  • I heard a little windy and warm insperation in there Adam!

  • This man plays from the soul, sooo beautiful!!

  • Just gorgeous playing Adam... I noticed a couple of basses hanging back there would be great to hear you playing bass for a change?? Just out of curiosity!

  • @lazzer7 Oh man, it was not my house. Please check the new version I've posted of this one...much better sound!

  • Wow. Playing is so natural for this guy. That must feel great. When I play it feels like some kind-of alien struggle; almost painful. Yeah, I get the sound issue on this version, but still love it.

  • A Lot of feelings can be heard in this one.... F....ng awesome!

  • Everything you do AWESOME !!!! Wow. I want to play guitar like you.

  • @wayne43L I may re-record this, the built in ZOOM mics suck compared to the RODE NT5's!!!! Thanks very much, in any case :-)

  • @crescentridge please re-record this , its level is so low I strain to here all that you put into it. I have been a fan of your music for as long as I can remember logging into youtube, I really hope you make it down to FL or GA or even AL sometime, I will make every effort to come see you. Money was just too tight for me to make it to NC this year.

  • @deathclamp I will totally re-record this one....standby!!!

  • @crescentridge Is this guy great or what....TY so much....

  • awsome!

    tabsss naooooooww!

    anyone? =[

  • yeah~

  • Way to feel the mood :) Amazing.

    

  • Awesome!! What about Me & Mrs. Jones or Bach's Prelude Cello Suite #1?

  • do you have a little lamb? its either this or some tommy emmanuel thing, i can't tlel for sure:) Great job man, im about to break down the jackson one.

  • do you have a little lamb?

  • Wow, look how many losers took the time to respond to my rhetorical comment. And they seem shocked that I wasn't responding. I wonder why? Could it be that I have a life, a real job and other more important issues to tend to? To all of those individuals who felt the urge to spew nonsense at my legitimate post, please do the world a favor: shoot yourselves. Oh, and feel free to respond to this post, too, morons! I'll be sure to respond in another 3 months or so. Have a nice day.

  • ITS WOOGIE FROM THERES SOMETHING ABOUT MARY!!!!

  • Adam, please, can you do any song of Incognito? I think they are perfect for your stile.

    Congratulation for your work.

  • ur music to me is just insperational do you ever do gigs n stuff just on on your own up on a stage? if so i would like to see some live vids. :)

  • weres the 11th star for the pants?

  • Found you for the first time tonight.......................­.....WOW!

    Seriously, I think the superstition cover is one of the best things, I have ever seen on the web................Bloody effortless!

    Keep them coming.

    I think your passion comes through on these more than many other talented artists - that's the difference.

    AJ.

  • I remember hearing this on Fresh Prince

  • Breathtaking...seriously. Now I can sleep well. : > )

    (Also, I am loving seeing you enjoy the music too--groove on man)

  • Dear Adam, I should think that greats like Bill Withers and Stevie Wonder would be extremely touched by your brilliant arrangements of their work. You are clearly showing great love for other composers by taking the time, energy & hard work to play their tunes in such an impressive way.

  • @HunterMann Aw, thanks!!!

  • Gret job Adam

  • One word..........SICK!!

  • This guy plays with the effin' heart!!!

  • beat boxin was dope

  • i LOVE the room!!!!!its so nice!

  • i LOVE the room!!!!!

  • I disagree with on the room acoustics jesseroggaa. I think this old room has a natural reverb in it from the acoustics. Have you ever played in an old building before?

  • Im digging those pants Adam!

  • @cobell007 Hey give me a break. I am just covering myself in case of copyright problems.

  • @crescentridge dont listen to him adam, that ridiculous. Its perfectly understandable. Keep being incredible.

  • @crescentridge dont listen to him adam, that ridiculous. Its perfectly understandable. Keep being incredible.

  • don't be such a dick, cobell007.

  • @crescentridge Me not beeing a huge baller in the game of entertainment.. what culd the copyright problems be? As far as i know you are free to cover any tune you like? Love your vids- keep the notes flowing

  • @fejeren81 some fingerstyle guys channels have been shut down due to covers...it's all retarded...fepends on which tunes / artists you cover. It's a crap shoot....no pun intended :-)

  • @crescentridge They closed fretkiller's channel coz of copyright issues. The youtube fingerstyle/acoustic community misses him. We don't want to have to say goodbye to Adam as well!

  • @Sindagon2 Well - I think things are changing....as a rule of course - I'll be adding more originals and less covers in the future. YT is trying to do ad overlays and make money on people's infringements rather than simply shut them off. I heard that Sungha Jung has lots of warnings - but he's so popular that they want to cash in on it....by the way I just uploaded a Bach prelude and got a copyright warning. Crazy!

  • @crescentridge I hope that things actually do change. If they do all is well and good but some damage has been done and i don't think they're gonna try repair it. In a way, you don't actually blame them for wanting to cash in on all of this, not saying its right or anything, quite the contrary, but you sort of expect them to have that money-making mentality. PS your arrangements are insane!! I love the style, the groove, the technique, the emotion. Bravo man! Bravo!

  • @Sindagon2 I espescially love Fly me to the Moon! Your cover's got so much groove I was clapping at the screen at the end!!

  • @fejeren81 They closed fretkiller's channel coz of copyright issues. The youtube fingerstyle/acoustic community misses him. We don't want to have to say goodbye to Adam as well!

  • @cobell007 .....jealously is a terrible thing. SWEET track Adam. 

  • @cobell007 | Yo Dufus. There's a little red flag on the bottom. Click that and the magical large obnoxious box disappears!

  • @cobell007 Why are you not listening :)

  • @cobell007 if you are watching him.. then you are listening to him... if you are not watching him... then you are HEARING him... and if you're not hearing him... sumthin's wrong with you. Mr. C... I am in awe... the most beautiful cover of this amazing song I have ever heard. Thank you for sharing your passion with us. I am agreeing with Hunter.. brilliant!

  • @cobell007 Sounds like someone's jealous :)

  • im loving the soul you give it :)

  • I am not a guitar player or an expert, but I kind of like the sound and image to this video. I think the pants are pajamas? :)

  • love it...fan of yours

  • Beautiful

  • Yeah! No one get more love, feeling and groove like you Adam! great work!!

  • I have so many songs I want to request for you to do...but I'ma resist that needy fan urge and just enjoy each thing you choose to do in your own time...superb work Adam.

  • Yeah!!

    This is the best youtube version!! The other guys never has so much groove and feeling like Adam!

    You can hearing the love at the music!

    MarioOo

  • This guy is sick!!! He can play lead, rythm, beatbox and drums all at the same time!!!!Amazing...he makes it look so easy!

  • PLEASE do a lesson on this!!!!!???????????

  • Oh man oh man, i bought my first guitar yesterday this is just the kind of stuff i wanna learn, you are a true inspiration amazing amazing stuff!!!!

  • so much soul

  • tabs?

  • Badass!!

  • I couldn't figure out what it is in your playing, that I like so much. This piece kinda cleared it out for me.  It's got to be the timing. Great work.

  • Wonderfoul job...It's possible a tutorial? Thank

  • did u improvise all this stuff?

  • Is that your apartment? Cause I think it looks really cool. Also, this is my favourite arrangement of the song.

  • Absolutely brilliant!! Do you have a website where we can buy this msic of yours?

  • merci Monsieur!!

  • you are so wonderful

  • Are you using just standard tunings when you create this stuff or do you come up with your own unique style of tuning to be the job done. Either way, amazing job on all of your videos. Keep it up!

  • I"M A FAN!

  • awesome...like your other stuff

  • wonderful man....keep it up...a definite inspiration to all fingerstyle guitarist!!!

  • I have to tell you something...

    I just put my guitar to the bin...

    RESPECT

  • you even beatbox a little....really amazing oh and how long have you been playing for?

  • You're the Dog's Bollocks...come and play in London,plenty of clubs!

  • amazing 5 stars rated!

  • fantasticoco!

  • it gave me chills..nice

  • I have a Cole Clark Fat Lady FL2A :D

  • now thats some love and respect for the different styles of music.beautiful guiar work and perfect add on with the beatbox

  • great

  • Very nice playing! But I still doubt about the trousers;)

    ps: What would you choose if there would be a choice between Maton or Cole Clark?

  • Choose the one you prefer in stead of asking someone. I have a Cole Clark and I am VERY happy with it. But I know people with a Maton, and they are happy with it too. Just go to a guitar store and try some guitars. Then choose the guitar you like best.

  • excellent feeling

  • super!

  • really good

  • merci Monsieur!

  • Props man, your really great. I dig your style, and the guitar your using hear sounds nice. Couldn't hear real well, but I think it's the room... Oh well, still loved it. Subscribed!

  • The reverb is up so loud I can't hear the actual music that well!!! I like what I can make out though.

  • This guy is unbelievable. I can't believe he can make his own arrangements of these things. This is the guy that jwcfree gets his stuff from.

    I don't like the acoustics of the room he's in in this video though. It affects the sound quality. Amazing guitarist though.

  • Thanks! The sound on this video and "Little Fingers" was an experiment - the ZOOM H4 built in mics. You'll hear the other vids sound better with real condensers! Thank you.

  • Very nice arrangement. What do you use for your reverb?

  • This is Garage Band Reverb. I will likely do this tune again with better sound :-)

  • It's actually the CRAP built in mics of the zoom h4. I will re do this tune with better sound - check the other vidfs, you'll hear the difference.

  • @crescentridge is that true that adam writes these arangements and that jwcfree gets his stuff from him?

  • @crescentridge I keep coming back hoping there is another version with another angle of this... i cannot get the high parts figured out.. Its soooo annoying.. haahahaha.. I love it though and can't get enough. WIsh I knew you were in OHIO this week. I have to work and cannot come down to Columbus from CLE with this short of notice.

  • @JOHNNYSWL Hey thanks! A new version of this will come, I hate the sound & image here. Standby!

  • @crescentridge as long as the Jammy pants remain. They seem to be a favorite of everyone!!!! Can't hate!!!

  • @jesseroggaa Sungha figures the stuff out by himself!!! - Adam

  • @crescentridge this was brilliant. the link to the tabs don't come up thought would youfix it please thanks

  • I'm still lookin for the words to describe it....

  • Truly beautiful. Just as someone had commented earlier, I love how you play, how you pour your emotions into your playing. It makes a insurmountable difference and I can feel the music. You're really inspiring.

  • I love this song.

    Thank you!!

  • love it !!!! thanks

  • il n'y a pas de commentaire a faire cela s'ecoute tout simplement et on se laisse porter part la melodie et vous entendrer le charme d'un musicien avec son intrument

    je ne peu rien dire d' autre que le mot magnifique

  • I like this. Favorited!

  • Love it mr rafferty...in your pj's?? lol

  • haha yeah i spotted the funky leg wear too :P

    anyway thnx for posting Adam great rendition as always ......

    Max

  • Bloody brilliant I like how you show your emotion when playing, some people just show a blank face. Anyways, amazing.

  • From what I heard it was way awesome, but if it was louder I'd totally be blown away.

  • I thought this was a place to comment on the video at hand. Not to bash other commenters. If you want to argue then go to their page. Don't leave this trash on a truly great guitar player. Sounds awesome adam.

  • Guitar648...yeah...I know he's inside the house. Hence the sarcasm in my previous post. So now YOU need to go drown yourself in YOUR bathtub as well. Bunch of dumbasses around here.

  • syncopater999....uhhh...really­? You think a guy with this level of playing is hanging his acoustic axe outside? As though he isn't aware of the effects of humidity on a wood instrument. Wow. You need to walk yourself into your bathroom, fill your tub with water, and drown yourself. Right now. That way your stupidity doesn't have the oppotunity to propogate and ruin the gene pool.

  • jesus!!!

  • well aint no sunshine when shes gone is there in ur solo dude....n congrats for that, cuz its awesum....but wat i dun understan is y did u use windy and warm?? its there. n ways good playin...cheers!!

  • i know i know i know i know i know i know i know i know i know i know i know i know i know i know i know i know i know i know i know i know i know i know....

  • Awesome. As someone who's just picked up a guitar, its great to watch, cos the style appeals to me a lot. Great rhythm!

  • i'm diggin the pants, and the eerily haunting reverb. More so the pants.

  • @Saydang Casual FTW!

  • I hope that guitar is not hanging on an outside wall or it will be ruined by changes in temperature though that may depend on where you live and the variation in temperatures. I like the jazzy runs in this - very interesting take on this tune.

  • something tells me this guy knows what he's doing with guitars

  • This dude is amazing, pure and simple.

  • Loving the beatboxing haha - inspirational <3

  • PUBLISH THIS SONG LIVE!

  • Damn!

  • Amazing... Im waiting for you to come to Chicago

  • U need to make a CD.

  • He does havea CD check his site! :)

  • I hate him and so does my green eyed monster

  • I heard your version of Superstition on Sirius Satalite's Coffee House channel and deciced to see if you had any stuff on Youtube. You are an amazing guitarist. Keep the good videos coming. I am sure to subscribe.

  • soooo awesome!! you play with such SOUL!

    check out my composition, I would really like some feedback :)

    Keep at it!!

  • Pure awesomenesssss

  • technicly not the best giutarist in the world, but he is without a doubt my favorite.

  • Hi i would love to learn that slap-ing technique and the plucking i think it makes for an awesome mood

  • this makes me want to sell my guitar on ebay :(

  • How much? :-)

  • thank you for your words of encouragement :|

  • I feel like just handing mine over to someone simply passing by.

  • Makes me want to practice even harder ;)

  • Comment removed

  • simplemente maravillosa tu version

  • I let myself to quote one comment here: "did it occur to you that you could be one of the best guitarists in the world?"

    Did it!?

    So true...

  • again soooooo amazin

  • First of all, every single you've posted on youtube is nothing short of first class!!

    Regarding this video, well, the audio actually, don't know if that reverb is naturally coming from the room you are in(i doubt it slightly), and neither do i know if the effect is intentional, but maybe a roll of the verb HF would have given this a bit more presence and clarity!

    Otherwise as i said, first class to the very last note!

    All the best.

  • THanks. This one & little fingers were a new experiment in the sound & recording technique. Basically I used a zoom H4 but the mics were not meaty enough...check out the new America vid and you'll hear better sound. Yes the verb HF is a bit high. Thanks for commenting and listening!!!!

  • did it occur to you that you could be one of the best guitarists in the world?

  • ain't no sunhsine Whe-en she's gonee!!!!

    love the song!

  • loved it especially the shout out to windy and warm. I did however think it could have kept it's delicateness and had the volume on the full project boosted a bit.

  • Yep, this was an experiment with the ZOOM H4....the tone is better on the new vids...

  • you are the best !!! :)

  • man u are inspiration, much respect.

  • What a joy it must be just to be able to entertain yourself with such masterful playing ability.

  • woooooooooooooooow.......weeee­lll done

  • Nice and warm sound... I like it!!

  • damn dude....God bless. and keep posting shit cause its TOP CHOP!!!

  • have you got a cd i can buy

  • You are the closest to Martin Tallstrom (pinofluvius) for distinctive feel and touch that I have yet heard. Maybe it is the reverb to some extent but I think it is more the rhythm and lightness of touch and the way you play with such feeling

  • Martin and Tommy E are my faves, thanks for even mentioning him in the same sentence!!!
