Actually, if you watch close, Richard is doing most of the picking. Tommy is singing for most of it. Tommy LOVES to hear Richard pick. Tommy does kick in a little twin work and a fancy ending though.

It is always an unbelieveable privilege and a big thrill to get to pick with Tommy. He always brings out the best. I hit a 2 chord that Tommy didn't like; and he told me about it afterwards. We always have a great time and I always learn from him. Tommy is not only a great guitar player but one of the finest human beings on this planet. I'm a big fan.

@danielw1245 Sylvester Weaver recorded it back in the 20s. I think he wrote it, not sure.

@superpicker so what though? lol tommy is still way better, 2 different leagues, that other guy does play nice though

Tommy Emmanuel is so extremely gifted, it almost seems incredible. His technical ability on the acoustic guitar is second to none. Chet Atkins and Jerry Reed were very good and I love them very much, but they don't come close to Tommy Emmanuel. He is truly the Paganini of the guitar world.

@superpicker chet atkins did not write this. This is a mearle travis song.
