The most beautiful guitarist of our generation, a young man with class and grace! There is much to learn from Joe beside his magnificent guitar skills; his humble and loving approach to life! God's Peace, Joe! Bobby
I could listen to this for hours on end. Absolutely inspirational. At the 3:00 mark I stopped doing what I was doing and looked at the screen....thought I was listening to Les Paul...you can certainly hear the influence. Paul was one of the most creative and influential guitarists, ever. No wonder so many, just like Joe Robinson, produce such memorable music.
Absolutely Brilliant. I've been attached to, studying, and striving to master my instrument ( Guitar ) since I was 13. I am almost 31 now... and it literally choked me up watching a guitar being played so beautifully. Even playing on a mandatory regular basis, month after month , year after year... it can sometimes become redundant if you let it.... and then you see or hear something inspirational like this. And it's something to aspire to in sound, style, form, and in talent. Changing your drive and focus even more for the betterment of your ever-developing skill with an instrument. I salute you sir. Great Job.
a ball buster ... thank goodness I'm not the enviable type :) amazing! Maybe Joe & Tommy went into the Outback to practice and make a Crossroad deal? :)
I can’t. But James Bartholomew is also an incredible player, a little different playing from Joe but equally clean and with the same dynamic controll and artistic touch. They are both my favorite players.
What a technique..did that just flew into the house the moment you were born on a hot day ..like a little bird looking for some refreshment..hahaha..this is amazing..What more can we expect? No seriously ..this is great ..can it get better??
The originality, musicality, and thousands of hours of devotion shines so bright on your version. This isn’t a song that I would typically listen to, but you’ve made it sound so beautiful and complex that it’s hard to not love. Thanks for sharing your talents, Joe! Can’t wait to see Tommy and you in Madison next month!
Joe, Wow. I didn't think I'd hear a version that I'd like as much or more than Tommy's last home recording, but man what a nice job. You're added a lot of maturity and feeling to the piece since I watched you play it live somewhere on youtube a couple three? years ago. The tempo change at 3:00 or so was surprising and I enjoyed it much. Chet said you always have to surprise your audience :). Really nice. It's going on the music stick. Thanks for posting it. best.
words can not express my gratitude !!! one of my favorite songs and Thank you so so much for your interpretation and arrangement!! much love your way!!
Wow, this young man is really good! Okay, not everyone can cover a Tommy Emmanuel tune. I was so fortunate to have worked with Odell Martin years ago. Thumb pickers are a whole different class of musician.
You've been given a gift that we appreciate and thank you for sharing! Although, there is evidence of styles of influence Chet, Tommy, et.al.) and of course, very hard work on your part, we recognize your own masterful ability, distinct originality and hunger for more.....thanks again Joe, you bring tears of joy and elation to an "old guitar picker"....Fingerpicker's really do rule the world;)
Like I guess many others I think you're going to be a worthy successor to Tommy Emmanuel - a truly inspiring and beautiful rendition with perfect harmonics :)
Wow , so amazing . You are definitely wired superbly. The Maton certainly is made to ring out so well , after you pull the harmonics out. How do you do the middle and next to it finger harmonics . Please break that down for us. That is so incredible. I thought Tommy was different than anyone…. Stay away from the pit falls he fell into. 320 one day concerts and coke are not the way. Cheers Alberta Dave 😊🇨🇦😊🇨🇦😊🇨🇦
I just love your style, Joe. I like how you stick close to the melody line without getting out there in obliteraty-land as some players do. Well done. My heart is happy.
Wow! I thought I had seen most of the super pickers on RUclips, and there are some really good ones. I guarantee you if Chet were looking down and watching you pick he would absolutely say (now there's one to be proud of).
Man, the up close, beautiful acoustic guitar tone takes me back to the thousands of hours I spent holding one in highschool...Thanks for sharing man. Really beautiful!
Nicely done! No - really! You introduced your own elements and refreshed the arrangement with some original movements and it was all so very inspiring!! Loving it from Dallas, Texas!!

Superlatives still don't give enough credit. There is so much soul, fun, expertise and emotion in your music. Absolutely love it Joe.
This gentleman is just amazing.

Simply Amazing.
I can’t understand the thumbs down 👎 on this awesome 6 string genius!!!
Just the most beautiful rendition of the song. Truly inspired playing. Thanks for sharing that.
If Joe can play so good, then why oh why caaaaaaann't i?!
Uchiha Kikaku One word sweetheart, Practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice,practice, practice?
Two words actually: Practice and talent.
Joe is one of the most talented fingerstyle guitarist in the world. Pure Tommy Emmanuel legacy.
Because your not joe! And neither am I.
playing chops is practice (infinite) ... writing melodies is talent .
a ball buster ... thank goodness I'm not the enviable type :) amazing! Maybe Joe & Tommy went into the Outback to practice and make a Crossroad deal? :)
Just came back to this old gem. Joe is the cleanest acoustic player out there. Prove me wrong.
I can’t. But James Bartholomew is also an incredible player, a little different playing from Joe but equally clean and with the same dynamic controll and artistic touch. They are both my favorite players.
What a technique..did that just flew into the house the moment you were born on a hot day ..like a little bird looking for some refreshment..hahaha..this is amazing..What more can we expect? No seriously ..this is great ..can it get better??
Thanks Joe... Keep doing it. Have fun in Annapolis. Wish I could be there.
Cheers Jon
Absolutely astounding! The way I might hope to play if I get to heaven one day.
Thanks so much Jon
OMG these harmonics. Perfect as always.
Thanks Camila! Took me a while to get those right..
