You can't compare Doyle Dykes and Tommy Emmanuel. You have to appreciate both. They are both different fingerstyle players. Tommy being more aggresive, faster and flashy and Doyle being tasteful, and a more "souped up Chet Atkins and/or Jerry Reed. Both are amazing players and we are lucky to have them around to preserve the wonderful art of fingerstyle guitar.
i think jazz in the box is one of doyles best songs, i have some pretty decent tabs that are near perfect for the song if anyone is interested, comment me and i will email them
I'm torn between being inspired and giving up right now because I'll never be that good. He playing how the guitar should be played like a good pianist e.g. great mix of bass lines, chords, runs, rhythm, melody.
Oh my, even the wanabees are speechless over this display. This boy is HOT SHOT HUEY ALL ROLLED UP INTO ONE. Just to hot to handle, the boy is just to bad folks. How can you be humble when you can go to town like this with the frets? I don't think that there are going to be any folks out there that are even going to try to emulate these licks and runs. This boy has reached high tech calculus on his six stringed guitar. Just wonderful, check out his other videos and get blown away.
Yeah man, very tasty, I like those tuning bends, I like the whole damn thing, impossible for me to just listen to part of it. Merle Travis, Chet Atkins and Joe Maphis are smiling on this.
Now that Chet and Jerry are gone..... I think Doyle is on top...... But Tommy is still out there.......Its so hard to choose between perfect. and perfect
I have played guitar for 58 years......and still not perfect.....
@Davebanker Nobodys ever perfect, not even this guy (though i'd kill to play like him). Thats the thing I love about guitar. Theres always going to be a new challenge.
I'd have my own game show if I could get my hair to that.....You go Doyle!

@mrfreetv Doyle, Tommy, Chet and Jerry use a thumb pick, check out Clarence ` Gatemouth` Brown fingers only. RIP Gate.

I know it's rediculous. 90% of teens in school and even younger only listen hip hop and rap. No rock, no classic stuff like this.
People these days have forgotten what real music sounds like.
