I can’t say I ever heard anyone play this tune on guitar like this. Simply superb.
I got his tabs for Shine on you Crazy Diamond. Once you try to learn it you realise how damn good this guy is. Here he has done it again. Bravo
@@carlgorton4642 that is a great info, where can i find the tabs?
That's how it's always played
Agreed.
For sure!!!
"And I am not frightened of dying. Anytime will do, I don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying? There's no reason for it - you've got to go some time."
- Gerry O'Driscoll, janitor
Abbey Road Studios
Genius
You forgot “ I never said I was frightened of dying”
Absolutely iconic.
A janitor spoke those?? What's the story? Always thought that was Rick Wright
your worst nightmare I think all the interviews on the album are of nobodies. Which makes it very special imo.
This came up as recommended and I was skeptical...didn’t think this song could be done properly like this...wow was I wrong. Incredible job.
Check out his Shine On You Crazy Diamond cover. Absolutely amazing
exactly what I did. I could hear her voice in there....
@@shannonhemingway9950 It's a man singing.
@@Mantorok No it is not.
I'm a happy victim too 🙂
The sign that he is pulling this off brilliantly is that it is almost impossible to listen to this without mentally inserting and almost hearing Clare Torrey's voice signing along.
Only a guitar player would appreciate how well this guy played. Well played, sir.
I know this tune absolutely by heart, every detail of it. This cover picked up every nuances and is executede by the hands of a master !
I was thinking the same... every single nuance and detail and all the dynamics... pfff amazing
Avi Elkharrat I agree! Very well said.
Красачик
Absolutely.. incredible
Beautiful Guido ... My dad passed 4 years ago this month ... a big Pink Floyd fan. After hearing the news of his death, (I was at work at the time) I left to be home with my family and the first song that I heard on the commute home was this ... My playlist was on random, 1000s of songs, and this was the first song ... was convinced that was his way of telling me "all is cool son, all is cool :)"
Wow, this gave me chills...sorry for your loss
That wasn't coincidence.
This gave me chills
Beautiful to know that even on the other side of existence your pops is telling you everything will be alright :) Life goes on. I'm sorry for your loss.
Losing your dad must have been so painful and probably still ambushes you from time to time.
I liked your PF story. My 19 year old son died in an accident 6 months ago. PF was his favourite band, too. We played The Great Gig in the Sky at his funeral, amongst other PF songs, including Eclipse and Wish You Were Here...they felt very appropriate.
I've never heard a fingerstyle version of this song before and i love that one, wonderful performance.
Un grande Maestro. Bravo, bravo, bravo.
I was watching this thinking yeah it was pretty good but theres no way he'll do the vocal part fingerstyle. And then he did. Possibly the most amazing acoustic arrangement I've ever seen.
99/100 famous guitar players could not play this. Awesome.
yet - if you buy the sheet music and really work at it for a long time you'll get close - ok maybe not as good as guido though
I’m gonna find the 10 people who disliked this video and slap them with a big fish. Outstanding playing!
👍👍👍
Slap them with a pig or dog instead
Now it's 28 but slapping isn't worth the effort.
I'm rather going to try and master two of those chords one after the other instead.
How about kicking them so hard they will have a front row seat to the great gig in the sky 🤜😎🤛

Your'e a genius, the best!
Great to see real talent recognizing real talent!
I would never have thought that this (one of my all time favorite Pink Floyd songs) could be captured on a single acoustic guitar. So very well done. To say you have a gift is a total understatement.
Я не представлял что ЭТО можно сделать на одной гитаре. Берёт за душу. 😢
This man's skill pegged the scale so hard he broke it...sounds absolutely beautiful
If ever you could hear sunlight, I'm sure this is how it would sound!
sunlight flashing through cumulo-nimbus!
Well most any Floyd fan would be happy to share a little secret with you 🌈
The best part

I hope someone has shown David Gilmour your channel. AMAZING!!!
This shows both incredible skill and deep appreciation for the beauty of the original. What an artist
Your pinky has its own zip code. Mine can't hardly skip a whole step. It's beautiful!!!
Sitting here open mouthed... that was just incredible!
What a song and what a rendition! That was awesome!
Amen to that
Exactly how i felt!
It’s not the music we cry over, it’s the memories we’ve had while it was playing
Are you seeing that! Just one acoustic guitar, dude is a god ❤️🐿️
I've listened to it dozens of times. Each time I turn it on for one minute and I can't stop. It's a thrill! Thanks!
Sorry for my English. With love from Russia
Your english is fine, брат
@@Vadiquevids very good, better than most Americans
@@shakyhandpictures2185 hahaha))
The greatness of pink floyd is that no one can sound pink floyd. But you captured it well.
💯
"And I am not frightened of dying,
any time will do,
I don't mind.
Why should I be frightened of dying?
There's no reason for it,
you've gotta go sometime."
Amazing. I'm sure Rick Wright would be impressed
Gilmour would be just as impressed if not more!
I'm blown away, this is an awesome interpretation, you made it your own, and yet it still hit every note where it needed fk hit.. Great work dude!
Incredible cover.
Also you look like you could crack open a coconut with those hands.
Exactly.
excellent - just excellent
I've been learning the melody line on guitar and trying to be fluent with it. What you do sir, goes beyond anything I could imagine doing for this song on guitar. Bravo, thank you, and I'll be listening to this for at least 100 times more.
I wish I could like this video thousands of times
This may just be the nicest acoustic guitar piece I've ever heard.
Saw this masterpiece like 3-4 moons ago now i came back here and i realize why i added it up to my perfect list
Ciao Guido, dire che sei bravissimo non ha senso. IO sono uno strappacorde e forse non posso dare un giudizio. Ma tu ,come pochissimi sanno fare, sei nel tuo strumento e nel suono che esce. Senza parole.
each time I hear you play this arrangement it sounds better and better Bravo - I might have to try the sheet music :-)
bought your sheet music - oh boy this is gonna be a challenge!
Holy cow - I can't even imagine trying to approximate this on guitar. This is amazing! Great job!
This dude is like the calculus of guitar. Its an approximation that has become an equality. Every motif of the song preform was somehow captured here from the piano, to the bass, singing, electric guitar all in one piece. Very impressive work.
You've added to this world.
What a beautiful execution of this piece. 👏🏼
I think David now regrets he didn’t think or weren’t capable of such masterpiece
I have been playing this piece on the piano for over 40 years and have never found a guitarist who had a clue what to do with it--and then I find this. What a wonderful arrangement, Guido. You've not only nailed the accompaniment (including bass) but got the vocal highlights as well. The many hours you have put into this shows as you play it with such composure. Thank you for sharing! Enjoy Earth!
I truely didnt know it is possible to play such a beautiful rich melody with only one acoustic guitar
One of the best fingerstyle covers i have seen.
And when Clare got done laying that amaz,ing, emotionally reverberant track she said ,"sorry," and Rick was already in love with it. Worth it to warch The Making Of The Dark Side...
I'm a huge, huge PF fan, but never really cared for this tune much. Last fall I saw Brit Floyd (internationally recognized and touring PF tribute band - totally worth seeing) and they played this. The woman that did the vocalization almost brought me to tears. In fact, I'm almost tearing up thinking about it as I write this. It was touching, mesmerizing, moving - and a lot of other adjectives I just don't have the words for... It made the song finally "make sense" to me. She got an incredible standing ovation immediately afterward - to include me. My arms were tired from clapping so hard. It was absolutely, positively outstanding. Needless to say, I'm a fan of this tune, now.
And I thought playing, “Blackbird”, by the Beatles, was a great accomplishment for me, seems I still have much learn. Bravo, and this sounded so beautiful!
I 'm practising on Blackbird these days, ah ahh, I think it'll be a great accomplishment when I finally succeed in playing it well
Brilliant.
Now that’s how you play Pink Floyd. Amazing
I've never heard and seen a fingerstyle rendition of The Great Gig In The Sky. This is extraordinary playing....What a great musician you are ...
Piano - Bass - Lap steel Guitar and vocals, all in one acoutstic guitar
Just OUTSTANDING - BRAVO
Assolutamente unico e fantastico. Suonata da Dio, da un senso di grande spazialità musicale e forte emozionalita.
Grande Guido Mancino!!! Seguo da tempo il sito, i pezzi sono suonati con grande maestria, sono uno più bello dell'altro.
Grande talento italiano
BRAVO! For even considering do in this. BRAVO! BRAVO!! for even working out the arrangement and the tabs for doing this!!! BRAVO! BRAVO!! BRAVO! BRAVO!! BRAVO! for even attempting this. BRAVO! BRAVO!! BRAVO! BRAVO!! BRAVO! BRAVO!! BRAVO! BRAVO!! for doing the song justice!!!
Guido, congratulations for creating your own style and sound. This is something new. And the songs, nobody would even try to do it. You have nailed the harmony, the melody and the general feel- it's brilliant. It is so good that I want to by for start, The Great Gig. It gives me goosebumps, its a divine tune.
Regards Jack
70 people 's musical taste is lost somewhere on the dark side of the moon.
This is nothing short of brilliant!
beautifully played
Terrific performance! Just incredible 👏👏👏
That pinkie is really dancing... Amazing job
Very much in awe. I have no doubt that you could figure out a way to pull off “On the Run,” and make a guitar work with that! Incredible talent.
Everyone up here is smiling.
Davvero pauroso. Una grandissima tecnica unita a una espressività rarissima. Complimenti di cuore da uno strimpellatore che credeva di essere un passabile chitarrista
😲😲 wow..... I've been a floyd fan for 45 years and have never heard or even thought it possible to play this on a guitar, almost as moving as the original song..... thank you so much for sharing this ❤
Steven Harwood was thinking the same thing
That was awesome!
i did not think it humanly possible to play this otherworldly tune on guitar!!! respeck!! boya kasha.
I've lost count as to how many times I've watched/listened to this and shown to others. Very well done!!!
Breathtaking
Absolutely OUTSTANDING
this is crazy!!!! wonderfull!
Amazing! I could play guitar for 3 entire lifetimes and never come close to matching this.
There's not a note played that's not where he wants it to be. Beautiful.
That was just incredible. It sounded wonderful as an instrumental acoustic piece. You are seriously talented sir and I teleport my hat off to you !
Wow! Never thought this could be played on acoustic, great!
Я слушаю это в 101 раз и не могу насладиться!!!
Salve. Lei è molto bravo . La versione dei Pink Floyd ..Shine on you crazy.....fantastica.....Grazie.
Это гениально!!! Это виртуозно!
Это самое лучшее исполнение ! Хорошая работа! Спасибо!
Simply beautiful. This is every bit as moving as the original. Hats off.
Epic rendition.
Wow I'm at a loss for words...
This is beautiful.
❤
I never thought it would even be possible to play that song with an acoustic guitar. You proved it otherwise, amazing!!
Came back after two years and this is still beautiful.
So beautiful.
I remember hearing this song live for the first time like it was yesterday. Unfortunately it was a PF tribute band, because Pink Floyd are a bit before my time (born in '97). Iremember it so vividly, because it's the first time I cried like a mad man during a concert. I never knew that music could pull that out of me, never have i felt that emotion, it wasn't sadness, it wasn't exactly happiness, it was a thing of its own, just raw emotion i guess. And this version was close to what I felt that day.
So to be able to play it on the guitar would be a literal dream come true, and even though i am noooooooowhere near this level of playing, i'll buy your tab and break my fucking fingers untill i can play this song perfectly.
Same. I'm not sure weather I'm able to play this, but I'll sure as hell try.
I never imagined that this song could be played like this. AMAZING. David Gilmore could not have done any better Just Beautiful.
Dude.., DUDE...!! that was Fukken AWESOME...
i want yo to play that at my funeral
десятый раз переслушиваю...с ума сойти!!!
Согласен, просто обалденно👍👍👍
@@rockandroll4285 здорово...земляк! привет из израиля от сахалинца!
A difficult enough song to play on piano, its native instrument, let alone on a guitar! Bravo Guido!!!
I cant believe this cover, the way you make one guitar sound like the whole song. Bravo my friend
Started off skeptical, ended up nearly crying. Bravo, sir. Phenomenal cover.
Can't get tired of it. Just like the original version 😀 !
I never thought this song was possible in just a guitar. out of this world!!
Oh.. this is classic... still can't get over it...
An excellent version of this piece.
When I clicked on this I thought you would just do the introduction (i.e. the bit before Clare Torry)...but then you kept going! Outstanding interpretation and playing, thank you for sharing.
Hi Guido you have moved me to make a request. I am 50 years old and have been listening to Pink Floyd since I was very young, thanks greatly, to my two older siblings. To think that this particular piece joins me in celebrating it's 50th anniversary, gives me great pleasure. Pink Floyds music is something near to perfection and not of any time as it is timeless and forever relevant, in my opinion . As a fairly competent student of classical guitar, I have nothing but admiration for your arrangements and pro level performances and owning a professional recording of your full body of Pink Floyd treatments, would sit proudly alongside my Floyd vinyl collection and go some way to making it more complete, which I don't believe it would be without it. Your arrangements are so exacting of the complete music of the various instrumental parts including rythmically echoing the feel and groove of Nicky Mason, encapsulating each piece of Floyds sound, on a single instrument, to a level I wouldn't have thought possible. I have started to purchase the tab pdfs in order to study them myself, as right now I can only imagine how gratifying it must be to play them and I must scratch that itch! I understand there maybe issues regarding copyright and such but I believe if any Floyd member heard these comprehensive renditions they would take is as huge compliment and a fitting homage of their work and possibly quite touched they were able to inspire such incredible work. I wouldn't say all this, if I wasn't totally sincere about it, you're that good! So a most heartfelt Thank You to you for this gift, which makes me feel I am hearing it anew. Let me know if this is something you have considered and anything that I could do to help support the endeavour. 10 out of 10 channel! ❤ big respect! You have inspired me.
Ditto. 54 y/o here.....
The Great Gig has always been one of my favorite pieces of music.
During the 70s while I was in elementary school, all my friends on my block were 5/6 years older than me and they were all rockers.
I was listening to all the great classic rock tunes at age ten.
It helped too that my father loved Elvis and classic music.
Dear Guido,
Being a guitar player myself, I thank you from. the bottom of my heart for this fantastic version of this piece. You've offered me a suspended moment in which I was sitting next to you and just listening. It's rare for me to be taken in such emotion. So, an ENORMOUS THANK YOU for your generosity and sensibility !
Clicked on this not expecting to sit and listen to the whole thing. Couldn’t stop watching. Extremely well done. 👏
😲😲 omg that's so perfect. My dog is asking for the tab
Amazing
You got my vote. Run for President.
From one avid Floyd / GIlmour fanatic to another, EXCELLENT!
This is one of my alltime favorite albums and your renditions are really incredible. You think you might be able to give "Any color you like" a go? Seems you almost effortlessly play guitar parts along with other instrument parts at the same time really making it special as well as your personal touch thrown in while remaining true to the original. I play guitar but what you do far exceeds my skill level by light years. It's a pleasure listening.
holy shit, what a great arrangement!
Nobody’s mentioning the cool effect at the end 😂 great cover !!
I am a big floyd fan and alk I can say is: Best acustic cover of this song!
I have absolutely no doubt that Rick Wright will be smiling down on this performance. This piece has some sublime chord changes care of his jazz influence.
