I taught myself to play by ear on a 12 string, so a capo came in handy as it was wise to tune a 12 down a step or even a step and a half. Then I spent years playing and not using a capo and falling into the believe that they are a weakness. Now that I have started using it again, it is invaluable. And moving the frets around on yourself in no weakness!
As usual, Tommy is outstanding in this and all of his videos and performances. I think that he is one of the greatest finger style players alive today. I enjoyed hearing Anthony Snape sing too.
I just love listening to Willy's shades!!! But I don't understand the whole text! I'm german and my english is not the best. So I would be very happy if anyone could write it down for me!!! I would be very grateful. PLEASE!
GREAT SONGS!!! LOVE Willy's Shades. I have had the pleasure of seeing them both together and on their own. I believe Anthony Snape has IT and will be to Acoustic Pop Rock what Tommy is as a Guitarist...Number 1! They compliment each other.
Ive been looking for a recording of Willie's Shades and Jack Magic everywhere!! Just got done seeing Tommy 5 times over 5 nights in California. He played Jack Magic as his second song every night and Ive been craving another listen ever since. BTW, Anthony Snape is BRILLIANT!!!
Not positive, but I'm guessing from the huge sun on the set that this was a morning show and that Tommy played the night before. Musicians are not morning people in general!
I soooo wish Tommy could teach me to play the guitar he has been my guita idol for over 20 years

@Analist Do you actually know why he's using a Capo? Perhaps you're judging out of ignorance...

What surprises me is Tommy using a Kapo?? I mean, he masters the neck without any need for that.
