The bagpipes on guitar. Brilliant.
Very lovely and hypnotic. I pictured myself in a shire with a bunch of hobbits drinking Ale and dancing. Man it was beautiful thanks
Man I would give anything to see him live! What an inspirational musician. You know an artist is great when listening to them immediately makes you want to go grab your instrument.
Pipes on the guitar. Brother, you are amazing!!!
I saw him live with Alain Genty (frettless bass guitarist) In North Queensland Australia. I was living in a tent at the time in the bush. Best night ever. Bought 3 cd's and manage to learn a couple of his songs too. I still play them most days 17 years later. Btw this tuning is DAAEAE. Before seeing him live I'd learned to play one of his tunes in DADGAD but learned from him that it was indeed DAAEAE. Anyway still my favorite guitarist of all time.
Interesting tuning. I could se myself lamenting over how to make some of these tunes work in Dadgad too. Seemed like a safe bet but there you go!
Thank you for this!
I'm an OLD Guy and I have heard a lot of fine Pickers, but Tony is EXTRAORDINARY and Wonderfully Articulate, with an Excellent sense of Rythym. TEN big GOLDEN stars! Thanks for sharing this FINE Music
Tony is one of those guitar gods that can play with incredible complexity, but unlike many, his stuff is the kind of music you could just listen to for hours on end. He puts the actual music and feel before technique and flash.
Yes .. but Pierre Bensusan is THE best.
Plainly Equisite. Never thought Id ever hear the Pipes on Guitar.🍀🎵🍻
Love Irish/Scottish guitar and the way it captures that calm and peace, yet always has a bit of Irish/Scottish cultural sadness in the melodies. Just like life itself. It touches the soul...
"All their wars are merry ones and all their songs are sad."
I haven't had a guitar hero in many years but this man, his gentle humor and exquisite playing may fill the bill, at least for a while.
Met this guy briefly after a gig in Southampton, UK, in (I think) 2011. I'd never heard of him before (I'd gone to see Andy McKee, who was the headliner). As well as being a stunning player, he's a proper gent. I recently rediscovered the CD I purchased at the gig, which had inexplicably gone walkabout. I don't think it's left the CD player in my car since.
is One sure benefit of getting old, we get something new something that trips our switch, if we just look, and the tapestry that adds too...I will be forever grateful for the time I have lived...immaculate, still.
I could listen to Tony strum that thing all day... mesmerizing.
For some reason I will never understand, camera operators who film guitarists seem to universally believe that all their attention should be focused on the player's fretting hand. For those of us who play this difficult instrument, it might be nice once in a while for them to maybe adopt a position where there was not a microphone directly in front of the other hand! If you play, you know that's where the magic happens. I guess there's something about watching a player's fretting hand that seems hypnotic for some. For me, I really wish they would at least attempt to acknowledge once in a while that most guitarists do indeed have TWO hands and we'd like to learn from observation. Tony is just amazing.
The Lament for the Viscount of Dundee is one of the sweetest melodies of the Piobaireachd canon and McManus' interpretation is really excellent. Top class musician. I hope to get the chance to see him live some day.
that audience drone ,reminded me of the great pyramid baffles,love a good drone :)
Wonderful! This is the only kind of "meditation" I could listen to, all day long, as said below..
That PRS is gorgeous and you make it sing.
Huge respect.
Luv and Peace.
I recorded a similar but much less skilled piece in DADGAD a few years ago. It's amazing how the rhythm is much more important than hitting all the notes your were shooting for.
In my experience if you can hold down the basic Idea people will fill in the mistakes.
I can play that piece live but it is sketchy but if I dig in and project it and make maybe 80% of the notes they get the vibe.
Luv and Peace.
An amazing talent and a great bloke with a wry sense of humour. Met him when I was touring the festivals in Australia.
Saw Tony last nite in Elora, Ontario. He lives there. He's just brilliant. Bought 5 CD's
I'd love to go to his annual workshop in Elora.....He's invited me to go to that one and his N. Californa workshop in Healdburg....He's a terrific person and his playing is beyond the scope of human comprehension! His ability to play triplets with his thumb ONLY is truly remarkable....
@@danielmccarville9159 He plays the triplets only with his thumb? How the heck? I look at his right hand, and I don't understand how he gets those sounds!
That's amazing. I did not know he was in Elora.
Oh my! What lovely music and what a lovely man. It does me soul good to hear it it does.
Exquisite Tony, thank you very much.
Never before listened a Pibroc’h with guitar…AMAZING
Outstanding craftmanship and heart. Truly outstanding
What could be more explosive for your ego than to have Paul Reed Smith build such an awesome guitar personally for you??
Having met Paul numerous times, I can say that I'm not surprised in the least he'd do something like this. Eccentric as hell, but when he likes you- he likes you a lot. I'd be supremely honored to have a guitar built personally for me by him.
First time I have heard you. Wow - no words! I must keep my ears open for your next maritime tour. Im old enough to fondly remember John Allan Cameron playing similar tunes on his 12 string
Me too! John Allan was a good friend....I was honoured to play at his funeral.
@@mcmanustony Oh I could see where you would be friends. Your music and humour are well matched. What a honour it is to play at a friends funeral. I have found the song forever becomes their song.
When I first started playing I sang a number of JohnAlan’s songs to much later find out they were John Prine’s songs. He was such an enjoyable entertainer!
soooooooooo great thanks
Lovely player and a great bloke!
The sleeping tune and Shallow brown are 2 of the best ones i heard from him.
Scots wahey.
Luv and Peace.
I knew a talented Peabroach Bagpipe player from growing up in Dundee.
He'd won national competitions in the late 80s.
BRAVO!!!!!!! Very impressed.
Hey -- Tony's right hand is potent !! He's put some work in on that !! Thanks -- JB
Fantastic sound ...love this .
oh, thats very beautiful !
That was cool !!!
Thanks for sharing.
Wish I had the tab for this. Tony!! Guess I'l have to watch carefully. I have Seagull and Breizh pretty close (can't get Duck [sigh]) so I'm glad I found this video! LOVE this song!
I would give my left nut to buy tab for this and his other tunes.
I came across this vid today Tony... very nice tune :-)
myself included, he is one of several audacious fingers style iprasario virtuoso performance greater than all and still pleasure ably humble and prolific,
Best Sounding Guitar
love this!
a great artist - so impressive, ancient music and full of vigour - well done!
Great! Love it!
So great!
good quality video and truly excellent playing - thanks for posting
I had always read and been told that Country music was derivative of Irish and Scottish traditional music styles that were taken to the U.S. by immigrants in the mid to late 1800's and early 1900's. I had heard some things before that made me feel that there was possibly a connection but it was never concrete for me. I didn't deny it, I just couldn't see the evolution. However, this was amazing. I could really hear where these traditional styles contributed to modern Country style in this song. Well, more like bluegrass perhaps. Nevertheless, bluegrass is what birthed modern country. This is definitely what led to bluegrass.
Hope you come back to Canada now that I have found you!
I live here!
Woah now!
Bravo!
Ah oui quand même, bravo!
"The Viscount" was one of my 6 tunes in the open. Tony has a puredeadbrilliant interpretation. His light music is spot on as well. Go to his interpretation of Gordon's "The Sleeping Tune."
Excellent :)
Pure amazing,I've his albums
Lavish!
WOW
Le Maître!!
dude just did a wakeandbake with this video dddduuuuuuuuddddddeeeeeee another level bro
Great man
Song starts at 2:53
What a monster...
Did he actually played the bagpipe on guitar… that was great!!!
Yup. He's self-taught, so he didn't know you can't do that! (I used to play pipes a bit, so I understand the ornamentation and am amazed he can emulate it on guitar.)
silver_ surfer14 ii
“Hum this note” lol
Richard Thomson 50 yrs ago, just not as well.
great Andy Renwick´s ferret
I love this style of guitar..... also it sounds like midwest emo XD
Almost too fast the end there... melody is subtly compromised. But he's a true and wondrous master and I love it!
I agree....you got me!
@@mcmanustony LOL. I'd like to hear his version. Have a feeling it'd be much more "compromised".
@@jeffcuthbert6078 His point is fair. I accelerated too much into the second reel- Andy Renwick's Ferret and the last tune was way to fast and suffered as a result. This might have been the encore.....maybe I wanted to get to the bar. :-)
Nice pickin'!
Just a head's up: It's 3 minutes in before he starts playing.
But not a waste of time
Russell Johnson Nothin' gets past the Professor!
I enjoy listening to him talking though. Wonderful person
Music starts at 2:50
At 6.29 it gets interesting !
Could someone make a list of all tunes played complete with timecodes? that'd be very nice
See my replies to Chris Hill.
Wonder about same lick on a mandolin...
Marvellous...I'm guessing he's playing in DADGAD?
thinkin' it's actually DAAEAE using capo ........puts it in a Bb thingy
It could be Orkney tuning... CGDGCD
The section from 4:48 to 6:15 is some of the most beautiful music I have heard. Is there a name for it or is it just part of Piebroch?
You're absolutely right about that, it's one of my favorite pieces of music ever. It's called Dr. MacPhail's Reel. You can listen to another well-recorded version here, starting at 2:13 ua-cam.com/video/hwkjt9CE2ys/v-deo.html
@@iannelli2448 thank you!!
piobaireachd*
Now add some banjo !
Is anyone able to tell me the name of the second tune starting around 4:45, please?
It's Doctor Macphail's Reel by Andrew Bain. It can be found in the John MacFadyen collection of pipe tunes. Obviously not the guitar arrangement.
weeneeps Thank you very much! Much appreciated.
how about the one 6 somewhat minutes? or does it still belong to the prior?
6:18 he goes into a very quick version of "the devil in the kitchen", usually a strathspey. 7min is "Andy Renwick's Ferret" by Gordon Duncan. The last one, 8min, is a jig which I can play but don't know the name of.
Ever wonder why someone had to go invent* virtuoso when we already had words like 'good' and even 'very good', and wouldn't stop at 'excellent'!
How are you, Tony?
Just fine.
..how? XD
Anyone know if this is in dadgad?
DAAEAE
This is very nice once he stops rambling and blabbing and plays ... beautiful!
Starts at 2:50. Too much talk. Tony needs no talk. He's a maestro.
this is also the americ anfootball tuning lol
Thats an 8400 GBP guitar right there ...
and a 1.000,000 GBP player
@@michaelbaker6203 Maybe he'll accept a checque
Total bargain compared to a pre-war Martin museum-piece, or a L-series Yamaha for that matter..
Actually it's spelled "piobaireachd" but pronounced as "pea-brock". Close though!
I swear the Celts must have invented whisky before their written language lolol
Pibroch
what kind of tuning is this?
DAAEAE with a capo on the first fret.
it sounds amazing :)
JUst sayin': it's a pibroch, not a piebroch. That would be a broch which serves pies.
.
not bad, but whoever cut this video could have started it around 3 minutes in. For the first 2:45 it's just him tuning and yammering. Once he finally settles in to play its nice though.
Seems to be more about guitar playing than music.
Huh?
@Bobby Allen Right? His comment is very strange, indeed.
My point was that this performance is distractingly complex. It seems more of a demonstration of technical skill than artistic expression. Too many notes.
@@davidhust2123 David Hust This comment is distractingly complex. It seems more of a demonstration of subjective dislike than genuine criticism. Too many words. Seriously, though, Tony McManus is a fantastic interpreter, and not just on a technical level. It comes across in his playing how much he knows and loves these tunes. I get that his playing might not be your cup of tea, but implying that it is not a genuine demonstration of artistic expression is ludicrous.
Trunchisholm
Distractingly complex? My comment is pretty straightforward, I thought.
Does anyone know what guitar he is playing ?
prs, his own signature model i think
Paul Reed Smith model built for him. I believe Martin Simpson also plays a PRS
Horrible, do you have any music on your channel.
I hear a whole lots of notes, but can't recognize any rhythm or melody.
?? You can listen his version of "goodbye Pork Pie Hat"" Amazing…
So what?
Extremely boring and especially aggravating when timing starts to completely collapse @ around 7:00. Sheesh, bring a metronome if you're gonna play reels.
So true, finally someone daring to say the emperor has no clothes.
2:53 skip the 400 rounds of re-tuning and idle banter...
he is a great player, sure wish he could get his guitars in tune though...no offense to anyone.. just kind of important..
What are you on about, they’re in relative tune
I'm afraid I much prefer the sound of his guitar to that of his voice, I wish he did too.
2:50 - stops talking and plays
Too much talking!
Your very good but I wish you would stop talking and tuning and just play. I'm pretty sure that's intentional so I can't make a recording of it.
