M. Tallstrom - Convertible (Masaaki Kishibe) cover

[@CraigRelyea]

Beautiful, really love the consistent movement in this, impossible not to tap your foot. Your arrangement with the lap steel, percussion, etc, is spot on. Thanks Martin, always inspiring!

[@diegoruizguitar]

Wonderful!

[@vldmr3]

A touch of overdriven guitar at the end adds so much to the feeling of this piece. Great job!

[@hyperhippyhippohopper]

Sounds so calming, relaxing. I've replayed it 3 times already. Thanks Martin!

[@timothytan3095]

That Astrand guitar has wicked tone! Absolutely enchanting!

[@daveweaversguitar]

Your touch and time are amazing! Thank you for this and all that is to come.

[@AlbertGyorfi]

Beautiful playing of a masterpiece! It's always a joy listening to you, Martin! :)

[@CNlyrical]

Ooooh, it's a pleasure to listen to your playing!

[@peteradahl5147]

Wow! I in so glad to hear this🙏

[@tallstrom]

Tack Peter, hoppas allt är bra 🙂👍

[@peteradahl5147]

@tallstrom Tack själv Martin! Det är helt ok! Hoppas allt är ok med dig! Mycket inspiration från din musik men framförallt från ditt gitarr spel med din speciella feeling och teknik. Jag har fortfarande kvar de noter och tabs du skickade till mig för länge sedan. Nu efter mycket slit har jag äntligen tack vare inspiration från dig lyckas lära mig rätt så hyvsatt fungererande finger picking. Vilket är hur fantastiskt som helst på ålders höst . Kram och vänliga hälsningar Peter Ådahl

[@peteradahl5147]

[@bertoldwerner8889]

Starting 2016 with a wonderful touching song. Great playing as always, Marin.

[@kaputasri]

That lap steel guitar adds a nice country touch.

[@tallstrom]

+kaputasri Thanks! That´s my main goal - always add either a country or blues touch! Or maybe just a folky touch.

[@BillClarke]

Wow....this was simply so beautifully played.....really well done.....Bill

[@BambiBoiz]

Fantastic as always. Thank you Martin!

[@BardMoon]

I love the guitarist who likes my favorite song playing. Also, the sound is beautiful because it is arranged differently from the original song. Listening every day!

[@tallstrom]

Thank you very much Bard, I am glad to hear that.

[@limesquared]

Great energy in this song and great cover.

[@SomeTimeGuitarist]

Beautiful !

[@SOUNDsculptures]

Gorgeous

[@lupuscanis6713]

Fantastic cover!

[@robebouch]

Like it very much, beautiful !

[@tallstrom]

The tuning for this one is, to put it in an easy way, DADGAD with the two lowest strings tuned down a full step: CGDGAD. Here I use a Light Medium set from Elixir, 012-056.

[@tallstrom]

+Martin Tallstrom A medium 013-056 would´ve worked maybe even better...

[@danbodley9082]

+Martin Tallstrom I don't speak genius but it sure sounds purty

[@ChrisBurgarellaLegacy]

+Martin Tallstrom Amazing that you use a thick heavy string,i use 10-46 on all my guitars,my hummingbird was bowing and hair line crack with 12s

[@tallstrom]

+Chris Burgarella Legacy Interesting... Well, better safe than sorry, I guess :) This is however a very low tuning, low C on the E-string is baritone low! And the Åstrand necks are graphite reinforced.

[@peterjongsma2754]

Exquisite.

ミッドナイトドライブできました。ありがとうございます。

[@沢木sawaki]

僕の好きなこの曲を、さらに素敵に彩ってくださり嬉しいです。音質が悪いのが残念です。

[@GuillermoZegovia]

Todo es perfecto, no veo mala calidad de sonido

[@danielibnz]

Yet another impecable performance. The flow of the notes and repetition of the passages recalls something... the coming of Spring or Summer, as you said. To think that I never heard of this song... and there are several covers on KZbin. Being a variation on DADGAD (Pierre Bensusan's favorite tuning) it's bound to be inspiring. This time I will say something: I always spot and like the way you put your capo (like Tony Rice and some few others) while some well-known and acclaimed guitarists use heavy spring capos installed just in the middle of the fret or slanted, and they claim that the tuning should be lowered some cents on the low strings, as to compensate the raising effect of the capo... (?).

[@danielibnz]

@Tjokkaflens It’s a Spanish surname, actually written “Ibañez”

[@erdBAERtorte]

nice one!

[@sunaJH]

Another great tune, Martin when are you gonna tour California/Central Valey so we can see you perform?

[@ryo4228]

Hello!! Please tell me the manufacturer of this guitar

[@tallstrom]

Hello, it's an Åstrand OM (or Astrand) guitar.

[@ryo4228]

@@tallstrom Thank you! I will try to find out if it is possible to get it in Japan

[@tallstrom]

@@ryo4228 I think they are available here on order www.mikigakki.com/ But note they have become crazy expensive! :O

[@fcbarcelona801]

Great cover! Gives me chills every time I listen to it:) I don't know if you got me message , but do you have an mp3 download available for your cover? Please let me know. Thanks.

[@tallstrom]

+Yositevoyacusar Hassan Thank you :) It will be on an upcoming album (Don´t Fret) but no problemo, I can send you an mp3, I will need an email address however. You can PM me.

[@mangopsb]

you manage are the recordings and playing? always pleasure to listen your works!:))

[@tallstrom]

+Park Sung bin Thank you for the kind comment! I´m not sure I understand the question... You mean if I record the instruments myself? If so, yes I do. I use Cakewalk SONAR.

[@mangopsb]

+Martin Tallstrom sorry *are-->all 😂

[@tallstrom]

+Park Sung bin Yep, I can cheat on a number of instruments :)

[@piotrstangierski7475]

It is a genius !:D

[@aggabus]

One guitar per One million vwz Or 1/2

[@DoesMusicChangeTheWorld]

I liked Martins early guitar work very much, but I think this is overproduced en just to much. It's moving away from the naturel guitar sound to much for me

[@tallstrom]

+Arie van de Wetering It might be... However, I just love (over)producing, I´m actually holding back here ;) I´ll probably do some more solo acoustic stuff in the future. Cheers
