I am so impressed by Doyle's great guitar artistry and also with that of Tommy Emmanuel. They play together so well too!! Doyle is certainly blessed with much talent and he always gives credit to God for blessing him with it!!
just saw this guy perform in a small venue and all I can say is wow. What a musician and my friend told me I should listen to his coldplay medaly. speechless.
This guy is an inspiration to all budding guitarist, his playing skill and the feeling in his playing! also the tone of that "Taylor guitar" is so sweet and crisp!!!!
I'm old enough to like the "Be Still" lead in because I understand it's meaning, but when he started the Cold Play, tears came to my eyes and I felt like I had heard his heart! Awesome!!!
The audience didn't render enough applause. If I was there, I'd be on my feet shouting! This performance never gets old! What Mr. Dykes does here is nothing short of masterful - genius.
I've seen Tommy several times but Doyle might be my favorite, even took a lesson from him once; very personable and humble guy. I know he sold a few guitars for Taylor and I absolutely love my 416LTD. "Inspiration is wherever you find it" Thanks Doyle
This man inspires me to keep practicing the guitar in the hope that, some day, I can have even a fraction of the talent that he does. Doyle, thank you for your inspirational music and everything you do =)
Please play the entire song, Be Still, here on TH-cam, so I can share it with friends. It has helped me to be strong, through tough times. The song is truly blessed. I'm grateful, Doyle. I'm, Kim. A friend of Jeannie and Pierre's. We met briefly at Total Entertainment, in Daytona. Thank you for this amazing, comforting treasure!
Stephen Powell I owned a Taylor DDSM, and it is the very best guitar I have played among the many guitars I have owned. It is exquisitely playable with no defect, and it sounds as good as it is possible for a guitar to sound, amplified or not. I almost cried when I was forced to sell it, and I am not much for crying.
Saw him live and it was an hour and a half of this stuff! He is a very humble Christian guy who is very involved with his family. EVERYTHING he plays is so incredibly clean! No telling how many Taylors he's responsible for selling. He sold me...
Went to a clinic of his yesterday... Very, very Impressive technique; I've learned a lot in a couple of hours... Also a very humble and genuine person.... got my guitar signed :D
People should understand that at this level there simply isn't a such of a thing as the "best guitar player". There is nothing on earth that Doyle or Tommy cannot play and with absolute command of the instrument. I haven't had the pleasure of watching Tommy Emmanuel play in person, but to watch Doyle Dykes in concert is an amazing experience, I can assure you. I love Tommy's work and he is an exceptional guitarist as well, I just wish he would stop beating on the damn thing, or take up the drums.
Doyle's my favorite (and the the best) guitar picker. However, there are many singers that I think are better in technique. Having said that, I feel his singing is part of his ministry. In that respect I enjoy and am inspired by his total performance.
It seems while looking at these vids, I've stumbled once again upon another Doyle/Tommy thread. sorry about the reply to just bigaggaie, but I keep hearing Tommy this, and Doyle that- and nary ever is there a mention of Scotty Anderson, who, if he stepped on a stage anywhere where they were, they would BOTH sit down, and go to school in awe. No one knows Scotty for a couple of reasons. He mostly doesn't leave Ohio, and he's TRULY humble.
Doyle's an amazing guitarist. A great talent, but I don't believe his gift if from god like he does..... He worked very hard and deserves the credit himself !
I love this version of this song, I didnt even know who he was until two days ago, he played at a really local guitar shop in renton washington and it was awesome... does anyone know how hard it is to play this?
Hey, did he bring any T-Rex pedals with him? He borrowed some from the store I saw him play in, and he said he loved them a lot, so I was wondering if he took some home after the gig.
Doyle is probably the more proficient and technical fingerstyle player of him and TE, but Tommy has got so much more in his arsenal that makes up for it. I really don't think you can say definitively one is "better" than the other. If you really want proof of this, search "emmanuel dykes" and listen to them play together. They complement each other VERY well, though their styles are really pretty different.
only an average rating from me, not because of the guitar playing (can't fault that), but because somewhere in the middle the audio and video seem to drift apart. the audio comes across a fraction of a second too early which, sadly, i find too distracting to watch. still, even without watching the video, i still enjoy listening to it, so thanks for posting
Thanks for the Posting. A wonderful medley from DD, expressive and meaningful, with a great range of tone production. Lots of concentration and control to get the music out from the guitar. If you appreciate this type of playing, may I suggest you try a YT search for 'Isaac Guillory', and sample a few Clips? [Tyneside, England.]
Does anyone know if this is his own song or somebody else's ? (be still) . I can't seem to find its recording anywhere else, not even under him other then here
I am so impressed by Doyle's great guitar artistry and also with that of Tommy Emmanuel. They play together so well too!! Doyle is certainly blessed with much talent and he always gives credit to God for blessing him with it!!
One of the most pleasurable moments in my life seeing this man entertain ! God Bless Doyle !
Be not be holding so tænding in pray nighht ? Light do foxy troxtryty
WORK FORM Schithlor
Fabulous - This guy knows the guitar inside out - what a moving piece of music - this is why we listen to music !
just saw this guy perform in a small venue and all I can say is wow. What a musician and my friend told me I should listen to his coldplay medaly. speechless.
I'll never forget hearing Doyle and his family play this for Hank Garland ! Love you Doyle,
The Legendary Guitarist Hank Garland Family
This guy is an inspiration to all budding guitarist, his playing skill and the feeling in his playing! also the tone of that "Taylor guitar" is so sweet and crisp!!!!
everyone should watch him live. you'll leave not only in awe of his skill but of what a great guy he is in person.
I'm old enough to like the "Be Still" lead in because I understand it's meaning, but when he started the Cold Play, tears came to my eyes and I felt like I had heard his heart! Awesome!!!
Respect Doyle!
It's a joy to come and listen to some world class music!
Thanks
Jay

Doyle is an amazing guitarist. Saw this man live playing this and he blew my mind at a Taylor Guitars Workshop.
This video always takes long time to load. But it's worth it. An absolute favourite!
doyle is the best guitarist i ve ever seen, he is a true joy to watch
Doyle - You are the best... I really enjoy listening to your music. Truly Awesome.
Rest in Peace June my darling wife
Thanks Doyle for your music which helps me to cope with my grief.
God Bless
I've seen Tommy several times but Doyle might be my favorite, even took a lesson from him once; very personable and humble guy. I know he sold a few guitars for Taylor and I absolutely love my 416LTD. "Inspiration is wherever you find it" Thanks Doyle
Awesome great music. God bless you always Doyle.
This man inspires me to keep practicing the guitar in the hope that, some day, I can have even a fraction of the talent that he does.
Doyle, thank you for your inspirational music and everything you do =)
In times of tribulation, or in fact anytime is ok to listen to this from Doyle!
He's COOL!
The Coldplay medley consists of The Scientist, Yellow, and In My Place. Very beautiful.
Doyle plays this one with his heart.
one of nicest guys you ever meet
a great person all round
We Love you Doyle and are saddened on the passing of your dad "Bubba"
God Bless!
The best sound & player ever !!!

Doyle is just the greatest of all time.
There cannot be a better endorsement for Taylor guitars than this. Exquisite sound.
Stephen Powell I owned a Taylor DDSM, and it is the very best guitar I have played among the many guitars I have owned. It is exquisitely playable with no defect, and it sounds as good as it is possible for a guitar to sound, amplified or not. I almost cried when I was forced to sell it, and I am not much for crying.
B e a u t i f u l. What a sence of music, what a style. God this is nice. Thx
based on Psalm 46:10 (..as many-many songs throug ages),
but this one - it's DD masterpiece!!!
wow this guy is amazing, beautiful work with the coldplay songs!
I love the coldplay medley. Simply amazing
Simply Magnif!
[Tyneside, England.]
This just tops anything else Ive ever heard in my life before!
Wished I'd been to Knebworth
sorry I couldn't make it Doyle
i just saw Doyle Dykes and this was my favorite song, it really is about Chris Martin's mother. Beautiful song.
Saw him live and it was an hour and a half of this stuff! He is a very humble Christian guy who is very involved with his family. EVERYTHING he plays is so incredibly clean! No telling how many Taylors he's responsible for selling. He sold me...

I could not agree more that would be a treat for sure.

coldplay part is amazing!
awesome, good guitar playing and singing, god is awesome
You should check the videos out with Doyle and Tommy performing together, to legends together!
Doyle's my favorite (and the the best) guitar picker. However, there are many singers that I think are better in technique. Having said that, I feel his singing is part of his ministry. In that respect I enjoy and am inspired by his total performance.
A True Masterpiece!
I love the medley! Not usually a fan of fingerstyle but this is awesome!
great plucking my friend... beautiful sound
Playing is good. Nice chord structure and melody.
Solo is awesome. DD you're the best !
Brad.. as I posted here ..half a year ago - 'Be Still' was based on Psalm 46:10,
but that's original DD composition and.. MASTERPIECE!!!
Excellent Perfomance!
It seems while looking at these vids, I've stumbled once again upon another Doyle/Tommy thread.

Be Still - written by his brother Aubrey, an excellent musician in his own right!
Oh, I see. Well I really liked it, he sings very well.
If he’s ever playing in Oregon, I’ve got to see him.
Glory to God.
Dude Doyle is tight man i had lunch with him hes a great guy
Gods Proud Of You Doyle I'm Sure!
Love this guy
I saw him do a clinic at a music storeyears ago, the guy is amazing..

This is great! I love that first song (and Coldplay), is "Be Still" an original?

scary. the talent of ten.
Sweet Lullaby
Hey, have you got the tabs for the coldplay medley part, cause I liked it very much. But i couldn't find it on the web! Thanks :)
thanks man!
what i find amazing is that he can play a good part of the coldplay medley with his eyes closed
only an average rating from me, not because of the guitar playing (can't fault that), but because somewhere in the middle the audio and video seem to drift apart. the audio comes across a fraction of a second too early which, sadly, i find too distracting to watch.
still, even without watching the video, i still enjoy listening to it, so thanks for posting
pwah! that's amazing

@MrAlessior I think Tommy Emmanuel is extremely talented and I don't know if there is any better than him
one of the best if not best acoustic...watch some buckethead though

Yeah, I'd love the tab for the Coldplay Medley!
andy mckee, justin king, erik mongrain, don ross, tommy emmanuel(sp?)

Does anyone know if this is his own song or somebody else's ? (be still) . I can't seem to find its recording anywhere else, not even under him other then here
