Simplicity - Adam Rafferty - Solo Acoustic Guitar

http://www.adamrafferty.com

Here's "Simplicity", dedicated to Tommy Emmanuel. This was my first solo acoustic composition, inspired by the great one, TE. :-)

It's a dedication also to the beautiful, open sound of an acoustic guitar after having played electric for so many years. With this song I got back in touch with what I really love about this instrument.

Tuning is the "Tall Fiddler" tuning. Low to high:

May this bring a ray of sunshine to your day...

[crescentridge]

@TheBlueSnake There will be a SERIOUS lesson. However - a week ago I spilled a coffee onto my mac, I am awaiting repair status....as soon as I have a machine that is up & running, the lesson will become a project!!!

Hey Adam! I'm recovered from my bout with illness and ready to start kicking butt again... just got here for a little inspiration, and my friend you delivered in spades as usual... Never got a chance to tell you what I think of Simplicity... first, the TITLE is perfect. Such a simple melody, I am surprised the world hasn't discovered it before this -- but I thank the REAL Bigdood upstairs that you did. Looking forward to seeing you again at CAAS in July... Peace and health in your travels!

I have searched youtube far and wide for the most beautiful original solo guitar pieces. This one has to be one of the best there is along with Michael Dowdle's Where the River Bends. Great music! Keep it coming!

@jeanmarc81300 Pretty sure mr. Adam Rafferty didn`t wake up one morning with this "gift". It`s minutes, hours, days, months and years of practice. I truly envy mr. Rafferty`s persistency and his ability to express him self through music. Bravo!

Happy Thanksgiving Adam and thanks for another beautiful composition. I played America at my last gig and people love that song. I always credit you and encourage the audience to check out your website. The best way to spread the word, I think.

[gtrrobster]

Wow, that is a beautiful composition Adam. Not sure how I missed it before.

Came here to check it out after rcving the TAB on TG'ing day.

A very nice open, ringing flatpicked tune. Very clear melody pops out over the arpegios, which is a nice touch. Plus, It does not look as hard to learn as I Wish! :)

Thanks.
