  • Fabulous job, Martin. Very, very nice. I originally learnt the Davy Graham version (circa 1960), which is much simpler, but your version is about as good as it gets!

    Martin

  • Ich wage zu behaupten das ich ein guter Gitarrist bin. Aber wenn ich dich sehe kommen mir die Tränen... und gäbe es so etwas wie Neid unter Musikern, würde er mein Herz zerfressen und mir den Schlaf rauben...

    Ich geh mal davon aus, dass es zu deiner Interpretation weder Noten und schon gar keine Tabulatur gibt, falls ich mich jedoch irre, würde ich mich sehr über eine PM freuen. In jedem Fall danke für diesen wunderbaren Beitrag. Nun weiß ich wieder warum ich Gitarre spiele.

  • Vielen Dank für deinen netten Kommentar.

    Viele Grüße

    Martin

  • nice sir!!

  • Thanks for your kind comment.

    Martin

  • beautiful arrangement 

  • This really good. Cheers from Columbia SC.

  • thanks dude 

  • Where can i find this tab? GREAT VIDEO! THUMBS UP!"

  • Thanks for your kind comment.

    Martin

  • Oh man, that is superb!! I sat with my mouth agape watching you! I recall Chet said that was the most difficult arrangement he ever played, is that not true? Yet you nailed it!

    The only thing I noticed is that you altered the ending, or at least a small chord progression that Chet used leading up to the ending...you didn't include it, and my ears were waiting for it!

    I still sounded fabulous, but I wondered why you skipped that last chord progression?

  • I've learned this one many years ago and do not remember all the differences to Chet's version. I use another fingering in the first part. Thanks for watching and your kind comment. You know I love your postings.

    All the best

    Martin

  • Nice work Martin!

    

  • Thanks for your kind comment, buddy.

    Martin

    Martin

  • Very nice guitar arrangement, and of course, playing of this tune! What a pitty that audio and video are not really synchronized.

  • You are right, my recording quality is lousy. Thanks for your kind comment.

    Martin

  • bravo bravo bravo ti rubo un po di accordi complimenti davvero

  • Grazie, amico mio!

    Martin

  • Beatiful guitar! But i don't understand, is it Gibson?

  • Thanks for watching. The guitar is a Gretsch G6122-1959.

    Martin

  • One of the best interpretation i heard so far... Very sweet going !

    5*

  • really smooth and flowy. thank you very much!!!

  • Wonderful rendition. Take care and please keep them coming. All the best!

  • Thanks so much, buddy.

    Martin

  • Brilliantly played Martin. Savage guitar and sound. Super.

  • nice tune and great playing! did you learn this from music sheets?

  • Great stuff! Thats my favourite of your performances- because its just the guitar! No backing track. Wonderful picking. I've been trying to find one you videos of a Chet tune, where you do a lovely flourish from a first position chord. I've forgotten the name of the tune! Do you know which one I mean? There were lots of comments... I'd love to see it again, and learn it! Thanks, Tom.

  • Wish I could play this song like you...

  • Thanks for your kind post.

    Martin

  • Nice nice nice wonderfully smooth tone sir!

  • Outstanding!! ***** Sherrill

  • Many thanks for your kind comment.

    Martin

  • very nice indeed!

  • Thanks for your kind post.

    Martin

  • Wow. Very, very nice. Im trying to learn this finger-style in A-minor first position and its really hard - but you just took it to a whole new level.. one sadly tht i will likely never attain :-(

    Awesome job!

  • Thanks a lot, buddy. I really appreciate your watching.

    Martin

  • Martin, why aren't you out in a recording studio selling records?

  • Großes Lob an dich! Chet wäre stolz!

    Kannst du mir vielleicht die Chords geben die du von 1:07 bis 1:25 spielst??

  • Very nice job. True to the original. What's the make of the guitar?

  • Many thanks. The guitar is a Gretsch G6122-1959 Country gentleman - great guitar!

    Martin

  • SOunds great! Especially in the key of E playing it in D is a bit challenging getting a drone bass unless you drop tuned it and rearranged the chords. Smooth playing you got it. Chet style.

  • Many thanks.

    Martin

  • gorgeous! Very nicely done. Bravo!

  • Thanks for your kind comment.

    Martin

  • Sweet. Very sweet. You are a first class guitarist and that performance (of one of my jazz favorites) was outstanding. Happy New Year and thank you for allowing me to enjoy your performance.

  • Howdy Dave blubeck, LOL

  • I really appreciate your watching.

    Happy New Year!

    Martin

  • Amazing. Fluid and natural touch. Trying to learn this song drives me crazy. Watching you play it is inspirational.

  • I really appreciate your kind comment, thank you.

    Martin

    Martin

  • Hey, great video! I have an audition to do to enter in jazz school and I would like to play this song, can you tell me how you arranged it and/or where did you find the tabs? Thank you, and great music!

  • Thanks for watching and your kind comment.

    Martin

  • The best on You Tube. If you transcribe that song in tab, I will buy it. Wonderful touch and execution. My my my. It will take me a year to learn it, but what a beautiful piece of music. Thank you maestro.

  • Thanks for watching and your kind comment.

    Martin

  • Excellent is an understatement!!!

  • Man this is excellent, I was thinking of learning

  • Thanks for your kind comment.

    Martin

  • Amazing! Is there a possibility of you telling me what tuning you're playing in, and perhaps some tabs? :)

    Cheers from sweden

  • Standard tuning. Thanks for your kind comment.

    Martin

  • That, sir, is by far the best cover I've heard of Brubeck's masterpiece.

  • Thank you very much for the kind comment.

    Martin

  • Неочень(

  • wow, thats excellent work and very nice arrangement!

    And could give me the name of that wonderful guitar you are playing?

    Martin

  • Excellent. Nice sound and a beautiful guitar.

  • Thank you, Stumptownboy.

    Martin

  • You ROCKED this arrangement! Very very nice!

    I think one of the hardest things about this song is keeping locked into that 5/4 time signature. You nailed it! =)

    Martin

  • BRAVO !!!! excelente

    Martin

  • You are a very fine guitarist in Chet Atkins-style..(and of course jazz) You are playing i 5/4. And it's the real thing for "Take Five" Very nice, I think. Keep up your good work.---The best from an jazz-saxephonist from Norway!!

  • You are A very good gitarist i Chet Atkins-Style Keep up the good work. What you do if very diffecoult, and you are doin'n it well. The best from a jazz saxephonist from Norway!

  • Thank you, buddy.

    Kind regards from Germany

    Martin

  • My friend, you are an excellent player. It's not just the incredibly complex song, but your feel and emotion. I dig the muted bass line at times, the slight bend and C & W twang here and there, the gentle slide and the sharp staccato bridge. It all works so well. It inspires me. Mr. Brubeck should hear this.

  • I really appreciate your watching and the kind comment. Thanks so much.

    Martin

  • I never thought that I would hear anyone other than Chet play that on the guitar.Excellent work!!

    I could say that about a lot of tunes that you do.Thanks you.Ron G

  • I really appreciate your watching. Thanks for the kind comment.
