Well of course he has a nice voice and guitar he’s Jesus. He didn’t have to make a deal with the devil like Robert Johnson.

[@lazarus2770]

Someone say Jesus?

[@chriseason4008]

This guy is an absolute legend. Self taught for 20+ years, but a month following his videos had made so much difference to my playing. His on the road again lesson is pure gold, should be an award for that.

[@denisvaudrey7366]

Hi Rob this lesson is fantastic. I am learning guitar since I am retired (i'm 64) and i really appreciate your lessons. if you want to visit Strasbourg in France it would be a pleasure for me to host you. thanks to you, I am able to play the great song "wish you were here" by Pink Floyd, it is incridible thanks a lot Denis from France

Very touchy song. It makes me shed tears just to hear every word of it. I am a long lost daughter for 52 years, finally found my Dad who lives his whole life in West Virginia. That's why hearing this song, I can't stop getting emotional. Yeah, " Take me home, West Virginia".

Pulling back whilst pushing your chest forward into the guitar and squeezing is one of the best tips I’ve heard for delivering a great barre chord.

[@samtoubodjona332]

Seriously I just cannot concentrate on my own singing when I have your cover in my head. WHY ARE YOU SO GOOD 😭😭 A like from me, no doubt

[@kenz2756]

Maybe because he's had serious vocal lessons or training? Don't lower yourself, everyone can be good at anything after they've worked for it. I'm not as good as him, but I don't question myself why lol.

[@race9359]

Hey there. You are a solid teacher. Simply explained, patient, each section builds on the last, well done! I see your channel growing even bigger.

You are an amazing teacher. I've played guitar since I was in high school but barely getting back to it after almost two years. This video helped me a lot and you broke down the song very easy for me to learn and remember my rusty chords.
