I once saw Mr. Taylor in concert in Montreal, Québec, and it was so amazing. He's one of the best guitar player I ever known. I thank him for all the marvellous music he puts on line !
I remember when you did this piece (it was maybe about four or five minutes long) for *Guitar Techniques magazine* . It must have been from one of the 1999 editions, possibly 2000. It stands out as one of my favourite solo guitar recordings. Very relaxing, melancholic, and helps give me a little wry smile now that I'm getting older. Makes me more appreciative of what I have (a beautiful wife, a nice new house to live in). Thank you for this composition Martin.
You're a blessed man. I envy you my friend. I just lost everything and I'm starting over at age 55. Music like this inspires me to work hard and appreciate what little I do have. Thank you
Martin this is what the world needs right now, beautiful music. I really hope we still get to meet in September at your camp. Please keep it up - we need you! Cheers.
What amazing playing ... I came to this via Martin's conversation with Stephane Grappelli ... such joy to find people with this level of talent who are so modest and so committed to inspiring other people!
Dear Sir, i wish i could explain to you how much your music motivates me and brings so much peace to my life. Thank you very much. I really hope to attend one of your retreats someday.
How many “holy shit” moments can you pack into one song? Wow. There were times I was looking for the “second” and “third” guitarists. Busting out some superb blues licks in amongst all the jazz.
Great rendition of the song. Another Hoagie Carmichael story, my first exposure to his work was when I was a wee lad maybe 5 years old. He was a character on “The Flintstones” and played on a Stoneway piano. Thanks
Outstanding!!! No one plays this beautiful song solo like you do! I have several of your videos, and the first time I heard you play this I was mesmerized! Still trying to learn it, and do my poor-man Martin Taylor imitation of it. God bless you, and I hope that someday you can back to San Diego, CA. again. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🎼🎶🎵🎸🙏🏼🎵🎶🎼
I love the bass line in your tunes. This song is priceless. Thanks for the treat. I'm a newbie at 76, bought one of your instruction books, very helpful. ciao.
You can tell you gave a lifetime of ideas in this piece. Some of them so subtle, natural by amazing. Never forget the first time I met you with my wife. I think you had the same hair styles at the time and were using all 16 fingers. Georgie Fame was a pleasant surprise for my wife & friends who I brought along. Now I think I'm going to listen to this again. It is stunning - but there are no surprises there. Thanks for your methodology in teaching too. Beautifully shot and edited.
Just the greatest ....I once asked the great Jim Mullen what he thought of Martins playing ...he replied "Martin's a monster" there you have it ..from one great guitarist to another!!!!!
Hi Martin. I saw you years ago playing in a bar in Glasgow under the Kingston Bridge. The bar might have been called Gillespie's. The band had taken a break, and I was talking to your drummer. I think his name was Jason. I was young then and a bit nervous about coming over to say hello to you, so I asked the drummer, "Do you think Martin would play Georgia on My Mind? I will never forget his reply. "F*@k off. I hate that song" Thanks Martin for playing it this time. All the best
Very nice Martin. Been' giggin; since '69, still am. Jazz trios/quart's to St Paul Chamber orch. Hope to meet up with Jamey Aebersold in June for a jam in Ky. Played Minneapolis-Mexico, Chicago to Omaha. I really miss the jazz standards and Real Book. PENSACOLA, FLA.is one of my latest finds that still has an appreciation for my favorite art form that is slowing in the So., and Midwest US. Was blessed though to play with artists from Brazil, Canada, And major US cities like Boston, L.A., Toronto, Nashville, Memphis, NY., and N.O, .La., UK. I'm just thankful for your fans and musician's like you, that are keeping compassion for this art form. Keep on. If you're interested I'll send you a CD. Can I find yours on Amazon?
This is what the Big Guy Upstairs puts on the old 33 rpm when he kicks back from all that omniscience, will all the angels hanging around outside the window listening in
I can imagine Hoagy with a big smile listening to this wonderful performance. Thank you.
My favourite standard played by my favourite jazz guitarist. That's happiness.
And...smile. The world needs people like you to make music like this more than ever.

Same!….that’s where I found it….my fave rendition ever.
One of my all time favourite interpretations of that song. I still have that magazine edition snd the tab transcription. Sweet music.
Thank you.
You're a blessed man. I envy you my friend. I just lost everything and I'm starting over at age 55. Music like this inspires me to work hard and appreciate what little I do have. Thank you
Sheer beauty and virtuosity. Thank you Martin.
Congratulations to Martin !
M'y brother Marc FOSSET loved to play guitar with you.
Best regards.
Bernard
I can't listen to this without smiling....and I'm only 90 seconds in. Thank you Martin.
I think that I beat you to it! Barely a minute required, four minutes in and still beaming which is not easy given the times we live in.
Great sound with beutiful backstage story, a very satisfying video... Tq
Martin this is what the world needs right now, beautiful music. I really hope we still get to meet in September at your camp. Please keep it up - we need you! Cheers.

Why am I listening to this over and over again?
It's f'n boring
Dear Sir, i wish i could explain to you how much your music motivates me and brings so much peace to my life. Thank you very much. I really hope to attend one of your retreats someday.
Martin In this days of crisis cause by Covid 19 you are an oasis of joy with tremendus impact to me and those who love Guitar and Jazz ,God bless you
Beautiful and funky - never thought of playing this number in E, but very appropriate for a bluesy version...thanks so much
This is your signature thing. I really enjoy it. Nobody plays it like you. Gospel yet jazzy.
How many “holy shit” moments can you pack into one song? Wow. There were times I was looking for the “second” and “third” guitarists.
Busting out some superb blues licks in amongst all the jazz.
