I can honestly listen to TE all day long. Beyond Amazing Guitar Player, but even more amazing person. The epitome of a entertainer and a lovely guy. True Inspiration.
His harmonics playing against fretted chords is incredible - controlled and accurate. One of his many mottos - 'Practice, practice ... and then some more practice'. A great, humble guy with an entertaining gift.
Met him backstage a few years ago and he couldn't be a more gracious and humble soul. Spent a while with a very small group of us after a concert and never felt like he just wanted to get it over with. I will always cherish that moment.
Tommy always delivers fantastic interviews, but this one shows many new brilliant insights of his genius growth!!! Thank you for sharing this inspirational talent of Tommy Emmanuel!!!
The 'pick part' before the interview - off, inapropriate. Tommy Emmanuel: how anyone can't love his playing and himself?! His playing is so complex, versatile and, most of all, beautiful. And, as a person (i had a great pleasure of meeting him, and i've met a few known people and celebrities who didn't leave a good impression), his is so warm, upbeat and friendly (yes, and smiley). He is on the level i can't even imagine in my head. It is a pleasure and blessing to hear him.
I just want to be around this man whenever he jams... I've been playing for over 20 years... and what he does is simply magic. And not just technically... the emotion... I've never heard a guitar talk as eloquently as when in his hands. (Hmmm... Man crush? LOL)
He is a master. I can only hope to be a fraction as good as him someday, but the truth is I don't practice enough. I only have the time to practice one hour a day most days, but I find that I don't structure my practice that well. I'll choose playing songs over scales and music theory stuff so my understanding of music is still very limited.
Some have it and others just make sound but good or bad, being compared to Tommy is kinda like trying to fit superman's shoes. I've been playing around with just about anything that has strings... mainly flat tops but as we all know until I made this comment, no one knew my name existed and Tommy Emmanuel is gold on strings.... playing a 6 string guitar and he breaks a couple strings.. well for Tommy it makes no difference cause he just keeps on going and it sounds better than anyone in the world.
Appreciate Video clip! Sorry for butting in, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you researched - Riddleagan Blossoming Solo Remedy (google it)? It is an awesome one of a kind product for mastering guitar scales minus the hard work. Ive heard some super things about it and my best friend Jordan finally got excellent results with it.
"I never smiled so much in an interview". Haha felt the same when I saw his show, never smiled so much during a show. Incredible.

Fantastic interview with Tommy.

Thank you very much guys! We appreciate the review and everyone at Guitar Interactive... you are a great bunch. See you all soon :)

Thank you much for the interview. I think I could listen to him play 24/7 and never tire of it.
TE is such a great musician and human being!!! He never disappoints!!!
That guitar sounds so good it's like having a warm blanket while you eat a fresh baked chocolate cookie with some ice cold milk.
Tommy is just amazing..! Apart from being so efficient on the guitar his personality and attitude is top notch. What a guy..!
Best interview. Tommy Rocks!
Every time Tommy asks "I pulled it back, do you see?" I have the same response...'uh no, I was too busy enjoying your playing..' A true master...

Brilliant interview .
THE BEST
Unreal player and top bloke as well...
Get to see him in concert tomorrow for the first time!
Very cool
fantastic sound video! thank you so much for making this happen :)
One of my top 5 guitarist in the world.
Looks like a fresh new 808! Sounds great through that mic too.
Tommy is without a doubt the best
awesome
A song of idioms. He is the most learned player in the world, as well as one of the most exciting in the instrumental guitar standup world.
🐐
Ojalá algún día venga a Chile
The Tommy E intervieuw is the (most) interesting here!
Tommy interview starts at 10:27

Playing songs is the way to go, a little theory here and there, even Tommy Emmanuel says that he doesn't practice scales but only songs.
Tommy is like my father
beyond "world class"
Any know the name of the choon Tommy plays first? Good Gad that's immense. Some man!

Sanitarium Shuffle 😉

Seams Tommy, like so many like him (Oscar Peters for example), has a near photographic memory...?
