1. Emmanuel Is Astoundingly Good

Here's an interview Rick Beato did with him. It's almost an hour l9ng, but Tommy is really interesting & plays some amazing stuff throughout the interview.

9. I saw that one - I love Beatto. It's obvious from that how Tommy could be a one man show for so long

Engaging and charismatic personality and jaw drop level skills

I rarely post reaction vids, but I like/subscribe to this guy

2. It always amazes me when players can't read or write music, just do it by ear.. This guy is golden

5. You might like this

absolutely live Jorma on lead with his pal John Hurlbut on rhythm guitar and vocals. Those Quarantine Concerts every Saturday night were a savior for me and so many others.

6. Very nice, I didn't even know this set of records existed

I appreciate the tip.

8. During the first year or

so of the pandemic Jorma and company played weekly Saturday night concerts for about 90 minutes each for the better part of a year or so. Streamed live and totally free. A huge escape and of course listening to Jorma play can carry you away. They also made these all available for free on the Tube. An amazing effort by all to line things up every week, rehearse etc. These kids aren't too bad either.

7. Seeing this thread reminded me of something I posted last spring, a jam

with Tommy on electric guitar, and Joe Bonamassa and Josh Smith. That thread was here - https://www.democraticunderground.com/103474159 - but got little attention, so I'll copy the video (which has over 5 million views on YouTube) and link to the Guitar World article below:
