The more I watch you Adam the more I am inspired and amazed,Ive already purchased one of your Dvd's and ""PEOPLE"" its a must have for any guitarist who wants to start "be-doogaling" minds like Adam(dont know what that means but....).Im awe struck everytime I see a new video,keep on keeping on brother...Love IT!!!
Delightful... and draws out the jazzy underbelly of McCartney's composition. There are similar jazzy moments on Abbey Road and I often wonder where the music would have gone if they had stayed together...
WOW. One of my favorite tunes, and although I play guitar, I'd never imagined it as a solo piece. Holy crappers, man -- this is good. No, it's better than good: it's splendiferous, glorious, and resplendent. Ha. Really! //// Now I have to get to work, learning to play this. More! Bravo!
How happy is Adam that hes nailing the emotion on this classic song. Your in my favourites list when i need a pick me up from a shitty day. thanks mate.
Ok, I have just ordered your Stevie Wonder DVD in order to encourage you to publish the Beatles DVD. Is there anything else I could do to hurry you up?
Mr. Rafferty, this is simply amazing stuff. I have been playing guitar for 44 years and I am impressed with your interpretations of the songs you perform. Keep up the very excellent work.
You never cease to amaze me. You make this stuff seem as easy as taking a breath of fresh air. Thanks for sharing your music with us. More tunes please, more tunes...
Yeahh !!!! really fucking!!! frikky!!!!!! you are awesome!! no no You are the best guitar player i ever see!!!! man!! you rock!! lol XD! Bravo!! bravissimo!!
I started learning this when I found "troubleclef's" version and I like this version with the partial open G tuning. It seems to bring out those two resonating chords that make your face go nuts when you play them haha! Making that acoustic look like a fun vibing thing to do and getting them very musical arrangements happening. WoWzers yeh I'm working on it heh.
dang man im blown away by the groove you carry in all your playing. i play guitar but nevr really try to get better. YOU make me want to get better. you have lots of awesome videos on here and have shown me theres o much more i need to learn. You are a great guitarist and keep on sharing your skill.
Hey - wait a minute. You get better all the time. Just because YOU can't tell you do doesn't mean squat. :-) We are all on the journey together my brother. Keep shredding!!! Love AR
its all about the soul and how you can make other people go to a more beautiful place......I'm sure you have done that to someone and I hope you can do that for you
hehe, i love this. i think i enjoy listening AND watching, rather than just listening cause i love seein ur face n ur movements, u really get lost in the song. lol, i can tell u had lots of fun playin this one. u got great rhythm in all the songs u do. keep em comin. :D
thanks sistermoonshine, for sharing this fabulous video and music.Adam, I am loving your music.After the first 10 seconds of listening, I hit that subscribe so fast I thought it would put a hole in it. LOL
man, again, i'm left speechless. what you are able to squeeze out of a little wooden box with 6 strings is simply astounding!!!
you play so cleanly, yet jam packed with touch, emotion and vibrance. if a listener can't bop their head to this, i think they need their pulse checked!!
in addition, great recording and producing. your blogs are great as well. consider me hooked.
at one and a half minutes in, you do such a clean run, but never overdone, you have us just nodding our heads in approval and rockin along to your vision, enjoying your latest batch of new videos....your long time fans are with you in spirit as you win over the world, hope fun with your new collaboration and label.....it's all exciting, and we are so happy for you....hugs from us....
If you guys like this guy, then you will surely like Pete Huttlinger. He has been doing similar arrangements for quite a while. Check him out too if you get the chance. I picked up Adam's first disk and will pick up the second one too.
If I could have one wish, it would be to be able to play guitar this well... well maybe if I only had one wish it would be for something bigger, but I definitely wish I was even one tenth as good as you!
Cheers Adam...looks like I might have to save a bit before I can think about getting something similar. Oh well, will just have to make do with my crap £100 Japanese thing for the time being!
Hey! I just finished the new album, I like it better than the first...I will announce it here on you tube for sure, stay tuned. Chameleon, Billie Jean & this song are all on it...
Hi Adam. Thanks for letting me respond with a video (is it here yet?) and checking it out, I have been enjoying and admiring your videos for a while now. I usually prefer not to "harass' other players with my videos other than by chance we appear to have uploaded these two EW&F classics ("Got To" originally by the Beatles, of course) within minutes of each other so it seemed somewhat appropriate... Keep up the good work!
Hell yeah, my friend! Do you have a com link back to TE to share some of this stuff with him? I know he would absolutely enjoy what direction you are takiVyour combination of jazz, be-bop and fingerstyle! A++++ on the bigdood-o-meter -- inspired and catchy! :-) (this video will be included on the Acoustic Virtuosity Archives).
dude, i've been listening to revolver for the last couple of weeks and in particualr this song. Absolutely perfect man! still doesn't beat chameleon though ;)
EW&F version haha. I forgot. Friggin awesome.
