50-years ago this song blew-up the world! Even as a 10-year old I knew it was special... Mason was WAY ahead of his time! Thank-You for your art Sir.

Classical Gas is not an island though Mason Williams like Jeff Lynne I suppose, have managed to popularize classical music and bravo to them I say. Classical Gas and say Cavatina from the Deer Hunter movie are better known in contemporary pieces but Concierto de Aranjuez by Joaquin Rodrigo for guitar and orchestra is a 20th century work and has about 5 Classical Gas type guitar passages in it. It is pretty recognizable but worth watching the full 25mins. From the classical guitar POV I find the 2nd movement haunting. If there is one thing one must do before one leaves this world is see Concierto de Aranjuez live. No recording on any high end sound system can come remotely close to the live experience. Find the money whatever it takes: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/as9_hc-HyLHOc3U.html

In 1973 I was 8 years old and sent Mason a hand written note in the mail to tell him how much I loved his music. He wrote me a note back! He said when he came to Detroit he would let me know. To say I was thrilled is an understatement.

'Classical Gas' is probably the greatest modern-day, instrumental opus ever written and performed. I remember listening to this in the mid-70's with a full orchestra behind Mason Williams' masterpiece. This kind of music touches the heart and soul - and lets you know you are listening to incredible beauty and greatness.

I prefer Mason's solo rather than his version with the orchastra. I would never have thought I would like a duet - but this works rather well with the harp. Years ago I learned the first couple of bars on my guitar and then got into something else. Time to get back on it and learn the whole thing. It may take me a year !

To anyone who was a young adult or a teenager in 1968 when Williams recorded this & won 3 grammys for it. it was mind boggling. It became an instant giant mega-hit. No one had ever heard a driving classical guitar solo like this before. More than one kid got a speeding ticket driving to his original recording of this. It was at a faster tempo than this and over 40 years later its still the most aired, played, used in tv and film solo guitar instrumental of all time.

It was My first recording purchase, and beginning of music appreciation. (I was 10 years old) ASA I got home I played Classical Gas with My little brother, at least 100 times in a row! I don't remember exactly when I slowed down listening to what became my favorite song of all time, but it was quite a while. Today at 62 (52 music years later) I'm still mesmerized when I hear Mason Williams performance of "Classical Gas", just like the first time I heard it, and (IMHO) CG is one of the best songs ever written/performed
