When I was a boy, I would watch this movie on repeat! I love everything about the movie and the music! Masterpiece! Great work on guitar!

Loved this theme since I first saw the film when it opened in '79. Carmine was a genius. Taught myself to play it a dozen years or so ago. But Rocco's rendering is much more faithful to the original than mine--masterful. Thank you!

It reminds me of my childhood, great cover, thank you.

I truly appreciate your skill and mastery of that classical guitar, ... never seen anyone come up with a better arrangement on a guitar with the rhythm and the melody put together so seamlessly.

sublime arrangement, just lovely. Excellent tone and reverb on this recording, too.

Very technically challenging to play this arrangement ~ the tone you achieve with the melody was very thoughtfully done. You are all over the neck to use the particular string to achieve the same tone of the melody throughout. Very trick to manage and hold a steady rhythm, but you pulled it off seamlessly.

So lovely to watch a master musician at play ~ job well done.

Cheers!

Absolutely beautiful, thank you for taking the time to video this. I had a dream last night that I should do an arrangement so I decided I would go out and see if anyone else tried yet, you've set the bar very high. I'm definitely stealing the harmonic part :-) Peace, love and music, Mathew
