Much respect! MR. NORMAN BROWN my wife and I met you years back in Los Angeles you shook my hand and took a picture with us it still hangs in my music room right now all these years later! Thanks for all the wonderful music!
Everytime I listen to this guy, all my negative thoughts vanished and I feel so relaxed as I'm flying and feel like I have everything what's needed in life to feel free, I'm so rich and feel abundance by just listening Norman's music.
NORMAN on this Gibson L5 was a great Surprise to me❤ But His artistic style was not diminished On That Guitar ❤ Thanks Norman ,for these memories John Barnett aka A Voice In The Mall ❤❤❤❤revisted July 1 2024 ❤
I heard this song back in 1999ish, followed the trail, and fell into the rabbit hole. Hours and hours of such joy and pleasure ever since, not to mention getting my head in the right space. An amazing talent. Thank you, Norman Brown. Gifted. Hero.
This truly brings back the best memories. Growing up this was one of my dads favorite musicians. One of my favorite guitar players on earth🙌🏽 there’s nothing like the sound of the great Norman Brown!!!🎸🎸🎸
Truly the spirit of West Montgomery and George Benson flows through this man and all wrapped in his own unique style.. Such clean articulate tone on that giant Gibson archtop, from October, the ascending with alternate so clean and thank you Norman!
I can recall listening to Norman on my way to and from work. Then I would go home and do round two to relax. His music always put me in an elevated frame of mind.
He does not always play relaxed like this.. Sometimes in concert he really burns it up, gets people standing up on their feet.. Not so many Jazz guitarists can do that, get a rock crowd reaction.
I walked into Tower Records when this album debut and they were playing it, I had to ask one of the workers who was this and walked out with 3 of his cds! Now I have most of his stuff!
One of the BEST! He makes me smile and cry at the same time, this song is bitter sweet memories of my life. ThaNK yOU MR. BROWN, ARTIST EXTRAORDINAIRE..........
This guy is so kickass, he taught our music note reading class at GIT, MI music school. He was so cool and kicked back, great teacher too, he put up with our goofy jokes etc.. He was so great then too he was like 26 years old then, he was a major player already then.
I have all of Norman Brown's CDs way back when he was on the MoJazz label up until now. His entire music catalog. His music is "timeless". Talented brotha.
I recently started taking Jazz guitar lessons because of Norman, and even bought an Ibanez George Benson model; which is the one I have seen him play. Anyway, about 3 months in the lessons, found out my teacher was one of his former students when he lived in Atlanta.
Wow what can you say....... this peice never fails to inspire me to get on with my life no matter the obstacles and what a performance, the energy the vibe he puts out is contagious, god bless Stormin Norman ❤️🙏🕊
Wow!!! Love the beautiful chords at the end as well as all the great soulful phrasing and tone that Norman has here! Norman was an awesome Musicians’ Institute instructor (G.I.T. in Hollywood Ca.) when I was a student there.I still remember how encouraging and complementary he was to me when he and I played a real book jazz tune in front of the class.Everybody liked and respected Norman and his abilities there. I became a Guitar instructor at M.I. after graduating there. I still remember Norman congratulating me on that too. I hope that he is still blessing people with his encouragement,tremendous playing and teaching abilities! Mark Caviness (Nashville Tn.)
Thank you stormin' Norman... I've watched this video a half dozen times today ..it just cures what ails ya... I've loved this tune for years... and it never ages or gets old... timeless... BRAVO!! WOOT WOOT!
Thank you for sharing this video! I've wanted to see this type of video for years. So nice to see him play my favorite song of his and to see his hands up close!
Extremely Talented. Norman Brown is great..Love the style: Norman Brown, Mark Whitfield, Nick Colionne, Tim Bowman, Jeffery Smith, Bruce McKenzie A Ray Fuller, Micheal Vince, I frankly love them all. They are all in my music collection.
I met Sir Norman Brown hanging out in Columbus Ohio at the Jazz and Ribfest.. Not only did he have one of the greatest smiles and personalities I've ever met, (no ego)but he lit the place up on stage!!!! May God bless him always
Magnífico! Para dizer pouco. Que maravilha para se ouvir sempre! Bravo!!!!!!
I first heard Norman play this song when I was 10 and immediately thought, this is a song I’m going to listen to for the rest of my life.
Why?
Young Gifted and Blessed Norman was and is one of the most beautiful musician of our time this music keeps me relax at all times keep Blessed Bro

Give me a break. Most gifted is Pat Metheny. No one comes close.
Indeed he is! Had the pleasure of seeing him at the concert venue in Douglasville, Ga in 2018. He and his band were awesome!!
I concur!!!
This brings back old memories as a kid when my stepfather used to play these Norman Brown songs throughout the house on the CD player.
Thank you lord ! We still have talented jazz guitarists. Could listen to Norman all day long.
Eu ouço várias vezes ao dia amoooo me lembro do Wes Montgomery do tempo que tinha 19 anos hoje tenho 74 e gosto muitoooo de Jazz
Mr. Brown your music always get's me right where I need to be. Thank you!
Truly the spirit of West Montgomery and George Benson flows through this man and all wrapped in his own unique style.. Such clean articulate tone on that giant Gibson archtop, from October, the ascending with alternate so clean and thank you Norman!
There's a lot of Larry Carlton in his playing too.
Nah
You are correct my thoughts exactly 👍👍
He Sounds like the great george benson!
Yes I can some Larry and Wes in his playing.
Exchanging between his thumb and the pick in the blink of an eye!!! Making it oh so smooth!!! You're the best Norman!!!!
Always a classic smooth jazz groove no matter when ;-)
One of the BEST!
