Number one and number two all over the world, or perhaps, the two number one all over the world. playing toghether, great frieds, what a miracle, what a miracle of music.
Listening to these two makes me so happy. That there is this much talent in the world just amazes me. Once upon a time I got guitar lessons from Tommy as he was a friend of mine and believe it or not, he played drums in my band. He can play anything! I wanted to be a great guitarist like Tommy but the gig was already taken. I didn’t have it in me to play for 16 hours a day which is what it requires. I branched into songwriting and singing and I love all three. I don’t hang out with Tommy any more but I love to hear him play, especially when he plays with Richard.
The level of musicianship of these two men is incredible. Tommy is Australian, Richard is English playing to an American audience…and me a Canadian appreciating very much. Chet Atkins was unique, so was Jerry Reed. Together they were magical! That last piece had me tearing up😭
I attended their guitar camp this past September. Lessons and non stop guitar. Richard and Tommy both say there are not short cuts. Just hard work. Richard in particular drove that point home.
"Serenade to Summetime", I learned this song from an 8 track in the 70s, which I still have. It still brings a tear when I hear it as it was one of my Dads favorites. Thank you so much. I love you guys!!
Two of the very best -- you'll do yourself a big favor going to see these two in person - being there with a great sound system is incredible. Check out Richard Smith doing "The Entertainer" and Tommy - well, there's not much more that can be said for him -- if Chet Atkins gave him the Certified Guitar Player honor enough said. Thanks Guys!
I don' t think even Jerry Reed himself ever played "Lightning Rod" this fast! These are the two premier performers in this style at the moment, and dare I say it, I think they've well and truly overtaken Atkins, Reed & Co. Good luck to them - they've reached the top of a very slippery pole.

We a so lucky to hear two such accomplished musicians. Then they play together and work their magic.
THIS is genuine talent in each and every tone: All glory to our heavenly Father! 😍

I had the pleasure of seeing these two in Fort Myers, FL about 5 years ago. It was a life changing experience. What a night
Probably two of the most skilled and complementary players you will ever see or hear togethet 😊😊❤
Wonderfully played. Two of my favorite fingerstyle suitarists.
How good it must feel for you to play together!!! Love it!!

Richard performed with Chet when he was only 11 years old. If Chet had lived long enough, Richard would have gotten the CGP award from Chet.
Thanks for the Jerry Reed tunes
U r welcome mate
Two of the best. Thanks for the upload.
They should write a song called "Smile City" because that's where I go when I watch either one of these guys play!!!

I want to like this more than just once 🤣
Stunning playing. I definitely should have started playing a few years earlier 😐
In my case, about 120 years earlier....
Consummate artistry!
thank you!!!!
I'd say that was more than "OK" ;)
Great guitarists.
We have now words!
Молодцы !
very sensible .
Pure joy and professionalism. San Antonio Stroll, third tune?
Nashtownville!
Two people who are equal to a big band. Pays to practice.
What is really amazing is Richards guitar has no strings!
Ok Ok, he has one string.
I guess there's magic in the world after all.
Richard ❤
Can anybody tell me the names of the pieces they played? I only know the last one 😁
Note the monitors, no ear phones.
What do you mean?
@@coryCuc They are using the stage monitor,not in ear monitors which are used by musicians for hearing protection.
