Glad you guys liked this video - it was an absolute pleasure to hang with Kirk for a few hours. And if you think he's got chops in this video, you should have seen the clinic later that day - what a player!! Go check his music out. Cheers to Kirk for popping by. And if you want to see your favourite guitar player in a Capt Meets video, then please just badger the shit out of them on social media ;)

Cap'n'Kirk

[@41DegreesSouth]

Is it weird that a music retail shop in England is my main inspiration to get better at playing the blues? Pete, Rabea, Chappers, Captain, thank you all so very, very much!

[@bjdee1437]

Kirk is a monster, but until this interview I had no idea how approachable and cool he was. What a player.

[@pabloperez4063]

Why should he be otherwise??

[@GeorgeWoodenPhoto]

This is my first introduction to Kirk Fletcher and his music. I made a legacy of telling my children that you are never too old to learn. I have come to a point in my bucket list where it is time for me to answer my own challenge. I am taking up the guitar, while I hopefully have a few years to become proficient (starting at 73+). Blues is my sole interest, and this will be my gift to myself, for all the years I set this desire aside for family and career. I enjoy all the videos you provide to keep us abreast of all the new equipment and great artists you allow us to become acquainted with. The journey forward will be awesome.

[@christophereadgbe2976]

Nice. Hope you've started your journey and that it has been a good one so far.

[@gjh61261]

Never too later brother, enjoy the journey!

[@tifreire1]

Hope you're killing it!

[@AirsoftStriker]

How’s the playing been going?

[@forddriver8827]

Kirks humility is why he is who & where he is today. Great man with morals & principal.

[@777Yoni]

Mike Landau, Josh Smith, & Kirk Fletcher... That's a show I would fly to. Great humility and such a tasty player.

[@thomasrevill7723]

Kirk Fletcher has got the blues

[@styx85]

Happy to see that Pete got a little jam in at the end :D

[@JSmith-mu3fq]

Kirk is Hands down Thee best blues player Today! His story, his life and the way he uses all of this. No one is got this edge today. Blessed !

[@rigfish-theguitarplayersge7342]

Excellent Show. Kirk Fletcher is the man. Never disappoints. He and Josh Smith together is the show of shows. Thanks for putting this show together! Bring on the jazz/blues guitarists!

[@RenanBeltrao]

[@Superjenson]

The Captain is such a great interviewer.

[@Blues-man.]

[@MarkJohnsonJams]

[@danielgorman8725]

What a super cool guy!

[@muuhn]

it's a shame i can only give one thumbs up! it deserves over 9000!

[@notfried2004]

I have only watched one and a half minutes and I will say that this is already, by far, my favorite "The Captain Meets..." video.

[@decacrimie]

Sick guitarist and seems like a real good guy. Definitely got a new fan today.

[@guitarFlownimo]

Great Guy !!!! 👌☄

[@johnwillard6198]

Kirk is such a gracious humble man . God bless him and his music .

[@chrisofnottingham]

Late to this ; 2018. Man that intro jam *is* the blues and the rest of us are just playing at playing the blues.

[@mistral1191]

Kirk is always smiling :) He seems such a nice guy! Good job on the interview! Thank u!

[@antoinedoinelswaroop]

Kirk Fletcher is such a humble man!!! No wonder he can make his guitar sing with so much soul!!

[@rafke182]

Kirk, straight to earth guy, like your playing, hope to see you soon in belgium. Your a fantastic player and person. Big fan here

[@johnnewman8412]

Every interview I see with Kirk he's the same genuine, humble guy and that's so refreshing when so many of today's artists seem to be all about 'branding'. What a great player he is too, just beautiful tone - I love how much fun he is having just jamming around with another guitar guy. Seriously, is there anything better?

[@SalisburySimon]

That A chord style is Paul Kossoff - needed for All Right Now

[@ckjjclan]

Oh my gosh... That part he plays at the 20 min mark is jaw dropping. So good!

[@AgentSmith911]

Blues needs more recognition, in my country all the blues fans are like 65+ old.

[@jtyoung706]

This is just utter enjoyment all the way through! Reminds me I'm a musician in a good way!

[@truthforhire6125]

Kirk is seriously one of the most humble and nice dudes.

[@sharlowsgarage]

[@johnwillard6198]

I was lucky, being from Texas, I got to see Gatemouth Brown. He's a legend, but he was really nice. Kind of like Kirk Fletcher. Humble.

[@elij.doummar4623]

What a humble great guitarist. .

[@colmonic]

I'm part of their generation, just turned 42 and i can relate to what they are saying alot. Sold my les paul and prs guitars though and bought an ML3 RC. Paid for my honeymoon 😁

[@MrBossei]

Such a nice guy Kirk Fletcher! A joy to see!

[@markmathew1453]

[@periloustemple8290]

Both of you were so charming and delightful. So many great truths - and so much joy & passion. Thanks Lee! Keep it up.

[@MrAlexander1955]

Thank you so much,it's a really pleasure.One note,please open a stop on the lens in wideangle footage.

[@tomshaug]

Thank you Kirk, thank you Lee, thank you Pete, wonderful visit.

[@ShawnTubbs]

Mike Landau, Kirk Fletcher, Josh Smith...The reason I don't even bother trying to play the blues. Kirk is the man.

[@ShawnTubbs]

You're very kind Danny.

[@christophereadgbe2976]

Nonsense, you can get in there and stitch together some blues riffs and play them the way Shawn Tubbs plays them.

[@ShawnTubbs]

Thanks Christopher!

[@1telemaster]

Shawn Tubbs Umm.... You’re right there with them my friend!!!

[@ShawnTubbs]

Thanks Jim!

[@crjacobs1313]

I first became familiar with Kirk when he played with Joe Bonamassa on the Muddy Waters/Howlin Wolf shows. From there, I found more of his music. A very talented and humble guitar slinger! Nice segment, Captain!

[@prs22gt10]

What a cool guy! Surprised I missed this when it first aired. Kirk seems so humble and down to earth, a pleasure to listen to with killer skills. Thanks Captain for this interview, and by the way, thanks for all you share with us.

[@adamclark4369]

I went to the clinic, it was inspirational for playing, then the captain meets is amazing as always!! Thank you andertons!!! :))

[@BerriesAllen]

I am sad to say, I had never heard of Kirk Fletcher. After watching this glorious video, I will be rectifying that. Man, he was such a joy to watch! I love how he would get so happy while playing! Blues on! Thanks for the vid Capt and Kirk! I'm going to your site right after this to see if you're playing near me!

[@andrewelstein4852]

So humble! Playing starting around 20:20 gave me chills. Just "messing around". True master, blues player. Wow!! beautiful playing and tone! Very inspirational!!

[@yesto9676]

Super smooth!

[@jasonstone8587]

Nice to hear some soul in the blues....

[@alphakittyofficial]

Great guy and a super player. Thanks, Lee!

[@rickjason215]

He seems like a really great guy. I've seen him live. He's a great player.

[@joshhawkinsguitar]

Kirk's the man.

[@angel0494]

The Captain meets Derek Trucks... It would be amaaaazing!

[@HenkBenk88]

What a fantastic player and awsome guy!

[@TheElrondo]

One of my favorite "Captain meets..." Kirks tone is just WOW. I knew the BluesCube is the "tubiest" solid state amp out and is totally underrated, but that tone is in this masters fingers. * Lee made it to my favorite interviewer. And i watch tons of guitar channels and interviews.

[@largeeng]

Gutted I had to miss the clinic that night, was recovering from an operation.Looking forward to seeing Kirk and Josh at at least a couple of his upcoming shows.I will second his Jimmy Vaughan opinions, his solo albums are a lesson in taste, restraint and feeling. Kirk is developing along those lines and is an awesome humble guy to boot.

[@TheSpiderbridge]

He’s quickly becoming one of my favorite players. Lots of great subtle/tasteful stuff in his approach. Seems like such a kind and humble dude!

[@wizaxed]

Pete was tearing it up!! Great jam at the end!!!!

[@ElliotSmart]

Thanks for doing this Lee. He did a clinic at my university last year (Dudley Ross is my guitar tutor), saw him again in Maidstone and going to see him again at Whitstable with Josh Smith this September. Incredible Guitarist and such a nice guy.

[@gentlemandave1135]

What a class act, with great feel. Everything he plays is tasteful. Best one of these I've seen yet. Thank you.

[@drguy2156]

What a wonderful guitarist and humble human being this guy is. Really enjoyed this one captain!

[@tvlife19]

This video made me feel happy.

[@pwebbler]

What an excellent interview.

[@JB-tc8el]

great guy, back to basics, no frills, no pretention, just the music!

[@joeysmith3912]

Hes such a cool dude. Amazing touch

[@THE8-BITROAD]

thank you for introducing this great player to me.

[@Dagger_323]

Wow, great player and really down to earth guy! Excellent video, Cap'n!!

[@REALmacheight]

Just awesome

[@iamswitters]

I had never heard of Mr. Fletcher before but I really liked his playing here and he seems like a real nice guy. I gotta go pick up some of his stuff!

[@russtownsend2898]

What a player and human being .keep it up Kirk good luck in all endeavors!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Tolbiny]

The Captain meets....David Gilmour :) I can dream can't I? :)

[@sagnikpaul233]

I still dream about it.

[@juanesquivelmadrid]

You have the blues, Captain!

[@miguelabreumacedo]

I don't know if it is because of the humbuckers and solid state amp but Kirk sounded so much like B.B. King. Amazing player!

[@micuzzu]

Great guy and great musician !

[@rogerlecocq794]

A humble guy with great chops. I really enjoyed this video. Thanks so much!

[@BV_Beve]

Great video, great interview Captain and what a brilliant guy Mr Fletcher is, wish I'd been able to see the masterclass. Top stuff. And Captain get/listen to 'Whats The Word' Fabulous Thunderbirds and J Vaughan's 'Do you Get The Blues' And Mr Fletcher's My Turn album is just brilliant!!!!

[@nathanweir9975]

He makes it look so effortless & relaxed .. deff my favourite blues rhythm guitarist

[@andrewkumarmusic]

Kirk's joy is contagious!

[@ericcarpenter3263]

Kirk is jaw dropping good. Best thing about him, in my opinion, he makes the people around him better than they are. Everyone steps their game through roof being around him. Really cool, positive guy.

[@David-dm4yp]

very nice intro!!

[@David-dm4yp]

and outro hehe

[@bartoszsawicki1892]

I enjoy these videos a lot, such a good watch.

[@rickjason215]

Kirk is just terrific. Really nice guy and great player.
