His skill is outta this world. But you gotta admit he kinda spoiled the song a little...I mean, I don't like jazz....Although he did add some spice into it...
I never, never tire of listening, & indeed watching this video - thank goodness for Tommy Emmanuel & You Tube - best regards - Balding Bullet (John Statham)
@metallicbass23 Both of them are correct, mate. To the knee and in the knee are both said. One is actually said by the guard whereas the other one is in the written subtitle. Happy? Also, it's fucking lame.
Ah, so speaks the pretentious who suppose to speak as though they hold the keys to the gates of class - merely for having that opinion. Martin is fine, but its like opera. He plays a few notes and then pauses through the sustain as the guitar carries him. As a guitarist myself - I'll give you a tip that Tommy knows and you don't: You play the audience - not the instrument. Mozart played in pubs. Unless you also think Mozart untalented...
I simultaneously would have liked and not liked to be the other guitarist... the former cos i get the best seat in the house and the latter because it'll make me look pathetic..
@gubepro Is that what you think? Well, you're wrong. Currently I am a music major at USC, I have played guitar since 7th grade, I played guitar in my high school jazz band for 3 years, and I've been in several bands.
Your comment you made it very clear that you do not know very much about guitar. I do not stand alone in this battle, Martin is widely considered to be the greatest finger style guitarist of all time. Tommy may do a bunch of flashy stuff to try and look cool every time he plays, but Martin offers something that no one else in the world can offer. He is infinitely better than Tommy but also infinitely more humble. And that is something that you will never even begin to understand or appreciate.
Not Walk Don't Run by The Ventures, rather by Johnny Smith. Chet did his version, and The Ventures, did a "dumbed down" version of Chet's. Tommy's was based on the Ventures version, but you should hear the original by Johnny Smith - a true masterpiece.
Cut the religious crap !... most people give up fairy stories when they are young. Actually the church works hard to replace them with supposedly noble stories !!!
@439514 they are man, and most of them have morals, for example the story of the lost son; this signifies that even though that we have turned from God and sinned when we are ready to come back to him he will always open his arms warlmy. The most noble story ever is the one that a perfect man, which he has done anything wrong died on the cross for all our sins. have you heard of anybody dieing for a bad person? People would think twice for evendying for a good person. But jesus Christ did for u
Foot stomps are supposed to be illegal!! I clearly heard a verbal tap from the guitar @2:45.... Where the hell was Steve Mazzagatti? Dana should definitely sack him for this one.
@Bungordi i understand the quality may be a bit low lol but does the video quality of this video outweigh what the video shows? No. Like out of the option of choosing to give this a thumbs up or a thumbs down you'd have to be an idiot to chose the later.
@JishGuitar i know as a joke this maybe funny, but no matter tommy emmanuel does Jesus Christ is the king of kings and the lord of lords and for that i would rather watch Jesu anyday than tommy emmanuel. So you may have got many likes but its not really that funny.
God bless and hope that you will take heed into what i have said because when you die there will only be one thing that will let you get into heaven, thst is the BLOOD OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST!!!!!
@Fizzypidgen i don't really care about the bonus points, don't even use youtube much. just saw the opportunity to tell what i believe and you should too because when you die were do you think that you are going to go? hevean or hell? even if you dont beleive that u are going anywhere that means life would be pointless right; living on this earth dying and what? lying in the grounf to you rot? i don't thinks so! i know that Jesus died on the cross for all our sins so that we can be with him forev
@ITAMrPink where did u hear that? never knew that all that i know that the only way to get into heaven is to believe that Jesus died on the cross for ALL YOUR WRONG DOINGS!! wow thats amazing he did that so that we can be with him for eternity. email me on judah.cleur@gmail.com if you want to ask more questions. God Bless and Keep you safe judah.
tommy is an amazing person, i ve been in 2 of his concerts, he really feels the music inside him. Always smiling, joking, speakin with the public. I love his style and his personality.
Holy F*ck! I haven't heard a lot of flamenco-esque playing & percussive techniques on a steel string. I think seeing this is a pretty pivotal point in my life. Fuck my shitty job and shitty life. Time to pick-up guitar again, and just live for it.
@Tralman1965 I didn't dislike it and I can appreciate the speed and dexterity required, however this is not to everyone's tastes. I personally prefer the slower versions of this, they sound more... I'm not quite sure of the word, but this one sounds too random, even if it isn't.
