One of the best I have heard from TE. Love it when he plays simple, groovy and not so darn fast.

[@HTNT9]

he makes it look effortless...love the dynamics in his playing. Always groovy and I can watch him play all day (mesmerizing watching his hands work the guitar). And that sweep picking was clean as hell.

[@mikeriesco6174]

It was all going fine till the unspeakable improvised sweep lick at 5:00. Then I remembered Tommy is from another universe, and I'm not. 1 minute ago

[@politykanazw2622]

He definitely speaks another language.

[@grayling0865]

Thank you very much! It's great to see Tommy teaching.

[@bobeck5972]

Saw Tommy in concert in SLC a few years back! Even better live! Hope I might be able to attend another Live concert! Thanks Tommy! (Tony Enamel)-)

You know what they say: amateurs borrow, professionals steal!

[@adsm0]

Damn that boy good!

[@stepitupandgo67]

Tommy....just the best of the best....

[@steve60.]

I don't know what took me so long to find this gem, but it's just another example of the master at work. It also makes me realize what a schmuck I am on the guitar !!

[@jpm4897]

That's a monster chord!

[@HoOtgibson70]

Mint Julip. I'll take two. Still, with two under my belt, I'd rather listen to the master play, and later work own it. Good stuff Tommy. Come own back to Arkansas bud, we love you hear!

1:27 I love it when incredibly talented and accomplished guitarists slip up and let on that they look at this instrument the same way that I do, then do a little mental eyeroll and amend it to the "proper" way for all the pedantic types.

[@ChristineLinge]

Great share!! Love Tommy!

[@davidsummerville351]

[@mattkane5329]

Good grief!!!

[@PedroIaco]

q monstro.

[@calima3]

I don't know if "One Mint Julep" was chosen by Tommy personally or it was a request by the "interviewer", be as it may, exceptional choice.

[@user-vf6vq1ty4k]

Give an ear to the back up singers during the bridge as well. Almost better than the sax 😉

[@brucelk19]

Super Sweet riff not so run down lol.. I’m too new I guess I’ll try slowing the video down..

[@rinklednuggets9933]

"slow it down",,,,,,, emmm,,, thanks for that, I've tried....

[@evanwilliams8908]

Weird scratchs. What technique causes that ?

[@AndreaAustoni]

he does it on purpose on new guitars so he can make noises by rubbing the rough wood

[@marvinlake1818]

Check out Louis and Clark by him and you'll see his different sounds
