may I ask for tabs? :x i know that's a original acoustic version, but if it's already posted somewhere or ur thinking about posting it, could u let us a link? I think i'm not the only one who wants. sorry for my english, i'm still learning. ty
@layzsailor Thanks for the advice. You clearly have a lot of experience performing. I will try to remember this the next time that I am on stage with Tommy Emmanuel. "Somebody on YouTube told me not to make a noise when I mess up. It just makes it worse." I'm glad that you thought your opinion was important enough to share. And just in time! I have a show this weekend!!!!
@layzsailor I'm clearly not famous. That is not the point. I just happened to read your comment and I could not resist. I mean really, do I play like I just started performing? Seriously, what in the world made you think that I need advice from you? Please answer this question.
HOLY CRAP!! Damn Rhett!! I've been playing guitar for almost 20 years and that song still kicks my ass on electric guitar!! I've got some practicing to do, did you ever record this in a studio? I'd love a clean studio copy of this version. Awesome job Bro, keep it up!!
@sigrone jajajajj feliz navidaaaddd :p pero la guitarra no se da vacaciones yo hasta ahora la toy tocando jajaja como toy de metido con esta hermosura na ya me voy
rhett butler I have always wanted to buy a Cd because I really like your music and I want to help your brother, I live in Honduras and I just dont know where to get it... my best bet is through Amazon.com but they are sold out and they just have used Cds which I obviously dont want because I want to help you and your brother
You owe no one an apology my friend. This is an excellent treatment of an extremely tough piece to play. The improv section around 4:00 is nicely done. Thank you.
@ogfir I've heard him on the acoustic and piano many times, I just think that Rhett's rendition here is pretty unique. I'm actually seeing EJ in October when he comes around my neck of the woods for his acoustic show :) He NEVER comes around here so I'm feeling pretty lucky!
i really liked the use of the harmonics.. i also liked how you transposed it down to include the bassnotes this was really relly smooth and now the big question... is this your arrangement?
Wasnt expecting to catch this on acoustic but I am very grateful that you posted this>>thanks Rhett please keep posting & inspring myself and many others!!
Well,..sir Rhett,..I just got off the phone with Jim Finney,.a very close friend who was the drummer in a few bands I was in in Austin Texas in the between 1966 and 1975, who is now the road manager for Asleep at the Wheel,.and he had to call me about you! Jim hears music all day long every day,..and you and your guitar had him spellbound and inspired to new heights! I haven't talked to Jim in years! He had to call and I am glad he did. I will be buying your CD for you and your late Brother!
un-friggin-believable! let me just say that not only are you a truly sick player, but the arrangement is unreal. I cannot believe how perfectly you nailed that arrangement, and I *really* can't believe how well you executed that entire thing. awesome job. that was honestly up there in the best of the best category.
this is fantastic. Really an excellent interpretation played with a huge amount of feeling. Honestly, as much as I love the original, I've heard it so many times I'm ready for a new way to look at it/listen to it. Thanks for delivering!
Is there anyway you could tab this out??
