Saturday Sessions: Tommy Emmanuel

12 Bar Blues in the Key of E

This one was brought to my attention by Viburnum and is quite simply, amazing.  The things this man does to a guitar, quite frankly, ought to be illegal. It is well worth the six and a half minutes it takes to listen to all of it.  A medley of Guitar Boogie and Stevie's Blues. This man beats that guitar like it owed him money.

Been listening to Tommy a long time. Lot's of great youtubes other there too. over the rainbow, day tripper, hundreds more.

If you get a chance to see him live, I highly recommend it. Fantastic show. He's playing somewhere every few days. Check out the tour page
