Location: East Tennessee | Hi Guys & Gals,
I put OT in the title mainly bacause;
1. No Glen Campbell
2. No Ovations
3. Not even a Nylon String.
Just an awesome version of this song.
Classical Gas
For those of you like me with slooooooow dial up it is well worth the wait.
Enjoy |

Location: East Tennessee | Now I know why His guitar is so beat up. :)
Maybe if mine looked like that, I could play about 10% as good as him. :D |

Location: Toronto | Chet Atkins once said that Tommy Emmanuel was the best picker he had ever seen!
I loved that little bridge of "walk don't run" thrown in for a break!

| The words "Ingenious Improvisation" come to mind... Mason William's probably got a copy of that one.. |

Location: Orlando, FL | There's another Tommy Emmanuel video on YouTube of him doing a medley live in Austrailia that includes classical gas. It's great too. It's shot from further back so you can't see his fingers, but he looks like he''s having a hell of a good time playing!
