don’t think they do

[@derekmontoya5120]

Lol

[@FatRogSlim]

Hahaha xD

[@heggy_69]

Not sure man, couldn't see any there

[@evimlck4579]

Lol. I've been checking them out Two days ago, I bought a Martin GPC PA4. What a great full-bodied sound and action. I'm still pinching myself or dreaming.

[@seppstarthebest]

thanks especially for lemmo, king and juber - great players i didn't know before!

[@ukstd1]

Love it! Great musicians all round and great guitars!

[@aokspage]

the dude from wings...holy shit!

[@Dan-qk4ns]

Juber was a studio musician for over 20 yrs, probably the best in this mix

[@metalbeastrage]

I hope he paid for that guitar after he fucking Destroyed it.

Marcus Kings appearance in Breaking Bad as Todd has done wonders for his music career. Such a good actor too 👏 ❤️

[@user-in9xo6zo9p]

hamed poursaee pure genius playing the drums on the classic guitar... thanks for putting this vid up...

[@youwish1135]

Hamed Poursaee.... Just wow! Never heard guitar played like that before.

[@thepoozer]

That first dude. Wow.....

[@southern7766]

Ik, I am trying to come up with an acoustic version of it. It's fairly tough lol

[@hectorvieyra1403]

wich is the song?

[@92Shreshth]

Ian Puzinas what's the name of the first song ?

[@tacopacopotato6619]

pretty sure its original by the guy

[@jhendricks02]

that’s michael lemmo!

[@sends2aaron]

Lemmo looked so different back then :)

[@lesliewhite3208]

This is an awesome video I could never p,any but I love guitars playing accustics country just all in general such talent and yes I love the piano to

[@spookybuk]

Wow. Interesting performances all around. Great video. Thanks!

[@ZenDriveSeven]

I'm sure it's been said before, but Norm's needs a reality show.

[@ebookpioneers]

NOBODY needs a reality show!

[@ZenDriveSeven]

You know what, Charles? I'm man enough to admit when I'm wrong. I actually agree with you. However, done right, and no phony side stories like 'Pawn Stars', it actually may be worth a watch.

[@MattyK-USA]

Hell, man - just set up some cameras like C-Span and I'd be glued to the tube.

[@ktpinnacle]

If done right, it would be a great intro to the instrument and wonderful talent. It worked well for Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives (regardless of what you think of the host, it opened the doors to some good places to eat).

[@hunterxbox11]

ZenDriveSeven I agree

[@ffjsb]

13:30, IMPRESSIVE how that guy made the guitar sound like it was playing a marching tune, I've never seen that technique before.

[@Jeepjones85]

Yea iv never really heard anything like that. Very cool

[@modelcitizen1977]

Probably the most raw fucking blues jam I've ever heard. I have three favorite new guitar players from that clip alone, even if Tyler Bryant is a Jack White clone, he's still a better guitar player. Nichols effortlessly mimicing a slide. Jesus.

Laurence Juber is one of the pioneers of the acoustic fingerstyle guitar style. It’s crazy that you might think he’s just the guitarist from the group wings 😉!

[@mrtambourineman6107]

No actually because I respect true talent, not just all the bells and whistles of the likes of Bonamasa

[@mrtambourineman6107]

[@cuda426hemi]

+Pince Buster It's a nice place, very laid back. I hit it about 3 times a year. Norm has nice stuff; nobody wants tirekickers jacking off on good old stuff - go to G.C. and do that. Still, I've had ZERO negativity there in my years. You never know who will run into there either..
