Yes, I agree. He and Mike Dawes are speed freaks, unable to interpret music.

Mason Williams is great. Tommy butchered Classical gas "Look at me, I'm Tommy Emmanuel! I can play Classical Gas faster than Mason Williams and add my own bits too. Look at me!"

My acoustic guitar has Tommy's signature on it from when I met him at a music festival in California haha. He's such a nice guy. So much feeling watching him play a tiny little show in front of me and like 7 other people too haha.

Why does this Australian who tags along with famouse people and who never did make it for having no talent pull faces? He is such a shit name dropping Luna Park entertainer. Mr. No Talent time.

I see eleven POP fans turned up and did not understand what music is. Great tune, took me straight back to my childhood and put a tear or two of pleasure in these old cynical eyes. Wonderful, even on the fifth replay. :)

Tommy Emmanuelle turns it into a circus?????Well I wish I was even a clown in that circus.That guy has more talent that writers of moronic posts.What would most of us give to be able to play a fraction as well as T.E.(of course I exclude the knockers, who believe they are good enough).

For as fantastic a guitar player as tommy is he sure shit all over classical gas. Fantastic player but a more clear interpretation of this song would be much better, we all know tommy has it in him to play a better version. As for mason Williams, well there is now critique here lol

I've had the good fortune to meet both of these talented gentlemen and I assure you they would be quick to complement the amazing talent of the other. Neither would engage in brainless trashing like many of the people in these comments.

You are all crazy. I have played this piece since 1968 when it came out. They are both great versions, just different styles. Would bet money the negative people giving their opinions can't play it!!!

I love Tommy Emmanuel and see him in concert every year. But in the case of Classical Gas, I like the original Mason Williams version better.
