He is is the embodiment of awesomeness itself. There is nothing, I repeat, NOTHING in the whole fucking universe that comes even close to reproducing such godliness. I would chew my legs off if that would make my even 0,00000000000000000000000001% as skilled, wise, powerful, awesome, amazing (and the list goes on to infinity)... as Tommy is. I can only hope, through unimaginable dedication and effort, that I can one day play a single song alongside him.
This man does not get enough credit. He is an extraordinary guitarist with godlike skills. I bet there arent many people raising their hands if I asked about Tommy Emmanuel, sadly.
That was so good just the way it should be played I like the way he makes that guitar do what he wants it to do. This is the first time Iv heard him and known about him , He really should have a guitar made in his name
For the dislikers: if you don't like fast and/or virtuosic playing, he does some really beautiful slower pieces too! Unfortunately it's still virtuosic. For those who think they have seen a better, more versatile guitar player, please tell us all who it is!
looking forward for his concert in Croatia , Split .....with Vlatko Stefanovski,Stochelo Rosenberg, and one and onliy Tommy Emmanuel..../watch?v=YEJWrfZ4R2Y
If you liked this performance, you should him play this song 'at tempo', search for "The Original Video Tommy Emmaneul Guitar Boogie & Stevie's Blues July 2006".
...without a doubt the best guitarist ever...he has it all...feeling..timing...rythym..and above all a true love and total enjoyment for his art...no other player even gets close to this man.
i have a 1964 maton i believe it was the only model made , bill may decided to make a similar model with more pearl inlay, but i cant get anywhere need tommy . should i give up playing now or what ?
I am thinking there are 324 people who either have no ability to discern talent, or they are just jealous over their inability to play like this! How can you not appreciate his talent, even if it isn't your style??
Hitler,Justin Beiber and Tommy Emmanuel is going to hell. The Devil is sitting on his throne and looks to Hitler. Why are you here. I killed 20 million people and cased the holocast for the jewish people. Very good, says the devil. You can sit on my right side. Why are you here Justin. I poisend the mucis world with my faggy voice. Very nice you can sit on my left side. The Devil looks to Tommy. Why are you here. Tommy says. Get the hell of my throne bitch.
tommy and wesley r guitar brothers.tommy told me wesleys new cd papa,s Ax is some hot picking he loved it.go watch wesleycrider play the jerry buster.
Ok ummm this guy sucks. Stevie Ray Vaughn would make "tommy" his bitch. I HATE this asshole's music. He sucks. I hope some aboriginal fucks this guy in the ass!! Hah!!
wow great one, well it's still a long long long long way for my skillst to get to this level.... ok probably i will never get to this :).... just close ;)
its been like 5 years now since i started learning guitar. the first song i learned was dust in the wind. i really love guitar picking songs. Everytime i watch tommy's videos, it makes me look like a complete noob when it comes to playing guitar. T_T
I wish i could have many people to check my covers,Id like different opinions,I want from you guys just to spread my channel and my covers a bit . just by seeing 'em it would be enough for me. I need your help,I started this thing 1 year ago to keep improving my guitar skills and to see if i worth a bit playing those stuff,and till now few people have seen those
I want just a simple thing from you , i wont say a thumbs up but if thats the way of helping me id really appreciate it . ! Thank you
@1977BanditTransAM according to my calculations, he had a tempo of roughly 235 bpm, which equals 3,92 p/s, let's assume he continuously taps the foot until the outro at 3:17, gives us a duration of 194,28 seconds. Which means he tapped the foot 760 times (roughly) Let's say the average distance his foot travels on every tap is 5cm, his leg actually walked 38 meters, or 124 ft.
My jaw dropped at the 0:50 decending , and then stayed there . Good Lord man , couldnt you have left the rest of us a little talent to share among ourselves. ?
@klksplsor ok, when are you going to let the chuck norris jokes go? The only people who think they're even remotely funny are the people who post them.
Wow my goodness. That run starting at 0:50 is just so much out of reach. 98% of all guitarists in this world I bet would at least struggle to keep that tempo going. Tommy plays it as if he had a built in metronome.
