I'd give half a testicle to be a quarter good as this...

[martinplayer62]

i think he is just great !! i like most all of his original songs , but i like the way he can take other songs and make them his own , simply amazing

[JrHatch34]

2:35 in all the sudden the who takes possession of him and rocks every ones socks off!!

[69DoomDaddy]

Jeez, I almost expected to see little bits of flesh come flying off at the end there, he was thrashing that poor alvarez so hard!!!

Monte's the man, but Pete Townshend is the man, ya know?..

[blacklawlessd]

I love that CSI twang he gets at the end

Please, please, please--bring back "Tightrope", Monte. You are huge and never fail to amaze, but I miss that vid' so bad. Thanks for this and hope to see you at the Saxon soon.

Muddy Waters once said "No one can be the best, you can just be a good 'un."

Tommy E can not hold a candle to Monte Montgomery. That's like comparing the 19 century with the 20 century.......

[nellgit]

monte is great-raw & emotive-tommy e. is a master of a different thing-chets 2 or 3 complex things at atime-monte is like havin as much freedom on acoustic as possible!emmanuals music is jazz/country-very different & way more difficult to play!both are awesome!!!

[Pappyboyd1]

Amen...Tommy E is amazing...and I'll check out some of the lesser (hopefully "soon to be") known players...but Monte's tone makes you want to bark out one of Roger Daltrey's primal screams

[BobTheSubgenius]

@Pappyboyd1 It's like saying that Matisse is better than Renoir, so I completely agree with your point....except Kaki King. She's competent but has never impressed me. She's being called a great player for doing the things now Preston Reed has been doing for years.

The rest - for sure, and more besides. There are some GREAT players on YT that I'd never heard of before. Don Ross, Antoine Dufour, Robert Taylor, Steffen Schackinger...all quite different.
