i really enjoy your playing, tim, however, i don't like much the sound of the metallic strings, but still congratulations for your performance. ps: i fell in love with your improvisation
ya blown away again Tim,,,its been a while and I see that youve got soo awsome ,,maybe I just missed subscribing ,but im glad that i stumble on ya again ,,,Im a true fan now brother,,,are you ever in Vancouver BC ?? ill be first in line ,,,peace man ,,
At last, someone who has a real sense of rhythm and actually plays the rhythm Morel wrote (as opposed to what he himself plays)!! This has to be the best version of the piece I've yet heard on YouTube - far better than the man himself. David Russell also plays it very well but even he rushes a little. Everyone should hear your version, Tim!
Hi Tim, thanks for this. I'm just about to start learning this piece and it really helps to see the positions clearly. Great playing, too, by the way - I love the combination of your flatpicking style with the Brazilian. It works beautifully!
That was SOOOO GOOOD! you song was son nice and when you broke into the solo! Your technique is beautiful. And the way you went from scale to scale with those little passing notes was just breath taking!! Have not been inspired like that in a long time..
That was lovely! I'm heading down to the guitar gallery (from Memphis) in a few weeks to hopefully bond with a Charis. Your playing really inspires me to constantly further my fretboard knowledge and technical skill. If you ever come to Memphis I'll be in the front row.
Tim , I was lucky enough to catch a clinic that you did in Tampa. I bought several of your CD'S. I hope after many hours of listening that I can pick a few of licks. Please post more of your songs. One note samba would be very cool.
Now that is playing!! Thanks for sharing this. Lov it especially on that beautiful Batson Guitar.

Taken back by the improvisation. Doesn't match the Brazilian style at all.
And not anything the composer wrote. But it was good playin'

I didn't know which to be most amazed by .. the player or the instrument.
Figured it out tho. Amazed by the instrument - in awe of the player.
