Private Concert - G4 2017 Joe Satriani, Tommy Emmanuel play "Stevie's Blues" and "Johnny B Goode"

Joe Satriani, Phil Collen, Tommy Emmanuel, Paul Gilbert, Jon Mover, Stu Hamm start with "Stevie's Blues" and then move to "Johnny B Goode"

[@capaneo]

Tommy Emmanuel is like fountain of positive energy. Not many other humans are like him, let alone guitar players.

I don't recall ever seeing a guitarist have as much fun as Tommy does when playing. He simply exudes joy every time I see him play.

[@shreddykrueger3776]

It's a part of his act. He's an entertainer and quite witty.

[@howardcroft3748]

I've read an interview with Tommy where he credits his mother for teaching him that it wasn't enough to play the guitar well.. you had to engage with the audience and be an entertainer. I think he might have listened to her!

How much fun it is to see Tommy completely rock out! Love it.

[@anthonycashero7605]

The whole week was fantastic.

[@andreghouse6069]

Joe Satriani is such a gentleman. He would make any top ten list of the best guitarists in the world, and the respect he pays to Tommy is humbling to watch.

[@phenixreturns]

joe is humble, nice like all his fans the way to be a guitar hero if not > bad players:)

[@bripslag]

The respect to Tommy is deserved, and you can see Tommy respects Joe (and Phil) as well.

[@a-02shubhamadki67]

What are you smoking? Tommy is better than joe

[@leomonster1973]

Even the hero's have hero's, Tommy is great, how about Phil Collen Definatley flying under the Radar in Def Leppards song before guitar solo phil-osophy

[@BT-fg1is]

For sure.

[@MidCoastAdventures]

The respect shown to Tommy is great to see, and well deserved. He is truly an amazing guitarist.

[@tomm5780]

The power of music, it brings musicians from different styles together to play and have fun.

[@mrmusketier453]

Who ever the bass player is, he looks like he is like a little child, having a god damn ball !

[@musicandthewalk]

Yeah he is definitely a GOAT

[@MartinLohmueller]

These are three guitarists that changed my life while getting older. It started with the DefLep guy Phil Collen, it continued with Satch and finally I discovered T.E. So for me this lineup is pretty off the charts.

[@braddenyar3641]

And Tommy is a true gentleman too, met him years ago at Downtown Music in Annandale, I was a kid and he still chatted to me for ages and taught me how to tune my guitar so it would stay in tune.

[@richardmotel6623]

I never compare musicians talent but tommy loves what he does and i cant stop smiling the whole time he plays!!!

[@monkey1504]

It's like the high school battle of the bands, then the teachers decide they've had enough of the kids and show them how it's done. Love it.

I was there and it awesome! Once-in-a-lifetime experience.

[@darylcadman2863]

He did an album years ago called.... Dare To Be Different. Electric the whole album. Check it out its the bomb! Love his accustic playing, but needs to balence it out abit more with electric. Daryl New Zealand

[@darrenmcfarlane1910]

Tommy will still be dynamic when he’s 100

[@iliveinsin]

Tommy Emmanuel was the first concert I attended when I was 13 in Australia. Got to see him again when I was 16. Both concerts were him electric with his full band. Huge sound and amazing band. He was my inspiration as a guitarist. He is such a down to earth, likeable and natural entertainer. I'm glad over time he has achieved the global recognition he deserves. 🎸🤘

[@Darvistas]

I share your exact story, Launceston Tasmania when 13 years old 😊 blew my mind, still does

[@20centswortht91]

When Joe openly humbles himself and bows to Tommy it is a true mark of respect.... it would have been amazing to have heard Tommy play with SRV as neither of them needed to look at what they were doing coz they were so 'in the zone'... awesome !!

[@kmcdowell77]

I happened to see and hear Tommy Emmanuel live on Dec 5 in Lincoln, NE. He is among the greatest guitar players who has ever lived. I was totally blown away.

[@sjertz]

We saw him last year at the Coach House in San Juan Capistrano, CA. OMF'ing G!!!!!!!!!!

[@barbarag.5521]

Kelly McDowell Yes. And he shares his knowledge on YT. Guitar lessons! What a gift!

[@SpeedisH94]

[@dionermen842]

He is great but i do not think he is amongst the beat that ever lived. There are and have been guitarist just as good and or better. SRV, EVH and many more

[@punishr36]

Well Dion there is no bigger Eddie fan than myself as I was trying to learn his shit in the late 70's. I'm an accomplished guitarist and I couldn't say this with the amount of deserved passion that Tommy is by far the most incredible acoustic guitarist I have ever seen (3) times. SRV had a smooth style with some great licks and could write and sing and perform and was incredible. EVH is the most innovative electric guitarist to have ever lived. He could have retired after eruption as a god. But Tommy is so versatile and creative. He plays drums on the damn guitar, go check it out and enjoy. Cheers from Canada.

[@Kashed]

Tommy Emmanuel is amazing!

[@topografer]

I am never getting bored of what Joe Satriani has to play

[@MrRich-yp7eu]

sure is, his solo on the first tune is great as well. Surprised to see him play simple bluesy lines like that.

[@WreckOfLamb]

Tommy E is the best guitar player alive.

[@SimonBrisbane]

*One of the best. There is no “best” like there is no “best” composer. He is truely epic and there are others also at epic level. That’s taking nothing away from Tommy either, he will always be a great. We are all richer for the many greats. Tommy himself was inspired largely by another legend - the amazing Chet Atkins.

[@WreckOfLamb]

@@SimonBrisbane your opinion, my opinion. You hide behind an alias, I don’t.

[@prdxlex]

@@WreckOfLamb youre such a passive aggressive, close minded boomer. he didnt even disagree with your opinion

[@AdamR320]

I'm happy that Joe Satriani, a person who I immensely respect and admire, also thinks that Tommy is just on another level. There are many levels of great, but very few people ever become a transcendent master at something as artful as being a musician. Tommy is one such person.

[@markpr73]

Holy shit! That first cut was awesome! Joe's rhythm playing during Tommy's lead runs was worth the price of admission alone.

[@tedhoeborn2310]

I've been to 12 Tommy concerts since 2008....geez, what a talent. It's hard to believe that somebody can master an instrument like that until you see it.

[@honus20]

Exactly. And the nicest guy in the world, as is Satriani.

[@kleinzak8437]

Dang!!! Only 12 ?😀 I am soooo jealous. Don’t think Tommy has ever been to South Africa😔

so cool, Joe and Tommy together on the same stage, 2 of my favorite guitarists in the world! Thanks for posting!

[@venom663]

For me joes improvisation skills and choice of notes is simply the best. For me the best at anything melodic on electric guitar.

Wonderful, Satriani, Emmanuel, and friends, for a Super guitarist : SRV.

[@kodiakfamily8032]

That was great! I never would have thought Satch and a telecaster would have been on the same stage! What I liked the most was Joe's subtle rhythm guitar on the first half of Stevies song. Reminded me kind of Steve Luthaker on Rossana. Very nice, very subtle. Tommy - what a guitarist and entertainer. You can just tell, he loves music and loves sharing. I think he is one of those extraordinarily rare guitarist that can literally be dropped in any venue and shine. Phil sounds great as well! Great post!!!

[@oaguilera81]

Holy sh*t. Tommy is a MONSTER. A true legend.

Old days..... ....Gilmour is 75 and can still burn the castle down

[@Slugg-O]

Without question these are two of the very best guitar players on the planet. Would love to have heard more of Tommy's guitar but having the cam next to Joe's stack smoked him out. Still an awesome clip. Not only is it rare to see a private concert, it's super rare to see a private concert with two monster guitarists. Big props to whoever recorded this.

[@richardthomas1572]

Tommy Emmanuel,,One of a Kind....Guitar Legend...

[@kevinkilduff2064]

There is not a single style of music Tommy can't play with top of the line excellence. Man, Joe's guitar sounds superb! would love to see "Mr. Blues" Larry Carlton rocking with these greats. Doesn't get any better than this!

[@AshShearer]

Tommy is a gem!

[@frogworth1622]

That little girl rockin out at 5:00 is awesome and puts a smile on my face. Hope one day she remembers and appreciates the day she saw absolute legends of the instrument.

Thougt the same, maybe she started to play in the meantime?

[@the_truthdealwithit4217]

Tommy is the best!!! Period! The dude can play any style better than anyone else!

[@jayquanvo5134]

I don't think anyone can beat Tommy on acoustic guitar. He has no equal from anyone I know of or have seen. How he manages to have exceptional rhythm, melody and beat at the same time is just Godly. As an electric guitarist he's as amazing and holds his own against any virtuoso blues/rock guitarist.

[@stevecoyle1]

Tommy is tops.

[@MrLeif1942]

Endast musikare kan bedöma kvaliteten på musiken, alla ni tondöva låta bli att komma med en kommentar.😎😎

Being a fellow Australian and having seen Tommy play many times, my memories are more of him playing electric with a full band. To appreciate this id suggest checking out his award winning album The Journey (circa 1993)

[@flamecrew9atroblox958]

Two legends. Two songs. One masterpiece.

Id love to meet Tommy some day. Ive never seen such a positive happy energic person.

Tommy Emmanuel is as a fine a human being as he is a guitar player. I kind of know a local player name of Loren Barrigar who attended a workshop Tommy held in Nashville. They've been friends ever since. He loves sharing the stage. He loves teaching. He loves talking to fans.

Wow! Satriani plays Tommy Emmanuel's version of SRV's Scuttle Buttin' (A.K.A Stevie's Blues) - Great thing that Tommy could do a dive bomb using a Telecaster. A lot of guitar magics under his sleeves

[@acehandler1530]

Joe Satriani has made and played some of the finest music in this Universe. His precision and ability to create new technique to "bring it here" has no equal IMHO.

[@joguipo]

Nashville tele. With a middle pickup. Very nice indeed.

[@mwhearn1]

big fan of all three. being in Australia I've only seen tommy live (three times). I couldn't help but notice how rockin' it sounds when he is playing rhythm. he has the most amazing ear and can pick up a song so quick. about ten years ago, I was listening to the radio and it was country music week up in Tamworth (our version of Nashville). Tommy was in the radio studio did his interview and played a couple of songs. the announcer asked him to stay and play guitar for the singers lined up to be on the show. Tommy did, and played amazing guitar for about a dozen singers who did a couple of songs each. only at the end of the show did Tommy tell us that he had never heard any of the songs before, he was playing by ear the whole time. total freak!

[@bobsaturday4273]

"dozen singers who did a couple of songs each" thats impressive ...but why does it fail to surprise me ?

[@merenco]

Thx for posting! Who cares about sound here? This is legendary! Passion for music is what I here :-)

[@pclm]

I love how Tommy looks like a geography teacher no matter what he's doing or who he's sharing the stage with.

[@cocolossal69]

It's funny, these guys get on stage together with nothing but mutual respect and the joy of playing together. No egos, sharing solos... It's pure magic up there. It's only when you read some of the comments that you remember how much people suck. It's a bucket load of "my hero is better than your hero". FFS just enjoy the moment.

[@mrguitarwho5500]

T. E. RULES! never knew he had that style. soo good.

I remember the first time I saw Tommy play live, it was at a music exhibition/guitar show at the RNA show grounds in Brisbane in the late 80's. I had only just started playing and fell in love with the then new Ibanez jem 777 which was on display at the Ibanez stand. My Dad was with me and he said let's go and see Tommy play at one of the stages. I had never even heard of him before but my dad was a fan. I knew we were about to be blown away when he come on the stage and introduces himself and then says " For those who haven't seen me play before, don't worry I won't break the guitar!" He definitely didn't disappoint.
