Wow man... I've never heard someone capture the sound of bagpipes such as you. Those accents are SO on point. Amazing! ☘️

It's so refreshing to hear proper fingerstyle with all of those percussive guitarists sounding the same these days. Your channel really stands out.

if that guitar could talk it would want to hug you for making it feel amazing !!!!! wonderful skill !!

Stephen, you blow my mind. That is the perfect way to start any day.

This imo rivals some of the greatest guitar riffs in history. My God your fingers are moving so quickly

The trick is mastering the picking hand triplet and fretting hand hammer on. Then, the timing. Great job!

I have bought the album, and it is the best arranging and playing I have heard on the Celtic guitar. Stephen, you deserve to rank right up there with Bill Coulter, Tony McManus, and Franco Morone. I recommend.

Absolutely fantastic playing and such a beautiful tone!!

This made my day! Thank you so much!

Terrific playing. I really enjoyed your performance. Thx for posting.

I love this arrangement, the pace is terrific. I may be alone here, but some of the phrases in 'Bucks of Oranmore" evoke the intro to "Baba O'Riley"

Fantastic! Love it!

I always enjoy your playing. Thanks for you work, Stephen! Take care!

Love this! Just trying to teach myself folk picking and dadgad after years of standard tuning and rock guitar. Great stuff!

beautiful melody

In love, congrats ! 🤘🤘

I love it !

Absolutely brilliant! Thanks for this great music Stephen :D

Excellent honest playing. WOW

If I lived for a thousand years and had guitar lessons every day, I would never be even a small fraction towards playing like you. Thanks for your beautiful and talented demonstration. I can only dream.

perfect spirit of celtic culture!!! wawwwww so nice as usual!!!!!!!!

Stunning

SO GOOD

Wow, inspiring for any guitarist!

Love this

MY GOD!!! You are AMAZING. ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ God bless you and bless your hands. That was such a stunning play.

Thank you for this wonderful musical journey dear Stephen. As always, your technique is fabulous and each note flows like the water of a river. I play on my classical guitar and I find it hard to get into DADGAD. I would need a guitar always tuned like this. The sound of your guitar is very pure. Musical friendships Phil

Nice work, sir. Thanks for sharing.

Love from nepal 🇳🇵

mind altar .. very tony mcmannus amazing control bro

What the hell... That is insane skill.

i like it

Impressive, I still have much to learn

Awesome, great! Irish music is a very soothing sound. I would give my left nut to be able to play Irish guitar. But I'm an old man now and the fingers just don't work like they did 30 years.

This makes me want to drink, dance,fight, love, cry. That is how I know it's great. Thank you. I needed that. You never know when something's going to break through and touch you. I play a bit but I analyze everything in an effort to learn & that can work to keep me unaffected. With this link my son sent I began to analyze at first. I knew it would be technical. We share things like that and it'll be amazing..but I wouldn't want to spend the night hearing it. This did the harder "thing" It got through to me. I finally just gave in and closed my eyes. I began to hear the TONE of the instrument and the song without thinking about the notes and technique. I wasn't picking out this or that, I actually heard the whole piece at once, a rare occurrence for me. Thanks for the hard work and time you put into your craft. It transcended like only music at a high level can.

Is there a video tutorial I can buy for this ? Absolutely unreal. Played for 15 years and its a breath of fresh air!!

you just reignited a 10 year old passion in me. time to go play in my little room~ off i go

Virtuosity personified

I wish i can play guitar like that

holy shoite! did you ever look at someone doing this before you could and think "how the feck does he do that?".. I'm just trying to gauge whether or not is ever have a chance. I wonder how many single notes you play in that entire song. beautiful none the less.

wow. subscribed.

hellyeah!

Very good!I have buy the PDF,but I haven't finish it.

1:19 Ah! The Fox Hunter's Reel! Finally!

Hi Stephen, I'm wondering how you achieved that drone sound in this recording (and some of your others)? It sounds quite good and I think it really supports the melody well!

I've been looking for nice Celtic guitar music to listen to whilst I work. Especially music that includes the typical tin whistle or fiddle melodies in the composition. This is perfect. Beautifully played too.

Habilidad. Sensibilidad. Virtud !

Super.....

That is extraordinary skill you have my friend!!! I feel like chucking it in after watchig yourself play!!! What guitar is that you have there??

Very well done - Hope your albums sell. mSw

Fantastic playing with great ornamentation! Thank you for the tabs.

So good.... So f****ing good. lol

where did you get the drone from. amazing stuff

I wanna learn this beautiful piece ... Can you arrange tutorial...

wow great playing. very tony mcmanus-ish. nice recorded tone too. What kind of mic is that? Shure of some sort?

Great playing. What a magic tone. What guitar is this? I want one.

Superb.Do you have an album?

THE TREMELO WHAT

It's like flamenco but even better

Nice playing, nice key change at 1:19. I am not sure about that artificial drone that comes in at 1:55. The guitar holds its own w/o needing such things. IMHO. But great playing anyway, thanks for posting.

Beautiful playing, how's your shoulder?

👋👋👋👋👋❤️🌹🌷💐

wow. just f ckin wow.

You are so awesome mate! Love from Australia!
