  • EW&F version haha. I forgot. Friggin awesome.

  • lol that Taylor looks way too easy to play. Money well spent.

  • 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!!!

  • @li2ljay Thanks man!!!!

  • WOW E.W.F. my favorite band and this is just freakin amazing thanks you rock!

  • All i can say is OMG. How old were you when you first started playing guitar ?

  • 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...

  • Your a legend man, seriously. You NEED to make tabs for these somehow!!!!

    Love you Adam man. Your just too good for guitar. I don't know what else to say. Thank you

  • 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!

  • @inky960 Oh man, thank you!

  • This is so groovy.... Awesome arrangement Adam!

  • Man, great job. Fantastic.

    You really like what you do. we can see that. keep doing that.

    Thanks very much.

  • Amazingly natural flow of music! You really seem to enjoy every note. Congrats!!

  • 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.

  • You play each day better and better !!!

    NICE!!!

  • WOW! Dat man has Soul, and is super talented, Amazing piece.

  • I like the feel this piece has. Great work as usual, Adam!

    simply LOVE it!

  • YES!!

  • I love you man, you inpired the lazy little guy in me to keep on trying.

  • I can see you really get emotional when you're playing :D

    That's the spirit.

    Keep on rockingg

  • McCartney himself would have been proud.

    great chops!

  • Aw man, thanks!!! :-)

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

  • I second that

    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

  • Thanks Sis! This is awesome!

  • 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.

    such an INSPIRATION!

    all the best, mark

  • This is truly GREAT!!!!! Nice job Man! K

  • Very nice Adam,

    --Eric E.

  • 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.

  • Pete is awesome, I love his playing. Great guy 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!

  • cool fingerstyle. hope you like Cologne

  • I SERIOUSLY cannot wait. This is great news!

  • What make/model of guitar is that he's playing?

  • David this is a Taylor 314 CE in the vid but live I play a Cole Clark Fat Lady Guitar with a cutaway...

  • 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!

  • DAvid

    Well, go find a good guitar repair guy and get a good setup, that's a lot of what makes it sound & feel good!

  • When is the next one coming out? I cannot wait for it!

  • 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...

    :-)

  • Beautiful. Once again you have shown what oodles of talent, hard work and dedication can produce with the acoustic guitar. Thanks for sharing...

  • Simply amazing. I purchased you last album........when is the next one coming out?? I cannot wait for it!!!

  • bravo....

  • awesome Adam. You did it again and added some beauty to an already magnificent song.

    Enjoy the upcoming tour,

    Jeroen

  • Raf,

    Very Nice! Still Hoping to get you to Kentucky sometime....keep it up. I'm learning a ton from your videos.  Thanks a bunch!

  • 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!

  • Comment removed

  • 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).
