Tommy Emmanuel....who?

Who is Tommy Emmanuel and why have I not been addicted to his music in the past?

Tommy Emmanuel 

My friend, Bill Walker, voice-mailed me the other day and told me to YouTube Emmanuel's song "Angelina".

I've now spent hours viewing and listening to this amazing guitarist - a man who was mentored by Chet Atkins - and who is world known....just not known in my world.

You may be completely aware of him. If so, ok...

If not, join me in my new-found appreciation for this utterly amazing and talented self-taught guitarist.

I cannot even pic up my 1938 Martin 008 now without thinking of this fellow, now.
