Thomas Leeb "No Woman No Cry" Bob Marley fingerstyle cover

[DominicRodney]

still watching this in 2012



[cyclesomewhere]

I'm sending Stephen Hawking an email to ask him to tab this for me... I'm guessing he's not pulling it off.

[johndermothughes]

can wait goin to watch him on wed

[arfer]

How the hell......how does he.......aw crap. I'll never be able to play like this. Anyone wanna buy a guitar?

[HandiAce]

All of Bob Marley's music makes me smile no matter what time of the day it is. This makes me smile more!

[owenm31]

anyone know where i can get tabs for this?

[LillaMartin]

@owenm31 i have googled hours in and out... I have searched on many guitar sites. As far as i know. There are no tab for this song. And pretty hard to make one to, ofc you could tab out the basic notes but... So much i dunno what you call it... All the other stuff Thomas do beside plucking strings if u get my point ;) So you kinda have to learn from video... Without all the slams in the guitar it wouldnt sound like this song!

[Ryanttgg]

@owenm31 if you cant pick this kind of stuff up by ear, youre not ready to play it.. keep practicing

[EugenePoluyachtov]

@Ryanttgg Can you play It by ear? O_O

[Ryanttgg]

@EugenePoluyachtov i can play the chords and melody. i cant imitate his style, though. Its not rlly how im used to playing

[mdtguit35]

ok. thanks.maybe i'm a stupid but i be able to play this...and you itsgettingbrtter??

[mdtguit35]

what's the tune??pleaseeeee

[ItsGettingBetter1]

@mdtguit35 are you stupid!!!! its in the title lol

[jeyceemetal]

Imagine What It Would Sound Like On A Distortion Guitar !!!!

Kakanta na nga lang ako pambihira!

[MrTerrorTurtle]

youre cool.

[serenitykilledme]

You should do a show with Tommi Paladnius

But even better you should do a show with igor presnyakov. That's dudes cover of no woman no cry is epic too. Props to you both.

[1Ma9iN8tive]

does anyone know if he tunes to D A D F# A D?

[tirumati2010]

サンシンで表現してみたい！！。

[adamgore1]

amazing dude !

[shiftf8]

Very very cool arrangement and performance. Thanks for turning me on to your YouTube channel. I look forward to watching more and hopefully seeing you perform around town.

Cheers.

Rob Lamog

[RienHeuver]

Wow. Just wow. That is so incredibly played. I play percussion myself (drums, xylophone, marimba etc.) and have played a bit of Bob Marley here 'n there. But this is just a whole new world. Great performance once again, incredible.

[MrRonGuitar]

I am speechless, what a beautiful arrangement you've put together! I am a fan sir!

[givemednb]

can these finger picking artist not stand playing one part of a song...drummer bass player lead guitarist ...i guess a true musician can play with or without anything or anyone else haha

[mohekan07]

dam this dude rocks!!!! hes a legend on a acoustic haha

[supermanmk2]

:O AMAZING! i'd love to see a tab/tutorial of this if thats not too much trouble - not that i'd be able to play it, i'd just love to see what your fingers are doing, and maybe have a go!

[WigganNuG]

Kban: Its Reggae, and played it perfectly in an up-tempo reggae style. Not baroque at all. I couldn't disagree more.

[danielahlm]

@WigganNuG Actually, you don't have to care at all.. He said twice that it's only his own opinion ;)

[SamyDeluxeFan1993]

this is fucking amazing

[faress385]

i wanna know who are the 29 damn asses that did not like this ????

[47FX]

Awesome... !

greetings from france

[theeye44]

Fair play.

[heichals]

you're great! that's wonderful!!=]

I wish I could play as excellent as you..:/

[Kban]

Not a bad cover, but in my opinion a bit noisy. The original song is too much quiet and simple to play it using such an aggressive and "baroque" technique like tapping.

But that's just my personal opinion, good adaptation and awesome skill.

Anyway, nice job. LOVE & PEACE!

[Manovmilk]

@Kban I think you are thinking of the live version of the song :p The studio version sounds a lot more like this.

[MrFlyV]

Great rendition!!!!! Wow!!!

[ShredinTheGnarr]

pure passion!

[Lee141966]

That was amazing u really no how to play the guitar

[MarkusCiupi]

this is fucking AWSOME !

[berry582]

26 people have green eyes because they can't play this good!

[dellforce]

What a way to start April!¡!¡ That was EXCELLENT!¡!¡

[michaelbron]

one of the best performance i've ever seen from a guitarist. you're a genius

[Warphaker]

You should play with Sungha Jung :D

[CapitaineBuisson]

Hey master leeb! it's been a long time i'm mastu...watching your video and i 'd like to know do you think you can made a tablature for this one on your site?

And if you have any advice about what string to buy for open tunning?

( Because even with medium martin my big E string is not really tense when i'm tune in open C )

Thank's for you'r video hope to see you one day live in paris ^^ (sorry for my english)

[TheMscath]

J'adore, si je pouvais avoir ta permission j'aimerais prendre ta musique pour que je puisse faire une vidéo, si tu es d'accord

[BlakeMcMurrayMusic]

Thomas, form a fellow fingerstyle guitarist, you have this incredible "jamming" feeling about your music. Do you use a metronome?

[officernikos]

awesome mate!!!

[chobhamchampion]

thankyou, not just for your music but for inspiring newton faulkner as well :D

[seppalmeiras]

OH MY GOD You are amazing, no words to describe, after I've heard Rylynn I thought that I would never be so obsessed with a song like I was with Rylynn, but this video changed my mind. Amazing. Sorry the grammar mistakes, I'm from Brazil :)

[ArjanAJ]

my god, this song has impossible timing

[Artyfartyify]

@ArjanAJ you can still tap your foot to it :L

[taraldgjerde1]

[alex6734]

[arizonabeotch]

yea i really wish yu would make a tutorial because it took me the longest time to play that song like yu do.especially when im half deaf lol.yur deffenantly one of the best guitarist ive ever seen!

[Musicmadman1000]

What must drive those, now 22 people, to dislike this...if you dont like it listen to something else simple as.

[Mulistylez]

CHHUUURRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!



[Peace1violence0]

After just buying Newton Faulkners tab book it mentioned you. So I gave it a look and you took my breath away sir! The combination of such a good song with your incredible style... Just love it! Do you by any chance have a tab book out though. I would love to buy it. When does the buying ever end!!! :) I'm afraid my playing by ear is not as good as I would like it to be. Thx

[WigganNuG]

22 people listen to Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly. 

[TheHassmich]

but anyway, your version of no woman no cry is awesome

[TheHassmich]

so lets say eko fresh xD

[TheHassmich]

21 people like justin bieber

[thomasleeb]

@TheHassmich : my one and a half year old daughter loves Biebers "Baby" video. About six million of his youtube hits are probably from her. The traitor!!!

[gaiolinn]

@thomasleeb I lol'd.

Didn't lol harder because I'm at work.

[MrAlex0262]

Haha , very nice said :)

[yunikG]

@TheHassmich 22

[mindshotjon]

Thomas, you've become an instant hero, simply amazing

[nikdat]

wow..that looks extremely difficult..dont think i can even attempt that

[joi1337]

Need the tutorial asap! Thomas ftw.

[phonwx]

OOOOooooOMG....i have to start learn to play guitar...now I understand I`m nothing :( gre8fullll...love this !!!!

[jaylovesbarcelona]

love the way you put the harmonics in there geez dude what an amazing cover!

[shane0jack]

Thomas. I was wondering if you would wanna make a tutorial for this. this is just insane. My fav Marley Song. I can play the easier version of fingerstyle, but this just takes it to a whole new level. If not, its cool, but that would be a amazing :D

[thomasleeb]

@shane0jack - I'll put up a few tutorials in the next few months - but this one will still stay one of the difficult ones. It's a bit of a wolf in sheeps clothes!

[puika1987]

Thats fantastic. love this style, flows so good

[Bubblemud]

I would like to try this one, does any of you guys have this tab??... :(

[Maalakay]

simply amazing. greets from Germany

[121jigawatts]

I love this version. Granted Marley wrote a gorgeous melody here, but this is a true tribute to the master. The percussion is interesting and immaculate tone, mostly attributed to your touch Mr. Leeb. Fantastic cover of an already amazing song. Favorited and thumbed up!

[121jigawatts]

@121jigawatts ...oh, and there are 20 boneheads that have broken wrists, ears or both. How can anyone thumb this down? Are you kidding me?? ARRRRGGGGHHH!

[chris93TV]

This is the most awesome acoustic cover i've ever heared in my entire life! You're really really talented!

[djgspartan117]

fucking amazing 

[zahira1239]

i like this man well wishes from this rasta..

[fich87]

Nothing but pure AWESOMENESS :D

[greengrown713]

I constantly watch this. I forget about it for a couple months then watch it 10 times. How in Gods name do you even begin to play like this?

[MrLuckarm]

Im feelin this

[HorstSchlemmmer]

What s the tuning?

[chasegeese]

You, know.. I shouldn't have seen Sungha Jung play this first.

[VanillaBean805]

Fuck yeah bro that's how it's done!

[oikxyz]

he's amazing ! xxxxxxxxxx

[choobalabop]

i really really want to learn this interpretation of the song. Any chance of tabs or a lesson video or even just some of the main chord shapes?

i would be grateful for anything as i have already started to try and work it out, but its difficult

much appreciation

amazing cover amazing guitarist

[shotgunbain]

damn nice!!

[WigganNuG]

I'd love to see Artist Thomas Leeb , and Artist Andy Mckee doing a joint concert in Bay Area Cali soon!!! Thumbs up now!!!

[Greendaydx]

what kind of guitar is that?

[calmit70]

holy crap, awesome!!!!!

[2505mela]

quand est-ce que tu viens me jouer de la guitare.... wow... vraiment sexy!!!!!!!!

[DennChooch]

isn't it confusing for you to change the tuning of your guitar for every song? like, don't you mix up certain notes?

[jpvg3]

Ur great i play guitar to bud i can't get any further then hitting the bass and lead notes i can't do the slapping with it:P

Ur great:)

Hope i can see you one time in real life playing:)

greetings from Jp

[martinleejones]

I have a couple of cd's of your's. Ur Amazing talent. I was brought up playing Vai, bettencourt, malmsteem etc but wish I discovered this style earlier. It's beyond me how good you are and I think this is more technically challenging than speed picking solos. The music and style you play is like soul food. respect.

[Glanzaable]

hy thomas i hob die scho moi in steyr gsegn kumm wida moi in dei heimat ^^

by by

[doubledave22]

where can i find a tab of this? I just found your stuff as well, I've been listening to Mckee and Dufour... your stuff has its own feel which i love!

[llwrdlfstyl]

fuckin amazing! come tour to jersey! id pay big bucks to see this live

[mitchellism]

WOW thats inspiring!!! crazy hands! :)

[thomasleeb]

@TeeAreify: no problem - it would be a sad world if we all liked the same things.

[TeeAreify]

@thomasleeb I'm glad you got what I meant, though, and didn't think I was a total dick. Though not my cup of tea, still certainly badass and full of you, which is awesome. Keep it up.

[scrumpper]

I think 200,000 of the hits are from me. Just amazing!!

[Zella94]

This is amazing! and just imagine this beautiful cover with lyrics to it! i would listen to it all day long.

[richiemabie]

@Zella94 He sings with his guitar !! No lyrics needed. If he were to have a singer the song wouldn't sound the same !

[Ulrick26]

I hope 18 peoples who dislike this vid' did a mistake when they pushed the button.

Just amazing Dude !

[Ozz3AK]

bob marley is smiling at you from heaven.

[ZOMGbirdy]

I would love to learn this cover on guitar... Sungha Jung can do it!

Sounds amazing.

[MsFingerpicking]

das war das erste lied was ich gehört habe ich=begeißerst! die klopfer bei desert pirate klingen cool! Thomas, wie bist du auf die art so zu spielen gekommen? wie hast du angefangen zu spielen? die klopfer und so sind aber erst später gekommen, oder? Toll wie selbstsicher du spielst. ich benutze auch klopfer, aber eher im hintergund damit ich im takt bleibe. wenn ich mit den klopfer spiele kann ich eigentlich gar nicht aus dem timing kommen. Gitarre = beste instrument weil sie vielfältig ist!

[ron9ldo]

Excellent!

[DarkGhana1]

Thomas, which Lowden are you playing on this?

[mufasamusic]

Great stuff!

I dig your style. Thanks for inspiring.

Nate

[bpark005]

lol if i could just play the first 10 seconds of this song i could die happy. beautiful post, man

[siewmengtan]

Awesome Thomas!

[thechristiaanb]

WOW! YOU TOTALLY ROCK MAN!

[strangerinkdesigns68]

Heard you up in Nottingham here in the UK last year,

really cool talking with you between sets~

my wife was on tour herself and we heard you were playing and went up from london to see you

~ wish the pics from that night weren't so fuzzy~

cheers and thanks for the sounds~

[miguellevesque]

Mindblowing performance...Wish I could see you live

[lubberink]

:O zieeeek

[theFRESHMEN23]

you are amazing. well at least i think you are ! . im spreading the word, showing everyone

[shizyballer]

Omg this is the first time i've seen that kinda shit. At first i looked kinda weird for me, but it looks like guitarmastery

[alberito93]

damn thomas! how come you're not on the news yet? man u deserve a subscription :D

[cathalbrophy]

Great Stuff Thomas!

I saw you on Monday in Kilworth. You mentioned that you were really tired after all the travelling but you wouldn't think it to listen to you!

An excellent performance - well done man

[prauler]

congratulations bro you re biggggggggg

[hanibbal665]

amazing there thomas...is there a sheet/tab of this where we buy?

i cannot fully understand what u play from the video and by ear...

[bgg88]

most excellent you would fit in great with the candyrat crew

[captainfeathercup]

You are incredible bro, I really love it, you should defiantly put up a tab of this on your website, I am just beginning to get into the fingerstyle/percussive side of guitar and loving it, I have been playing flamenco and classical for a long time now and he freedom and originality in your music is amazing

[FritzdeJesus]

Awesome. You're making it look so easy. I wish i could see you play live someday.

[Matd8e2]

wow

[TheShindigs1]

love this please check out our cover it aint anything like this tho

[YourSocksAreHot]

Jesus, how come this is the first time ive ever heard of you? You're freakin amazing!

[thomasleeb]

@YourSocksAreHot - thanks! But it's not like I'm hiding in a cave somewhere!

[RJcur]

Hi Thomas, is that some chorus on the sound, or just the natural effect of the mic in your r/e blend? It sounds lovely, full range and clear.

This is a stunning interpretation!

[thomasleeb]

@RJcur probably a combination of both - I only use a little chorus and it's hard to tell. Thank you!!
