The mark of a great musician is not the ability to play faster and hotter than anybody else, but to play a slow sweet melody with all the love and patience of God. That's Tommy.
even if he repeated that same chord progression for 2 hours I would still be listening in such aspiration and amazement at the beauty of his playing..... just mind blowing... Tommy emmanuel is no doubt the best guitarist playing in this era.
I saw him in concert last year and he was amazing. I didn't you could do the things he did with a guitar. He visits my city a couple time a year...can't wait for him to come back. What a gift he has with that guitar. Thanks for posting this.
You're right, Mr. Emmanuel. Billy Joel is one of the best songwriters on the planet. And you are the best guitarist on the planet. Hearing you play one of my favorite songs is a musical dream come true. Thank you both very much.
You've said it all. He is the master in every aspect of playing the guitar. It takes a special person to be able to convey this emotion. Still love my Pat Metheny though.
This is fantastic, and he's an amazing guitarist. I love the flamenco style and the close match to the original, which is what makes a cover/remix truly great. But it's just not the same without the haunting vocals...
dislike? put headphones on , close your eyes, and just listen. its classic te.makes you feel good. God bless te.

Powerful simplicity. That's what this song is all about and Tommy nails it! So much emotion. Perfect!

I met him two days ago. I've lived for 9,643 days, but meeting Tommy was without a doubt the greatest day of my life... Plus he signed my Maton :)
He did this song for the encore.
Tommy + Billy... what a combination. Will never forget it.

I love Billy Joel's version...
...but now I don't like his version as much.
I now have a new favorite version of his tune. Simply beautiful Mr. Emmanuel

Gee, too bad he's shy and just plows from one song into another without any rambling banter.
Otherwise, fucking brilliant.

Absolutely beautiful. I find that this song evokes the memory of seeing this virtuoso in concert, more so than any other song.
