Monte Montgomery and Tommy Emmanuel

[@pilotdavems]

Doesn't get any better folks. Absolutely awesome !! Thank you Monte, and Tommy.

[@JeffArmbruster]

Monty is awesome he played a few songs for us at our Keller Williams mega camp in Austin last week.UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

[@mossyburger]

i completely agree. monte's acoustic-electric tone is amazing, and tommy's got so much feel! they are both my fav acoustic players too!

[@garyguitar]

Both are great, reallllly great, just different flavors as is Joe Pass. I've been playing in bands for 45 years, love em all!

[@magisterpz]

I don't think you'll find any two better than these two.

[@TREYOLDHIPPIE]

I dont need to decide who is best, I just love finding truly fine, exquisite STUFF.. thanks for sharing this great stuff. We need it, 4-sho, hard times bring us to great music In the spirit of sharing, lets not forget the fine sprits of Sonny Landreth's axe

[@burtonkd1]

in my opinion these are the 2 best acoustic players out there each has a very distinct style Monte uses absolutly every inch of his whole hand to mute/squeal/and wiggle, and Tommy uses his whole body to keep the rhythm...sometimes he uses the whole body of the guitar to beat out a rhythm both are extreamly uniqe players and if you havent heard them before I highly recomend it.

[@gestiontransparenteinmobiliari]

no quiero morir sin ver estos dos jugar

[@ejlister]

Hoooooly crap! These two actually got together and the world didn't explode?!

[@richiemabie]

agree 100%, they are the 2 best till someone shows me different

[@HytekFred]

Well yeah, check Joe Pass. Billy Strings. Al DiMeola. John McLaughlin. Dead guys too, like Allan Holdsworth, Ollie Halsall, and Tommy's brother Phil. But I could listen to these two all day NP.

[@richiemabie]

most def,love them both just found tommy e couple of months ago

[@jammasterquo]

im so glad noone is arguing over who is a better guitar player, and we're just enjoying the amazing combo of these two guitarists. I agree that if tommy's voice was a bit more powerful, it would compliment the song much better. but, how on earth can anyone pick flaws in these two?!

[@CasperEsmann]

Awesome !!

[@jugglingchef]

@relarson I was there too!!!!!!!!! Good God that was an amazing show!!!!!!!

[@MichaelInsinger]

a lot of fun, i like both

[@thealaskapicker8628]

Interesting... so rare to hear Tommy Emmanuel sing

[@tomica2524]

Song : Willie's Shades -Doug Ashdown

[@AndriyBondarenko]

Томми всю песню держит ритм, Монтгомери импровизирует в заданных рамках и немного вне)) великолепно.

[@guhitan]

@burtonkd1 what about al dimeola, paco delucia and john mclaughlin's (?) trio in san fran? thought that was a pinnacle of acoustic guitar performance as well

[@richiemabie]

The power of an Alverez !

[@kissthesettingsun]

2 people did not like this song. I wanna know what they think is a good song if those two thought that this wasn't one.

[@risingsun1987]

nice solo by Montgomery

[@nezpercenathan]

Different genre, granted, but why does everyone forget Christopher Parkening, The Romeros, etc., when the subject of best guitarist comes up? Wonder how many TE and MM fans have even heard CP or Angel?

[@davidbrucemusicvideo]

GOAT 3:42 😳😳

[@leofaino]

think he said "sold the newspapers"

[@thescowlingschnauzer]

I think you mean Tony Enamel. ; )

[@e_david]

Tommy played this song in Hungary too.I was looking for this but i couldnt find.Does anybody know the title of this song?

[@Jrg320]

@richiemabie I'd say that Phil Keaggy is easily in their league.

[@bozzojoe]

I know both Monte and Phil and they are both stellar. A player myself for 52 years, Monte is my favorite of all time.

[@burtonkd1]

@guhitan Those guys are great too, but to me these guys are the best.

[@lowsebs]

right!!!

[@Pyrthas]

@hellookelly Kinda hard to compare across styles like that. I mean, I'm not gonna sit here and try to pick the better of Django and Freddie Green. They're just both at the absolute top of what they did.

[@richiemabie]

@musicbwr schweet !!

[@voukis6]

@ burtonkd1 εδώ έχουμε τις 2 καλύτερες ακουστικές παίκτες ..... παρακαλώ dont ξεχάστε το τρίτο ericroch .......... ε. ..........

[@Gungosh]

absolutely. tommy and monte ... this is a perfect event, two guitar gods together, wow. check out the account "rpoland" (aka candyrat records) for some other very good guitarists (let's say guitar angels instead of guitar gods :-)

[@killashags]

Joe Pass is awesome!

[@greywolf271]

No, the music just got better

[@tiborhajdu976]

someone pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease write the songs name

[@ABJF84]

The name of the song is "Willie's Shades"

[@Narrakan]

Haha, surprisingly enough. I swear these two have ADHD. :P Good stuff...@ejlister

[@hegemoniuspiper]

monte is good

[@augfive]

cant say who the two best are.. way too many.. matter of taste. ever hear pat metheny

[@kissthesettingsun]

Totally favorited!!! What? Favorited is not a word? FU Oxford English dictionary.

[@instrumentenfreak]

newton faulkner should be with them...

[@skaedis]

You worry about the best guitarist. Why is that? Parkening said Segovia is the best and many disagree on that. There is no best guitarist but many brilliant musicians. Personally I must say Parkening and many other classical guys are just as cold as frozen stones with their educated attitudes which don't let them jam and have fun like real entertainers do. How about Joe Pass and Martin Taylor by the way?

[@zougrocks]

Tommy's vocals don't match much of their guitar wizardry. I wish it could be more powerful and real bluesy.

[@newjustice1212]

monte is better

[@szikcsova]

Maybe I am ignorant but this has nothing to do with acoustic guitar. The guy sucks on it. Good electric guy though...
