Tommy subtly makes Molly the center of this event, and that in itself is actually a tremendously valuable “guitar lesson.”
Respect.
@@robertclement8640 That wasn't my interpretation. For a guitarist of Emmanuel's stature, it shows his humility (which isn't all that surprising for him).
Well, she is the center and blows him out of the water.
@@swampscott2670What a silly statement. They're both fantastic.
Agreed. Several times Tommy is asked a question but defers to Molly as he seems keen for her to display her right hand techniques. Both are virtuosos in their own right but this is a great lesson in how to showcase each other’s strengths.
I don't think he meant it in a negative way. Tommy is great at taking the back seat. Is a curious player in that respect, allowing whoever he plays with to take the lead so to speak and allowing them to play whatever they would like artistically.
I’ve never seen Tommy be less than 100% full of joy and enthusiasm when playing. Fantastic to watch.
He came to our center for the performing arts where I work as a stagehand and house photographer. He was as kind and gracious as any performer as I've ever encountered. Wonderful man who treats people as well as he plays the guitar. The performance was over the top as usual.
Yeah, I had met him years ago. Just as enthusiastic about meeting people!
Just pure joy and passion oozing from him
If you the player are having fun it’s hard for your audience not to feel something good. Unless you just stink of course. These 2 are amazing of course.
He definitely has the endorphins flowing.
Tommy Emmanuel has got to be one of the nicest human beings on the planet. The way he lets Molly shine is a lesson in humility. I had a huge smile on face all the through.
I believe I could play with Tommy and he’d make me look like i know what I’m doing. 😊
he is a consumate professional
7:28 "Here she comes!" Tommy's way of saying "check THIS shit out!" Love the synergy here; both total pros.
The truly great ones have nothing left to prove. Encourage the other player to to shine and watch that Jam shine
The best musicians always seem to have to goal of making the best musical decisions for the sake of the song.
Sometimes that means pulling back.
No one is more important than the song.
Unfortunately, not everyone gets that...
Had the pleasure of seeing these two great guitarists play together last night. It was Absolutely fantastic!!!
I saw them on Thursday. Molly is a world class seasoned performer. And Tomny is even better. Anyone who can write a song like Initiation is truly a once in a lifetime talent. I struggle to think of a better show I've seen.
My wife and I saw them at the New Brighton Pavilion 26th Jan, like you say Absolutely fantastic.
@@alshazzjust went passed the poster for this very one today(Tuesday). Gutted I missed it! I’d have definitely got a ticket for it if I knew!
Hopefully they will be back because the reception they got was incredible. We both walked out saying crikey what have we just seen.
We saw them earlier in the tour.
I bought the tickets because I had really wanted to see Molly for ages. She was great, tho' I wish she'd played for longer... Tommy was probably the best acoustic player I've ever seen! I knew who he was & what to expect, my friend didn't know him at all & was blown away! Mike Dawes joined Tommy for a couple of tunes too, which was a nice bonus.
I had the good fortune to witness an outstanding show from these 2 in Shrewsbury last week. One thing I love about this video is the fact that there appears to be no ego from Tommy. The fact that he allows Molly more time to speak than himself is a credit to his character.
Humilty and greatness...a special man.
I had to miss it as I was in Shrewsbury hospital, where I was confined for quite a while - one great event that I wanted to attend - but hey c'est la vie
@@45156 Sorry to hear that. Hope you are well and that you can catch them the next time they tour.
These two are the caliber of Musicians that you can't help but laugh while they're blowing your mind, meanwhile they're casually nodding each other on in approval like "Yeah!" and "Here she comes!"
Pure Joy through Music. Beautiful. Thank you for sharing this ❤
How have I reached the age of 70 without knowing Molly Tuttle? OMG she is an absolute goddess. What a fantastic guitarist and what an incredible voice.
oh man she's SO good. enjoy exploring her work!
It all fairness to you, she looks 20 years old.
This is my favorite performance of hers. She plays two incredible solos in this.

I'm 54 and just commented the same before I read your comment. Loved this introduction to her.
and shes cute to boot
This women is an incredible guitar player.
These two need to keep a fire extinguisher close by. That was absolute fire!
You’d expect that achieving total and complete mastery of the guitar would have given Tommy an ego, but no. Humble in the extreme, he always shifts attention and praise away from himself and to whoever he is playing with. What a good person, what a great heart.
I couldn’t possibly count how many videos of Tommy I’ve watched over the years. No matter what he’s playing or who he’s playing with, I always catch myself with a smile within the first few bars of the song. Being a lifelong guitar player myself, there’s not many folks that have that effect on me. It’s a wonderful thing
YES!
Absolutely!
He LOVES playing!
I mean, I love playing, but maybe an hour or two a day.
He plays at LEAST 8 hours a day!
That's love!
And I love how he appreciates other people's playing.
What an absolute joy that was to watch.
Is there anything that Tommy can't absolutely blow the top off when playing, wow.
Out of all the people I’ve seen Tommy play with, him and Molly together is my favorite combo
I just love how humble Tommy always is. A real gentleman and master
What a killer duo we have here! Love every second of that video.
Tommy is awesome but he let Molly shine because she is stellar. You can see the admiration for her playing and singing in his face. Kudos to him for not trying to outshine her because it would only have made him look bad.
Love seeing these videos with my guitar heros, both old and new.
Im Australian, and Tommy was one of the few people I had to look up to. With no Ineternet in the early 1990s, I would see Tommy play on one of the 5 or so free to air TV channels available to us.
Fast forward 30 years, and TH-cam has introduced me to artists like Molly, Billy Strings and more.
To see Tommy play with these guys and girls is so good.
I'd love to see him throw in with Angus Young just once...
I love Tommy,
I truly believe he is the best Guitarist in the world.
Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaage!
I suspect few guitarists would be able to confidently sit across from him but Molly can hang for sure...what a beast
You are right on both accounts.
Dear Lord....sooo beautiful from both. Kind of watched Molly work sooo hard over the last 5 years and seems like such a wonderful person. Wish her the very best...
I got the privilege of seeing this force of nature, this self taught, modest, genius three times over about four years. He's so simple, honest, talented beyond any measure. If you can possibly see him - Do It.! You will never forget it!
Both Tommy and Molly are absolute top class! Lovely video to watch and listen to.
Well as an Aussie Tommy is obviously a legend for us and others as well I guess. Gotta say thou that discovering Molly has been light a sweet spring breeze for me. Her vocals are simply perfect for her genre of music and her guitar technique is beyond sublime!
Listen to her cover of Helpless with the Influences.
Truly beautiful!
When I saw the remark "Insanely Good" I wasn't surprised because I knew Tommy Emmanuel as a genius guitar man... Now, when he played a duet with Molly Tuttle, whom I never knew before this very moment, I just got stunned at this performance... She really deserves to be entitled "The Queen Guitar Woman"... LOVE YOU BOTH...!!!
Tommy is such an artist, a character and a human being.
Had a pleasure of watching him live on a concert with 20000 people.
Afterwards, me and my friend waited for him to come out and sign a guitar.
Not only did he sign it, but spent a good 20min chatting with the two of us.
Love you Tommy, never change.
What a joy that White Freight Liner is, with these two riffing off each other - fantastic.
Molly is an absolute Rock Star!
Beating the strings off that guit-fiddle with absolutely beautiful sounds. That voice is stunning. Just can't say enough about this young ladies talents.
Tommy is a given for maximum output every time he plays and one of the top guitarist today.
Thanks for this entertainment!
Anyone who plays guitar knows just how good these two are. On electric, it's easy to be lazy and assisted by the amp, especially the more distortion and sustain you add. That Tommy plays almost exclusively acoustic is obvious, as he has some of the cleanest, quickest picking you'll ever see. First time seeing Molly, but her skill level is obviously very high. Great stuff, especially for beginners or intermediates.
I don't care who Tommy plays with. He's 100% class. Never outplays anyone. ❤
lol what do you even mean by this. HE blew her out of the water. But he's allowed to. He's 70 years old and GOATED. She's just a kid compared to him. Tommy jammed with fucking Lenny Breau, Chet Atkins, Bucky Pizzarrelli... Molly has got a long way to go lol.
Molly's "Take the Journey" which she plays some at the end is a fantastic song. Her vocals as she demonstrates on "White Freightliner Blues" are superb.
Thanks. Beautiful brilliant playing. Anyone who doesn’t like this has something wrong with them. Amazing
I have seen them each live. Tommy once, and Molly 6x. I have the autographed ticket stubs in my wallet to prove it.They are both masters, and yet there are things they can learn from each other. These two rubbing elbows, teaching, and learning from each other could change guitar as we know it. Molly has Tommy playing with a flat-pick, and she is passing on the Clawhammer too. My brain will melt when I see Molly start playing percussion on her guitars. Tommy is one of the most engaging performers I've ever seen on a stage. He is a one man show most of the time, and he holds the room in his hand all night. I am so hoping that this is just a warmup for an American Tour! Molly, please bring Tommy home to "The Guild" next time you are here.
This is the most fun video I've ever seen. Two all time favorite players!
Yeah this is James from the states I must admit that I too am 73 and have been playing guitar for about 50 years and I have to say that it always blows me away how the young people can seem to just zoom past us who we thought were relatively good guitar players 40 years ago when we were comparing ourselves to people like Jimmy Page or Jeff Beck and I have to say now that there's no comparison to the new breed of players just out of sight. Hats off to them!
This was a real 'pick' me up on a Sunday Morning:)
Two of the best guitarists in the world. Thanks for sharing this gem, a real treat to watch 🎸🤠👍
Man - I could only wish to play like either one of them. Talk about gifted. 👏🏻😊🥂.
What an outstanding duet! Even Tommy's voice (not the stronger of his musical assets) perfectly in sync and complementary to Molly's vocal lead
It's nice to see 2 vastly different generations come together and enjoy each other's playing. Truly two of the best.
Molly & Tommy -- Wow !!! What pleasure to watch
Tommy is a legend that every guitar player respects and admires, I’ve never heard Molly and she is an extraordinary talent. Thank you for posting this. Tommy’s humility and willingness to divert the spotlight is so refreshing
Tommy and Molly's harmony is just delightful. This was such a treat to watch!
Love it all. Tommy has a rather large vocabulary of "chops" and is so wonderfully dedicated to making the music better in any way he can. Molly sings and plays beautifully🥰
I can only wish:
a) to see them play together or,
b) see them play solo or,
c) had one/quarter of their skill.
Love them both!
I did see them both recently... Yes, definitely go to see them if they ever play near you!
How do you not have that much excitement playing with such an amazing beautiful conscientious delightful energetic fantastic genuine harmonious inventive justifiably knowledgeable loving meticulous noteworthy optimistic personal and she plays that guitar so gracefully beautiful It appears effortless and then she sings ….I melted…Tommy thank u 4 sharing! (U were pretty good 2.)Haha
Thanks again
Johnny from Carmel,Ca.
By the end of this clip my cheeks hurt from smiling so hard! What an absolute joy that was to watch.
Hard to be anything but in awe.
Tommy Emmanuel - the man with the child in his eyes.
Two of the finest guitarists in the world, smashing it right there', We are so lucky to have them in our life time
HOT DAMN THAT'S SOME SERIOUS PICKIN AND GRINNIN!!!! Made my heart wanna jump right out of my chest!!!
Absolute Masters. Very few can come close to this level of playing. I wish more guitar players would pick up on Bluegrass cause its really the happiest forms of music, It makes ya smile and makes ya wanna get up and jump around, spin around and clap your hands and stomp your feet. Thanks for doing this series, You make people smile
Molly is the greatest! Her flat pic technique is insane! Not from this world! And besides she is a great musician too! I am following her for several years! Two great masters each one of a kind! Thanks a lot for sharing! Love it! Cheers DimiZ
Listening to both of you will get me through my day…You are fantastic as people and of course, A+ musicians! Thank you Guitarist for putting this video together for us to watch over and over again!
They are so good. It's just a pure joy to watch them having fun with the music, and each other.
Your voices sound great together! You should make an album collaboration. Enjoyed watching you two play off each other and having fun.
Molly's inventiveness is outstanding and the musical communication here is a model of cooperation and - to coin a phrase - harmony!
I've heard her name before, but I haven't heard Molly play before. I came to hear Tommy, but will definitely be watching for her going forward.
Doc and Merle would be proud!
Amazing jamming by Tommy, he's just purely having a good time, what a man.
I have never enjoyed listening to acoustic guitar as much as I did during this video! SUPERB.
I wish everybody was as lovely as these two people.
Saw both of this pair live in Buxton last week absolutely fantastic what a night.
Me too. Buxton was brilliant
Unreal, looks so effortless and fluid. The amount of hours/days/months/years and possibly tears that goes into getting to this level. Much respect!
When two amazing people who are also phenomenal musicians get together it's like gold! Really great interview!
Very inspiring to me. Drives me to learn every time I watch people like this
Have heard her sing this in multiple formats - studio, live show and an interview. She nails it every time.
Good golly Miss Molly ❤️ your work
I've always loved Molly's White Freightliner Blues, with the addition of Mr Emmanuel it's just sublime!!!!
Some jam, Molly melts hearts with her natural play and vocals, Tom is just the backing duo.... hehe love it, claw hammer schooled I was!
Lord have mercy these two Belong Together Musically , is to the point where I would recognize these guys just from their hands in motion.... this is straight up good music
Wow amazing levels of talent, both are special players and people 😊
Best 15 minutes I have spent on YOU-Tube!! What great artists!
What a joy to watch and listen too! Thanks Guitarist, and thanks to Molly and Tommy....wonderful! 🙏
I have a lot of Molly Tuttle on my playlist and lover her voice..I didn't know that she is also an amazing guitar player.
This video was a great treat!
That music makes me SMILE BIG.
I have no words... when these two get together, it's magical!❤
I always noticed Molly picking hand is closed and Tommy’s is open. I hold my pick like Tommy. I tried closing my hand like Molly but just can’t do it. I saw her at a small coffee house in Charlottesville, Va. years ago when she only had her EP out. She was just awesome and easy to speak with👍🏻.
Anchoring also isn't the greatest idea. Can lead to injury.
Tommy always makes someone playing along with him the centerpiece of the performance.
The joy and appreciation of both the instrument and music comes across so brilliantly in Molly and Tommy. Both incredible musicians and from what I´ve seen unbelievably nice / cool / friendly *add a positive adjective people. 10/10!
What a pleasure to watch these two play together. Masters of their craft. Great Vid.
This is gold thanks for posting it.
Just amazing all around. Love seeing these 2 jam.
two of the very best. lovely to see them together!
Tommy‘s shirt is amazing 😮
Yeah, I could watch these two all day.
Absolutely sooo good !
Two of my favorite guitar players and individuals! Always a blessing to hear them play together!
Saw them live this weekend and hands down the best concert ive ever been too. Thanks for the awesoms music TE and MT ❤
A couple of legends here. Tommy’s musical vocabulary is immense, but here I slightly prefer Molly’s note choices. That’s just to my ears though…it’s all well played.
To each their own, Tommy is a master of breaking out of the typical pentatonic scale and comes up with something I haven't already heard. That's the art of his playing.
What a simply amazing video of these two Great Guitarist's, the improvisational way of playing from them both is really a Treat, WOW 😮😊😮
I enjoyed every second of this!
Y'all are two incredible talents, awesome
Oh, my gerd! As these two priceless muses of the muses where painting an exceptional landscape of strings and voice, TH-cam thought it best to play an advert. Hah! It took a lot of willpower to not throw my keyboard at the screen. 😊 I am in such awe of Molly's musical artistry and Tommy is a legend. 🌸
Oh , that's not fair you can only click LIKE once
this is way to good . and look how much FUN they have .
Talent, elegance and simplicity. What a delight!
My two favorite guitar players. Amazing!
Thanks, great! I saw them both playing this week too. Just fantastic.
These two are great and having fun!!
Out of this world, so cool! And yes, it seems so effortless. Thank you for showing and explaining your skills so openly! ☺️ It‘s so great just listen to both of you playing together respecting each others style and mastery. So cool!
I couldn’t stop smiling. Thanks.
That was freaking awesome both of you are talented and amazing!
