After all those years, i've been listening to this tune. It's still one of the best fingerstyle compositions I know. Anytime when i come back to listen..after years.. it picks me up....
Havn't listened to this in a while Todd...I forgot how simply beautiful and awesome it is. You have a gift my friend. Hope all is well with you....Namaste......Dale
wow! Todd? You made it to Candyrat? This tune alone should have done it!! It is still in my top 5 favorites of all time and that includes all Candyraters and all of my own DADGAD material. Its pure genious and makes the soul smile every time its heard! Congrats!
the song is filled with clarity and the suttleness of the rhythm is very calming. This song has this effect where things suddenly become clear. BTW: I saw your text advert in don ross's video page. So just saying..it is working :D
I would very much like an example of this one and the other one too if possible. If you got more songs i would like those too. I really like your tunes!
Oh wow. I totally got goosebumps. I actually just got a capo today too :). Though I have no talent. You do a spectacular job playing your instrument there :). Truly an inspiration to the less talented like myself ;).
Very peaceful and calm piece - just lovely. I agree with Fred on his points on style, however I also thought there was some Celtic sounds. Very talented though, I wish I could play guitar like that, but I'm mediocre at best, with a few more moves on the piano though.. :) Best regards, Jakob
really, really love your music...it is just magic! Have you recorded other than youtube? I would love to be able to listen to you all day long!

Hi there. I´ve juts discovered this man today afetr hearing Bensusamn over there. I casually have got the same guitar, same model of Takamine. I am trying to have same feeling and taste on playing it than Todd. It´s great music, tecnique as well as ideas! I will keep on touch with the music of this guy.
Todd , I am making a video filmed from the front of my motorcycle while speeding thru the mtn twisties of the Blue Ridge Mnts, It's grace and nature in motion..I would love to put this tune of yours to the visuals?
I finally found you! I heard this song years ago but i didnt know your name and then i saw you on Candyrat!!!! Are there any tabs for this song available? I'd purchase them ofcourse.
Yeah it is probably for the best for me aswell. I've played guitar a couple of years but by ear (so far) ive only managed to learn rock/blues songs on my electric. But it would be great practice!
Thanks for your comments, Rob! Definitely a lot of Pierre Bensusan in the acoustic compositions. I was also listening to Gordon Giltrap when I was younger.
It says in the comment to the video actually - DADGAD. You can also tell from the intro if you listen carefully. :) Personally, if I could get it on mp3, I'd be a happy man, free of charge or through purchase, either way, I'd be interested in one ^^. - Jakob
this is some pretty gamn fine guitar playing and you're handsome too all the other groovy guitarists i've seen are old and unattractive... not that i respect them any less
Blissful Todd, 16 years later in a heatwave here in Thailand and it still feels like a fresh breeze. Thank you very much.

This piece can stop global warming..amazing.

One of the most beautiful originals in youtube. May I ask what model your Takamine is? I am starting to change my (bad)opinion about takamines.
really, really love your music...it is just magic! Have you recorded other than youtube? I would love to be able to listen to you all day long!
Hi there. I´ve juts discovered this man today afetr hearing Bensusamn over there. I casually have got the same guitar, same model of Takamine.

nice guitar haha takamine rocks the world
I finally found you! I heard this song years ago but i didnt know your name and then i saw you on Candyrat!!!! Are there any tabs for this song available? I'd purchase them ofcourse.
Hey Benjamin - thanks for the message! Sorry no tabs available. All I can recommend is figuring out the piece by ear and using the video as reference?
Yeah it is probably for the best for me aswell. I've played guitar a couple of years but by ear (so far) ive only managed to learn rock/blues songs on my electric. But it would be great practice!
wow
Hi Todd, wanted to ask what other artists influence your playing? God bless you.
Thanks for your comments, Rob! Definitely a lot of Pierre Bensusan in the acoustic compositions. I was also listening to Gordon Giltrap when I was younger.
It says in the comment to the video actually - DADGAD. You can also tell from the intro if you listen carefully. :) Personally, if I could get it on mp3, I'd be a happy man, free of charge or through purchase, either way, I'd be interested in one ^^.

I love Todd Bakers music👀😅
In fact, it's not exactly DADGAD.
It's C#G#C#F#G#C#, half tone below by DADGAD.
what takamine do you use?
Lowden O32c as you can see in other videos ;-)
this is some pretty gamn fine guitar playing
and you're handsome too
all the other groovy guitarists i've seen are old and unattractive...
not that i respect them any less
