[@KM-qx6nh]

Yeah..........I can say nothing else than this clip was fkn unbelievable..... this is a kid that was BORN to play guitar.....let's be real.....no one can match David Gilmour note for note or rift for rift on this tune. This kid, being born to play, shows you exactly why, if you are FKN GOOD, you do not have to play this tune note for note........ I was a kid when this music came out ....Ive heard it a billion times, and by many cover artists...... this kids cover could be overdubs of the real thing, and NO ONE would ever be able to detect the difference. The reason why ? He does not just play it, at 12 yrs old, he feels it. He is not trying to copy an artist, he IS an artist and is simply playing it as he FEELS it........and it is as good as the original, even not being the same exactly. My point......he is THIS good at 12........just wait until he is 22....... holy yit ! At 60yrs old, I may start going to concerts again if he travels near.

But aside from the skill it takes his memory from learning all these songs is really impressive. It takes most players a long time to learn complex solos like this from constant practicing. This young man can cover any of the greats. He's not reading music he is just going with the flow. These are complex finger arrangements and he performs them effortlessly. He's a prodigy. I watched him go toe to toe with Carlos and it was amazing how this relatively newcomer kept up with Carlos strum for strum.

And even at his now age of 12 years old he can do just as good or better than any of them !! Also, you obviously are just focused on the guitar playing, like I expected to be the case. For example, even David Gilmour, when playing his epic Comfortably Numb second solo, just stands there like an ironing board. Taj has such a great fan base and so passionate about him because HE IS so passionate AND is ONE WITH the music / guitar. These are things that are innate and cannot be faked or taught, and both of these things are not true regarding even at least half of the guitarists you named or could name.

This gave me chills at the talent this young man has. I'm a Pink Floyd fan and now I'm a Taj fan. Wow... Blown away.

The way this kid shreds really puts a lot of emotion into what he’s playing

[@dduaneb]

You're better with every video. Great how you keep pushing yourself to improve. You have bypassed many seasoned guitarists. Great job!

Wow! Wow! Wow. Over the years I have listened to a lot of up and coming young guitarist. I have heard them tackle the great performances of those whom they are copying. In the words of a very good guitarist friend of mine "The road is always easy if it has been built for you." Instead of a note for note copy, which is what I expected, I had the pleasure of hearing this. An incredible take on one of the most icionic rock performances of all time. The passion, emotion and originality of this sets you firmly apart form the rest of the best young man. Keep it coming. Keep sharing your soul with us. Carlos Santana must have been in awe to have met you. You have his gift.

Sherry's husband Rangoon here. I've seen AussieFloyd, Clapton 15 times, Gary Clark at 19 yrs old in Austin and later and others but this kid woke me up on this piece. I like minimal Playing and this isn't that, BUTT HIS "fills" add to the song. I liked the change. I saw someone Hope's this kid can mature and stay out of trouble. amen. Keep growing Taj.

I first discovered you when you played this same song blindfolded back in September 2018. I thought “Well, just another dog doing tricks” (no disrespect), but I was absolutely blown away by your guitar skills and especially the feeling you play it with. Already a very, very accomplished player then, but by now you have taken your level way up higher. Where does your development end? I enjoyed following you closely the past 18 months or so and will keep on doing so throughout your career, curious to find out where your musical journey will take you. Thanks for the beautiful rendition of this classic song. Thanks for being awesome and keep on rocking, little big man. 🎶👊🏼🎸👑🎵

Ha ha, "“Well, just another dog doing tricks” ? That is harsh... you have to grow.
