    Beethoven once referred to the guitar as "the little orchestra," which is certainly possible in the right hands...and he definitely possesses those. One of the best listeners/players I've ever seen.

      So true. Low budget entertainment by anyone without need of expensive equipment. But, as usual. Greed of people and rich, came in with their mom and dad's accounts buying 5k USD cameras and backdrops building studios and using high end software to show a phone or anything .....millions of subs. But monetizing works for them so why not? I'm not just a hater. I suck as a TH-camr too. LMAO

    Speechless... just amazing. I've been listening to this song since it came out in 1973... Young Mr. Nishimura apparently wasn't born until 2003, and didn't have a guitar to play until 2008..
    He did not waste his Time... I bet he has put in thousands and thousands of hours of practice ... and now has shared this timeless masterpiece that he has mastered and made his own..
    Simply outstanding, Mr. Nishimura..... thank you.

Kent, you do on a single guitar (overlayed), what it takes 4 musicians to perform. I am continually amazed at your ability to do the entire arrangement. Non-musicians appreciate your talent, but probably not as much as musicians do. Thank you for your dedication to your art.

      Yep!!! I'll go with that! I keep telling people he's not old enough at 18 to be this good! It takes 40+ years to get to this level!!!! I've been playing for right at 40 and I'm not even half way there with people telling me all the time how amazingly talented I am.
      That musical soul you speak of is probably around 180 or more!!!!

    Kent, you master, you’ve done it again. Pink Floyd is no easy task, and to get it with such tight intonation and masterful fidelity is a remarkable accomplishment at any age, let alone 17. I’m blown away by you every single time. I hope that you will stay humble as your talent takes you places... humility will protect you from a lot of what the most talented people go through, and I genuinely hope that in 20 years time I will still hear your name and marvel at what you’ve accomplished.

My only issue with their playing is they refuse to let go and just play! You know? They could be so much better and greater than they are but they're afraid to let loose. Ken does not have this problem. I'm a latina female sax player, I have no issues letting loose. Now if the police would just let me be, I'll be off the table and out of Olive Garden in a jiffy!

Thank you, Nishimura, for this incredible arrangement.
