It’s always a pleasure when your artistic heroes turn out to be good people as well. I love Tommy Emmanuel!

We don’t think you’re a genius; we know you’re a genius. You’re the best, Tommy!

It’s hard to keep track of evérything he’s doing all at once, with great musicality, humour and joy…. What a man!

His playing is nearly incomparable (he's humble enough not to admit it). Every note is distinct, as is every pause. And his progressions are just genius. I smile every time I hear him, and more when I see him enjoying his craft and those who are benefiting.

You are still amazing, Tommy. Thanks for many years of incredible guitar.

He is simply the best.. And a nice guy, to boot!

👍👌😋 Always makes my day to hear the man. Love you, my friend.

Tommy got me playing fingerstyle. A wonderful musician and Certified Guitar Player!

Been playing acoustic guitar for about 30 years. I can’t get close to this! Even when explained by Tommy in layman’s terms! Your technique is just incredible. I doff my hat sir.

It's a joy to watch someone do EXACTLY what they've been meant to do.

Ladies and gentlemen, the effortless mastery of Tommy Emmanuel. Such a joy.

Tommy is literally a magician on the guitar! I love to listen to just about anything he plays!

Gifted, hard working, and well studied. What a joy to watch and listen.

Oh my this is as good as it gets . I have played mandolin since before Sierra was born and she continues to amaze and inspire me . As for Tommy we are exactly the same age . I met him twenty years ago when a friend opened for him. I will never forget that day when I heard the most amazing musician I had ever heard. Over the years whenever he has come to town I have had the opportunity to see him and spend a few moments with him. He is so much more than just an amazing musician . He is so very kind, funny , and inspiring. I actually got the chance to photograph him and David Grisman the last time he was in town . I would morgatge my house to see Tommy , Sierra and Grisman play just one concert ❤

Great stuff Tommy. I'm seeing him tomorrow night in Brisbane, for the second time. The last and only other time i saw him was in 1982 with Phil, at the Melbourne Hotel, about 200 yards and a lifetime away from where he will be playing tomorrow. Very excited

The unbelievable,the incredible, the amazing, one of a kind master of the acoustic guitar, a class act as well, Thank you Tommy you made my day 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Such a delight to hear, and such a pleasure to read all of the amazing comments in the thread too!

Haunting and absolutely beautiful ❤️. RIP Benny, a true gentleman and friend xx. Sadly missed.

What joy he conveys thru his instrument…near childlike in the best possible ways.

Magic Tommy..best guitarist in the world! 🤩🤩

I wanna play like Tommy & marry that woman with that beautiful voice....

Legend pure and simple

damn singer

No one plays a guitar quite like Tommy!

Thanks for sharing! Timeless performance

The best guitarist I believe I've ever heard. Flawless.

Pure genius.

Just amazing. I've been looking for a reason to sell my guitars... 😃

Fabulous. Tommy always makes you happy when he plays.

That is one of God's gifts to the guitar world. There are only a handful on earth. You can't practice your way to this performance; you just won't live long enough

Always the best...thank you Tommy🙏🏼🙌🏼

I love his arrangements they keep you in the grove but always wanting more because he keeps you entertained and havn fun duin it

I'm SMILING so so huge!!!!! Just simply a great entertainer

It’s not everyone who can be dedicated to practice a skill enough to become this fluent and out of those that do how many have the musicality and performance skills of Tommy Emmanuel, just an absolute master of his craft and a joy to witness

Gorgeous! Simply the best!

Tommy is so enjoyable to watch and listen to. Such mastery of an instrument is rare to begin with but even more rare is the coupling of that talent with a pleasant and humble demeanor. The subtitles in his performance are the effortless extension of a cool persona. Tommy is as cool as it gets.

Master class, as always!🌹

This is truely “playing” the guitar. The sheer joy is contagious even if I’m just struggeling I feel the same need to play! Thank you mr. Emmanuel!

Super wonderful. Thanks.

Awesome, thank for sharing.

Tommy, you are SUCH an inspiration to me!

He makes you want to dance 💃 smile and laugh just feel good 👍🏽

Omg I love love love this ❤

it's impossible to not absolutely love this guy, and then also his guitar playing ,holy shit!!

I have often heard about him but was delighted to finally hear him on this post just recently! He is amazing, actually creates enjoyable music rather than meaningless fast notes and what a showman!

I'm grinning from ear to ear watching Tommy nail this ( as he always does)

Tommy, you are a very talented musician. Thank you for your creativity. 😊

Stunningly brilliant!! Tommy, you are amazing and inspiring. Thank you for all that you do, and the way that you do it! Truly awesome!

So good Tommy, thanks😋

Was having a rather rotten day..Turned on the laptop and went to youtube..Up pops Tommy and his beautiful guitar music..pretty new vids available.. Like having a new day!

Beautiful!

WOW LOVE IT 😊

Beautiful performance!!

Brilliant!

Found The Man here playing my fave tune Amazing Grace. Not a week later a friend gave me a ticket to see him. No One has More Fun than Tommy

Good one! Makes me want to learn the words 🙂

Genius Saw him in Greenville SC Awesome show

Your EmmanueL Plays the Guitar 🎸 with excellence . Our EmmanueL was an excellent Boxer, a world Champ . Wants to be president .

You almost got an old Marine choked up because your initiative and perseverance. Dang good stuff as always my.. Auzzie transferred to Tennessee Amazing Musician

EXCELLENT ABSOLUTELY AMAZING TOO

Tommy is sooooo Fabulous!!

MAESTRO!!! NO WORDS

Entspannter Mann mit großem Können und Humor! Super geil

keep coming back the greatest.

I've seen him perform live twice. He's a musician's musician. You look around and you just know most of the audience (if not all) are guitar players. I know non-artists can enjoy and appreciate this level of artistry. But, I really believe there's another level that only guitarists get to during one of his performances. You watch in awe ping-ponging in your head. "I'll never pick up my guitar again-I can't wait to get home and try 'anything' new on the six strings I have."

Great. Tommy! 😀

Virtuoso guitarist, brilliant musician, perfect showman. Ladies and Gentlemen: Tommy Emmanuel.

Doing easy what others find impossible.

❤ , like 3 people play music , natural acoustic ,lively!

Qué bien la guitarra, ese swing que me gusta la la epoca de oro del Rock, congratulation Tommy Emmanuel.

Magic!!

Legend!

Ah, that's classic Tommy and his most relaxed best.

Tommy you are a genius!

simple the best. amazing

Wow. ❤

SO many hours invested... A LIFE'S WORK... what dedication... GOD is good...

AMAZING..GENIJE❤❤❤

PARABÉNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LINDA HARMONIA E ARRANJO

I hate when people think they have to sing at concerts. Let the performers play.

yeah!!!

Awesome. My daughter served him on jet star going to Brisbane I think, said I was a mad fan of his, so he signed his autograph for me on a jet star boarding pass how nice…

Still killin' it ♥♥

He is a genius of course. Thanks for this

What a genius !!

¡Extraordinario!

Tommy is just so gifted at playing guitar .

Pure genius. But still people need to “sing” along rather than listen and soak in the nuance. But Tommy’s a pro who can handle anything!

Tommy doesn't perform. He is a TRUE entertainer. Plays the instrument as if he is just telling a story for us. I remember seeing him in NY once with his brother. It never felt like we were "watching" a performance. He got everyone invested in the music. It was an amazing experience.

A gold legend

What an arrangement of Blue Moon it was my Mum's favourite tune I used play guitar my mum would sing my guitar playing has never been close to Tommy he's an amazing guitar player.

Just brilliant Tommy, when are you coming to Spain?

His secret is to have three invisible musicians joining in on drums, bass and second guitar. Easy when you know how.

Eric Clapton said he is the best acoustic guitar player I've ever seen.

Absolutely hands down a very versatile in many techniques and harmonics. Go look up somewhere over the rainbow.
