Saltwater - Tommy Emmanuel (cover by Tim Van Roy)

The tutorial for Saltwater (orig. by Julian Lennon) was one of the first TE tutorials I posted, and also the very first song/arrangement by Tommy I transcribed off of his "Live at St. Louis" DVD. This new cover version was recorded because, while importing the songs into Soundslice, it turned out this library was corrupted and the video could not be recovered.

[gmoney]

Such an underrated TE song. I’m always surprised when this one doesn’t end up on his greatest hits records. Amazing job as usual man!!

[benedictkennedy]

Amazing as usual! 👏 glad someone can bring this level of quality to tommy emmanuel covers. Anything else never does it justice.

[asemmustafa]

What a performance 👏beautifully done Tim, absolutely mesmerizing ❤️❤️

[masinis]

Terdengar jelas itu suara gitar yg indah dan penuh cinta broo 👍

I’m so happy you re-recorded this song. I believe the earlier cover you did on the parlor guitar didn’t have the full intro on that particular version. I could be crazy but don’t think I imagined it. Beautiful song and as with all your covers so well done.

I thought I'd like to learn this beautiful song, but then I then I watched you make that five-fret stretch in the intro...🤯 There is no way my 67 year old fingers are playing that. Maybe I could play that E note on the 5th string/7th fret?

[joshuahoffman]

Wow beautiful. What's the difference between hybrid picking and just using a thumb pick ? Also, what an outro!

[joopspijker]

Jeetje... man man wat speel jij relaxed

[ritieneniels]

Awesome so delicate!
Btw have you plans to work on "Eva waits" Tim?
The song drives me crazy and not being able to play it crazier🤪

[nikitabs]

If you will make a video tutorial for this song, it will be so awesome. Because this is a really incredible song.

How come you didn’t add the casacading harmonics if this is based on the performance at Sheldon hall. I’m only asking because that’s one of Tommy’s signature things. I’ll be using your tutorial regardless and I will figure out the cascading harmonic myself as there simple

Good afternoon, please tell me what model of guitar this is?

[luisfeliperochamarques]

Espero muito que entenda português, mais grande parte das musicas do tommy devo tudo a você.... muito obrigado!

[TraditionalToolworks]

That is a massive stretch in the Intro for certain! LOL
