Isaac Guillory: Slow Down

[@marcseccombe2869]

Isaac was a teacher and a friend, I was very lucky to play this song one day with him in his camper van in California House in Devon. I had just turned the life support off on my daughter the very day before, he at the time was terminal, we smoked a big ass spliff and just enjoyed a moment. This song has been a mantra to me since, when ever I try to rush my life , or feel its all getting too much, I have this, just to remind me, of friends found, loves lost and love found. Thank you Issac, you got me through the bad times through to a the turn of the sun, to wake up and just be great full to take the first breath of a new day. Sorely missed but never forgotten x

Marc, oh my God that is heartbreaking. And what a beautiful song this is.

thanks for this

This guy played Darlington Arts Centre. I was blown away. Firstly by the music and artistry, and secondly by the fact he was playing Darlington Arts Centre.

When I see these videos, it makes me miss my friend very much...Isaac and I were members of the Cryan' Shames in the 60's. So many great memories ..

Not only was Isaac immensely talented but a lovely guy. Such a sad loss.

[@bomakalu]

I had the good fortune of playing this old guitar. The intonation kept going out but it had a nice chunky feel. A lovely bloke with a gift for so much musically. he also was a very genuine chap off the stage when sharing a beer. Not forgotten!

So simple. So subtle. So brilliant. The Maestro! [Tyneside, England.]

17 years today. Miss you brother. x

[@TheLedward]

stumbled into a performance tent at cambridge folk festival in 88 and saw this guy [ unknown to me at the time] and was blown away. how can talent like this go largely ignored?

[@daveg1683]

he is soooooooooo not ignored!!!

[@JesseCaine]

+lloyd edwards Because most people's minds and souls are closed off :(

[@stevelinley1073]

Hey, snap! Same tent, same year. He was playing 'La Bamba' like I'd I'd never heard before, and I was never the same again. Such a dreadful loss, seeing these videos brings a tear to my eye even after all these years

[@CaerUrfa]

He used to gig very often in South Shields, such a genuine good man. R.I.P.

[@starfish370]

I had the honour and pleasure to meet Ike a few times and each was a beautiful occasion! RIP and thankyou. Great respect @-}--

[@blueskiesflyer]

He's amazing, sadly we don't have the chance to enjoy him live, R.I.P Isaac.

[@bittercjp]

Thanks for posting this, a great guitarist with real soul and technical brilliance sad we didnt see more of him - i never saw him live but heard an amazing desk recording of him in telfords warehouse, chester, UK and heard some great storys telling what a good fella he was, posts like this show me just what i missed - thanks again

[@kulcuthbert1]

WOW - just beautiful xx

[@markwb0]

Thank you for uploading this amazing guitarist.

[@jojojam6012]

When they talk about " best acoustic guitarists " how dare they not include him. Saw him in Spilsby once. Gobsmacked. R.I.P.

[@DavidCKendall]

tears and beauty

[@ribraff]

Very special and sadly missed

[@trailkeeper]

He was born at "Gitmo", had something to do with/played with the Cryan' Shames which is a very interesting band to say the least.

unreal south shields,england

[@SmackDownBrown49]

By the way, love this video. Excellent performer.

[@Brandon75689]

Odd how you find things. I searched this guy up finding out he is the father of Sienna Guillory. Who played Jill Valentine in the Resident Evil movies.
