Tommy is sublime. I have been playing a variety of styles for over 30 years. I know guitar playing he is in a class of his own Jimmy Page Jimi Hendrix (and I loved them 30 years ago) are not in the same league how can people make that comparison!. Its my view that anyone not appreciating his obvious superiorty as a guitar player over any past and present guitar player whether acoustic or electric hasnt heard him. Its not just his sheer brilliance technically but his musicality ( I dont think it is a proper word but hopefully conveys this magical quality which at its essence is what music is or in my view should be all about)this uniqe ability to combine melody harmony and rhythm which provokes an emotive response and with Tommy its not just an emotive response but an inspirational emotional response.Yes his guitar playing sends me......Read full review
Bought this for my son for his birthday. He has recently become a big Tommy Emmanuel fan! He got to see him perform live in Jasper, Indiana recently. He loves his guitar style...he is actually trying to copy it from the dvd's. I really enjoyed it too, as I've never heard of Tommy Emmanuel before. I bought it because I had a hard time finding any of Tommy Emmanuel's dvd's, cd's or anything in the local shops. My son absolutely loves this dvd!!!
I was recently introduced to Tommy Emmanuel's work. Oh my! If you like music, you will love this DVD. If you love music and appreciate talent beyond your imagination, then you will be blown away by this guy's talent and ability. I've not watched this with anyone who did not sit with their jaw dropped. As an added bonus, the guy is just fun and funny! I highly, highly recommend this DVD. Also be sure to purchase his "Live at Sheldon Hall" DVD. It's even more fun!
I stumbled on to Tommy Emmanuel at Google video. I'd never heard of him so I checked eBay and found this DVD. He is the best finger picking style guitar player I've ever heard or seen play. Great entertainer too and though his singing leaves a lot to be desired most songs are guitar only. If you are an aspiring guitarist or just love the music check Tommy out, this is a must buy!
If you haven't heard of Tommy Emmanuel, where have you been? By far the best guitar player in the world. This has a few songs not heard on American releases so I got it. I find it hard to listen to anyone else, everyone else seems like an amateur compared to this guy. So much feeling, skill, truly one in a billion.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
This Tommy Emmanuel concert DVD is especially nice because with many of the songs there is a backstage interview with Tommy discussing the background of how the song came about. It's nice to get this perspective on the songs and it gives many songs previously simply enjoyed, an new facet to appreciate. Both the audio and video are both excellent. Very enjoyable to watch.
This was a gift for my husband and he loves it. Actually I bought this same DVD at a music store and he broke it trying to get it out of the case. He was so dissapointed that I bought another one online. This product was sent promptly and just as promised. I'd recommend this vendor.
very good dvd, he does a good bit of singing on this one and sings a few songs with liz watkins that arent to bad ,but as usual he picks the guts out of the guitar!! The crowd is kinda quite must be the way its recorded, if your a TE fan its well worth adding to your collection.
I would have liked a mix of some of his old stuff but it was very good. It left me wanting more. The singing by the girl was awesome but it is not really why I bought the show. You buy Tommy to hear Tommy.
