It's always fun for me to work with Tommy Emmanuel. This instructional series was a delight to produce. We were very lucky to have access to the same camera equipment used for producing the "Center Stage" DVD and PBS special. Since that show was filmed over a three-day period, we cut these instructional videos during the day, in between shows. Tommy is not only an extraordinary composer and performer, he's a genuinely warm and humble human being. I'm honored to be his friend.
Just wanted to say thanks for your part in creating this fantastic DVD! I never thought I would get to spend this kind of quality time with one of my musical heroes. The audio is great and the style of presentation is very engaging. Sometimes meeting our heroes isn’t what we expect - sometimes it’s better.
Thanks for sharing all of your great and beautiful works! Honestly when i am listening this song It brings feelings and an imagenary picture like when you are just lying and chilling in the grass with your love on a beautiful sunny spring day!
Angelina? You daughter? Thats sweet!!!! No need to say anything about the song or what you do for all of us, souls don't need to write.... Just thaaaank you!
💐💐💐💐💐🎸🎼💓🕺💓 спасибо огромное за музыку,, спасибо, брат Томми!!! Храни Господь тебя, приятно посмотреть на твоё мастерство 💐💐💐 Приезжай в Улан-Удэ 🎸 Байкал рядом с нами, спасибо
I've been trying to get this song "presentable" for years. Now I see that I had been playing in the wrong tuning; I'd only been tuning the low E down a whole tone, not the A string as well. Time to get back to work!
Mate, I've been acquainted with guitars for almost as long as you - but the only thing my playing has in common with yours is that we both use a wooden instrument that has 6 strings. You are simply astonishing. Thank you for this, and all your videos and all your music. You have really redefined what is possible with this instrument - a yardstick for everyone who aspires to play guitar. One question - were you born with large hands?
mikebzmike A bit of insurance. You notice Tommy's ultra-sensitive to being in tune. Despite the best clamping mechanism, with tension/pull and playing, strings can stretch and move behind the capo putting them out of tune. Adding this extra clamp there pretty much eliminates that possibility.
Angels are singing around you tommy even if you cant see them, whomever the Lord assigned to you as gaurdian angels from birth are sure fortunate , im guessing youll be jamming with them in Heaven one day. See kat kerr revealing Heaven she saw elvis playing love me tender to Jesus in Heaven and she also saw whitney being rewarded for using her gift on earth to bless others
It just takes tons of practice. 57 years of practice and dedication in Tommy's case - I think that's how long he's been playing. It's something absurd like that.

Good luck, I believe in you

One question - were you born with large hands?
Are you related to World F1 champion before the II War or it's just a nick? :]
🎼😍

Tommy isn't playing the guitar, the guitar is being played by him.
You inspired me to buy a 6 string!
"im covering the top 2 strings with my thumb and another 2 strings with just a fat ass finger" - ah fk here we go
Nothing easier than that 😂
Almost as good as the bendy knuckle thing that renders Lewis and Clark nearly unplayable 🤪
any reason for the second capo? ( if it's not for easy switching between 2nd and 5th positions )
He explained in the video that it's used to help the guitar told it's tuning, then the capo on 4th fret is used to put the song up a tone.
ewaldred thanks for the reply. i did not watch the video entirely. My fault:)
Come back to Austin....
Amazing dude, From forbiden music Land😢😢😢
Interesting Capo you're using there.
Curious.... Why the 2nd capo at the 2nd fret?
Ah saw the other video of this.... It's for stability of the tuning... 👍
Might be for strings not to ring harmonics, etc.

He also uses capo's at different spots in some songs

I had to think about that Abm joke for a second...LOL
@Oded Hen A-flat minor = A flat miner
I wanna play like that

He would just say "then get to work!" Seriously though, it's called "playing" for a reason. IIRC he "plays" at least 5 hours a day though!
razzy marcus Keep dreaming.
@@Weeble_Warbles well I'm only 20 so 37 years to go
@@razzymarcus8044 I'm 36 and just started learning this year. So, there's a good chance I'll be dead by then. ;)
Beautiful , but I wish he didn't speak straight away , because that was special
A flat minor caught me off guard 😂
Always annoying when the g-string slips
Bastard! Wizard...
I've been playing for 25 years, hours every day and i still can't use a plectrum and feel comfortable while using it. Bloody annoying.
