1:42 such a supersweet chord change-LOVE IT
Hi, my name is Francisco J. Romero, I'm a pastor in Venezuela, I really like the way you play, God Bless you talent.
Walter,you make my darkest days tolerable when I listen to your music.thanks from the bottom of my heart.keep it up :)
Thank you, Michael! You made my day!
I agree totally :-)
Awesome..love it
Genialidade e Humildade !!!!! Walter você é um “ Monstro “ 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
RUclips decided to suggest a lot of guitar music my way quite suddenly a while back. As I got to listening to these arrangements and the musicians playing them, I realized that without exception I liked your arrangements and playing far more than any other.
I, too, love your musicianship and musicality and it cheers me up. Thank you for sharing your gift.
The way you play the guitar simply make it sound as if there were two guitars played at the same time
Walter, this is sheer perfection. Your arrangements always exceed expectations. Beautiful.
Thank you!
Well..., I could see and hear a happy musician playing happy music. Thanks a lot for this gift to all who can watch and listen to your play and to me.
Your wonderful playing inspires me to practice!
So relaxing
Every time I come back and listen to you, I am deeply humbled.
His playing flows like water - what a talent.
Just the way a guitar must be played. Beautiful indeed.
Who give thumbs down to this. Walter you truly have a gift. Thanks
Walter's music is a regular feature on my playlist when I play with my one-year-old daughter. I just want her to get used to one of the most melodic easy-listening - and I use this term in the most positive way - guitar players. Wonderful!
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Never got tired to listen every night
We all recognize Walter's mastery of the fingerboard and of what Ted Greene called "American harmony", but I am also enjoying his perfectly timed percussion.
Love this. So smooth to the senses.
Help me gather my Jaw from the floor!!!!
Oh My God that chord progression!!
And this is ONE-TAKE recording!! Oh My God.
Speechless I am.
all your performances are warm , they give me the feel of a snowy day with a chimney
I love this arrangement!!!
Just wonderful
Absolute musical genius. Simply beautiful
Just beautiful
You are putting a smile on my face with your playing
I think my ears just melted from the awesomeness.
that soft touch feel just makes it even better to watch
What a remarkable set of Stevie Wonder tunes on guitar-nowhere have I found guitarists playing this cool music live like this
So smooth
that smile after you finished the song always makes me smile
This piece is perfect.
Walter, I love your ideas with chord melodies and progressions and your great friendly personality. Thanks.
Ohhh hohohoho....!!!! Yeah, how can anyone forget this SW's masterpiece!!!! Yeah, keep the chords coming, yeah!!!! Fantastic!!!
Lovely! Absolutely lovely!
Incrível Walter. Mais e mais, precisamos de mais interpretações suas!
Wow! That is one the most memorable renditions of one of my favourite songs. Bravo
I have never been more inspired by another musician than you. Your playing brings so much depth and richness to solo guitar. Thank you for posting so many videos for us to enjoy.
This song was the first piece of music I ever bought on a 45 record back in the early seventies. Still love it. Thanks for the great rendition.
Sounds wonderful!
Superb rendition of this classic music…
You are a real gifted man who loves what he performs.God bless you!
BEAUTIFUL!
just wow!
Your playing is just simply amazing. Also love the joy that is shown on ur face while playing
If you asked the greatest finger-style guitarists alive today - England's Martin Taylor, Australia's Tommy Emmanuel and America's Doyle Dykes [the latter alone was asked to play at Chet Atkins' memorial service at the Ryman Auditorium] - if you requested of them a transcribed arrangement of this early Stevie Wonder hit - and then played this video for them, I believe they would tell you “THAT is impossible to improve upon!”
As someone already noted in the comments below, Walter cleverly alludes to his homeland's most gifted composer Antonio Carlos Jobim (they named the international airport in Rio after him!) - Walter includes the opening and closing notes of Jobim's most famous tune, Girl From Ipanema.
If I had to use just one word to describe the brilliance of a Walter Rodrigues Jr arrangement - it would be “coherence” - every note and chord segues into the next with an 'organic' perfection using deceptively simple chords that I call 'artless.' You watch and think, Heck I could play that! (Oh no you can't!) Like a melody by Richard Rodgers (my favorite composer whose tunes are instantly memorable the first time you hear them) you couldn't change a note to 'improve' on this arrangement even in some small way.
Sinatra once changed a note in a Gershwin melody and his friend, composer Alec (“I'll Be Around”) Wilder said Frank actually improved the tune. Yes, words can't convey the subtle wonder of a Walter Rodrigues' arrangement.
Doyle Dykes has a signature model of that Godin guitar. Hope they make a nylon string version with Walter's name on it: the least they could do, I say. On that note, I helped arrange Doyle's recent visit to Winnipeg in the company of Godin executives promoting his new signature model. Their three divisions, all based in Quebec, are now the largest exporter of quality guitars on planet earth. But you knew that, right? Thanks for being you, Walter Rodrigues Jr. The world would be a poorer place without your playing.

Wow! Thank you so much for your super kind words, Mark! I'm so glad to hear you enjoy my arrangements and am humbled with your comments. Thank you!
That's not how music works. Music is like the universe, it has no limits and goes on forever... so, as good as this piece is, yes, it can be improved upon.
@@jerrylanglois7892, so go ahead, indulge us...
@@cornelgherasim5684 Any piece of music can be enhanced innumerable ways... a different bass line, different chord substitutions, different phrasing of the melody line, syncopation of the meter... in other words there is no such thing as a '' perfect '' piece of music. Next time you're in the company of a real accomplished, professional musician ask him the same question.
Yes! Girl From Ipanema. And I was wondering why there is something else that is familiar but I couldn't point it out.
😀
One of a favorite Stevie wonder songs made even more warm and comforting by you, Walter! Amazing as always!
