I got to meet Tommy Emmanuel at my uncles restaurant venue in Tulare California back when I was in middle school. Played Angelina for him as he sat and took in every detail, gave me corrections, told me I had a good ear and asked me questions about playing the guitar and what it meant for me…. 15 years later and that is the single most influential moment that helped inspire me to play today.
Да, великий, яркий и позитивный на все 100% человек. Он несет радость одним своим существованием. А уж скольким людям он изменил жизнь к лучшему, не счесть! Здоровья, счастья, добра!
+Northernspotter101 Exactly what I do. He always has an encouraging word for anyone. No one plays like he does. Most guitars he signs, inspects are of a quality that doesn't come near his Matons, yet he always makes people leave feeling great about themselves and their gear. I find his positive attitude and happiness contagious. And the interpreter has absolutely nothing to do with me watching this video again. ;)
Gent meets loads of his fans always full of smiles one of the best just brilliant guitarist saw him live great night so entertaining cant fault him his playing is unbelievable legend
Thank you for uploading this video and sharing with the rest of the world! It brought me great joy to watch! May the joy you’ve given others by sharing it shower down on all in/around Russia and Ukraine! Warmest regards 💞🙏
Tommy shares so much knowledge. These after concert meet and greats are a masterclass in real musicianship. Such a thorough professional truly a great.
Who's the cutie translator? For anyone wondering, Tommy is technically self-taught in some ways, but grew up learning to play guitar and was initially taught by (if I remember correctly) his mother at about 4 years old to accompany her when she played her lap steel guitar. His family had a band and went all over, basically. He grew up in a very musical family and had about as early of a start as he could possibly get to be an amazing guitarist. Self-taught in his own style, but he had tons of teaching from family and others growing up. He has traveled the world with other artists and hung out with all kinds of people, learned to play a variety of styles like Blues and such. I think he played bass at one point, as well. Former damned-good percussionist, which is also why he's so good at tapping on his guitar. Iron sharpens iron, but one piece has to be of a different shape (file) to do so against another (blade). Both pieces were similar flat pieces before being made into a file and a blade. I think Tommy would agree with that. You're a flat blade. Hone yourself with as many artists and music as you can, learn to play their songs by ear like Tommy did in his early years and continue to seek to be better. Playing is the first step, as Tommy would certainly tell anyone when they said they "wanted to put down their guitar when they saw him play". Typically Tommy responds with things like, "Don't do that, mate! It's not the guitar's fault!" and laughs. Gotta love this guy. Don't discount your playing abilities if you didn't start playing until teens or later, didn't grow up in a musical family, etc. Two different backgrounds. You won't 'play/be' just like Tommy, but you can enjoy playing nonetheless and that's what counts.
Also don't forget that apparently when he first started he didn't know a bass guitar existed and hence learnt how to play the bass line at the same time. An amazing talent.

Томми лучший из них. Но они не все там такие. Архиповский Лёша - наше обаяние и генератор добра, чем вам плох. Но и мы тут не все, как Лёша. Всё довольно симметрично. Так, что не перегревайте тему.
That Crafter guitar he plays around 3:30 is around 600$ but somehow he makes it sound like a high-end brand with rich tone and clarity. Just goes to show that its not about the guitar...
He could make any guitar sound great. I swear, give him a plank strung with fishing line and nails and he'll get a tune out of it. Great guy, great musician.
Tommy just gives so much of himself, how can you not to love him

Sat for 10 minutes straight with the biggest smile on my face. TE is an amazing player but an even more amazing person.
DITTO! Smile so big my cheeks hurt…feels super!
There's absolutely no ulterior motive here. He's just a super nice and genuine person!
His generosity of spirit and love of people is simply off the charts - what a classy guy.
Tommy is one sweet patient giving dude. Even with this small group he gives his all, just makes ya smile watching all this.
A great man with his admirers. So down to earth and humble. One of the best the world has ever produced and a wonderful inspiration to many.

I could watch this backstage videos all day long.What a great humble guy tommy is.

Thank you, Tommy, not only for your music, but for your generosity and kindness.

Томми солнечный человек , побольше таких и в мире будет благодать)))
Александр Дяченко, кому от его треньканья благодать? Только ему самому, бабло рубит и радуется, что ему поклоняются такие язычники, как вы.
Shiv in your dp?
That's what I was going to say!
Такие люди делают настроение, делают мир лучше!!!
A good video which shows exactly why Tommy made it. Hard work on and off the stage. What a great person & musician.
Easy to see how much joy he brings to his admirers, so great thanks Tommy.
This man is the top...I love that the Eastern folk love this humble talented man...
One of the most generous with his knowledge. He offers tabs, instructional videos at the drop of a hat. Love Tommy!!!
If only politicians were as genuine as Tommy. The universal language of music and humanity.
There are many musicians I appreciate, but I cannot imagine any one of them that I would actually want to spend time with more than Tommy Emmanuel.
Спасибо ребята, кто снимает. Мне не доводилось видеть Томми Эммануэля, я б не смог снимать, только бы глядел на него и слушал.
Absolutely beautiful
Class! God bless Tommy E!!!
sounds great! wonderful...

Какие счастливые ребята, такая возможность, я вам завидую (по хорошему))))
Великий музыкант! Самый позитивный из всех гитаристов, он него просто идёт потоком энергия света и добра!

I love my Crafter. The one at 2:52 is no slouch too, and they're inexpensive comparitively.
Great video - What a cool guy he is
He is as giant a human being as he is a guitar player. One of God's gifts to the planet.
i agree , un homme simple et généreux !
Your man-made religious delusion has nothing to do with anything. For fuck sake.
CooManTunes, chill a little bit man . No need to try to belittle people over their beliefs .
@@CooManTunes you are lost
He is not just an incredibly talented musician but above all a beautiful soul
Love TE what a great ambassador for guitar players around the world,Mick from Brisbane Australia ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Amazing as always. Saludos desde Chile
Tommy is so awesome. I love these meet and greet videos. The interpreter looks a bit like a young Angie Dickinson.
As an Australian, I am so proud of him. Lovely Russian fans.
он прекрасен! Как дедушка Мороз пришёл к детям. Просто чудо!
Your a legend Tommy. God bless you i may never meet and greet you on this planet but i know one day in Heaven i certainly will , 🤠
La música une, yo vivo en uruguay, sudamericana y soy seguidor de tommy,Music unites, I live in Uruguay, South America and I'm a follower of tommy
Счастливчики))) дядя Томми гитарный БОГ!!! Мне тоже посчастливилось быть на его концерте.

No. She is not a very good translator as well, made some semantics mistakes.
And you are an idiot.

@@devilsadvocate2548 Didn't know that one. Seems like something he should have known. I think they started coming to prominence in the 1950's.
What a humble human being..
how humble he is..... i mean totally deserving man to be a living legend.....
Had no idea that he was self taught. Amazing guitar player and human being!

Мега обаятельный человек. В России так не хватает подобного достоинства и доброжелательности.
...В России. более чем достаточно. и достоинства, и доброжелательности...Приезжайте и посмотрите сами...
Wasz Rostropowicz byl taki sam......sympatyczny normalny dostepny czlowiek !

Просто волшебник гитары ,человек высокого полета,многие играют на земле,а он парит в небе легко и непринужденно!
Tommy 🌹

I see a 600$ guitar as a high end instrument. A 50$ guitar is low end.
Which kind of model that crafter was?
@@sashamuradian Crafter TE6 MH/BR Electro-Acoustic Guitar PERHAPS.
Великий музыкант! Замечательный мужик!
Это величайший гитарист и преподователь. Мы вседа будем его помнить!
Да он вроде жив пока))
Рита, разве можно так людей пугать, аккуратней надо слова подбирать ) Ещё долгих лет жизни, Томми.
such a down to earth good man
Gentleman as always
Legend...
