Tommy is just so full of energy. He is feeling the music at all times and not afraid to show it. While Richard is so reserved....they fit well together.
@@PreservationEnthusiast yeah, how dare he be energetic and exuberant and love what he does. Real musicians sit in earnest silence and don't draw attention to themselves.
I know I'm getting old because this sounds so good to me, these guys are incredible and never even heard of this Richard Smith guy, he is a talented man.
Richard Smith and Tommy Emmanuel are the two bets guitarists in the world.What an absolute pleasure and honor to listen to these virtuosos. Unreal, these men aren't human.
Well, there's this great stuff, contrasted with what passes for 'music' nowadays... It's a true pleasure to hear terrific musicians playing amazing music. Very grateful.
Tommy Emmanuel, the cheeky bastard, almost slides off his chair trying to bang off those high notes,... way to show off, geez, leave some talent for the rest of us mere mortals
@@ebenclukey7293 I enjoy Richard a lot more, tommy is skilled but not better, just more show off. And for me the wisdom of put the music first is the most important part of the artist.
Well, I don't know what a guitar player is supposed to look like, but man-o-man, if I'm standing in line with Richard Smith at the grocery store, the last thing on my mind would be to think he's a guitar player. DMV maybe, but not a guitar player. Just goes to show one can never judge a book by its cover. He's one of the best guitarist on the planet. Period.
@ron dadoo I'm not sure if councelling might help you Ron, I suggest heartful meditation as a way to see things more clearly or at least a little less clouded.
Love the way Jim quoted the melody of 'Fascinating Rhythm' at 1:56 & then a lil bit of 'Mexican Hat Dance' ..very clever.He quotes another well known song too right at the end of His solo 2:26 (Tommy laughs)it maybe a Shirley Temple tune but I can't think of its name ?.this is outstanding !
This seem based in melody, harmony, and progression. Rap is predominately rhythm oriented. They seemingly are at opposite ends of the music spectrum. I play the drums and love rhythm, but I MUST have many elements including melody, tonal progression, syncopation and rhythm working in concert to please my ear.
Richard Smith is the ultimate master guitarist
Decades of talent…right into my feel good folder
Tommy is just so full of energy. He is feeling the music at all times and not afraid to show it. While Richard is so reserved....they fit well together.
Tommy is such a show off, it's all about him! While Richard plays it like it is.
@@PreservationEnthusiast yeah, how dare he be energetic and exuberant and love what he does. Real musicians sit in earnest silence and don't draw attention to themselves.
@@cocolossal69 Richard is a real musician but much more muted. Tommy is also a real musician but a real showman (show off).
@@PreservationEnthusiast so, they're both real musicians. Awesome musicians. But... nobody likes a show off, eh?
@@cocolossal69 Tommy is a likeable show off. And also debatbly a better overall player than Richard.
My brain forgot about everything else and just concentrated on that. A nice little break from all the chaos.
Thank you.
Tommy’s solo was just superhuman! Awesome! 👏
I know I'm getting old because this sounds so good to me, these guys are incredible and never even heard of this Richard Smith guy, he is a talented man.
I'm 18 ! It sounds better than anything to me
Nevaxlux Nene same here

Takes lsd once
@@lenny3804 the breakthrough experience.
Cheers!
I love Tommy’s music. I can’t stop smiling. Even after it’s done.
This is the past, present and future of jazz guitar. Magnificent.
Richard Smith and Tommy Emmanuel are the two bets guitarists in the world.What an absolute pleasure and honor to listen to these virtuosos. Unreal, these men aren't human.
The dude on the right is Richard Smith and yep he can sure play.
Incredible. They play jazz like real jazzmen.
To be there watching and feeling the flow must have been ace
It don't get no better than that !
Sweet Jesus just look at Tommy. He is truly a person who can speak through a guitar
Well, there's this great stuff, contrasted with what passes for 'music' nowadays...
It's a true pleasure to hear terrific musicians playing amazing music. Very grateful.
So very true
With some genuine skill vs mixing boards and computer controlled sound!
D.B.: I don't doubt the mixing, as I do some of that myself.
I don't know what you mean by 'computer controlled'. Recorded? Enhanced?
Purely magical.
That is REAL guitar playing !!!
Love these guys together!
could listen to this all day! :)
That was terrific!!!
This changes my mood. How powerful energy this music have!
Tommy Emmanuel, the cheeky bastard, almost slides off his chair trying to bang off those high notes,... way to show off, geez, leave some talent for the rest of us mere mortals
You can definetely his his struggle to sit still while playing.
Wow, real humans with insane talent playing their hearts out in today’s age. A very rare thing indeed.
Youth aren’t interested in real music; if the iPhone isn’t producing it via an App😀
My sincere gratitude for sharing that!
Sublime! Love seeing guitarists just in the zone making beautiful music
soooooo cooooooooool Thanks for sharing!
Watching the best just having fun.
they are equally talented
Richard's amazing but no human has ever been as skilled as Tommy Emmanuel.
@@ebenclukey7293 I enjoy Richard a lot more, tommy is skilled but not better, just more show off. And for me the wisdom of put the music first is the most important part of the artist.
@@OsvaldoBayerista I like them both but in a skills contest Tommy wins.
Awesome walking basslines Jim
Absolutely!
meravigliosamente bello!! Adoro tantissimo questo brano!!
fantastico, parabéns pelo enorme talento, um dia quem sabe chego a este nível
My favorite Tommy stuff is his swing.
Richard is awesome
OMG, my head just split open. There's so much "monster" great playing here.
The dude on the far right playing with no mic or pickup is a total beast with a deliciously aggressive attack to his playing.
Could be a trick of the light and all, but there's a lead sticking out of his guitar, just fyi :D
Richard Smith. He’s got a right thumb like a metronome.
Great players awesome pickers !!!!!!🎸🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Tommy Emmanuel looked like he was having so much fun 😃
And Jim Nichols, one of my favorite guitarists is no slouch that's for sure. I like it that he doesn't have so much Reverb/Echo on this one.
The way Tommy casually tuned his g string half way through and kept in with the song that's a sign of a true master
No He was just hanging His thumb pick on the E string .
Trust me that was one of the easiest things that he did!
Da gusto escuchar a estos tres magníficos maestros de la guitarra. Uuuf
I have no words!
WTF, that lick Richard Smith plays at the end is nasty.
that's a C 6/9
@@Suire1000 that little lick before the last chord
OMG BRILLIANT!!
Bravo!
This Video IS SIIIIIIIICK, Good performance!
Amazing. Congrats for this beautiful performance.
Yeah guys! Sweet tones! Expression!
This is cool
Man, guitar heaven right here on earth! This is amazing! Thanks for sharing it with us!
It is just so good.
このおっちゃんたちパないながちで。
そんでもって絡みも好き
Richard Smith, if. They are to ever add another CGP he should be on the short list.
Couldn't agree more. I think he's already earned it. I believe Tommy is the most skillful guitarist who's ever been.
Actually Richard Smith is a CGP from Chet Atkins himself. He was a child prodigy that Chet first played with at the old age of 11in England.
Janel Wagner but I don’t think Chet ever actually named him CGP, did he? Should have, indeed.
Can someone please give that lady a pair of drums! What a jam!
Those who gave thumbs down clearly can't be saved from their horrible depression
🤣✌️👍
Nice way to say "morons"
半端ねー🤪👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I saw Rich not knowing who he was. OMG, my jaw was on the floor the entire time. And we became friends.
Hit it perfectly
Cool!
Check out his wife ( the lady with the fan) one hell of a good cello player !

Last thing you mentioned sounds like 'Stranger in Paradise' from Kismet.
Stranger in Paradise.
Incrível, soa muito bem aos ouvidos 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks for sharing!
Very very very good man
Fantastic guys. Tommy, get back to Vancouver BC for a show some time, please!!!!!
hahaha, the dad joke: my G string's slipping!
Wonderful.
absolutely filthy first solo and ending by Richard Smith (i think thats the guy on the right's name)
Yep
They've got everyone moving in that room!
That's the stuff alright
Amasing...
The guy on the right looks like he's been sitting there for the last 30 years xD
Damn thats cool Jims walkig bass line rhythm is way cool
Goddamn, that was good.
very nice from thailand
My only comment........Oh My, Fantastic!
I often listen to this in my car.
I like the solo of Smith and that blue note at 1.39.
Remember the song Nashville Cats? Perfect example.
Amazing
Браво!
in the groove
Estupendos Magnificos Dioses de la guitarra
Awesome...!
Great notes
Cooooooool.
Sounds cool!
The best!
Bravo x 3!!!
Magic
No need for any bass players here. The way Richard and Jim trade the bass lines is incredible.
Só eu que percebo eles batendo o pé juntinho kkkk
music man's humor
Nice!
These guys missed out in life on thousands and thousands of hours of reality TV and video gaming! So sad!
2 were famous..
brassbando 😊 And it shows!!
wanting something for others they may not for themselves, should not be envied
@@davesmurf6693 He was joking you Spoon.
Funny!
Tabs???
😂 😂 😂
Like they'd help
Fucking amazing
WoW
this is just like rap
yep almost note for note ;-)
😒
Except that this is music and rap is not...
^ Theres the guy. XD Its totally rap, brother.

Look at how they stoml their right foot while playing their guitars.
kirby march barcena On my video it’s their left foot.
Angels are on the heaven.................😏
Speaking of "stompin"...that left leg.
