I have to admit - I was very much a Roberto Kelly believer and didn't think much of Bernie when he came up, but he blossomed into a truly great player as Kelly sadly faded.
BER-nie (a.k.a 'Bernabé'...LOL!) WILLIAMS!!! BERN, baby, BERN! He's pretty nice on the guitar. Not traditionally my type of music, but its Bernie's music--so it's GOOD music. The great #51, man... Speaking of which, when will they officially retire the man's number? (51). It's really 'bout time. I'm not even sure if the number is active right now. Is someone in the Bombers organization wearing it currently?
Not an easy chord progression to play....sorta backwardz pickin...I found it tough at first anywayz...Awesome job an yes guyz this iz Bernie really playin, he'z got his own style an afta listenin to him for awhile u can tell. Had a brief pleasure of meetin him at Ultra 88 Night Club in the Mohegan Sun Casino on 4/24/10...very humble an pleasant, layed back an mellow. Keep jammin Bernie u def have anotha god givin gift to enjoy and entertain us with!!! Peace
who woulda ever thought bernie freakin williams plays guitar.. and actually owns at it!! good for him for doing something constructive after his career
@SnyderRacing21 Actually, even when he played he played guitar in the clubhouse and Paul O'neill played drums. There was even a commercial they did on MSG where they were playing in the clubhouse.
Bernie's brother Hiram plays cello on this song.

I can hear the vocal in the background in my mind, but am entranced with these singing instruments, esp. the guitar.

Great ballplayer, fine guitarist, classy guy from what we saw as Yankee fans.

Not a good guitarist at all, a phenomenal guitarist. Sounds like something really inspired him on this rendition.

I've heard announcers talk about how good he was at guitar, and i thought he's probably allright. Blew me away

I saw Bernie hit two home runs on his birthday vs. Tampa Bay at the stadium in 2003. You spelled his last name wrong.
