It's already a masterpiece when Calum wrote this for solo guitar in the first place, but Don Ross even took this piece to the higher level of beauty. IMHO Don Ross is the best player for duo-play, no doubt.
I agree completely. I fell in love with his Ebon Coast duet performance with Andy McKee. It's all about filling the spaces that feel best to you, and he feels a lot musically. The man is incredible.
I honestly think don ross is just such a great guy to collaborate with that he can write with almost anyone who has good feel lol But for sure some definite chemistry :D
Absolutely beautiful. This song makes me think of the late nights I had as a kid, hanging out with my friends in my old neighborhood. Thank you for that...
Don Ross is very generous sound-maker. This partnership with Calum Graham reminds me the awesome Andy Mckee & Don Ross encounter, a couple of years ago.
This is still some of the best stuff I’ve heard that is strictly acoustic. Absolutely lovely vibes gentleman, can’t give enough thanks. Truly amazing to listen to every time i turn it on
Just... pure delight. TH-cam somehow brought this back around in front of me, years after I first listened to these wonderful gents’ duet album. Calum’s composition is melodic, airy, funky in places, groovin’... all at the same time. And it is brought to life in magnificent fashion by the deft musical touch and extraordinary chemistry between the two of them. I can understand why Don is pleased and proud of this collab. An understated, sweet masterpiece of expression and connection. I’m an admiring fan of both of them, for life.
This song to me, is the sound of love and discovery. I first heard it back in 2014 when I was starting my first relationship. At that time I was also starting college. When I hear it I'm instantly brought back to that time. When I hear this, love is in the air, love is in my heart.
I probably have not listened this masterpiece for 4 or 5 years. Somehow I remembered of it today and now after listening this again my passion for guitar playing is restored. Thanks for that Calum and Don.
Don and Calum, thank you for this. The melody is perfect, harmonies are perfect, and this song has a way of bringing out a sense of joy and serenity. Coming from a fellow musician I appreciate you two, and the others like you. Thanks again!
These two have Mastered Storytelling with their fingers, dancing across the fret boards, effortlessly hitting the sweets spots as they pluck harmonic's and then dive right back in the tension of the minors then resurfacing back to the melodious beauty. Today I took a ride on the magic carpet of 12:34....and I sense I felt the the Muse that sprinkled this tune to them....she is lushous and lovely... Respect to you both... I'd like to hear it in 432hz Bravo and beyond ~*
It's mesmerizing to find two guys that "just met", making a masterpiece on the fly in sync keeping it fresh and creative while both lead and follows at the same time playing simultaneously through the entire song while none of them slowing down for the other or starting a contest for the lead Their commitment into making beauty instead of proving themselves is the incarnation of art
You two shine playing together. What a wonderful example of the creativity and brilliance of humanity. I thank you indeed. In fact I'm going to replay it right now. I'm 60 years young and finally getting very serious about playing fingerstyle guitar and being able to play the written note(s).
What a great song. My favorite to this day is the don ross/andy mckee ebon coast duo. I'll listen to that song all day long on repeat and never get tired of it.
Wow. As a guitar player and bass player for many years. What you guys are doing is an absolute creation of 2 masters of their craft. Unbelievably amazing
Don Ross is such an amazing accompanist, and Calum's song writing is superb as always. Man, just when I thought the acoustic guitar couldn't be played anymore skillfully and beautifully! I wish I had even half the skill these guys have.
Thank you Don, for staying young and musically open-minded. And thank you Calum, for keeping Don young and fresh. I am super happy that Don can stay "in the front" of the fingerstyle movement, since he got me into it in the first place.
Nice song with just Calum playing, absolutely beautiful with Don augmenting it!!! I can't count the times I've listened to this song. It moved me to buy the CD. Don & Calum - Lightning can strike twice. :-) I'm really impressed guys! Thanks!
Thanks for all the positivity, folks! :-)
+Don Ross much love
Keep playing like that, and you'll get all the positivity you can handle. :)
THANK YOU FOR EXISTING!
Thanks for all the great music man!!!
Bro I fucking love u
Anyone else listening in 2021? Now more than ever we need to surround ourselves with love, beauty and intelligence. Thanks guys.
After 3 years, this is still the best guitar duet I've ever seen
See "Spirit of the West" with Don Ross and Andy McKee. :)
ezcomezgo11 I love both...
Caleb Kyle Claro u a bitch
After 6 years it's still awesome! =P
2:32 - 2:44 are the most beautiful chords Ive ever heard. Wow!
It's already a masterpiece when Calum wrote this for solo guitar in the first place, but Don Ross even took this piece to the higher level of beauty. IMHO Don Ross is the best player for duo-play, no doubt.
Yup! No ego... Just an awesome dude to get the song EVEN further!
I agree completely. I fell in love with his Ebon Coast duet performance with Andy McKee. It's all about filling the spaces that feel best to you, and he feels a lot musically. The man is incredible.
How do you even write something like this? True chemistry in their playing.
I honestly think don ross is just such a great guy to collaborate with that he can write with almost anyone who has good feel lol But for sure some definite chemistry :D
Didn't know Don used a 7 for this. Pretty cool. CandyRat should organize a CGF winners' tour for the winter.
When I listen to this it feels like I’m on another planet🌎 The inner peace and love this radiates is tremendous✨✨ Who else agrees❓
You two compliment each other so much!! So Beautiful and Exhilarating !
Calum Graham and Don Ross, thank you for making my 10 hour study sessions bearable. You inspire me.
Absolutely beautiful. This song makes me think of the late nights I had as a kid, hanging out with my friends in my old neighborhood. Thank you for that...
Don Ross is one of the most joyous musicians! It’s hard not feel your spirit lift listening to his compositions and performances!!
Don Ross is very generous sound-maker. This partnership with Calum Graham reminds me the awesome Andy Mckee & Don Ross encounter, a couple of years ago.
Masterpiece!!!
This is some gorgeous music. I like Antoine Dufour and Andy McKee and just happened to stumble on this. Really lovely stuff.
This is still some of the best stuff I’ve heard that is strictly acoustic. Absolutely lovely vibes gentleman, can’t give enough thanks. Truly amazing to listen to every time i turn it on
Simply awesome!

God bless Don Ross for taking the time and energy to work with these young finger style players.
You're the man, Don.
JUST found this channel today: Put it on Autoplay and there was my office music for the day.
These two have Mastered Storytelling with their fingers, dancing across the fret boards, effortlessly hitting the sweets spots as they pluck harmonic's and then dive right back in the tension of the minors then resurfacing back to the melodious beauty. Today I took a ride on the magic carpet of 12:34....and I sense I felt the the Muse that sprinkled this tune to them....she is lushous and lovely...
Respect to you both...
I'd like to hear it in 432hz
Bravo and beyond ~*
I still love this. A lot.
great composition. I'd also love to say I adore the video setting and composition. Great staging. Lovely. Lovely. Lovely.
It's mesmerizing to find two guys that "just met",
making a masterpiece on the fly
in sync
keeping it fresh and creative
while both lead and follows at the same time
playing simultaneously through the entire song
while none of them slowing down for the other
or starting a contest for the lead
Their commitment into making beauty instead of proving themselves is the incarnation of art
What a superb duet. Inspiring material, played with impeccable precision & divine tuning and interaction.
