How is this man not considered in the GOAT convo??

[@michaeljohn-ve3xg]

Because probably hasn't sold his soul! You do know that's the deal

[@jasonsamuels5692]

He actually is, though. One of the only ones who didn't have to sell his soul to get there.

[@TinusTegenlicht]

What is a GOAT?

[@glamper-jan]

Grammy Oscar Academy Award and a Tony winner.

[@iansequeira3352]

You're the most melodic guitarist the world will ever have the pleasure of hearing. Take good care of yourself. I love you and your music, Mr. Timmons. Thank you for being an inspiration and a hero.

[@maximusaugustus6823]

I totally agree, a lot of accomplished artists always play weird gibberish solos and not many people enjoy it.

[@amyantin1]

While we're waiting for a perfect world, this will do. Best wishes from over here.

[@andytimmonsguitar]

Thank you Amy ❤️

[@guyewing1377]

One thing is for sure, this ain't no perfect world but it's definitely a better world because of the passion, creativity and energy of excellent artists like Andy. Thank you.

[@borisblvd5354]

One time, back in about 1985, Andy was playing his guitar on Fry Street, Denton Tx... Fry St. Fair, I think.. I went up to him & asked if he could play "Hello It's Me" by Todd Rundgren..He said "Ummm..I think it's like..."..Then he played the first minute or so. with all those 7th chords....Great memories. Great guitarist.Way back then, around NTSU, everyone knew that Andy would go as far as he wants to go. Always a very nice guy too!!

[@hillsmith]

Dude, your ability ................. phrasing ................. timing ................. God has blessed you immensely, brother! Thank you for sharing.

[@blackburundi]

I'm on my knees, in tears...Andy plays Todd. What else could I ask for?

[@usandthemakakelly2535]

🤗🤙❤️

[@2112Tix]

4:42 beautiful uplifting chord sequence, makes you feel good to be alive. Rock on Andy.

Amazing description!

[@kikitrisna2490]

Yes this could be a theme for a movie

[@raxtapb8256]

Hello Sir . ..im from the phillipines also a Guitarist ..im proud to hear your all sounds.. I love your melodic style and guitar effects and also guitar actualy 😊😁🤘..keep safe sir .God bless ... ..

[@tunoman]

"Theme for a perfect TONE" 😂 Beautiful theme Andy, very catchy progression chords and the melody is OUTSTANDING!

[@jerryporter1700]

Agreed...your comment nailed it...great melody.

[@minkorrh]

Its so FAT, and JUICY.....those are just the adjectives that come to mind when I think of that tone. I would call it a form of 'brownsound', but very much with it's own character and not as 'off the rails' as EVH.

[@ES335Player]

My goodness! What just happened here! Please bring us more melodic perfection! You have earned this beautiful gift!

[@gokdude]

Watching this performance gave me the same feeling of hearing Stairway To Heaven for the first time as a kid... 👏 a million thanks for being you

[@53pittmanjt]

I am feeling the Wizard's influence - holy sh*t this is so fine! Thank you!

[@CC-te5zf]

Andy's music transports me to a settled, comfortable existence. It's just simply perfect.

[@TheDarinAmes]

What a wonderful combo… Andy T. and The ToddFather!

[@MrPrincebass99]

Hello Andy, from ATX. Just discovered this record about a month ago, through a Spotify playlist. Just a superb collection of songs. I listened to it twice today. 'On Your Way...' is such a beautiful tune. I get choked up listening to it every time. So inspiring!

[@valdairpupo245]

A perfect music. 🇧🇷

[@billlucano5422]

Close your eyes. Listen. This is an amazing tribute. Makes me want to sing!

[@fisicaynumeros2720]

Excellent song. The sound of the guitar is amazing. I had the pleasure and honor to know you in NAMM 2020 in Anaheim, just as you are a great guitarist you are a great person. Maybe you remember the Ringo Starr t-shirt you mencioned was your favorite drummer.

[@guitarmainiac80]

Pretty epic!! Tight.👏👏👏👏👍❤

What album are you speaking of?

[@sauronguitar]

theme from a perfect world album

[@usandthemakakelly2535]

@@sauronguitar ok. I was a little blown away from Andys guitar playing, to say the least. What I need to know is why did he hashtag Todd Rundgren and Pat Metheny? Because they're amazing guitarists? It's fascinating for me because Todd and Pat are my first and second favorite musicians EVER. Can you please enlighten me? Thank you for responding so quickly... I can breathe again... 😉

[@markusbecker3446]

Hero!

[@hermanv.b.376]

Got yourself a new fan from Hamilton, Ontario. This piece is beautiful, melodic, and full of little surprises everywhere, and it all ties together very well. Thank you. I found you on Spotify but will now buy your album so I can listen to it full-out.
