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!
Every time i navigate back to your music i am in awe. Your playing is so beautiful, with so much feeling. Thank You!
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
Jacob raugaard !! Look him up
Ben Harper first album is full of that style. Highly recomended
Kelly joe phelps of course the best
@@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.
This makes me nostalgic for a time in my life that never existed
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...
@@GuitarUniverse2013 I was so impressed by your comment. Thank you for sharing this, and I wish you the happiest days ever. Thank you again!!

That tuning down & back up is a power move. Awesome.
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.
more than perfect. Just like a dream..
Makes me love this life.
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.
Listening to this beautiful and well played song is making me melt. Thanks for the great music, Thomas!
It reminds me of a song you never heard you instantly know by heart.. Old soul second sight stuff
Yes
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.
Nice version of " People get ready " Curtis Mayfield . Great playing !
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.
Fantastic Thomas. The music is amazing and your performance just awesome. You're great..., thank you so much for sharing your beautiful talent.
This is one of the most beautiful and inspirational pieces of music I have ever heard.
I could listen to this 24 hours a day.
Katy Mantyk me too! Sounds awesome!☺
Right there with you...lil' dolly
I think I did! Data low, battery low!
@@Ogi1508 lol what this even mean? haha
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,
🙏
Listen three times in a row, what a tone
This is really one of the best solos i've ever heard. Thank you from Italy.
That is as warm and beautiful as it gets!
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 !
Absolutely beautiful, your playing 🎸🎸👍
Never heard this song before. But it brought tears to my eyes.
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
There's a warmth to the instrument and the style (and of course, the performance) that can't be duplicated elsewhere. Beautiful.
just watched Thomas and his band live for the third time, and he (they) never ceases to amaze me. and this is insanely beautiful!
I love the use of the harmonics with this simple (but beautiful) melody line.
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
here's another reminder to come back to listen :D
Weissenborn Guitar
You’re dying
what a work of art and playing God bless musicians....
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.
What a wonderful piece of music! This would be the song I would listen to as I drive up to heaven!
MASTERFUL playing and a fantastic song. A RELIEF from the heavy blues stuff thats played so often using this instrument.
Beautiful, you play with so much soul and feeling. Wow!
This has saved my life on so many different occasions. Thank you so much for this!!
Ever i hear this it let me remind me of the good things that happend in my live so far
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 starting riff sounds like dancing in a slow burning room by john mayer or whatever its called, great performance! love it
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….
It is “People Get Ready” by Curtis Mayfield
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 just takes me to another place. It's beautiful.
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!
Wow. He has such a great way about his playing. He makes it look so effortless.
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.
Done with feeling. it's almost like I can hear the story behind the song being told through the Guitar.
Now that's music......BEAUTIFUL....
Absolutely beautiful, stunning. Thank you Thomas
love this song. the moment - and living in it.
What a great sound, love the Weissenborn, quite magical - Thank you Thomas, you made my
day.
This reminds me of when we were free and could go out for drinks and talk... Seems like centuries ago!
One word : BEAUTIFUL !
Beautifully played...love your music.
Riding a horse through the desert sunset is what this sounds like
What a beautiful instrument , and so beautifully played.
Chimes are top notch, and de-tuning that top string is soooo cool :-)
What a sweet tune ！
Can't wait to see him live tonight!
Nicely done! Just purchased a copy!
So smooth and soothing...just beautiful!
Absolutely gorgeous. We enjoyed it so much!❤️😊👍

Beautifull, cann't get enough of it.
Man this is amazing! Listening years later

Beautiful song and technically the harmonic and retuning moments are great. Thank you, Thomas! Beautiful Weis indeed, Tony!
