Pete was my friend. He taught me how to play guitar when I was just starting out in my songwriting career. I was in my twenties. He was one of the most genuine, kind, self-deprecating people I have ever known, who had a great sense of humor. I will miss him always. He played in my band often and he opened for me band. Pete may have been an instrumentalist, but the audience loved him every time!! This is a Great interview with a wonderfully talented musician and a great friend. Thank you for doing the interview.
I've been studying and playing the guitar for over 30 years. Pete Huttlinger was the reason and inspiration in doing so. In my humble opinion... he was and is the greatest player and teacher of the instrument of all time. For a man I never meet he truly has molded me into who and what Iam. He truly seemed like a great man!
I had a stroke too, in 2018 I know exactly what he's talking about, and he felt, I am trying to recover by learning how to play Guitar, I am not a guitar player, I am a photographer but learning guitar helps me a lot with my right hand and moving my finger up and down.
I've been near death myself and not very healthy now so I try to get the most if every day.Pete was a stand up guy as well as a great player too overcome all he did and to continue on.great vid.R.I.P.
Hard to believe, such a mighty talent and even better person. RIP Pete and thank you for your wonderful instructional material and beautiful guitar playing. A big fan for many, many years. A tremendous loss. Thank you for sharing the great video.
Wow. I completely can relate. I've suffered 2 strokes in 2 years and now my right side, my picking side is done. I can only really do downstrokes now but with the help of Black Mountain picks, I can at least play some again. It's great to see you playing guitar again, keep up the fight. You are not alone.
@@joelfernandez536 All I can tell you is to work hard with it. Your brain will rewire some. Not all, but depending on how hard you work at it, you can gain some back. Good luck and let me know how it goes for you. I've had subs tell me, after watching some of my guitar videos, that they noticed an improvement in my playing. I know I noticed it too.
I saw this when you first posted it a while back. What an incredible story and guy. His playing was phenomenal, but more importantly his dedication to his gift as a guitarist... Wow! I'm glad to have learned about him just before his passing. Thanks for sharing, Tony!
His books and music are still available on his website. GO there and BUY something and tell your friends! He produced so much work after the stroke and heart failure. Beyond amazing is an understatement.
Great interview as always Tony P...Pete's inspiration as an incredible musician lives on to this day as does the example he set for how to make the most of life despite overwhelming adversity.
I feel your question is a hypothetical one...but if you survived your best friends most likely would be cucumbers, squash and and multitude of other veggies. Thank God Erin was there to get him immediate medical help.

This man has just negated any excuses I have for not playing. Wow! What an incredible guy.
His story was scary, amazing, and a terrible loss.
Truly a musical hero that will forever be sorely missed. I envy your opportunity to meet this legend, Tony.

Goddamn I had a massive stroke myself about 16 months ago, still haventgottenmy left hand back. I needed to hear this. What a badass
So much for my excuses not to progress from chords and strumming. Incredible resilience. God bless his bride.
I wasn't aware he passed away. So sad. Thank you for sharing this video and his story

Music brings life to so many musicians. He lived well
Pete’s story is totally inspirational

I have watched the full interview several times; always get the same feeling of a great loss.
Wow, what a lesson in courage and resilience. Nice interview Tony.
Inspiring story. Thanks for bringing it to us Tony. He will be missed.
great vid..so inspirational..no more complaining...why its so hard learning to play my guitar because I have short fingers..
His books and music are still available on his website. GO there and BUY something and tell your friends! He produced so much work after the stroke and heart failure. Beyond amazing is an understatement.
RIP Pete. So awesome that you interviewed him Tony. 🙏🏻🥰
God Bless Pete Huttlinger, one of the best guitarists ever and one heck of a nice guy - our loss is God's gain.
Amazing,...Thoughts are with you...I am amazed and sad at the same time..very humbling....
Great interview as always Tony P...Pete's inspiration as an incredible musician lives on to this day as does the example he set for how to make the most of life despite overwhelming adversity.
i believe you made a heck of a memory for yourself Tony, thanks for sharing it.
Amazing recovery Peter, thank you for sharing
He seems so happy while playing guitar!!!! :)
What a beautiful interview and incredible playing. Thank you so much for sharing.
RIP Pete. You were one of the greats.
All I can say is WOW! Thank you Tony!
Pete's story is very inspirational. It makes my petty excuses for not being able to play seem ridiculous.
Pickin with Pete. I cannot even imagine.
An amazing man. An overwhelming loss. Kudos for a great interview.
Wow, I am speechless!
Wow! Inspiring and so moving. Thank you...
Fantastic! Thank you both!!
Well I thought I was going to do some work, but now I'm just sitting at my computer crying. Miss you Pete.
That was awesome and inspiring. No reason I can not play like that if I put the time in!
God bless him! What a great attitude.
Thank you for sharing his amazing story.
I had zero excuses not to practice and learn before I viewed this, I for certain have none, 100+ fold..
He was only 54. I miss him a lot.
OMG that song was awesome . i might need a tab to learn it
FYI there's a "Pete Huttlinger Appreciation Society" group page on facebook to commemorate all things Pete. Everyone is welcome :)
Omg that was amazing.. thank you so beautiful...
Respect.
Incredible video!
Wow! This guy is amazing! I didn't even know reversed organs was a thing, how bizarre and awesome that he was still alive after all that.
I hope you get better Peter
Words fail me...
name of this song? really amazing
The first song is "Trouble's A'Brewin'" and the second is "Ashes to Ashes". They may be found on the Macguire's Landing album.
What if you live alone and major stroke happens?
I feel your question is a hypothetical one...but if you survived your best friends most likely would be cucumbers, squash and and multitude of other veggies. Thank God Erin was there to get him immediate medical help.
Cucumbers and squash may be fruits...but you get my point
what tuning is this?
Pete is in DADGAD
Amazing story and a fantastic player! This video is a gift.
Bless you guys. What is the name of the tune you are playing?
@@chrisshields266 Thank you Chris
