Andrew york - Marley's ghost

[@bibsfortuna]

Simply amazing! Andrew IMHO is the best contemporary classical guitar composer and performer.

[@DavetheIV]

I just gotta agree, this man is both an amazing player and a truly talented composer. Bravo!!!

[@polini009]

this song is too much good,i can't stop to listen to it

[@Steverimer1234]

Really awesome dude, I met him at a college here locally last night as well! My friend got to play a song for him. Even though this song is a tribute to bob marley... it does remind me of pirates too!

[@ChrisW21341]

I definitely agree with you. Andrew York doesnt get enough recognition as he should. No disregard to andy, antoine, or don ross...they are brilliant guitarists and make amazing music but York is way more in depth and deserves the same amount possibly more recognition than todays acoustic guitar icons

[@thatswhatshesaidtome]

This guy, is very underrated, especially when everyone talks about andy mckee and antoine dufour, despite they can play their own style flawlessly. This stuff is way more in-depth to me atleast.

[@owenmcgee8496]

I still have this on VHS somewhere. The original studio recording is on the cd 'Into Dark'. The title is a play on a reggae beat (Bob Marley) and then the 'Scrooge ghost' idea/theme. It gives a whole new meaning to the idea of a hauntingly groovy tune.

[@baltisimo]

I just met him here in Arizona! Awesome person, amazing guitarist :)

[@zaccyo]

Masterpiece. Incredible.

[@PastoAzul]

@thatswhatshesaidtome Haha another add on to your point. Even if not all of the biggest guitar players in the world play Yorks pieces, they certainly still teach them to their students. This is important music!

[@DLANEmusic]

Aghh that bass line is just perfect! It annoys me how well the whole piece flows!

[@marlonbatistaoficial]

Amo essa música.

[@redrico35]

Wonderful. I would love to hear this played by a Reggae band or even an orchestral arrangement. It sounds like a perfect song for a movie soundtrack (possibly minus some of the adornments and flourishes).

[@gregrules87]

I can play this up to about the 16th bar...after that it's all over with. This guy is fuckin' amazing.

[@kg207]

Superb playing.

[@Artaxbozzim]

bravo! If you apply the sounds almost like me ... Jokes aside, is one of the favorites of my repertoire, along with Introduction & Sunburst. I really like your music so much, congratulations

[@slackkeybob]

Talk about hitting chords shapes extra fast!! Impressive.

[@galzi123]

wow the ending of this piece is just outstanding!!!

[@Mikepereich]

I heard this song on NPR and went home and Bought it.

[@BWPGuy]

The passage that starts at 2:09 is INCREDIBLE

[@tasosdiaforetico7377]

That's pure art

[@DiegoNavaja]

Ive just found this guy. Its amazing. How he isnt famous ?

[@MusicJupiter]

Diego Navaja You are wrong. He is one of the most faimous guitar player)

[@decapitado]

andrew you are the freaking mannnnn!!!!!

[@Metalpaved]

Outstanding!

[@Haetith]

@thatswhatshesaidtome In my opinion, he's not underrated, he comes from another generation (I didn't write "belong"). I may be wrong, but what brought Andy and Antoine to "our" attention was KZbin. I first discovered them thanks to it anyway, and I went deeper: and I found Andrew York. If I hadn't seen Andy's videos, I would have never discovered Andrew's marvelous pieces.

[@GinoTheSinner]

To have something coming out of your mind sounding like this is amazing, and very intresting. how does it feel to be andrew york composing? must be awesome

[@snarfergarfer]

fantastic!!!!

[@Clown321321]

Mind-blowing.

[@remihoffmann8470]

Very cool !! Incredibly close to the Monkey Island theme ! I agree Alvaro ^^ Is that just a coincidence ?

[@alpha.gamma.dingdong]

The difference is that York is ten times the composer that Dufour and McKee are (especially McKee). This song actually sounds like something meaningful, not just 3 minutes of impressive guitar.

[@lprath4463]

Actually, I think that the title has something to do with a character from a Christmas Carol. I don't know. According to my guitar instructor, Andy york can be a bit enigmatic when it comes to his titles. My instructor's guitar orchestra commissioned Ask The Sphinx and my instructor was unable to get the meaning of the title out of him. Haha

[@jasobres]

Nope, pretty sure it's _Bob_ Marley.

[@9999Foxy]

Beautiful!

[@hostick]

me encanta la forma de tocar de andrew, escuchen tambien la de sunburst!!!!!!!!!

[@bonasty1990]

yeah i got into fingerstyle when i payed in mariachi, and when i went i got my new regular steel string guitar i nearly killed my nails from using em like i would lol, BTW i was the only white guy in mariachi class in my highschool, and im still the only white guy that ever took it LOL and i loved it!

[@snkhuong]

true a lot of guitarists on youtube gets much more credit than some guitars that have more depth like Andrew York

[@WhiteShadowREP]

Andrew can I plz learn how to play this song

[@matthewpurpura]

That fretboard is HAPPENIN'!

[@willy1986tralara]

genial

[@T90ShottIVFg]

this is a really hard song to learn

[@becauseofk]

Fuuuuck, this is goooood

[@Julio_Zapata]

Excelent!!!

[@MannyMakesThings]

i feel EXACTLY the same... lol

[@MathijsIgnoul]

@thatswhatshesaidtome I agree, and in my opinion this stuff is much more difficult to preform.

[@GinoTheSinner]

I want tabs for this!!!!!

[@allen_el_punyito]

holy crap this is going to take a long fucking time to learn...

[@yatesesquire]

Where can I find a studio recording of this song?

[@Scorbffeghy]

www.amazon.com/Into-Dark-Andrew-York/dp/B00008OTUI

[@EvanShelest]

lol wow i dont think that comparison has ever been made before lol

[@6Mr6Crowley6]

No, my friend, that is God manifest in human form. There is no other excuse for music like this.

[@YOKIYOKS]

[@Luvinhas]

Andrew looks like a pirate xD

[@vincedonago7861]

[@grongot]

aaarrrrgh! matey

[@jimenezsei]

[@MathijsIgnoul]

@sslfsociety Agreed!

[@MysticTomatoMusic]

sick

[@guitartrip1]

he looks like kirk hammet

[@feee0]

yes

[@jarritos123]

merly????? entonces sta muy chida no ya en serio esta muy chida

[@Cryptoxicon]

He is not underrated actually. Maybe if you just mean the youtube community, then yes.

[@Scorbffeghy]

7 people are afraid of ghosts.

[@TheJayKellz]

I think that some people go to random videos all day just to click the dislike button

[@Ponnybit]

@sslfsociety OH i see what u did there. you're basicly saying that even if this was a video of food being digested and expelled as a way of excrement, it still would be better than eurodancemetal dragon force. yes sir. i agree btw this dude cant eally play the guitar.. lots of feeling

[@turbonbc]

2:06

[@PacoHRGuitar]

I think Andrew is the Chopin of classical guitar: the perfect marriage between technique and deep musical expression. I think that guitarists like Mckee, Dufour, etc. are truly amazing but they are below Andrew because of this: their music "weights" less than the technique; it is too determined by the "physics" of the guitar. Andrew´s music is thought for the guitar (like Chopin´s was for piano) but still would have a lot of entity and depht when performed in another instrument or arrange.

[@Auxon]

Umm, classical. That's a classical guitar. However, all classical guitar is fingerstyle ... unless you play it with a pick Iike I did when I was a kid ... and it pissed off my dad because I was wrecking it.
