yeah as a metalhead myself, I'm driven by technicality, cleanliness of playing, accuracy, dexterity, and the acknowledgement of technique. Super awesome, he's metal in my book.
Galera do Brasil que está chateada com o título dessa música, acho que vcs não sacaram bem o "ingrêis" dele: Nunca cheguei em Pernambuco! To got é passado de to get (chegar, alcançar). A interpretação de alguns é: Nunca vá a...( Never go to...) o que não seria correto a meu ver, pois o passado de to go( ir) é went/gone! De qualquer forma, a música é fera e Don Ross arrebenta!!! :D
never go to pernambuco fica bom também, como se Pernambuco fosse high level demais, tão bom que é um segredo e que você nunca mais vai querer ir embora
No doubt Don has worked diligently for years to be able to get the music out of a guitar that most of us mere mortals can only dream of doing. But, I can assure u, no one plays like this without having an underlying talent/genius that no amount of work and practice can generate. This man is truely gifted. I am thankfull that he has allowed us to share in this gift. Thank you Don. The world is a little better place having u and your incredible talent in it.
I saw him live with Andy McKee and loved this tune. These 2 guitarists are amazing talents and genuinely nice people. I loved them so much I'm going to see them again tomorrow nite. Can't wait!!!
This so badass funky and testimony to this man's huge talent.

What are you waiting for to come to Pernambuco? I live in Recife. Brazilians would br very proud to have you here! Congrats for all your music. Hope to watch it live someday!
Sometimes a Don Ross tune pops into my head out of nowhere (which is why I'm here again) and without thinking too hard I can always remember which one it is
When don ross and andy mckee play I can hear their personalities in a way. They are two very different people that have experienced different things in their life. I can relate to Don Ross more so the emotion conveyed through his music is more easily understood for me. I'm also very open-minded... I think both Don and Andy show a lot of emotion through their playing and shouldn't be compared.
Pernambuco is a State from Brazil NorthEast. Ross probably "Never got to Pernambuco" but his sound has got certain nuances of "Frevo", a tipical style of "Pernambucan" music.
I enjoy listening to your Eggselent tunes and to see you grooving makes it even better............. true beautiy comes from inside and your a TOP Model
i keep coming back to this great song :) too bad there is no tab for this song. maybe gonna try to learn it by ear and with the help of this video. love you Don!
Yotes, this is tap guitar playing, using notes construction(accord?, i dont know the word in english, sorry) that are traditional on bossa nova. And it´s genious, cause he takes the tap thing and make a big funky groove.
this guy is fricken amazing !! such a unique sound he has i would say.....definately his own style! top 10 most talented acoustic players ever i would say haha candyrat is fricken insane one of the best labels around !! damn i want to see these candyrat guys Live on day fucking amazing shit
Well, it looks like its a nylon string guitar with a steel string fret. The way you can tell is the bridge. No pegs. They wrapped around. Then again...I dunno how big his hands are so...Heh. Also, this piece is one of the most amazing pieces I've heard! Keep it up man!
Don ross est le vecteur de tous les guitariste Cest la masse critique ou toutes les techniques se rencontrent et ou se forme au pied de l'arbre d'eden lharmonie supreme un chant unique dans un monde desabuse un cri plein despoir ou se pointe tous les oreilles
Saw him play a couple days ago. He is amazing at guitar, plus he is fucking hilarious to boot. He knows how to keep the crowd entertained so believe me, they probably were laughing in between.
Largely, I would agree, but songs like Elevation Music totally lift you and The Thing That Came From Somewhere hit deep. Don does not just produce totally amazing rocket fast guitar pieces. he has the capacity for eloquent, slow, beautiful melodies as much as Andy IMO. Love 'em both though, seeing Andy live 10th May. x
I saw this guy live great preformer and super funny has great stories. He gets his nails done becuse he figures they may as well be taken care of since he's gotta keep them long.
Well said. I used to think one could do anything through enough practice, but sometimes it really does take having the natural ability i.e. luck/talent/predisposition
Please give me what vitamins this guy is taking. What energy. Looks like a fun tune to play. I need to change gears so searching for a NICE gentle tune. : -)))) Guess that is the female in me. : -)

17 years ago... around that time I discovered Don... changed me forever
11 years after and I'm still watching this AMAZING CLASSIC!!!! muito bom Don Ross!!!!
Awesome groove going on all the time!! One of his best songs!
Ten years later, and still... so good.

Alice Menezes exatamente, estão confundindo com o imperativo: never go to...

I saw this live, it was awesome. He added a wah wah effect part way through!
Its Don Ross. Even if the title were saying not to "go" there, it wouldn't matter. The man is a God. He can call his masterpieces whatever he pleases,
I think this qualifies as shredding on an acoustic guitar. Mad props. This is so awesome.
holy crap look at the speed, precision, technique, skill. don ross is truley the master of the acoustic guitar.
How can the audience be so sleepy?! This deserves a proper headbanging at least!
Mate, they’re all just having their jaws dropped, that’s why
This so badass funky and testimony to this man's huge talent.
What are you waiting for to come to Pernambuco? I live in Recife. Brazilians would br very proud to have you here!
Congrats for all your music. Hope to watch it live someday!
Master of Masters ! Thanks for your great music Don !!
Man this is my favorite of his.
stupendo... stile limpido e pulito, sciolto nei movimenti e melodia magnifica! un vero capolavoro! tutta la mia ammirazione dall'Italia!!
2:30 - 2:50 is my favorite part of any guitar song ever.
Pois eu estive várias vezes lá, em Recife PE, mas a música deste cara é D+!!
love the way he moves his head lol! Don Ross is just awesome in every way
Don was at Wilbert's in Cleveland right across from Jacob's Field last night! There were only about 10 people there and he played this!
Sometimes a Don Ross tune pops into my head out of nowhere (which is why I'm here again) and without thinking too hard I can always remember which one it is
Yeah! Funky, folky, jazzy, etc. Great bassline in it too! Thank you Don.
Just discovered this cat and must say... Holy Guacamole! Him and Andy eff my mind up in many good ways
Gotta say my fave Don Ross...
Beautiful! Love the song and Don has mad chops!
i saw this last night in concert... don ross just walked and started playing no words spoken hah it was wicked
salut, j'ai regardé plusieurs fois tes videos, elles sont super.
merci Don Ross pour cette agréable moment!
thanksssssssssssss!
Oh cannot imagine who wrote this song! Crazy and amazing!
Sounds like Lenine! Who don't knows, he's an amazing musician from Pernambuco!
AWESOME!!! I'M FLOORED. LOVE IT!!!
Just saw Don and Andy Mckee live and it was amazing if you ever have the chance do it...best money you will ever spend
Finally!! A musician that respects Brazil!!
You're exactly right. Don was supposed to visit and play at Pernambuco on a few occasions but he never got to go, hence the song...
Genius!!!
this is amazing. So brilliant, I love it so much. 5/5 stars everyday!
The crowd must have been too stunned to move?I would have been applauding like a crazy person if i were there witnessing that pure awesomeness.
simply great! this guy is sooo good.
i saw him live yesterday in austria..also performing this tune .. AMAAAAAAAAAAZING!!! i got a signed cd :)))
Great song even more amazing player love it
Just fantastic!
2023. Still slaps

2:32 - 2:45 he caught some SERIOUS groove!!

i keep coming back to this great song :)
too bad there is no tab for this song. maybe gonna try to learn it by ear and with the help of this video. love you Don!
He is so insanely accurate with both hands it scares me. Jesus!
that's the most amazing thing I've ever seen with six strings!!!!
smooth like Old English 800 in a paper bag.....gotz to love my old english 800
truely amazing solo guitarists
Yotes, this is tap guitar playing, using notes construction(accord?, i dont know the word in english, sorry) that are traditional on bossa nova. And it´s genious, cause he takes the tap thing and make a big funky groove.
Its amazing how he use Bossa Nova chords and variations. And that's where Pernambuco fits, because its a Brazillian state.
Soa muito as músicas de Lenine e Lula Queiroga. Isso é alma de Pernambuco, um Pernambuco profundo.
He is really fast and he is the best of anyone who does face pace music.
he deserved such a louder applause at the end of that song.
Gawd damn Don!!!!!! Just awsome groove :D
DOn ross for President !! least we would have amazing music ! all anyone needs is good music
CandyRat equals gods !!!!!!!
Mind-blowingly amazing.
But what's new for Don?
Wuuuaaah The master at his best
impressionnant-Amazing!!

i wonder if is Pernambuco Brasil ...(?)
o swing é perfeito!! o cara é bom!!!!
this guy is fricken amazing !!

top 10 most talented acoustic players ever i would say haha
candyrat is fricken insane one of the best labels around !!
damn i want to see these candyrat guys Live on day
fucking amazing shit
So he can not only direct great movies like the Lord of the Rings trilogy, but he can flat-out play, too!!
Seriously, Don can play. Very talented guy.
I love this song it makes me nod my head furiously and sing all the way through lol
this is a great song! man i feel like i need to play it my self!
Well, it looks like its a nylon string guitar with a steel string fret. The way you can tell is the bridge. No pegs. They wrapped around. Then again...I dunno how big his hands are so...Heh. Also, this piece is one of the most amazing pieces I've heard! Keep it up man!
Don ross est le vecteur de tous les guitariste
Cest la masse critique ou toutes les techniques se rencontrent
et ou se forme au pied de l'arbre d'eden lharmonie supreme
un chant unique dans un monde desabuse
un cri plein despoir ou se pointe tous les oreilles
I JUST POSTED THIS TO MY FACEBOOK....MASTERMIND!!!

Saw him play a couple days ago.
He is amazing at guitar, plus he is fucking hilarious to boot. He knows how to keep the crowd entertained so believe me, they probably were laughing in between.
don ross is the man!
yep he did, i think all the songs you'll hear of his here on youtube are all originals. Genius, no?
I didn't steal it. I was just borrowing it! Part of my plan to one day RULE THE WORLD with Don's guitar!
;-)
You already been in Pernambuco? What song title says? Regards from Pernambuco! My wonderful land!
Diz "Nunca fui a Pernambuco"
Largely, I would agree, but songs like Elevation Music totally lift you and The Thing That Came From Somewhere hit deep. Don does not just produce totally amazing rocket fast guitar pieces. he has the capacity for eloquent, slow, beautiful melodies as much as Andy IMO.
Love 'em both though, seeing Andy live 10th May.
x
Awesome groove
I only need to hear the first 10 seconds and I know...it's an other awesome song, written and played by Don Ross :o god-like.
If they get to Pernanbuco sometime, they would enjoy the awesome beaches, food, music and enjoy some Don Ross too! =D
that would change the way i perceive things in general.... i am envious of you
im not the biggest fan of acoustic virtouso music but this guys insane....total control over the instrument...
KRALHO!! toca de mais, ke içu mey...
Amazing Guitar.
Grooooovaaaayyyyyy!!!!!! :) Don your the man
@Josezitoreq It's in standard, so you could...
Just before playing this song he mentioned this was the only Brazilian tune he knew. A damn nice one, if you ask me ;-)
whatever he uses.. hes amazing.
couldn't agree more with you man...
I saw this guy live great preformer and super funny has great stories. He gets his nails done becuse he figures they may as well be taken care of since he's gotta keep them long.
Well said. I used to think one could do anything through enough practice, but sometimes it really does take having the natural ability i.e. luck/talent/predisposition
you cant really compare the two as they are so different. Both pioneers at the top of their game.
freakin amazing, man...all i gotta say...FREAKIN AMAZING! :D
never heard about it.. thanks for the explanation !
Please give me what vitamins this guy is taking. What energy. Looks like a fun tune to play. I need to change gears so searching for a NICE gentle tune. : -)))) Guess that is the female in me. : -)
True, but I like it better when it sounds good AND is skillful, those two go together excellently.
thats the style from DON ROSS
its unbelieveable and he can speak german issnt it GREAT?
well done don :D
all you guys at candyrat records need to get together and tour the east coast, philly in particular.
@bryansouza xD he's a football (soccer) player who comes from Pernambuco ^^.
