Tommy Emmanuel: One Mint Julep – RARE
Here’s a little New Year’s cocktail for you, one of the rare opportunities to watch my dear friend Tommy Emmanuel playing the rhythm and blues classic “One Mint Julep”. You won’t find this too often on Youtube. Taken from his performance at the 3rd annual Tommy Emmanuel Guitar Festival in Rietberg/Germany, August 2006, I had the pleasure to be invited to with the Hot Club of Nashville. Happy 2009, everybody! Feel free to comment! Get your copy of my instructional DVD “Contemporary Improvisation” and download my new album “Backward Compatible” with Steve Shapiro and Annie Sellick!
