Awesome version of this song-- I've been playing it for a few years now, and this guys' originality makes me feel like I'm playing the lamest version of it ever. Thanks for the inspiration
He plays on tv and has released plenty of cd's. Discovered by Atkins himself when he was only 11 years of age. Tommy emmanuel asked me if I knew or had about him guitar clinics in 2006 one of his he told me that I had the same thumbstyle. Now I am proud.. I hadn't but I did some research afterwards. And I have been fan on Richards ever since. He has an amazing talent. One of the best out there imho.
Literally first watched this 6 or 7 years ago and just today decided to try and find it. Took me a minute to remember the song but Jesus, what a performance.
I'm trying my damndest to learn this tune and my pinky hates me for it. Go ahead, try that bend. You need a pinky of titanium and carbon fiber tendons to repeatedly hit that note, i'm very impressed
How much are the skills? Jk, been thinking of getting a Taylor, but i need a good strumming guitar for contemporary christian music. I've heard Stonebridge is more for finger picking and i can't find any strum videos. How does it do with strumming? got any vids of that?
Richrd Smith is one of the absolute best. I love his exuberance!
He has passion definitely 😮get em big boy

One of the absolute best guitarists I've ever heard. Thank you Richard.

Probably the best version of the song I've heard. Wonderfully done by the master!
Any song I see Richard Smith play, it's always the best version of the song that I've heard.
This right should be one of the highlights for him
It makes me want to get up and applaud a youtube videoFANTASTIC!

It's actually an IP-2 and onboard preamp, but the mic is not installed for this performance.
Holy fuck.....
He's playing it on the acoustic, for a change.
Wow
The pickup is a Highlander place under the saddle. That's it.
@rdrich55 nobody...it's all Richard. I learned most of this arrangement just because of that nice passage.

I can see Kirk Sand behind i think
Yeah. That's Kirk. A legend in his own right.
How much are the skills?
Jk, been thinking of getting a Taylor, but i need a good strumming guitar for contemporary christian music. I've heard Stonebridge is more for finger picking and i can't find any strum videos.
How does it do with strumming? got any vids of that?
