Richard Smith is clearly one of the world's greatest living guitar players. The level of artistry this guy demonstrates is simply stunning. His stuff is both mind blow blowing and musical at the same time. If the world was fair, this guy would be a big star.
tbf, joe pass wouldn’t get much attention if he were prime today. way of flat third world we all now live in
Richard is a Master player. It seems like Norm knows everybody in the music business. Always great stories.
Norm has been doing his thing for many years. He’s known and well respected by many!
Richard Smith is just amazing!
I can't believe I didn't know about this Richard Smith guy. Now I'm watching a lot of videos of him. Incredibly talented, one of the greatest living guitarists imo.
This man is a beast of a player....no shredder beats this style of playing.....
Richard Smith is an unbelievable talent!
Richard is an incredible musician and a true master of the guitar!
Richard Smith is indeed, one of the best guitarists.👍👍🇨🇦
For sure 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸😊😊👌👍
Amazing guitar player for sure Richard is a true musician!! Mesmerizing song that he just played!
that right there is one of the best players on earth regardless of genre....MONSTAHHHHHH
Man's a legend💯🏴
Incredible.
His left hand is like a high speed precision vice - no smearing on the strings whatsoever.
Edit: AND he loves the West - went through
AZ, NEV, UT, COL und NM, meaning Zion, Capitol Reef, Arches, Canyonlands, Mesa Verde, Monument Valley, Sedona und Grand Canyon in Sept. myself. There is nothing better than deserts and mesas. Richard Smith is the man - greetz from Germany.
Great player and nice man. My wife and I saw him this month, in Sacramento and he was fantastic. Has to be one of the best musicians that ever picked up a guitar.
He's a true maestro and a gentleman!
So much better than shredding.
I agree totally:)
Yes
Yep after a very short time shredding loses whatever appeal it ever had
As someone who does listen to shred also, I can say that Yngwie, Paul Gilbert simple scale pattern stuff is definitely a phase that we grow out of but jazz style “shredding” (just fast playing) where there’s a lot of note choice and melody within the fast playing is great to listen to
Richard just shreds your brain with joy instead
Richard Smith is the guitar player I listen to most when I'm chilling at home. Hes an absolute master and his playing is effortlessly charming.
Richard's an astounding player and a gracious fellow. I used to go see his gigs when he visited his in-laws in their hometown, and would sit a few feet from him, almost tearing up to be able to soak up his playing. He brought his Hot Club buddies a couple of times - just fantastic. One day in heaven I'll have the time to develop similar skills : ) Thanks for those guitar memories Richard!
What an absolute guitar monster. Richard Smith is the cleanest picker on the planet period. Wow. Wow. Wow. 😮😮❤
How Richard can keep that baseline going in the middle of a run blows my mind.
Was fortunate to see Richard open up for Tommy. What a player !
Yep, me too, what a support act, and he sings...
Saw him 2-3 weeks ago in Indiana, world-class musician and a super nice guy. Highly recommended!!
He’s right about not recommending thumbpicks for flat picking. I tried to flat pick for many years with a thumb pick and I’m still trying. The day I decided to use a flat pick I realized what I was doing wrong. I never wanted to use flatpicks, I could never keep a grip on one, always preferred thumbpicks, came from a fingerpicking comfort zone from dobro playing.
Don't forget Johnny Winter for an example of doing anything and everything with a thumb pick
Just keep practicing man you can do it
So impressed and happy to see and hear u Richard Smith!
"Basic Rule of Thumb" Ok that cracked me up hard. Richard, and Tommy are so good together.
He looks good. And boy what a master he is. Norm looking good too, keep it strong!
Amazing how he effortlessly goes from one genre to another with equal comfort.
Sweet 🎵🎼🎶 Thank you Richard!
Richard is one of my favorites. Thanks so much for posting!
Extraordinary ! Richard is one of my all time favorite guitar players.

One of the best is Richard, and his interaction with Tommy is phenominal, they are absolutely interwoven together.
Saw them play together live last year in Dallas. Amazing show and they just feed off each other. Highly recommend anyone to see them live.
Great video, Richard Smith is a genius player and Norm is a natural interviewer, laid back, bright and humourous.
Inspiring episode and wonderful playing
I love Norm and what he has created
Well done
That's some sweet playing. What a treat. The stories are always enjoyable, too.
What a lovely bloke, and such talent and humility. Thanks Norm.
Richard is fantastic Norm !!! Glad you had him on to showcase his talents.
Wow Richard is the real deal! Very smooth and intens playing! Thank you Norm for putting him in the video!
Very good, you guys 🙂 Enjoyed listening. Richard plays beautifully, love the jazz chords and arrangements. Nice to see Norm's hanging in there. Hope you all have a good holiday season. Thanks for sharing.
Two of my favorite things: Norman's Rare Guitars and Richard Smith.
My guitars logged into reverb and put themselves up for sale after watching this video.
Wow really fortunate to have such a legend in your store!
Beautiful Norm merry Christmas from your friends in Australia 😇🙏🎶©️
Thanks Norm for having another amazing player in your shop. Its wonderful that you take the time to video some of the world's best guitar players like Richard and post it for the world to enjoy. Would have been fun to have scene Richard and Joe DiBlasi play a song. Maybe next time.
Richard Smith. A very common name for an exceptional musician.
Sweet playing! And cool leftie Prince tele hovering over Richard's left shoulder...
Amazing, as he always is. Richard never gives a bad show. A truly nice guy as well. I've played that guitar on a couple of occasions.
Great video Norm ! Richard Smith is such a gentleman and a true virtuoso.
Wow. Beautiful playing.
Looking fantastic Richard . Lovely hearing you play . Keep the torch burning baby 😊🇨🇦😊🇨🇦😊🇨🇦
Wow loved this session .Richard is a sublime musician and the banter back and forth was wonderful.
Norm you look the best iv ever seen you .
I'm a new fan of Richard and I'm going to seek his work and music out.
Thank you again Norm
A real guitar hero! I know he is English but his accent could almost be mistaken for Aussie at times.
you have to have an aussie accent when you can play like this. tommy emmanuel, ever heard about him? 🤣🤣🤣
I've known and enjoyed Richard Smith as a player for years but in this interview, I got to know who Richard Smith is as a person. Thatnks for that, Nroman! It's always nice to find out that one of your heroes is an actually good soul. Self effacing, humble and kind soul, I'm now even more impressed with Richard.
Wonderful. Thank you!
Sweet sounds. My tee shirt and a few small gifts arrived today! Miss you all here in Charlotte NC.
Lyrical, phrasing, and mixing up the chords along with melody lines a fantastical mastery moment that makes my afternoon. Another homerun at Norman's with Richard Smith.
This is amazing, what sweet sound
I’m British, why can’t I do this ? 🤣🤣
Richard you look terrific, fantastic. I hope the tour is a huge success
Wow, simply lovely piece, thank you
Hey Richard, you are a joy to listen to. I wish I could play like you!
Hes amazing love the Harmonics he did never seen it done like that before cheers Richard !!!
Man…so clean and a great tone…I could listen to that stuff all day. Definitely a CGP!
Richard; Humble, understated, legendary and as good as several of the best ever, combined!
A great interview and performance!
So great and just as humble.
Polkadots and Moonbeams with that tone is BEAUTIFUL. True mastery of the guitar!
Straight off the early 1980’s Standard Brands album by Chet and Lenny.
Since I heard Richard Smith the first time I`ve been a huge fan of his . He is so impressive in his playing and he loves to play solo as well as with other big names . 😃💚
Man! That F-Sharp chord you hit with the harmonics was AMAZING! WOW!💯🎸
Polka Dots and Moonbeams, TOO COOL !
Richard….you smoked man! Great playing and big thanks to Norman’s Rare Guitars for a great video!
Absolutely mesmerizing ...........what a brilliant guitarist Richard Smith is
There are many reasons why being English can feel a burden sometimes but seeing Richard really makes me proud to be from England - not just for his talent but he's a total English gentleman and extremely humble and kind. Thank you, Richard and ps I agree the red rocks fascinate me too!!
Why on Earth should being English be a burden?
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 because so many countries hate us and we have done some terrible things.. Isn't that obvious?
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 they colonized and ruined half the world's countries that's why.
@golden.lights.twinkle2329 you've never studied English history obviously 😅
A clown's comment if there ever was one.
Here's one of those guys that I check their website every month just hoping to see a performance near me. Thank God they are touring again!
Great interview. Richard is a genius, an incredible talent.
The first time I ever saw Richard was at the Chet festival in Nashville many, many years ago. He astounded me with his ability to go from Chet to Django and back
In the same song!! His brothers Rob and Sam were with him that trip as were his parents. His father actually hand made a G6120 replica for Richard.
Regarding Lenny.....another truly gifted musician. I had no idea how messed up on drugs he was until I began reading his biography. Terrible loss.
Two of my favourite people. Great video!
Richard Smith is one of the greats!
wow great epsiode and dang he can play that sounded amazing happy happy keep it up Norm and dang he was all over that fret board
Love it
Great playing, Richard! Sounding great Fret Brother🎸I really like your lines and chord voicings.
Richard can flat light up a six-string! Wizard!
With all the turmoil, divisive rhetoric and negativity in the world, I turn to Norm's Rare Guitars channel for a reminder of the goodness in the world. Every clip makes my day more positive. Thanks everyone at Norm's!
What a awesome display of talent..Happy Holidays
🔥🤡🔥
Thank you Mr.Smith and everyone at Norms
The Perry's

One of the greatest acoustic players around 🙌
WOW that Guy can really play a guitar, I wish you had more videos of him playing
Richard - a gentleman and wizard on the 6 string! Great session.

Thank you Richard, thank you Jen (great audio & video), Norm, you're pretty good too.
Sounds great
Smooth,cool..that's Richard Smith,could listen all day long,oh' yeah!😊
Legend!
Over the years, I have seen Richard play virtually all of his shows at Lord of the Strings Concerts in the OC, including some of the tours with wife Julie Adams on cello. He's amazing- and so's Julie.
The box in the background marked, “Fragile “… is a major award!
(A Christmas Story 😊)
It must be Italian
Beautiful song
Very Nice playing !
Phenomenal. Find and check out the videos of Richard playing Scott Joplin’s “The Entertainer”. Crazy good.
RIDICULOUS!!
One of the masters!
Wow 😮green talent
Richard Smith is a very talented player! I purchased Ted Green's book CHORD CHEMISTRY back in the early 70's. One of the best investments I ever made to learn guitar...Kudos for this video Norm!
Just amazing...
