Brilliant Mike and such an underrated song/tune.

[imotuba]

Hey Bravo "Tsada" >>> how i'd wish i could play that way.

[gravics]

That was beautiful. Masterful and musical.

Thanks for presenting such a great performance of this song.

[Janehackett1]

Stunning. Just how it should be played accoustically. Sound is great. Technique is enviable!

[legnahcra23]

good stuff! one of the best ive ever heard! wish i could play like that..teach me please!

[RevoFoto]

I stood up and clapped at the end!!!

This arrangement it superbulous! The acoustics of the room and the fact that you are playing a wonderful Taylor guitar added to the overall sound quality of this video. The song sounded great even on my iPhone w the volume maxed out!

[lintaiho]

Mike, Does it really need to take 38 years to play as well as you are? Keith

[mnelson56]

@lintaiho,

God, I hope not!

Cheers, Mike

[mnelson56]

@lintaiho,

God, I hope not!

Cheers, Mike

[tlbjchipman]

@lintaiho beautiful!

[BallisticMonkey]

I love this rendition of the song.

Just wish I could play like this!!

[readyeddy101]

Awesome. Larry & Lance Hoppen & John Hall should be proud of this instrumental cover. One of my fav bands and songs 5 easy stars

[andrewfernz]

Cool

[stefharder]

beautiful.

[bonkj]

Wow! You earn the award for the best arrangement ever! This surpasses Earl Kluge and Jose F. I like the way you mixed the actual arrangement with the fingerstyle arrangement...a bit different that the original but the best I've heard out of the +50 here on YouTube. All I can say is...Can I buy the Tab?

[dltacy]

Dude! That Was Awesome!!

[samsondlf]

I've been trying to play this all night then watched uour video. It's actually better than the original. Brilliant!

[kenmtb]

Amazing! Beautiful playing.

[langtuh3t]

Very beautiful

[LAPUbutsekikMAG]

Beautifully Arranged and Played. Clear Sounding Steel Strings. I wish you can share the arrangement in SHEETMUSIC Classical Guitar for a GENEROUS DONATION, if you have it. I will SAVE the time for figuring it out

of this video.

Thank You for the Inspiration Sir.

[killers8113]

nice playing ^^ awsome uhmm i wonder if i could get the tabs?

[FingersPlainview]

That was inspiring! Great Job man! I love this tune...bring's me back! Thank's!

[praise20088888888]

sir, are you in standard tuning?

[mnelson56]

The 6th string is tuned down a whole step to D.

[praise20088888888]

thx sir, that's what i suspect, drop d or stephen stills tuning in suite judy blue eyes.....more power

[mnelson56]

I've been playing 38 years. I've studied classical guitar with Celin Romero (check out The Romeros on You Tube) and I earned a Bachelor of Music degree in Jazz Performance. The study of arranging and composition that you get with college study really pays you back in helping to create interesting guitar arrangements, and classical study hones your fingerstyle chops and interpretive skills.

[mathiasjohnson]

Pretty damn amazing.

How long have you played to be this good?

[adr1701]

Yes, VERY nicely done!

[eliasamiouni]

WOW!!!!!Nothing else to add.

[dbschick]

Hi Mike,

I took a class of yours at ngw two summers ago in la. I really enjoyed this arrangement. Hope that all is well,

David

[mnelson56]

Hey David, great to hear from you. Take care, Mike

[ChanDaMan11]

HOLY CRAP!!! I love the original song and never thought it could be topped, but this amazingly fantastic arrangement has proved me wrong. One of the best videos I've ever seen!

[Fanfardon]

Great show old boy! Bravo to you! My hat goes off!

[direkgeri]

Very nicely done!

[tegid699]

Great SOUND, I was looking for the track to practice my bass, I enjoyed jamming with you thanks!

[SIMMA0610]

NICENICENICENICENICE!!

[rickguitar50]

I can't dance

[oniepot]

nice, just real nice...

[madjack1950]

what a song... nicely played too!

[Hemmerrr]

wat is dit mooi.......

[actionwood1]

Very nice!! I particularly like the two ways you played the beginning melody. Sort of your own take the first time around and then switching to the fifth fret for a "more correct" counterpoint. Excellent rendition.

[silencer017]

FANTASTIC! i love this song! do you have a tab please? :D

[pbl1]

excellent!

[TiredOfjwHypocrites]

That is beautiful.

Nicely done.

[rollinjukebox]

Absolutely beautiful!!! I'm sitting here mesmerized by your fingering style. I've never seen anything quite like it. Fantastic.

[towhook]

Flawless Fluid Beautiful.

[goffalkiwi]

great job man

[Bulldog225]

I've always loved this song. It reminds me of alot of time spent in the central Cal sierras 4wheeling,camping,fun with my friends in the 70's and it just makes me feel happy.. this song does. It would be nice to go back in time. but sadly we can't. Thank you so much. You play so beautifully.. good memories. peace

[jadeandviper]

god! you're excellent! i wish when i grow up, i'll be as good as you... i love music so much..and when i heard you play,... i felt so happy...

[thefrankosandiego]

Bravissimo!

[Roadi06]

WOW! This is OUTSTANDING! You play very well. I'm beginning banjo lessons soon. I hope I can pick as well as you play! You brought many memories.

[GreenMetalGod]

Dude - 100% AMAZING - Have you got a tab for thie piece?

[mnelson56]

Hey GMG- thanks! I'm working on a TAB- Mike

[hatkid15]

What a beautiful rendition, literally brought tears to my eyes. You are very talented, thank you for sharing.

[undisputedako]

Wow that was very good.... Awesome!

[jeepntj]

absolutely excellent

[Bio4ce1]

Very nice! Love the tone of that guitar. Are you plugged into an amp or is that a pure acoustic?

[mnelson56]

Thank you. Loved the Bass video, by the way. The Taylor 612-C is going through a PA system set up on the other side of the room. The reverb is an old Boss RV-70.

[4beatlefans]

Congratulations on a truly excellent interpretation, and good to hear a fine use of dynamics as well.

[fieldboss48]

very impressive!

How about playing Mason Williams, Classical Gas?

[manixdvo]

[BrokenArrow1967]
