Even if Tommy doesn't play guitar, he would still end up as one of the best humans to have ever lived! This man is immune to fame and is just down to earth humble!
You're absolutely right. He's one of the most genuine people on earth. Humble, always willing to talk with his fans, sit down and chat or play a song, no problem. He's an inspiration to millions of others. Love it.
i wouldnt speak on thr man character as i dont know him personally. he has set himself goal and he pursued them to say he isnt popular or fanous is wrong.. he is one of the most recognize studio and live player.. he has played on countless album...he hinself said that he wasnt home that much most of is kids life. so evretging as a cost. hopefully his kid might get it later.. but if you ask me.. no music is worth the time with your kids growing up ever. i wouldnt do what he did. even know i admire him so much.. missing inportant milestone and things you cant ever see again would be too much. but a man need to provide.. and he did the best he can with his chop. hat off
He seems like such a warm and approachable person. Guitar is merely an instrument that he utilizes to make variety of music that he likes, rather than a master guitarist I would call him a master musician who uses a guitar. The different colors of music that he plays is just phenomenal.
@@nationalsocialist8382 they have limited power when somoene practice 3 hours a day and played 400 show a years. but he might be a freak of nature. like vladimir horowitz who ketp is chop on piano until almost death with his huge hands. the sane can be said of tommy.. his hand are not normal size. and when you try to play his stuff you quickly understand how huge they are and flexible. the tumb work cant be acomplished by everyone. the same can be said of john meyer song Neon... look at his thumb... its very long. and i try to learnthe song and some position are just impossible without a thunbs extension surgery lol.
As a musician who plays multiple instruments and is apart of the hard working class, arthritis is my biggest fear. No joke. Please god dont take away my music. Its all i got
isn't it lovely to witness genius without attitude. Maybe because he's not mainstream mega bucks material in the charts, that he's been able to keep his feet on the ground? Or maybe he's just a genuinely nice bloke. Love ya Tommy!!
The singing makes all the difference [to me anyway]. I'm a guitar geek but singing, that's the holy grail. I became a Tommy Emmanuel fan today. Mair songs Tam. Best wishes from Scotland.
i'm reminded by this vid, that thousands of people can "play" most of Tommy's numbers, but no one can do 'em anywhere near as well as him. How does his un-paralleled technique come about, without ever having had single guitar lesson? i think this guy is amazing.
Craig Madden Music I’ve spent 4 days with him on one of these retreats. You’re right he spends almost every waking minute with guitar in hand, the music pours out of him. That in itself is part of the “talent”. But it is a mix of hard work and genuine talent. Talent is real, particularly where music is concerned.
This is awesome ! What a great experience to be able to jam with him and have a lesson or two. I have not had much time lately to work on another cover but hopefully will have more time soon. I will be seeing him in concert in a week!!😁
🎼🕊️🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸 спасибо за музыку, спасибо огромное Томми!!!! Успехов, брат,, здравия желаю, радости творчества, приезжай в Улан-Удэ Россия, Байкал рядом с нами 🌈
Yeah it is not insufficient material...there is always some new clip to watch and listen which is actually excellent. I am big fan of course, watching and learning from Tommy's videos is like going on college and 15 years of studding .. no other way...
@@RobyNos / meaning not a house hold name man, I had never heard of him myself, been playing for years locally and nationally, until I heard Eric Johnson talk about him and I know Eric personally. Same with Eric ,use to see Eric for $3.oo in bmt. tx years ago at a club called the" Foxy Lady" (not there anymore) so that's what I mean.
One day, I'm hoping with a lot of practice...I may play the guitar as good as he does. For today, I can spell guitar and that's good for now. Wait till tomorrow.
He's been playing since he was 7. You will be NEVER as good as him! It's like I'll take up UFC and be as good as Khabib in 2 years with 12 hours a days practice. Just be as good as you can be
A man who loves his work and his fans.A real gentleman indeed.
Even if Tommy doesn't play guitar, he would still end up as one of the best humans to have ever lived!

What a great comment! Your spot on. I've not met Tommy but know some who have and you are so correct.
Wouldn't it be a lovely world if other 'stars' (who, in my opinion, aren't fit to lace Tommy's shoes) were this nice to thier fans.
I met Jimmy Page once, same vibe.

Tommy seems like the nicest bloke you’d ever meet.. what a legend

Tommy make's me so proud to be an Australian 👍👍🍻🍻🇦🇺🇦🇺
Tommy besides he's a monster on guitar ..he's the type a guy you just enjoy having a talk and drinking a beer...such a incredible person!!
Absolutely no ego just pure talent. So generous passing on his knowledge.
It’s crucial that we protect this man from arthritis.
bring him the best healthy food, so he can last longer, nice guitarist.
Cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower and avocado's are all great for the cartilage in the joints.
I’ll pay for his cryogenic therapy btw!

National treasure this bloke. Only really recognised by other musicians though? He truly loves the guitar. Hopefully all Aussies love him!
He is a guitarist phenom of the highest order.
I've seen Tommy twice. He is absolutely amazing.

These people talking in the background like one of the top guitarists ever isn't just slamming it 10 feet away.
the Master of Masters teaching us regular folks how to have more fun. do not worry about your skills. just have fun.
He doesn't need a stage, a big orchestra, a sound service ... genius is genius, anywhere and anytime.
“It’s the opposite of what you’re doing, that’s why you are not getting it.”
- Tommy Emmanuel
I laughed at that. He's the only guy that can say you are 100% doing it wrong and still not be offended lol.
Thank you so much Tommy, I really really enjoyed watching to you and listening to you too. Amazing And Awesome Too. Please stay safe and well too
He looks like my Uncle Alfred" RIP, lots of good comments here.Godbless ya Tommy your the best.
I thought I was a guitar player but really I'm just a guitar collector.
Occasionally I change strings and don't screw one up. That's the height of my skill.
The thing I like about TE is that he allways has time for people.As good as he is he gets like a kid in a candy shop when he talks guitar,
It's really inspiring isn't it, he gets more humble and passionate about it with age.
How awesome it must have been to be at a party having Tommy Emmanuel give you an impromptu guitar lesson!
I love Tommy's music ... he is such a great player, tons of energy and enthusiasm .. great teacher too!
greatest player ever. amazing human being. bravo Tommy!!!!
He is awesome,I’ll never play like him but I bet he can’t lay bricks like me 😂😂
That's actually very sweet. Good on you for knowing your strengths. Hard to do sometimes.
And he needs US to be the ears in the forest (and the wildly clapping hands!!!) Lol 💖🎶
And he can't build houses like me!
I can layer brick 35 years rather do it than eat
he is the kind of guy that can stop a conversation just to be able behold something amazing
This man is a legend..I can't believe he is self trained. Respect...
Magic........what a talent, what a gentleman..........what a treat.
Next level guitarist. Probably best I’ve heard and I’ve heard many
The Best Tommy Emmanuel. Great Artist and really simple Good Personn. I am fan of this Man.
I only stumbled upon TE about three weeks ago and I'm 62! I'm tototally blown away!
Tommy E. is one of the best guitar players i have ever heard. ( I play guitar more than 40 years.)
get a real teacher maybe it's too late for you sir
@@banjoboy01 its never too late buddy
@@banjoboy01 Such and edgy and brave comment, bruh. Try harder next time.
@@coryCuc what was the original insult? learn how to read music? I forget
@@banjoboy01 Try writing your comment in English next time, perhaps.
He seems like a masterful mentor !
I'm a rock and metal guitar player....but I love this styl....tommy is the best.....thank you chet....
Acoustic guitar has no special effects, but its effects are special.
Don't forget Merle!!!
Jesus Tommy is awesome.. Deep river is such a fun tune
i love the guy in the background for the last part. he is supposed to be in conversation, but keeps being drawn to the music.
This dude convinces me that I need to work on my guitar if I'm not a good singer. That'll work too :)
Amazing to hear Jolly Swagman underlaid with a Scottish lilt, beautiful Mate, just beautiful
Love you Tommy, the best person playin guitar, god bless man.
Tommy's pulloffs are soo goddamn clean
Tommy is just god damn amazing.
How lucky are those people to be playing with and watching this dude
I was just wondering if anyone had ever filmed Tommy when he was a young lad playing in the band with his family? That would be something to see
Love this dude for his unstarry disposition and remarkable playing
I love him. Thanks for sharing you beautiful human being 💜
Tommy ... such a generous teacher.
Thanks.
Mind blooooooown!!! Wow!
I can listen to "Jolly Swagman" all day.
Wow. What a great video. Thank you!
You have to love the man's boundless enthusiasm!
Fabulous Tommy... the guitarrist and the man! Congratulations, from Portugal
Stops playing for a second. "It's an Eddie Pennington move." This is great! Thanks Mr Tom
Eddie is brilliant and that was sooo cool to hear!
Splendid! Wow....
Superb guitar playing..Tommy you're a guitar god.
tommy always giving off good stuff to learn
I love how tommy seems to be enjoying it
Классные мелодии,, спасибо, Томми !!!!!
Приезжай в Улан-Удэ,😊👀🚴
Yes! I met him many time and I do have same friends. I live in Nashville like him
I enjoy it very much, thank-you for sharing
One shot from tommy and hes got me going for a half hr .So inspirational. the master of timing and technique to say the least
This man is the epitome of everything human!!!
Who remembers seeing Tommy on the Bert Newton show? Still mind blowing after all these years
He was on Hey Hey Its Sat so many times... I loved it. I recorded it with VHS.
Tommy Emmanuel Capo total!!!!
Это просто прекрасно. Как же я балдею от Томми
His sound is amazing!
It's kind of insane how he just appears to be strumming yet all this intricate melody comes out. Defies physics.
Delta blues at its finest. Soooo coooooool!
What a great guy, that Tommy Emmanuel be.
Wonderfull person, with selfless atitude.Long live, Tommy Emmanuel!!!
The singing makes all the difference [to me anyway]. I'm a guitar geek but singing, that's the holy grail. I became a Tommy Emmanuel fan today. Mair songs Tam. Best wishes from Scotland.
What a great guy he is.
TOMMY EMMANUEL ! The Greatest percussionist that learned how to play a guitar!
Yes. He was the drummer in the Richard Smith Trio many years ago
I ADORE Tommy Emmanuel -- thanks for sharing this!!!
lordy. That would be an intimidating camp to attend!
i'm reminded by this vid, that thousands of people can "play" most of Tommy's numbers, but no one can do 'em anywhere near as well as him. How does his un-paralleled technique come about, without ever having had single guitar lesson? i think this guy is amazing.
Cause he practices more than anyone else
And he invented most of his techniques
@@craigmaddenmusic3408 Nope, its more than that. It is quite rare when talent and practice meet. Tommy and Richard are one of those rare people.
@@UmVtCg I don't believe much in talent it's hrs put in

Lucky Dog ! Have the Best Time !
He seems to get better everytime i see him no matter what his age
A living legend !!
I still think he may be the best living acoustic guitarist I've heard in terms of sharp shooter accuracy
mindblowing,,and what a man!
🎼🕊️🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸 спасибо за музыку, спасибо огромное Томми!!!!
Успехов, брат,, здравия желаю, радости творчества, приезжай в Улан-Удэ Россия, Байкал рядом с нами 🌈
Он просил передать возможно он приедет в следующей жизни в Улан но у Удэ уже нет - слишком плотный график гастролей ! (Шутка)
How easy is for him the most complicated tune ? Well Tommy is the greatest guitarist of all times. Simply.
Good thing of being TE fan is that there's like 300 new videos every day hahaha :)
Yeah it is not insufficient material...there is always some new clip to watch and listen which is actually excellent. I am big fan of course, watching and learning from Tommy's videos is like going on college and 15 years of studding .. no other way...
i'm from indonesia country..very like this video..good luck mr tommy emmanuel jesus bless you
These guy's soul is unlimited!
This guy is up there with the best in the world. Again underrated guitar genius.
Why underrated? He is very famous...
@@RobyNos / meaning not a house hold name man, I had never heard of him myself, been playing for years locally and nationally, until I heard Eric Johnson talk about him and I know Eric personally.

Duke if you never played guitar ... you would still dominate !!!! Champion by nature !,,,
He's just great
What a cool guy!👍😎🎸🎶
Great Tommy. I and my daughter Markéta really like it
your music. Have a nice day.
watching and keep hoping the video does not end
Tommy I love your passion...
That mahogany gives it such a killer tone
I hope someday I will play like this.... It makes me so happy....
@@philgray3443 you already gave up
He is truly amazing
Tommy, you're a genius of finger style... Beautiful sound like a Bell!!
Jolly swagman is the most beautiful thing i have ever heard.
Great Video Presentation 👍
He's freaking amazing.
When Tommy finally leaves the world they to study his body to see if he was really from this planet , amazing talent
He's a national treasure.
International treasure!
Like Pinocchio...he was a guitar who magically became a boy:)
How can it be that those people in the background aren't tapping their feet and staring in awe ?
One day, I'm hoping with a lot of practice...I may play the guitar as good as he does. For today, I can spell guitar and that's good for now. Wait till tomorrow.
He plays the guitar 8-10 hours a day. You can get to that level also, takes huge dedication.
He's been playing since he was 7. You will be NEVER as good as him! It's like I'll take up UFC and be as good as Khabib in 2 years with 12 hours a days practice. Just be as good as you can be
@@DC180 there are those who are "talented", plus your attitude is crap.
@@prince5922 ok you will be just as good as tommy Emmanuel.. or even better!!! Get real!!
you won't get better by waiting
