Had the pleasure of taking my 85 year old father to one of his concerts. He was, of course, blown away!

[@sergiop.ealbuquerque8176]

I'm just guessing here, but I think I can tell that Tommy wasn't feeling so great that day. He was hanging on to his great tunes, as he use to say. His humanity amazes me. He is one of us. And we are all blessed with it. Tommy is the greatest of them all. Including Hendrix, the legend.

[@seasonofreason6221]

This world is a much better place with Tommy playing music in it.

[@danielmconnolly7]

He's the real deal.

[@elveziodangelo2464]

I agree

[@goodyyy6171]

Haha, you are right 😄

[@mike42441]

Tommy's playing is like a fine wine, it just keeps getting better with time 🎸🍷

[@fichambawelby2632]

You're the greatest, Maestro. With long hair, with or without beard. Your hands always look young and agile. Long live to you; the more you live, the happier we are. God bless you, dear Tommy.

[@heathkish6901]

Tommy is an absolute class act, and we're all lucky to share the same planet as him.

[@danielmconnolly7]

He's a pretty good guitar player too... 😛

[@waltergibbs3849]

I have had the pleasure of seeing Tommy Emmanuel twice in Dallas. Introducing both my daughters to his music has been wonderful and to those that haven't had the pleasure to see him in person. Do yourself a favor and seek him out. His talent and love for the instrument comes out in every note he plays.

[@blakesjukebox7907]

You’re the best Mr Emmanuel. The best.

[@guitarlusteuphoria4507]

Tommy is to guitar as Buddy was to drums. Masters.

[@charlesehwa7833]

This is some of the nicest pieces of music, I've heard. A focused series of song's showing me a new direction, in this late spring day.

[@EranRicos]

His deceased brother Phil (3years ago) was his equal. Tommy is now the best

[@walterbordett2023]

Wow, what a great performance. Virtuosity, showmanship, and incredible ability to sell the song. As Wynton Marsalis says, "the juice is in between the notes." Thank you so much for helping us all get through this difficult year. The best to you Tommy and friends and family.

[@jamesbattiest3885]

Tommy I grew up in a family of music 🎶 I have been playing guitar 🎸 since 1966 I also write and record I'm nowhere near playing like you but I love it people like my music and playing I go 2 many jams God bless u Tommy Emmanuel come see me in Duncan Oklahoma

Love you Tommy. Stay safe and well, can’t wait to see you back on the road

[@woodwork5574]

Lewis and Clarke makes me cry every time.

[@Mimir1703]

Tommy hello, I'm a fan of yours. Thank you for your creativity, 8 years ago I saw how you play, you interested me very much ! I live in Russia and have always been fascinated by you ! I wish you good health and live happily ever after!

[@MikeDavid_Davideos]

I admire that even if Tommy Emmanuel never use DADGAD tunings, he could still create arrangements that sounds like they're in DADGAD. One of the most sensible guitar thinkers, may the Lord bless you more wisdom and longer life. Stay safe Tommy

[@texas77581]

Tommy of course a legend but also introducing talented people I didn't know about in the UK. Wonderful stuff, thank you all.

[@tanausu1212]

Applause! Applause! Applause!

[@davidpatrick1813]

I just learned where the title "It's never too late" was inspired. Neat.

[@jimdalton8724]

A musical treasure. Better save this one and put it in a safe place.

[@adaml.8300]

The only positive thing about the pandemic is how much more Tommy content we’ve been getting. It’s like a weekly concert in my living room!

[@henkbouma8917]

The guy will be famous one day, mark my words...

[@danielmconnolly7]

Tommy who..?

[@edgardpedrosilvajunior6947]

Thanks Tommy for sharing such beautiful stuff drenched with your amazing tallent. Very kind of you.

[@SergeUnplugged]

Anyone else can't wait to see Tommy live in concert ?!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@mechanicalmike7320]

I was lucky enough to see him just before the virus, mesmerizing for sure, before you know it, it was over. Loved every minute.

[@RadSergey1987]

Серёга, привет! Ни первый твой комментарий вижу))))) Это Сергей из телеграм группы Алекса Мерси))))

[@NickBaranov]

Saw Tommy live once ! It was mind blowing... looking forward to do this again 😉

[@AG-fl3kl]

I sat in on his masterclass in Auckland, NZ in 1999. Way back... What a privilege.

[@cocolossal69]

I live in Australia... I feel like my chances of ever seeing him live are getting smaller and smaller 😭

[@Cobbmtngirl]

I love your music & welcome to USA!

[@user-zb5dr3cx6k]

Mr. Emmanuel, you are an amazing musician and a true Master. From Russia with love and respect.

[@flashcracker1]

Tommy is my all time favourite guitarist. This is the first time I have seen him play Lewis and Clark and it moved me deeply. Thanks Tommy.

[@lazychap6175]

Amazing song, i first listened to it also here

[@nikkienikkie4310]

I've never seen a performer (other than Buddy Guy) give 1000 % to his audience like I have with Tommy. His energy for his craft is infectious!

[@h2hcamey]

Yes Tommy and Buddy Guy!!! Heart and soul!!

[@johnbrophy890]

I'm thankful every day of the Covid times that my wife and I were able to see both Tommy and Buddy among many others on Joe Bonamassa's Keeping the Blues Alive VI cruise in February 2020 just before live shows shut down.

[@frederikluntungan1531]

THANK YOU...FOR SHARING...MR EMMANUEL..!!

[@edgardpedrosilvajunior6947]

It's wonderful to listen to so beautiful melody, coming from such a talented soul like you, Tommy. Specialy in this tragic times. You enlight our souls. Thank you very much.

[@qppain_killer44]

just close your eyes, and feel the music

[@bascavusunbeygiri8292]

WHO shall pay this guy. Because whenever my mood is down, I listen Tommy instead of taking stupid pills..

[@mihailspil-haufter]

World class! I applauded by my self in my living room.

[@allaboutlearningguitar6413]

That's how you give tribute to your teachers, he got influenced by Chet Atkins, took his ideas and came up with all new ways of playing. I guess he would be so proud of him, as we are... God bless you..

[@guitareveryone]

Great show Tommy. Love your playing. Thanks for your gift to us all. A terrific job by all!

[@docfender1119]

Some people have to work very hard to master their craft...........Tommy is a natural phenom. Spell binding.

[@bobd6711]

There are many great guitarists out there, but I think we’re watching the most highly skilled player right here. Not only in dexterity and expressiveness, but also an incredible sense of rhythm.

[@frameflyerChrisD]

Simply... the Best !!!

[@smalloy88]

Tommy, Rob, and Trey together is really something special

[@dreambeliever3652]

Tommy - you were, you are, and you will be a guitar master for me. Thank you

[@stevemaclay1571]

I remember going to see Tommy at the Hurstville manor hotel in the early 80s. He said hello to me when he was on a break and i remember being blown away by not only his ability but his humility. Next time I saw him he was rocking Dragon with his boogie at Armidale Uni. He will always be one of my most admired guitarist in the world. His brother too was a humble man but a legend.

[@evangart3588]

A M A Z I N G performance !!! .. with ` numbers of wonderful things !!! ... but .. STAY CLOSE TO ME !!! this piece from Heaven !!! my God ! there is sooo much heart in it !!!
