I have been turned on to Luca for four years now,I found him when i was following the Cello brothers,he has the talent of three guitarist at once,plus he does great covers for all the great rock songs and makes them into artistic pieces of music,he has some friends and family that play his style,they are good also.Thank you Luca for sharing your Rare gift and style of music with us,its a special blend of talent and raises the bar when it comes to playing three different sheets of music on one guitar,a fan for life,Stoney from Guam

Hey Ladybug, if you like masterful, good music, have you heard of Home Free? They're an a capella group. You should check them out. I'm another old lady (just a couple years shy of my 7th decade) but damn, they're good. First time in my life I've ever been a fan girl. (Not even when the Beatles came over.) They sing everything. They're as good without instruments as Luca is with his guitar. God bless.

@@nose16 Yes! I am subscribed to everyone but Misco. I will look him up. Marcin is a prodigy, but, I did not want to be discourteous to Luca by speaking of him. I used Tommy Emmanuel, as, he is a legend, and I thought it was appropriate for my description, but, otherwise, I wanted to just focus on Luca’s music. Thank you for the other names, though. That was kind of you.

I was wondering myself why I haven't seen any cover of this song by any exceptionel guitarist yet - but finally one decided to do so. And it is just great. Not about a doodeling solo but the beat, the rhythm. Perfect!

​@@punishr36 Tommy Emmanuel you mean? Yes, I know he is also a brilliant guitar player, and I really like his arrangements too. Classical Gas in his arrangement is totally mind blowing. But I find his style to be a bit more conservative than Luca's.

[@punishr36]

@@alexeymoiseevskiy2619 Agreed as this style of Lucas in my opinion all started from Michael Hedges and has morphed into this incredible style. Tommy's finger picking is second to none along with his massive repertoire but these newer guys are in a league of their own. Cheers.

[@cagolan]

This ! Had to be said ! 100% agree bro !

[@cameronsurrette4613]

Playing like this is not hard. All you have to do is make sure each finger hits the exact string it’s supposed to at the exact time it’s supposed to. You only have to have each finger working independently of each other. You just have each hand performing 3 or 4 different functions at the same time. And be able to compose it and put in all the beats and create a complexity of sounds unrivaled today. Any idiot with an IQ of 180 could play like this if they were also a guitar savant.

[@TotalDramaHarold]

Yeah seems pretty easy

[@andririki1298]

I was hoping you would play the solo, because this solo is one of the best. Still amazing tho.

[@CampfireGuitarHero]

[@matteob7320]

In fact in spite of the excellent execution I don't think it was a good choice 'cause this track is the solo, nothing else. One is listening to it just waiting for that.

[@kimmefford2814]

This is So beautiful. No matter what, he brings true joy to the listening audience. But logic doesn’t seem to be able to completely support that all we’re seeing on the screen is all there is. Are you truly not using any other kind of device? Think of those who are trying to emulate you if you are setting up an impossible standard by Not MENTIONING if there is at least ONE other thing contributing to the sound. I do understand the amazing guitar and instrumental playing, as was American Idol contest, Alejandro Aranda. But something about this being ALL we see on the screen doesn’t seem fathomable. If so, you are an ANOMALY IN TNE WORLD & SHOULD BE ADMIRED & SHARED WITH THE ENTIRE PLANET & HUMAN RACE! You are a true phenomenon, from what I watch here on screen
