When Tommy Immanuel stands up and claps for you, you know you did something bad-ass.
Ole gal has the vapors watching those fingers strut
Wow. This is genuinely exceptional guitar playing.
There's a lot of hyperbole on youtube - I think a couple of days ago there was some metal version of Beethoven's moonlight sonata which was called FLAWLESS or something. It wasn't flawless, or particularly musical.
This is an incredible performance - you might have to be a fingerstyle guitarist to really understand how complex and complete this is, but genuinely - this is about as good as it can get.
I think that's Tommy Emmanuel introducing him.
Great video, great players. I love this clip from a get together, where Tommy and Richard work out a tune... love seeing how they tackle it together.

Next to him is Tommy Emmanuel, the Australian guitarist who has the distinction of being one of only a few certified guitar players on the planet. Chet Atkins used to be one and he is one, and if you want to listen to some amazing guitar work listen to mr. Emmanuel.
I have played electric guitar for 15 years (in and out of bands), and I’d say I’m pretty capable. But I feel really inferior when i see people shred a classical guitar like this...
"Anyways, here's wonderwall."
If fucking Tommy Emmanuel says no one can play that? You know its legit!
