King Crimson - Red - classical guitar cover

[@TomiV.]

Whole KC in one player. Just incredible!

[@hughjohnson2674]

This is glorious, tears of joy are running down my face, my favourite Crimso piece, and with the same attack and presence!

[@Dani-ge2wv]

Fantastico Paul Gordon Manners! Fantastico. Magnifica esecuzione su un pezzo di incredibile difficoltà e bellezza.

[@theeclecticist06]

Best cover ever in a sense that Id never expect anyone to play this on classical and this masterful... big respect Paul !

[@paulgordonmanners]

Thank you. It was quite a challenge

[@gillaume]

Fantastic, excellent !! A big good surprise for me. Thank you

[@DonSSanders]

Just sorry KZbin doesn't have Star ratings anymore...I would give you ALL the stars for an awesome cover of a masterpiece.

[@paulgordonmanners]

BRAVO❤️⭐️❤️⭐️

[@joaopedro-me8tt]

Amazing performance in classical guitar of this celebrated tune.When i watch this musician singing musical box and playing the guitar at the same time i realize it was agreat achievement .and i spoke about giant guitar players doing only instrumental genesis music.Now i realized that this men is also a giant guitar player.Tanks for your work,Those tunes of progressive rock bands deserve imortality like bach or haendel music.Thanks from lisbon.

[@pablo-colangelo]

Amazing!!!!! This is the best red´s cover i've ever heard!!! Ten point Paul, wonderful job!!!

[@lucasaugusto1563]

Amazing! This is why I'm trying to learn guitar. Best of music played by a great musician.

[@jayden28430]

I keep coming across your videos. They are so great. Thanks for posting.

[@hyperboreal]

Spot-on arrangement! Can´t believe I miss this one for three years.

[@NoGuts_NoGlory]

This is amazing

[@paulgordonmanners]

Thank you for all your beautiful comments Pedro... Paul

[@alanw7763]

One of the best covers of the best music every recorded. Beautiful thank you for making my day.

[@zhandoatosl]

Wow. That is amazing. Was it Bach who said the guitar is a whole orchestra in six strings? Well that was a one heavy one man rock band! One of my favorite rock compositions captured perfectly.

[@zigzag2510]

Absolutely beautiful!!! Love and respect, from Italy

[@MillerGenuineDraft1980]

This just proves that a song can be many things. Back in 2011 i found a cover of Red by a Power Trio called Niacin. Obviously i was drawn to it because the Hammond Organ replaced the Guitar. This Classical Guitar version here is also killer. Well Done Paul

[@panzer-head]

Wow! Simply stunning.

[@bertpraxenthaler5543]

Wow, great. That masterpiece made my day! THANK YOU!

[@lawrencewittenberg6594]

[@farfan3584]

Excelent!

[@felipetoledodiaz1928]

10/10 Very good

[@claesvanoldenphatt9972]

The way you play this makes me think Fripp must have written it on acoustic guitar because it makes such sonic and fretboard sense.

[@MrLeoYaus]

ok.. Robert Fripp himself has time.. he needs to log on and say well done

[@paulgordonmanners]

Hahahaha Leo. That would be a dream come true. Thank you so much. You made my day ...Paul

[@andxmenx]

Agree

[@JosephRhinewine]

@@paulgordonmanners Come to NYC area in August and play it for him! robertfrippsguitarcircle.com/

[@infowarriorone]

Wow. Nice.

[@richardnowicki1051]

[@priyas.8141]

This guy looks like Paco De Lucia and his technique is reminiscent of Paco's playing style. What a fabulous rendition of a classic King Crimson song! Kudos!

[@abanana2561]

Kickass

[@danielberbeth]

FANTASÍSTICO! :)

[@paulgordonmanners]

@Roger No. That's standard classical guitar tuning. Glad you enjoyed... Paul

[@okinotayu]

Applause of the delight ! !!!!!!!! \@@/ Great !

[@Ibrian8888]

Encore.... Be blessed 🍺🤗cheers

[@crispiegee1]

That is some enviable talent, Paul. Maddening, in a way! ;-) Do you ever play in the USA?

[@REPay1000]

I am Robert but not Fripp of that name...but in his name I salute this recording!

[@gregp8]

WOW!!!!!

[@LG-wb1jf]

muy buenooo

[@stevearle]

Very nice arrangement... (love the middle section!) and fun video too! (Is there an octaver on the low E ?....sounds great , just wondered) Well Done!

[@paulgordonmanners]

stevearle Yes there is. Thanks for listening ...Paul

[@Jonathan-mt9up]

@@paulgordonmanners May I ask how you got the octaver to only affect the low E string on a classical guitar?

[@yutakahaniya]

I'm a fan of you in Japan.

[@stratjdr]

This is simply tremendous. Fantastic job across the board. Although you have stated you are in standard tuning, is your A = 440? I know it may be and I am at work so I can't grab a guitar and check, but that pedal E just feels lower than a standard E. Regardless, great work.

[@paulgordonmanners]

Hi Darin. Thanks for your appreciation. The tuning is A at 440hz but I use an octaver on the bass strings. Have fun... Paul

[@pollaris18]

Very nice Paul! (Y)

[@04041919]

Any chance to get this as mp3-file? Fantastic cover!!!!

[@bouldlad]

Nice Job! Is that in Fripps New standard tuning? I can't tell without an instrument to hand.

[@simonenicolai3473]

Una parola sola: Wow!

[@flanguy71]

Spectaculsome.

[@ezequielmartinez2042]

It would be nice if you could make a slower version to show part to part how to play it, Thanks to you I could play Peace and cadence and cascade copying your hands but this is more difficult. Thanks! ;)

[@legionimprov]

Do you have a score available for this that you can share?
