Quite agree with all the comments - he is bloody good - I have great memories of a night a few years ago with about 10 of us in a village pub in Langton Herring when Robbie and a friend just played two acoustic guitars and entertained us all.
Wow. Makes poor old Slow-hand alias God look a bit pedestrian and comfortably numb in the old digit-feeling department, doesn't he! The one big thing Eric always had going for him though was impeccable taste in choosing songs (including this one). His guitar-playing? Well, this bloke clearly shows how much more you can get from the instrument.
Love, love, love Robbie. The Pretenders WooHoo. He is such a talented man. Watching him play with John Mayer on the last two tours has been an honor.
Robbie....I was hooked the first time I heard the opening notes to his solo for "Middle Of The Road" back in Dec. '83, then I got to see him on his last Preteners tour in March '87 in Seattle. It just confirmed what I knew since Dec. '83 - he's one of the best around. He's inspired me like Jeff Beck has.
Jolly nice Music! Jolly Nice fellow too! I had the pleasure of seeing him play quite a few times when I lived Dorset! Well Done ! muchloveflipper82axx
Absolutely beautiful playing.

I swear, there must be people who don't even watch the videos on Youtube. They just go around voting down every video they can find.

Hey Rab!
I wish to bear your children for you! ( that'll be after I cut-off my left hand and bury it along with my guitar... ;) )

@layzsailor that's exactly like saying "yes, but it's just a piece of wood and six strings"

@clobosgarcia
Hi Robbie can make any piece of wood with six strins sound fantastic
My point was it is not what you play it is how you play it with passion committment
and feeling a rare ability in many guitar players who i assume you are one of
