Ever notice that nobody else plays rags and the stride piano stuff like Richard? It's because they can't. His arrangements are so good but sooo difficult.
Steve Hicks, another Englishman plays like that as well. He taught a guest class years ago at the Chicago school of folk music. It was an expert-level class but after he played we wanted to line up at the dumpster behind the building and smash our guitars into toothpicks….
i kinda wish the legendary Richard Smith get into a healthier body weight, cuz he is a living legend along with mr Tommy Emmanuel i want them both live super long

Maestro!
I love everything this man plays. I'm a ragtime pianist and have heard many guitar ragtime pickers. This is fantastic.
There are no words for how great this is. What a virtuoso!
Talent determination genius dedication practice genius
I love this, wish I could see him live. Hear him play!!!
I came home from work and found my guitar watching this.
Mine hung itself.
Beautiful, Richard! So well done, as usual! :)
That is wonderful Richard .....
I feel like crying because he's so good
Fantastic playing
From The Netherlands (Holland) Geweldig Richard! Great guitar player!!
Wow !!
Incredible playing so nice to listen to
Extraordinary
Beautiful
Insane talent..mate..
I wonder how much it takes for him to learn a piece like this one to perfection.
Excellent ! Belle interprétation.
Great rendition... gotta love it!!
Absolutely brilliant!!
Fine business Richard!
Wow! Stunning!
I was going to pick up my guitar, but it had glued itself to the floor
& wrote a note "No point going with you"...
Awesome!!
My god…
Bom bom bom bom bom😅
I'd love to hear him in collaboration with a ragtime pianist.

I wish there wasn't that blasted echo from the speakers or whatever is happening there, that is really annoying.
i wonder why he called it pineapple rag
Terrível isso o violão é muito limitado pra tudo isso
