Chet's Ramble | Tommy Emmanuel

When Tommy Emmanuel and Chet Atkins wrote and arranged an album together, they would trade tapes from America to Australia. Some songs got finished, and some did not. Chet wrote a melody and sent it to Tommy. A year after Chet's passing, Tommy finished the song in his honor. This song appears on Tommy's album, 'Endless Road'.

" and a few hours later..." you are a hero

[@raysaade]

Indeed

[@Sixstringman]

Hes being modest. It wasnt over 2 hours.

[@markterrell3594]

To the 18 people that gave this a thumbs down, you don't know anything about music! Sad!

[@Anonymoose]

And it almost brought me to tears. It's so perfectly Chet, and so perfectly you, all at once. I've idolized Chet since the 60s, and he fired my need to learn fingerpicking. I spent months trying to master "Windy And Warm" in 62 / 63, and when I finally did, I understood. I suddenly knew how to fingerpick a guitar, and I've thanked him for that ever since. And this little tune, in its simplicity, brings it all back. I love it! Thanks, Tommy!

+HACKINK it was a xbox game??

[@mateodominguez9825]

"and a few hours later i had this finished"... what a talent this man has...

[@Bobma0421]

So sad that Chet could not live to hear this finished masterpiece he began...

[@jayheinz4624]

Wonderful tribute to Chet!! The melody reminds me of the children's song, I'm a little teacup 😁✨🎸 and brilliant mandolin sounding intro.✨🐦

[@TheCelticWayy]

Chet and Tommy are the great epitome of one legend passing the baton to the next. The music inspires forever. Thank you.

[@wilsonrono10]

I got chills while listening to this. Chet would be so damn proud.

[@stuarthearn9890]

+Wilson Roño Chet knew that Tommy was better than he and most all, though Tommy insists not

[@tiemanschnitzel7940]

All Tommy's songs have a 'surprise' in them.

[@carlosrangel6359]

Chet Atkins and you are my inspiration, thanks.

[@noah12314]

I am Sure Mr Chet Atkins is listening and admiring the beauty of this song. What a melody, truly amazing You are a Legend Tommy Hats Off

[@James.D]

[@miss.brun0]

4:23 His hand moves to that bar chord faster than lightning.

[@quirtdrozario9983]

A wonderful tribute to the great Chet Atkins and so masterfully played by the one and only Tommy Emmanuel.

[@theuofc]

What a wonderful story!

[@ngoccuongphu2990]

Senior fingers are so skilled! I really admire. Wish you always be healthy. Continue to delight in my passion for music.

[@kantvishi]

I'm a big fan of both of them, and was just looking through Chet Atkins video by searching his name today and this is what I found by accident... what a gift.

[@georgegrubbs2966]

A true pro makes the difficult look easy. Tommy is the reigning king of the acoustic guitar. Long live the King!

[@PeeranatThongyotee]

this song is so beautiful

[@MizzCali408]

you're amazing Tommy, love you

[@allkinds1069]

a acoustic genius keeping the old style alive, in such an amazing way as well.

[@user-vc4vj4ql1i]

i'm a huge fan of Mr Emmanuel, and his brother!

[@lawrencekedz]

This man and song are absolutely incredible !!! It is May 28th, 2016 and there are three dislikes. This much I can guarantee. Those three are not musicians, in any sense of the word.

[@SR5127CL]

Lawrence Kedz Or human beings...

[@JCFNor]

you can't show much more respect for your mentor than that! Thanks for the toe tapper. :)

[@peterjongsma2754]

Music conquers the Earth.Music is the food of Love.God Bless Tommy and Phill Emmanuel.Exquisite Ecstasy and Desire Combined

[@docpedersen7582]

Great way to honor Chet's memory. As someone who never advanced beyond being a mediocre player I would choose to honor you both as true masters. Keep playing Tommy, I'll keep listening.

[@notpopebuthope]

THANK YOU (both!)

[@JoseOrozcoGuitar]

Superb playing Tommy

[@flonomcflooneyloo7573]

I've played guitar off and on since 1968 and Tommy is one of the cleanest and most harmonic sounds I've ever heard and he's not doing it in a studio. Wonderful!

[@Shane75140]

WOW!!! This is amazing!!! I’m absorbing like a sponge about to get my first guitar. I hope I can retain and perform at least a 1/4 of what yourself, Chet, and Mark Knopfler have forgotten!

[@taraadcock1503]

Fantastic. Nobody plays Chet like Tommy and nobody plays Tommy. Love your work. Thank You.

[@lindaandmerle]

Tommy has a way of making you forget your troubles and brighten up your day. We need more Tommy Emmanuel's.

[@tobortine]

That's a really excellent song.

[@dodt14]

from the key change to the end is very nice.

[@matonguitar]

How interesting to hear a master tunesmith at work, taking a basic melody and using all the "tools at his disposal" to create something so varied, complete and enjoyable to listen to!!!

[@beliveausboys71]

a master guitarist. Chet is proud of what you did with this tune

[@musicalhartbeat]

This song always makes my day brighter no matter what is going on! Love this tune and I am sure Chet is somewhere smiling and tapping his foot! :)

[@KarlRyanErikson]

Great story, great song!

[@unetfg]

You keep Chet Atkins legacy alive kudos to you Maestro

[@greggacek1655]

Chet would be proud. You can hear the distinct style of each person even though one is long gone. Pure smiles!

[@kantvishi]

I love you sir Tommy.

[@CodyCleggMusic]

Beautiful and cheerful. great piece.

[@babs4TLove]

It's your awesome song, Tommy, but you can hear Chet all throughout...what a special, moving tribute in his honor...All the best from your devoted fan from the Jersey Shore...

[@devastatedwarrior1146]

Much love Tommy!!!! Absolutely beautiful

[@ArthurWM9]

That ending is so beautiful...

[@GevaShinar]

Thank you, Tommy.

[@enosaraujo2466]

Vc fez uma bela melodia junto com o Chet. Muito bom Tommy.

[@RealXD]

Chet Atkins would be so proud :') R.I.P June 30 2001, you will be missed May heaven bring him in

[@strings1955]

I just love the expression on his face on the modulation like "didja' see that? Pretty slick, eh?" Also I especially like just playing it in the raw with the little string buzzes and all. It is so unfair his thumb can hang that far over the neck... ;-/

[@denikoboroda]

Magnificent... nice idea of presenting the original melody first to properly enjoy the final epicness.

[@cmartyk]

Tommy is beyond legendary just wow

[@yalahamike]

Love that Tommy. Chet would have loved it to.

[@jpm1211]

That was fantastic.

[@aternst]

[@IILLIILLIILILIIILL]

Thank you tommy!! Since I was 11 years you are my idol, motivation, and goal. Now I am 18. Love playing your songs. Thank you for always playing wonderful and amazing songs!!!!!

[@carliniguitar]

I am a guitar player of 18 years. Trying to learn just the first bar of that main line of the song. It is HARD. Crazy how talented this guy is.

[@HectorJulioSanchezInda]

Señor Emmanuel: Usted es Un Genio un Gran Maestro de Música!!!. Aprendo a diario de Usted!!!. Mis Saludos desde Berazategui, Buenos Aires, Argentina!!!!!.

[@moodween7399]

I just love the look he gives at the end of the video. You see how hard he's thinking about Chet and the emotions he's holding on. The way he pays homage to him on this song is absolutely awesome. Thank you Tommy for sharing us your inspiring music and how much you are a rich man full of gratitude for the man who inspired you so much.

[@beniaminozetu3960]

[@chrisgainmusic]

[@lizwynaco2222]

Boy...that's really a great story.. nice job on completing the song.

[@douglasmcintyre3297]

Wow. Thanks for sharing that Tommy. So reminiscent of Chet. Can't wait to see you live in concert at the Vogue Theater in Vancouver on June 25th, 2017. Best guitarist I've ever seen.

[@alisaleh9102]

It was so alive, Chet is proud man

[@PeteMidg]

great, and I loved the 'look' at 3.46

[@catlerchannel6672]

It`s Amazing!

[@ОлегГусев-л2н]

That's amazing

[@RGMDG]

Thanks for sharing your talents with the world. What a great friend you were to Chet as well in the way you honor and revere him to this day.. I remember the first time I saw Chet on TV, it may have been on Hee Haw or the Grand Ole Opry. I thought "wow, can that guy play and he makes it look so easy"!! Thanks for keeping his memory alive.

[@realcygnus]

Holy moly !..........so very splendid......I cant believe my ears.......we are bare'n witness to something so beyond spectacular every time this man picks up a guitar.........its just incredible....... what Chopin did for romantic piano or what the Beatles did for modern song writing.....is like what TE does for solo instrumental acoustic guitar........simply Amazing ! THANKS

[@skinnywick1]

As I watch your face as you played this tune, I too shared the range of emotion and feelings in which you must of felt while playing it. I miss his music but in my consolation we have you and that is so special to those of us that do not have this gift. God Bless you Tommy Emmanuel!

[@pacoanto1]

[@lebagelboy]
