@Yami02blue

I've been fortunate enough to see him live 4 years in a row in San Fransisco. If you can, by all means see him live. It is QUITE the experience!

Why can't he just do a mistake? ...Just to see, he's human ... :-/

[crossingzero]

without missing a single note. he diagnosis and resolve's the feedback issue, then pours on the soul as if to make up for it....I cant wait ti see him in feb here in st pete.

[mead5150]

I don't have the words to explain what makes this guy so special. he makes my spirit happy every time.

[666Buzzsaw]

By the sounds of all the comments you guys must not be from Australia, as an aussie I've been fortunate to first heard Tommy well over 20yrs ago, it's great to see people appreciating some of the great talent down here.

He has a brother Phil, who is a fairly well known guitarist also but Tommy is the better of the two imo.

[botleydot]

wow, I just discovered this guy and clicked on a couple of videos to check him out. It feels like I've got a whole decades hunt for fabulous music in just one guy, one guitar and spine shivering precision

[TheDudeFrom0Z]

he played angelina first which im almost done learning.. then ive always thought of you which is the one i want to learn next!

[Yami02blue]

This is gonna sound goofy, but it's from the heart so bear with me.

I understand that everyone is good at "something". All of us have a skill we were born to do. Some find it; many don't. And in some cases when you see someone who has found the their "something", it's almost like you're witnessing greatness.

Mr. Emmanuel is the finest guitar player I have ever heard. I find myself comparing other guitarists to him. Not a fair comparison, but I can't help it. I love this dude's playing.

[alanganin18]

hybrid picking? am i right?? or a thumb pick. @_@

[tedh754]

Tommy is the lord of the guitar!

the first part is SO WONDERFUL!!

can't stop listening

[j4ymes]

this is one of the best things ever - and not just on YouTube...

[dsjoakim35]

2.47 Bless you :)

[eengozer]

wow wist niet dat die kerel ooit in nederland is geweest...

prachtig.

[maybenkey]

I met Tommy when he performed in Dallas last summer. I had the unique experince of hearing my guitar played like it will never be played again and the he signed it for me. He loved my guitar because it is rare 40 year old Brazillian made rosedwood acoustic that has done nothing but omprove with age since I bought it 40 years ago. Tommy is is a ver humbling person and is not a stuck up individual. Seeing him live is an experience of a life time. To me: God's gift to tell the rest of the world.

[insaneguitarfreak]

I must have one of those Maton guitars, they are definitely the way to go. Notice these things... that guitar is pretty old, It´s been hit thousands times per year, it´s been "tortured" a thousand times when he does that whammy bar effect where he forces the neck.. and in spite of all that the tuning was perfect even when he removed the capo...

(wow that sounded like a cool rewiew.. I could work for Maton guitars lol)

Thanks very much for the upload.

[emj0001]

@insaneguitarfreak

I actually this year and believe it or not, that guitar is only 5 years old!! =)

[arturogol]

Beautiful

[kinggimped]

He could carry on doing this all day... and millions would listen.

[GetnFunky]

wat een wereld speler is het ook he, niemand beter als TE

[wdeboer0]

Virtuoos! Niet te geloven.

[starmoca]

jaja great... fucking monitor...

[scottiii]

one man wonderband

[wainerkorven]

you said it

[dsjoakim35]

What is he doing in the middle when he gets up and kicks something of the stage? Did someone fling something up there? He looks pissed :)

And as usuall, played like God would if he could play guitar... and existed.

[jojo3587]

Eternity is a long time to be wrong

[davidklausa]

A lifetime is a long time to be wrong

[Dittohead555]

looks like he fixed the feedback by kicking the monitor on the floor.

[gogokhan95]

best tommy is the great guitarist

[mozartk271]

Wow, never seen anyone D-tune half way through a medley and continue so effortlessly. Tommy is my hero, everything he plays is awesome, the true and only master of the guitar. Any style, any genre, he never fails to play beautiful music to inspire, heal and entertain.

[ROBERTtheGUITARIST]

i think jimi hendrix did once, but TE has removed a capo while playing and made it blend together

[Maarten171991]

I guess Tommy is a hero for many people, at least for me and you;) Tommy has got what it takes to be a true performer. Like they say, Tommy is like a god.

[SvenLide]

I learned about T Emmanuel just a month ago. Just got to say everything he does is just amazing. I've played guitar for over 40 years but didn't imaging you could use the guitar the way he does, Great video again!

[monev88]

so true....truly 1 of a kind.

its like a whole band, played by 1 person on 1 instrument

[Evildounut]

whats the name of that last song that he plays?

[iMaik]

The Medley contains:

1. Angelina

2 I've always thought of you

3. Those Who Wait

4. That's the Spirit

[wantsomebugs]

iloove his medleys and the way he plays it!!

greg, austria

[horanmegerski]

Wow... fantastic! Bravo!!!

[slennie]

It's 4 songs in one track... i cannot believe you found this exactly the same.

[darnops]

where can i download this song i couldn't find it on google :(

[slennie]

You can't.

[darnops]

too bad i found the song :)

[slennie]

Tommy lijkt wel niet helemaal op z'n gemak... normaal zit hij nooit zo neerslachtig erbij! Zeker iets onder de leden... het spel blijft fantastisch.

[oscarnodiaz]

It goes: Angelina, I've always thought of you, Those Who Wait, That's the Spirit.

[pbabbat]

OMG

[Dudeskates123]

Hey,

SUPERCOOL!! Was filmen tijdens het optreden toegestaan? Of heb je gewoon een camcorder naar binnen gesneakt? :P Ik ga binnenkort ook en ik wil graag opnames maken maar volgensmij is dat verboden..:P

[rhodesta]

GO TOMMY!!!! I hate it when my monitors feed back... although i cant really just kick them out of the way, i play keyboard and the buggers are too ffar away for me to kick them easily.

[goinagain]

Bruce could'nt keep up w/Tommy....NOWAY!

[wainerkorven]

So beautiful! Im glad i got tickets to see him soon. I noticed his skills as a guitarist especially while trying to play his songs. They are very well composed and they include some extremely difficult fingerstyle. I've been playing for atleast 10 years and i find it hard to stretch my hand like he does and to push the fretboard with such complicated chords. But im workin' on it :)

[asw34wefdsf]

ahhh bruce mathiske is better

[GuitarPim1989]

Wat medley, dit nummer heet angelina

[Jackiegoal]

En I've Always Thought of You en ...

[ikbeneengek666]

he played amazing again yesterday in amsterdam!!!!!

[tjitta25]

a en ik heb weer prachtige opnames gemaakt die binnenkort op YouTube zijn te bewonderen

[platenburg]

Ik was er ook!! Zet de opnamen aub. snel op Youtube??!!

[speckofdust21]

dude....

[samheb]

what did he kick? :)

[Yami02blue]

Microphone perhaps?

All I know is he kicked a 35 yard field goal with whatever it was. :)

[FlameOfAnduril]

i believe he kicked a monitor out of the way because it was making the feedback that you started to hear

[heisenbart]

Is that what it is?????? I can't stop myself either.

Just trying now to pass this new 'addiction' on to my buddies and to introduce Tommy to them so they won't miss him when he comes here in a couple of weeks.....

[Yami02blue]

This guy is so good, it's almost like his playing is unbelievable. I just found about him tonight and I'm totally blown away.

I can't imagine what it's like to see him live. If I'm this amazed by watching a video, I have no idea what my reaction would be watching him live.

I've listened to this 5 times in a row so far.

[jimnoak]

I saw him "live" last week. Now if you'll just hand me my crayons I'll try to print you my name.

It was a mind blowing experience!

[TheDudeFrom0Z]

@Yami02blue dude Ive been watching Tommy(frequently) for over a year now and im still gobsmacked.

[Yami02blue]

I've listened to this so many times over the last year that I actually have it memorized. How crazy is that?

[itsapajo]

@Yami02blue i seen him live two years ago in ireland truely amazing! and a great show man.

[jasonklapcuniak]

@Yami02blue exactly what i said when i first watched him on youtube. i found out one week later after watching "guitar boogie" by looking at his website that they were playing at a venue an hour from my house and i was instantly astounded by the idea of actually getting a chance yo see him live. i purchased the tickets, went to the show, left with my jaw locked on the ground. it was a once in a lifetime experience thats a must. i was in awe the entire concert.

[theodorehui]

@Yami02blue

5 times only?? :-D

i love to keep looping his songs when i m working~

[HelloWorldOD]

@Yami02blue You have NO IDEA. Seeing him live is 100x better than anything you could even fathom from watching the videos.

[Tomslassagain]

@Yami02blue I saw him live and he was out of this world...hard to believe anyone could be that brilliant.It took me hours and hours to come down from the concert.

[Edoss1]

What is the second song? Never heard that one before.

[ubernaffa]

It's called I've Always Thought of You from Only. Possibly my favourite song that he's ever written.

[pasha355]

this is Angelina song

[k66nyc]

incredibly beautiful performance - absolute genius.... not like Mozart though, but in guitar - he IS at the top of the list.... just my opionion

[gokukiller]

whats the name of the song that begins at 6:38 ?

thanks

[rayryeng]

6:38 he's still playing the same song, which he started at 5:43. That song is called "That's the spirit", off of his "The Mystery" album.

[Jonolsson]

whats the name of the first song?

[bajsolof]

angelina:)

[sportsguyz]

Best guitar song ever!

[phucher]

what is the third song

????

[rayryeng]

Those Who Wait

[vever]

Love his face when the feedback comes back lol !

anyway very peacefull musics !

[mattcali22]

does anyone know what he kicks??

[theriven1]

didn't you know that he always does? it is something a guitarplayer really should do if he is not the ultimative genius of beat : ) He said in a video he started that very early.

[Batman001]

Lucky,

I wish I could of started early. For me I guess the saying is true, " Once you find something you want to do for the rest of your life, its already too late. "

[jacforjc]

my friend I am using that in my next song

[TheDudeFrom0Z]

@Batman001 its never to late.
