World is strange. 8 months after you uploaded this song, I got my first cat. Just a small little furball I rescued from the streets that grew so close to me. Fast forward eleven years. Exactly 8 days before this vid reached its 12th anniversary, I found her lying dead in the kitchen. On this day, this song was in my recommended videos and I dearly remembered everything from the first day, like a flashback. This cat was like a daughter to me and this song resembles her somehow. The love and peace she gave me, every moment she made precious. All is in this song and I come back to it from time to time. Thank you Thomas!
Thomas, At 81 years old I have just discovered the instrument you are playing here. I love the sound of it, and you are the only guy I have heard play it that can bring out the best in it. You are on my favorite list forever and why don't you put out a couple of music videos. I'd be a buyer for sure. George
@@thomlev5217 He was great, I especially love his first recording which I've listened to over 100 times (he brought me back to the Holy Bible). But he didn't play this type of guitar, although he played with others who did. Thomas Oliver and Jacob Raagaard are my two favorite Weissenborn players, although they both play regular guitar and lap slide etc. too. I actually know little about either, other than they are Maestro level musicians, and I LOVE their musical sharing of their inner heartfelt love.
Then make it so now, my brother! I've got about a year left before the Cancer takes me and it's the most freedom I've ever had. It's never too late to be happy...
that is the most beautiful music i have heard in a longtime, my friend. and i am a musician and i hear music all the time. very skilled, well arranged and beautifully performed. thank you for sharing. your gift and this video.
This is the kind of music where you just grab yourself a drink, sit down in your comfy chair, and, relax. Its beautiful. Well done, Thomas. Take a bow.
ha, never ceases to amaze me, half the time i listen to this it brings up memories, and i find myself crying. the other times, i find myself just drifting off. real quality. thank you for bringing this to the world.
I just picked me up a wessonborne and just ran across your video. What an inspiration you are. That's definitely from the heart & soul. I'll be listening to you for more tips. Thanks, 🙏
I think what makes this so honest is the way it's recorded -you can hear all the string noise - the bar on the strings during vibrato, etc. That stuff almost always gets nuked in production. Good job T. Oliver !
Woke early before the sunrise and drank a good cup of coffee and drank deep in my soul with this slide guitar somehow straightened out my mind thank you
I saw this comment back in 2016… 6 years almost 7…. This is the reason how i discovered the song slow dancing in a burning room and learned in how to play on guitar… time flies… read this comment back in sophomore highschool… now im almost 2 yrs in the military lol….
Thank you for sharing your musical blessings with the world. You have enriched the human experience. May you and your music reach the hearts of the people who are needing peace, inspiration and purpose. You have given this to me. I wish you a long and full life.
This is soooo beautiful! 😊 I'm scratching my head though as to how on earth this could possibly get a thumbs down from 62 people...jealous maybe?! 😏 A million thumbs up from me! 👍
The feel of this music is just unbelievably peaceful... If anyone has a playlist with a similar vibe... I would absolutlty love to find more stuff like this.
This is fantastic playing and very soothing to listen to. I like that is is slow and stays in a dreamy, outer worldly state. The tune down in the middle is genius level.
If there was ever a video that deserved 100% likes, it'd be this one. It's helped me sleep on numerous occasions and it's just so beautiful to listen to. Thanks, man.
Thank you Maestro Oliver! Impeccable musicianship, beautiful piece! As usual (for me) emotionally stirring! Often I find myself transfixed by the subtle harmonics and bluesy, soulful soloing lines! Thanks so much!

Jacob raugaard !! Look him up
Ben Harper first album is full of that style. Highly recomended
Kelly joe phelps of course the best

Man, I hope you’re still here at 92.
This makes me nostalgic for a time in my life that never existed

That tuning down & back up is a power move. Awesome.
more than perfect. Just like a dream..
Makes me love this life.
This fills me with a sense of peace I can never seem to find on my own...
I have the same, i come back sometimes in the evening just to have peace.
It reminds me of a song you never heard you instantly know by heart.. Old soul second sight stuff

Listening to this beautiful and well played song is making me melt. Thanks for the great music, Thomas!

I have 1 of your albums. Love your music!!!!!!

Fantastic Thomas. The music is amazing and your performance just awesome. You're great..., thank you so much for sharing your beautiful talent.
the starting riff sounds like dancing in a slow burning room by john mayer or whatever its called, great performance! love it

It is “People Get Ready” by Curtis Mayfield
What a wonderful piece of music! This would be the song I would listen to as I drive up to heaven!
Can't wait to see him live tonight!
One word : BEAUTIFUL !
Thank you for sharing your musical blessings with the world. You have enriched the human experience. May you and your music reach the hearts of the people who are needing peace, inspiration and purpose.
You have given this to me. I wish you a long and full life.
This is one of the most beautiful and inspirational pieces of music I have ever heard.
MASTERFUL playing and a fantastic song. A RELIEF from the heavy blues stuff thats played so often using this instrument.
I've played guitar for 14 years and you inspired me to start playing slide. i just finished learning this song. beautiful man. beautiful. Thank you.
Beautiful, you play with so much soul and feeling. Wow!
Chimes are top notch, and de-tuning that top string is soooo cool :-)
stumbled across your acoustic set at sziget in budapest and loved it. we laid down and escaped the madness of the festival for an incredible hour
This is soooo beautiful! 😊
I'm scratching my head though as to how on earth this could possibly get a thumbs down from 62 people...jealous maybe?! 😏
A million thumbs up from me! 👍
I love the use of the harmonics with this simple (but beautiful) melody line.
love this song. the moment - and living in it.
What a sweet tune ！
what a work of art and playing God bless musicians....
just watched Thomas and his band live for the third time, and he (they) never ceases to amaze me. and this is insanely beautiful!
Man this is amazing! Listening years later
Dude has a gift for sure
There's a warmth to the instrument and the style (and of course, the performance) that can't be duplicated elsewhere. Beautiful.
This just takes me to another place. It's beautiful.
The feel of this music is just unbelievably peaceful... If anyone has a playlist with a similar vibe... I would absolutlty love to find more stuff like this.
This is fantastic playing and very soothing to listen to. I like that is is slow and stays in a dreamy, outer worldly state. The tune down in the middle is genius level.
Beautiful…
Thank you for the cool vibe! I'm feeling good now :)
Mean Thomas - unreal brada!
Beautifull, cann't get enough of it.
If there was ever a video that deserved 100% likes, it'd be this one. It's helped me sleep on numerous occasions and it's just so beautiful to listen to. Thanks, man.
Awesome stuff!! This reminds me of Slow Dancing in a Burning Room by John Mayer,even played in the same C# key.Thanks for posting!
agree
Wow! Great playing! - How can you not like this? I just wonder.....
if someone was to tell me i was dying..... and this was playing behind them.... i would embrace it
Eric Bowers so glad you commented on this, so now I can come back and listen again. Still deep... god man
