Not very commercial stuff in the age of over-hyped pop music, but there is no substitute for talent.
This is just so damn good, and I am very thankful for it. Beautiful music, played with feeling and style.
no doubt
The age of over hyped pop has been around since the 50s. Excluding arrow records of course
@@djohawk True, but over-hyping was pretty tame during the 50's.
Richard Smith is truly one of the best finger style players ever..a real musical genius.
The musicians take pleasure in each others' solos. Life-affirming music-making . . .
Fantastic, they aren't only musicians but magicians too.
Yes, I totally agree!!!
I agree. Fantastic..
@@lilithrogers5204 I agree.
These musicians are incredible nice to see how much in control they are - everything falls to place and tie up so well
This is how every aspiring musician would love to be one day
Such beautiful music makes the world a better place. Thank you for sharing.
Well said 👏👏✌️
Best yet !!!
Amen
Hey you brothers have mucho rhythm man,excellent playing please be well and keep playing really excellent sounds Chur

Richard Smith is a brilliant guitarist!
Great , I will replay it ten times tonight.....Thanks. That crowd got a real treat.
"I'll See You In My Dreams" A classic! Magnificent!
thank you
Richard Smith, alone or with his band, is an exceptional guitarist.
Otamar de Carvalho, Brasília-DF, Brazil
That was damn fantastic. I went from Elvis to mettalica and celtic frost to Richard Smith. Damb music is good .
Damb music is my favorite kind of music.
Very awesome 😎 he can really pick and the band is great too
That’s a great ride
A música de verdade não tem cor, ritmo, nacionalidade muito menos intenção. Ela acontece e flui, simplesmente.
Oooohhh this is in a class all of its own, wow! Just simply fabulous. These guys are the best. What a treat, thanks guys, super.
I love every song he plays. It’s so precise and he never misses a note.
Richard is so technically amazing, as a guitarist, his right hand work is just flawless! Makes it look easy.... but if you've ever tried it, it's not!!! Bravo, Richard! Saw him at a house concert earlier this year, the man is one of the finest fingerstyle players I've ever, ever seen! Just mind-blowing ability!
Sorry, but I disagree with your opinion. I think he is very good guitarist but the guy on his right (left, as you look at the screen)-I believe his name is Bina Coquet is a category better....His fingers are faster and his plucking is right on time, where Rich has few near misses and he is late. Rich might be famous, but Bina is unmistakably better.....I just have to add, that in any case, it is a beautiful show and guitar playing, no mistake about it! I love it! Didn't want to make negative impression...
Just so Ed, Just so. RS from England too. Who would have thought that? That Django - Grappelli influence is in there too. And CA - MT - What about me? Not a faint chance. I lie beaten not even on the battle-field. The world can be so cruel.
Love
@@jiritichy6855 absolutely right!
Yes. Artless. You watch and think, I could play that with enough practice. Oh no you can't!
I am only 16 and I'm proud of adoring this kind of music ♡
bro this music is hard not to adore
You are so lucky!!!
Brava!!!👏👏👏
Be hard to find someone more deserving of your time Lubrano Lisa...
Most know Richard Smith a Thumbpicker. He is one of the best! I heard him as a 12 yr old getting on stage with the Great Chet Adkins. He was already a wonderful guitar Thumbpicker.
I saw Richard with his brothers at Croydon Town Hall library about 25 years ago, I was amazed by his talent then and still am (the whole band is incredible of course). Thank you for such wonderful music. Richard's Lullaby for Madeleine is one of my favourite songs. Thanks
So dang classy and beautiful!! I love this stuff, man. These guys seem like they grew up playing music around camp fires with some intense love and dedication making that camp fire music really sing. Gosh... I love, love this stuff. It hits me just right. Thank you, guys!!
Wow! Amazing. I wish my Father was still around to hear you guys. My Dad loved the Hot Cub of France, I was just a kid in the ‘50’s when he would play their music on the old 78 record record player in our living room. Well done gentlemen.👍👍
We are probably close to the same generation. I recall my dad playing guitar & singing after dinner during that period. Sometimes a few friends would visit with their guitars, mandolins. Before TV there was a lot of that type of socializing. People have always needed that but right after WWII they needed it more.
Sounds like kids all over the world had fathers with the same taste in music. Early 60's this is the music that was played in our house too. Dad and his mates used to jam in the living room with guitar violin and harmonica. I loved it. Wish he could hear this..👍❤
Love this layered back style of music. And with skilled musicians like this the music presented is pure joy!
A beautiful piece from the past that says a lot. Well done!!
Absolutely amazing...what great musicians can do with an old American standard..." I'll see you in my dreams ".
Richard's hero Chet Atkins and Chet's 'mentor' Merle (16 Tons) Travis did the duet version that stays with you a lifetime -- in my mind's ear I can hear every lick. And you KNOW Richard is 'channeling Chet' -- down there, in the second-most musical nation on earth. As you say, Justin Tyme "Absolutely amazing."
@@MarkBlackburnWPG what is the first musical nation? England of course.
@@cosmofoxgaming1268 who gives a shit? Nobody of course
Smooth playing by dedicated professionals. What a treat!
This is not only excellence in music, but a supreme joy for the ear! Love it!
Magical.... just magical.... all so talented and just having fun which is what music is all about..... out of 45.5k of views only 7 don't like it...and all 7 were tone deaf.... could listen to this for hours and not get bored.... I doff my cap to you all... and say...."Thanks"
Opens with Chet, swings to Django. Beautiful
oh that part from 0:01 to 6:41 is so amazing!
How dare you insult that beautiful first second?
@@Max-ui5gc Damn your right I totally forgot that part
@@razariel5693 should have said 0:00 to 6:41
@@Ass1ztMel Oh frakk I messed up🤦
But thx reason to listen to it more closely again😄
OMG! Fabulous sound by Richard Smith virtuoso, with the great Bina Coquet, Cristea, Vicencio, and Seifarth. Thank you for sharing!
By God, you gentlemen just transported me somewhere! Thank you, you wonderful, talented people, and, if music be the food of love...........
It doesn't get any better than this.
Is there anyone so completely perfect and immaculate, yet apparently effortless as Richard Smith?
Among the living: England/Scotland's Martin Taylor; Australia's Tommy Emmanuel. Both recorded with their hero Chet Atkins. And Doyle Dykes -- the lone guitarist asked to play at Chet's memorial service at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium. Asked late in life if there was someone he would pay money to see, Chet replied, "Oh, someone like Doyle Dykes." But I agree with you, one Mark to another, Mr. Slater. Mr. Smith is right up there with them -- and a joy to watch. Oh and if you haven't seen Walter Rodrigues Jr (his TH-cam videos have been viewed by millions) you are in for a treat. In his own way, this Brazilian born American is the best of them all -- with arrangements Chet would have loved. You will too, I promise -- or double your money back. -- Mark B of Winnipeg Canada -- home of Lenny Breau. Chet told me in a 1971 interview that Lenny is "the greatest guitarist in the world."
Beyond music, this is soul massage.
I love playing my guitars, but every now and then I have to put them down and let them hear something like this, so they know how they are supposed to sound when they are played with much greater skill than I can currently muster. Keep playing gentlemen, the world needs you. Thank you for giving my guitars hope and a sense of higher aspirations of what one day they might sound like.
What a note perfect appreciation. Thanks for your comment, Rev.Bro Chris L. Really, the best such comment I have ever read at TH-cam. You said it all, in so few wonderful words. A propos nothing but great melodies, great lyrics and great renditions, I have a thread of that name at the world's biggest website for musicians Harmony Central in their songwriting folder. Something tells me you might appreciate. Mr. Smith too, if he sees this! God bless.

p.s. I helped arrange Doyle Dykes' first visit to Winnipeg Canada, two Octobers ago. He was scheduled to play 90 minutes at our store Quest that carries his signature model acoustic-electric guitars by Godin of Quebec (now the world's largest exporter of quality guitars). He played for three hours. He must have made a mistake, but I didn't hear it.
Before his performance for about 50 (guitarists) including my son and grandson, I spoke with him and said, "Your Dad and mine died the same year; bet your father like mine, loved 'The Poor People of Paris'." (circa 1958). At the end of the show, when he inscribed my Godin-made La Patrie classical instrument, I offered him my Gibson (Northern) Southern Jumbo, hand made by Gibson's other greatest luthier Ren Ferguson. "He made my Guild signature model," said Mr. Dykes, and then, with a smile, looking me in the eye, he played the first few bars of THE POOR PEOPLE OF PARIS. Talk about 'straight to the heart' and, incidentally -- Boy did my Gibson Girl sound good in Doyle's hands!
Merle Travis would be very proud of Richard Smith
for keeping this song alive !!!
whole concert in one would be marvellous!
Why I instantly have springs under my feet when I hear you play and I laugh like an idiot, in my opinion it is by the happiness of listening to you and that you will transmit. Thank you guys for this moment of happiness I really needed it.
It's good to know that other people laugh with joy too. It's a spontaneous reaction.
Or maybe it's the bottle of whiskey...
i don't care what anyone else says or thinks this is the best video i have seen for many many years.
Impossible to keep still, listening to these fabulous guys!
Fantastic! Lovely! Elevating! Just like music should be!
They are all so skilled, its absolutely amazing.
Richard Smith... and my jaw fall again... And the Nylon swing !
Fantastic music 🎶 and all of them very professional musicians . I love hear this music and I love see the fingers playing guitar 🎸.
Thank you so much for sharing.
Not a missed note and so much emotion 😎😎😎😎
Boom chukka - Boom chukka - Boom......... Go Django .... Go Chet...... Go Stefane......... Go Merle....... Go Mark..... Oh what joy. This is heaven.
The violinist is killing it- a regular Stephane Grappelli.
Back again replaying this ! String Masters.....Thanks again.
Wow! what a stupendous performance of I'll see you in my dreams. I dream to play one day this beautiful style. Congratulations you all. 👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏👍
Thank you Richard! How we miss your live performances...... but great memories from when we would attend The Richard Smith Trio for those wonderful years ..... do keep your incredible inspiring soulful magical ability. 🎶👌🏼😁😁😉
I grew up playing both acoustic and electric, but it wasn't until later, when I discovered the acoustic's diversity, that I really built an appreciation for those who play it well. An electric often covers mistakes and simplifies through amplification. The acoustic requires you to have much stronger fingers, and it's up to you, as to whether you hit the notes or not. No distortion or other effect to turn up to mask your poor chops.
100%
Same, I begged my mom for an electric guitar. Played that for around 5 years, and she got me an acoustic for Christmas, I was surprised how hard it was to play the same songs. One day it clicked and I have 3 of them now and haven't looked back.
I own a Ibanez Af95 hollow body and a bunch of acoustic guitars.
I rarely play the Ibanez. Ironically I spend about 80% of my time on a Lucero LC100 or a Epiphone steel string.
I keep trying to make the switch I can’t make electric sing like acoustic.
absolutely fantastic, i could listen to them all day every day.
Just Thinking the same I'm Not Up Of My seat But Foot Tapping Extraordinaire Love It Thanks.
Je ne connaissais pas... C'EST VRAIMENT EXCELLENT !!!!!...... Je suis aussi, un Danseur de JAZZ... ET... J'en DANSE sur ma chaise !!!!!..... MERCIIIII !!!....
The whole group is absolutely perfect
Yowzer! Yowzer! Yowzer! I’ve seen Richard Smith 2x. Didn’t know these other guys. Astounding musicality.
Fantastic! Loved the transition from the Chet Atkins style into the Gypsy Jazz. 'I'll See You In My Dreams' is one of my favorite songs & this version is brilliant; bravo & thanks very much! 👏👏👏
Chet Atkins' unique style was very much influenced by Django Reinhardt. Aside from Merle Travis, Chet named Django as his main influence, and said Django Reinhardt was the most influential guitarist who ever lived. In his early years before he was a star, Chet Atkins had trouble keeping jobs at country radio stations. They said his music sounded like gypsy jazz, not American country.
beautiful this tune never gets old.
Love it! All fantastic and tasteful players.
"Strings!" Love all things strings. Absolutely nothing against the sax, trumpet (I like them) and all the rest, but nothing like stringed instruments to give you the feel good warm and fuzzies. I know, I know it's all subjective. Regardless of the instruments, "live" music is the best! It's raw and real.
Chet lives through the skilled,hands of,Richard,,,,,,, beautiful
Such technique, such feel, such craftsmanship. If you shredders can play like this, it would REALLY up your game. This is complete musicianship. Stellar
Asombrosos tremenda terapia musical
wow I have someone who I can enjoy and think of Dan Hicks music..THX !! Richard.. your great
This is the soul of "Quintette du Hot Club de France" brought to life! Richard Smith is magical!
Great trio ! Beautifully performed!!!
A perfect fusion of happy sounds, love it!
Svaka vam cast,predivno!!!!
Sou CLEUMA GOULART. Mas que surpresa maravilhosa! De repente, nessa segunda nublada no Rio, pandêmico, com meu querido irmão internado, deparo com essa gostosura jazzística!!!! Estou em meio a tristeza, feliz com o som de vocês! Gratidão! Tenho todos os dias vídeos com Emmet Cohen, Avalon Jazz Ban, e com certeza agora Jazz nos Fundos. Uh!Uh!Uh! (RJ/2021) Sou CLEUMA GOULART.
Absolutely fantastic i really enjoyed that. Well done
my path here was via the amazing guitarist Richard Smith but WOW this Brazilian jazz band with him is so cool - Jazz violinist Florian Cristea (I love it) Bina Coquet on gypsy jazz guitar and the bass player - Nando - keeping the rhythm thumping, and gypsy rhythm & mixed-by, Fernando Seifarth. I wish they were all playing down the block tomorrow night in Santa Cruz at the Kuumba Jazz Center!!
LOVE THEIR TALENT!
Marvelous. A real successor to Django.
That's a great shirt Richard.
Outstanding talent. Ain't we got fun.
I like how Richard lets the others shine, too!
Superb musical "quotation" in the style of Django at 4:07.
Richard Smith is brilliant!
Great 7 minutes.. all great and exceptional overlooked bass.
I never overlook the bass. Back in the day I never hoped to play a solo but always tried to furnish a solid harmonic bass line. That Nando guy is simply damn good.
@@nemo227 th-cam.com/video/PcZKAu45HZc/w-d-xo.html perhaps you’ve seen this one. Good especially after 3:30. Violin great as well. Done of the best.
This is the fusion we hear about is it? I suddenly feel a love for my fellow man that ain't healthy. I must not hear / see too much of this then! Gentlemen that was splendid. Thank you!
O cara mandou um brasileirinho no meio do solo 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
This great music as you know good music brings people together
BRILLIANT!...TRULY A SUPERB ARRANGEMENT RICHARD! ...AND WHAT A GREAT SOUND YOU GET FROM THAT NYLON STRING GUITAR.YOU ARE A MAESTRO OF SO MANY VARIED MUSICAL STYLES. THE ONE AND ONLY OCCASION ON WHICH I SAW YOU PLAY WAS ON STAGE WITH CHET IN LONDON WAY BACK IN 1983(?) WHEN YOU WERE ONLY ELEVEN YEARS OLD AND YOU WERE A CHILD PRODIGY THEN! BEST WISHES FROM SCOTLAND...

What superb musicianship and creativity and virtuosity so effortlessly displayed by these wonderful musicians. A wonderful delight to listen to and be amazed by.
I was always fascinated on how one can play not so clean but sounding so great!
This melody in gypsy style...fantastic.
Absolut perfekt in diesem Genre. Die Negativstimmen können nur von musikalischen Nullen sein.
love the way the dude on the violin rolls in off the guitar solo, ...
such an incredible piece
Wow! That was amazingly great. Well done by all. I remember Listening to my Dad’s Hot Club of France 78’s back when I was a kid in the 50’s. 👍👍🇨🇦
beautiful. god bless richard smith
I'll See You In My Dreams?? Hell yes! Merle Travis, baby!!! My family is from Dunmor and Muhlenberg Co. Ky. This is in our blood.
Soothing music. Such a rich mix.
Great. I thought it might be Bucky Pizzerelli at first. How sad that we've lost so many musicians this week. Thanks for sharing. Cheered me right up!
Wow! . . . . just, wow!!!
A fantastic fusion of Merle Travis picking and gypsy jazz!
Awesome....
Maravilloso!!!
CHET sneaks his way in everywhere! LOL! :) true master musicians! the violin is my fav., must have been a STEPHANE fan!
How could anyone watch this, hear this, and not smile?
Best version of ‘I’ll see you in my dreams’. by a country mile…!!…👍
Where would the world be without music. And children. And Animals ...
