Holy freakin smokes batman!! Happy fingers is in the house!! I Signed up on this site specifically to leave you a comment. That shit was phenomenal Bro! I am working on this song right now, but my bling bling box anit pulling of no shit like that! Great Job, NO DOUBT!
OMG OMG OMG!!!!! i love classical gas and you my firend have taken it to a whole new level!!! I SO ENVY U RIGHT NOW~!!! wish i could play the guitar *cry* awesome job man keep it up!
Thanks for your comment, bookstar77. Bruce has actually recorded a CD, called "Color" (not all acoustic, though). If you do a search for his You Tube name, "Colorx", you will find some songs he has written and set slide shows to, plus a link to his website, where you can hear the songs from his CD.
at the first moment i've seen you i thought »damn please not another bad classical gas interpretation«. but damn, u really CAN play guitar. i like you rocky interpratation, can you play something of paganini for us?
Well done mate. Awesome interpretation. You rock. Special Brew should only be drunk mixed with Scrumpy in a 50/50 mix...enjoy... i just know you're gonna try it!
Damn you, I did intend to have a nice day learning the songs off of this new John Mayall and The Bluesbreakers DVD I got, but I saw your version of Classical Gas and now I'm going to spend the whole day doing that.
Descent playing,my only comment for noobies on the guitar,that the one and only by far best performer,and,there is on youtube, is Tommy Emmanuel....i think SweetSheep you won't dissagree ;)
Grats!Doesn't mean anything about your performance.
Gotta love your version man. I played it once, arrangement made by my teacher. But I played it like crap... mostly cuz I'm not really skilled at finger picking. Gotta love that little thing...
DAMN! this song is so hard to learn 'specially when your 13 like me ^.^ nice job who did this and thanks to the person who posted this up, really inspired me :P
The few VERY MINOR mistakes add to the 'live feel. This is still amongst the best versions I've heard. I'd struggle to play half as well as that on my ibanez electri, which compared to an acoustic is a breeze to play!
Wow! What a soulful performance; I dig the improvisation as well -- hey, Sweet, I hope he plays for you all the time! You guys inspired me to pull out my 3/4 Cordoba and do something with it; I told my son when he gave me the guitar for Mother's Day that I would be playing Classical gas by Christmas -- it looks like I'll be playing this You Tube performance for him!! WTG!
i love you, you fucken stoner. i watched your video of classical gas first and all the others just seem shit,they all look nervous and tense, your in bare feet,got your hair down fucken jammin, love it . da na na nah nah na nah na nah
It's great to ehar all these differnet versions. I loved this version, coz its not entirely TE's version nor is it like the Original. Its the player's own interpretation of the song
OMG, tell your boyfriend he has totally inspired me to play better!!! Oh and the so called mistake around 1:58 is actually a well placed, slided ghost note on the E-string, I love the improv, so bluesy.
I LOVE the passion and the dynamics! You felt this!!! (Hey Sweet Sheep... is he this good in bed??? ;) YUM!!!
I just got through watching another video of someone else playing this piece WAY too dispassionately - trying too hard to be too careful and too perfect. This one is WAAAAYYYY better! 8-D YUM!!!
ya thats real nice man, i think you should trim your hair tho because when u get to a serten age your hair will start to turn grey and i think you should give your hair a trim :p
fuckin sweet dude! jduclos really should remove his head from his ass! ever consider donating your hair to locks of love? i just did myself. anyway rock on dude!
i love it, i don't like that he added bluesy riffs to it... but damn it sounds so damn good that i'm willing to ignore that it's two different styles. amazing.
He actually learnt it by ear, listening to the original by Mason Williams. Not sure what version that makes it, but glad you like it, anyway! Thanks to everyone for all your kind comments!
I love this song, your version is sweet, gr8 skillz, im trying to learn it but very hard lol, only been playing like a year!! Anyways sweet playing man!
Can you please tab this or notate it? Best cover I've heard on YouTube by a mile! Thanks. Dan.
