  • wow!!!! always loved that song and even more now...........BEAUTIFULLLL

  • jimmy page is great - no one can make him look bad

  • fantasmagoricalicious... all ya need is a big harvest moon and a babydoll on your arm

  • i've heard a lot of great instrumental versions of this, this is by far the best, Soul is not a North or South thing, it's a Soul thing...........

  • ...life is worth living musically because musicians like Roth exist - his band is the bee's knees

  • I feel blues from your play! good job!

  • to bad that a lot of poeple here compare arlen to other players like page, clapton and vai.

    for sure arlen is amazing but there's plenty of stunners too, so you better enjoy that one and switch to the others to find out that they are splendid too...

    there's no competition, only fools do make one of it!

  • Wow.....he's THE KING!

  • Still.

    Just the best. My heart flows with every note. I can't thank you enough Arlen.

    Thank you! And many blessings 2 U!

    Thanks again. Eddie.

  • Although this simply pales in comparison to a much earlier recorded take of him doing the oldie classic Unchained Melody (which sadly is only on vinyl and not on the web anywhere, on Flying Fish records, Lonely Street is the LP & I really need to post a You Tube of it) it still shows Arlen's wonderful feel. ANYONE who doubts Arlen's skill is in a sad delusion IMO.

  • There's an even better version of his "Unchained Melody" on his new "Toolin' Around Woodstock" cd with Levon Helm!

  • I love this video.

  • love it!

  • really fantastic.. and tender

  • Amazing

  • beautifull

  • Arlen got me through a very hard time in my life. His music is truly a blessing.

    Thank you all for posting.

  • This is the most AWESOME thing i've ever heard on guitar .. absolutely AWESOME!! listen to this video all the time...thanks for posting

  • NICE!!!!!!!! This guy does amazingly cool stuff with a tele. Love it. Thanks.

  • absolutely soulful and tender.

  • I found out he plays the song in a different key... A istead of C... anyone an idea why?

  • mate you leave clapton a 100 miles behind,

  • @mairtin911 who is clapton..?

  • @mairtin911 I don't think that Arlin leaves Clapton 100 miles behind.... Arlen meets Clapton at the crossroads...

  • Absolutely the best! Truly a Master of the Telecaster and OOh so Soulful He makes Jimmy Page look like an amateur, Pity he's not so well known outside guitarist circles he deserves a lot more recognition..

  • Couldn't agree more! Check out his new CD. It's available on Amazon. It features Levon Helm, Sonny Landreth, Bill Kirchen and a number of other great players. It's called Toolin' Around Woodstock.

  • he has a great technique i always watch his teaching videos on gibson..dan batavia ny

  • Never heard of him but it sounds great... gream bass and drum also....

  • nice technique...soulful cover...are you married? LOL (just kiddn you man :o)

  • !Fricken incredible! This guy is the best. A "new" high for guitar playing. Clapton...eat that!

  • FUCKING GREAT JOB !

  • I have his double stops video..I use so much of what I learned on that video in my playing..thank yoou soo muuch Arlen for your teaching...You are as fantastic as a teacher as you are a picker.

  • soulful, beautiful playing!

  • arlen is my favorite and more instructive guitarrist he realy has the feeling

  • gosh, that's so beautiful

    sounds like there's a voice

  • Man, this is the guy with a Telecaster. Here in Brasil, he is not too much popular, but every guitarman who likes to play with feeling knows Arlen. Go for it my man, play the feeling!

  • Wow. That dude plays with so much emotion

  • one my fave fave guitarists... i think his volume swells are unparallel

  • What about that look when the rhythm player missed a chord at 1:57! Classic. Reminds me of my band. LOL!

  • Oh yeah. Arlen is incredible. It's not hard to play this but to play it with the feel, tone and emotion that Arlen does takes a special player. And that's what seperates the great players from the guitar players.

  • I bouht Arlen's 1st album when it first came out. I got tired trying to find his music and thought he just did instruction tapes! boy was I wrong, and..stupid.

    Thre greatest technical guitarist living I think..

  • Thank you for the wonderful comment. I will make sure Arlen sees it.

    You should check out Arlen's website (arlenroth dot com) if you're interested in finding his latest CD's. Also, check back there in September. New

    releases coming.

  • This song gave me chills the first time I heard it, and it still does.

    It seems that Arlen has incorporated just about every modern electric guitar style in this song...I guess one could say that if you can play this you can play just about everything! I love you Arlen!

  • The stuff Arlen does with the volume knob is incredible.

  • Perfect!!! What feeling, What a sound brilliant stuff!!

  • Great. Go Arlen. We did a feww gigs in Woodstock together in the 70's. He was great then and better now.

  • Delicious

  • WOW!!!! Such a refreshing burst of taste and style. Rare these days. Love it!!

  • God, I wish my hands were that big... I can only do some of that shit with a Strat or Carvin, and than it doesn't sound the same... YAY, ARLEN !!!

  • Great!!!

  • The best ever! He is the best!

  • that was sweet

  • gat dammit...nailed that one !!
