I've met Tommy several times when he and Phil lived here in Melbourne playing pub gigs..All I can say apart from their guitar wizardry Tommy is a very sympathetic man to all, a real kind soul..Phil was great to chat to and his guitar heroes were Scotty Moore, Hank Marvin and James Burton..Did I mention Phil also had a pet python? True!! I miss Phil as Australia's Greatest electric guitarist and a very funny man..Love to all on this post from Australia 🙋❤️❤️❤️

Phil was not just a great guitar player he use to tell the most amazing stories in an amazing way that would leave you crying with laughter. I went to see him one night to drop a demo off that he was putting tracks down for in the studio the next day. He put the CD on while I poured a couple of Jack Daniels with Pepsie max - had to be Pepsi max with Phil - we sat in the lounge put on G3 series with Steve Morse, Via and Satch. Steve Morse was his favourite guitar player - because of his mastery with a guitar pick - but he was blown away with Via and it may have been the Jack talking but he said Via was the best player in the world that night. We watched the series 3 times with him jamming along with it, chatting away, telling jokes and just having a laugh. About midnight I said I had to head off, I only lived 3 minutes from him and stupidly drove home. As I was leaving he was trying to get me to give his pet python a good night cuddle pissing himself laughing as I was crapping my pants with fear. So he puts the terrifying reptile back in its fish tank and said hang on and grabbed the demo that he had played once in the kitchen while we were in the lounge with G3 blaring, Phil was as deaf as a post in his right ear which was the ear facing the kitchen where the demo played once. I said no that’s for you to learn the 4 songs for tomorrow. He said, and I shit you not, “ I already have”, I said fuck of I couldn’t hear them and your deaf as a post. He picked up his guitar and said this is the first one played it and them played the melodic ideas he had for it. He did that for the other 3 songs. I grabbed his arm, he said what’s up I said I’m checking for a pulse, I’m not convinced you’re human. That may seem hard to believe but as sure as water is wet he really was that good. You MUST see him and Maestro Tommy play the Irish Scottish Medley, it is, well it’s them. RIP Phil you will never be forgotten.

I had no idea that Phil had died , it hit me like gut punch when you mentioned it . Tommy and Phil would often play in my area in the early and mid 80s . I was privileged to catch their act on a number of occasions . They were supernaturally talented and very funny as well. Thanks for the memories Phil . RIP.

Really appreciate you doing a write up on both Tommy and Phil Emmanuel. If only you heard the stories about what he (Phil) was doing in his younger days with his playing like in the '70's. He was doing Al Di Meola's " Race with devil on a spanish highway" great guitar skills back then!! Many a thank you to Wings of Pegasus for doing the video. Cheers (Nephew Tommy Emmanuel)

Yes, I saw them play Mediterranean Sundance on acoustic together, at The Basement. Note for note, and clean as. I can't remember who was playing Al and who was playing Paco. I remember Phil playing a breezy tune. He then stopped and played it double time. Nice. Then he stopped and played it double double time. Wow, I thought, this guy is supreme. Yes, he stopped and played it double-double-double time, 8 times the original speed. With Tommy, it was the absolutey extraordinary chord shapes that blew me away.

I saw them several times in the 70’s as the Emmanuel Brothers Band in Sydney. I vaguely recall Tommy was actually the drummer at some point. Phil was regarded as the ace guitarist. They were gigging a lot when the Sydney scene was vibrant. Great players.

lol you must be a fan naming yourself Tommy E

Phil always had a smile and time for anyone who cared to say hello to him. He is a legend.

They used to do this in the pubs around Sydney in the 80’s and you could just see they loved playing with each other. Tommy used to joke that Phil was the “greatest conman of them all” - a reference to the fact that Phil went to the Conservatorium of Music in Sydney - hence a Con man. They were always joking around and loving their playing. Brilliant to see live.

I grew up watching Tommy and Phil play live in Sydney. They were the support act in a small club downtown for a Roy Buchanan tour gig. We had a table right up front. Roy apparently had never heard of them, let alone seen them, and this was the first gig of the tour. They played out of their socks, and Roy was not happy. We could see him stage left talking to a suit, and the animated conversation seemed to be something like, "Who the FUCK are these guys? Why wasn't I told? I have to follow THAT?" RIP Roy B and Phil E.

As a note to Wings Of Pegasus, the positivity of your posts is sorely needed in the world we live in today. Keep up the great work!

I am ashamed to say I only recently discovered these brothers. Amazing, fantastic and stunning performances.

I saw Tommy 4 times in one year - first time at Crown Plaza Terrigal in a really small room. Second time with a harp-guitar player at Avondale. Third time with Phil at Central Coast Leagues and the fourth time was with Rick Price at Newcastle Civic Theatre. Also got to interview Tommy around the Journey album and met him when he just turned up at Coast Rock FM unannounced and played live on air. Always a great person to chat to and be around.

G’day mate I just watched one of your other videos mentioning you should watch Tommy and Phil. You’ve obviously found them of course LOL. I was fortunate enough to grow up with these two men, are used to come around to our place when they were touring and stay sometimes. When I got older I got into music had my own PA system and I used to do the sound for Phil and sometimes open for his show with my band. I’m glad people overseas get to enjoy these two miracle workers of the fretboard

i had the joy of spending a weekend with Phil, driving him and doing sound for him he. was a great bloke, funny as, we had a ball telling terrible jokes For some years, my phone would ring in the middle of the night, and it was Phil with a top new joke; I miss him heaps.

My first gig with my band was opening for Phil last year. I was lucky enough to have a good chat with him and tell him how much of an influence he was to me, and how my first gig I ever went to was one of his. He was also nice enough to sign my Mockingbird. I was later told that I should consider myself lucky, because it's very rare that he will sign someone's guitar. RIP Phil, he is an Aussie icon and will certainly be missed.

Imagine what it must feel like to be able to be so in tune with another human being, let alone your brother and be able to create something so awesome. I have traveled many, many ks to see either of these guys, not just for their technical abilities, but for the sheer joy they took in music.

Improvisation at its best ... Tommy is a treasure... Their father was a professional musician .. But the improvisation isn't from jamming that sounds degrading. I believe the improvisation is a step up when your a master luther... Tommy really stepped up his game... He's incredible... I use the strings he suggested... I think he's top 5 in the world... 🌎... I don't care what anyone says.. I don't know what he's ranked has to be in the top 10... But acoustically i love him.. He's a show off too... I could only jam 🎸 with him .. He'd eat me alive... I'd be a ship outta water... You could professor... I put those blinders on ya and unleashed ya... You know exactly what key's he jumps to... Rock 🎸

Totally awesome Fil! These 2 brothers were amazing live! I was so lucky to have seen them play on quite a few occasions! They would tour with their parents as children and play shows all over Australia! Talented beyond belief!! You can see that they have played together for so long each one knows what the other is thinking! I Incredible! So sad Phil has passed away...! RIP Phil !! Thank you from Down Under Fil!

Aussie legends... Rest easy Phil you did well... seen both several times over the years and theyve been an inspiration to so many out there myself included... while the need for serious is there its the enjoyment you get that matters

Nice to get those technical and observational comments Fil. The guys are just so smooth and together that they can be easily missed. Thanks. I have seen Phil in quite a few band lineups . He was not elitist he would play with whoever he had or had invited him. It didn't matter how good or bad the players were, Phil was so good that he could carry the whole band if he had to. He was also a really nice guy. He spent his whole break talking to me one time and he didn't even know me. It sure was special when Phil and Tommy got together (great memories of the Emanuel Bros Whiz Band in the eighties). Sad that we will never see them together again.

Awesome performance by these guys! Loved it when they transitioned into the Pink Panther theme, James Bond etc

Hi, GAZ here from Melbourne/Australia. Only recently, I found your channel... & I luv it! I've already shared with my mates, as I reckon' they would luv it too. Just on Tommy & Phil Emmanuel.. I'm so fortunate (as an Aussie) to have seen them many times, both together & individually. You must check out their 'back-stories'. I remember one time, when my wife & I were front row at Tommy's gig in a tiny 50 seat old local theatre. He was amazing, not only because of his talent, but also how he was so funny & told jokes between songs. He made every song real, because he explained why he wanted to play them. One other example was, when I saw them both at a local pub playing in a band called ''Goldrush'. Believe it or not, most of the night Tommy played drums - also amazing, while Phil took on the guitar duties. One more great memory....... Seeing Tommy in a band at a local pub playing guitar for an Aussie called John Farnham. John is a legend here in Australia (He was lead singer for a while with Little River Band. They did a version of 'Hollywood Nights' (Bob Seger) & it blew my mind to see such talent, so close in a local pub. All the best & keep up the great work - GAZ (Melbourne/Australia)

Such joyous brilliance!!! OMG the surf music... wipeout!! The Pink Panther, Goldfinger and 007 themes... stunningly executed. Thanks Fil :)

Tommy is amazing to watch love his videos

You can tell a lot from the way Phil reacts. His smile breaks out naturally just from joy. If he sees something he really likes he also nods his head along at the same time. If he sees something that is unreal he shakes his head along at the same time. A bit of shaking going on in this one.

Whilst Phil and Tommy may have inherited their talent from their musical parents they have both played drums and guitar and appeared on stage from six years old. Tommy is never seen without his guitar, apparently he has played for at least eight hours every day for sixty years! He is the epitome of the traditional Australian, he does not give a damn for 'appearances' and is proud to scratch up his expensive, custom made Maton guitar!

Love watching the Emmanuel brothers perform together. Fantastic guitarists who have a blast when together.

I saw Phil in the Wallaby Hotel, Mudgeeraba (part of the Gold Coast hinterland) with not even 25 people in the bar. There were couple of yobbos having a conversation and when Phil started his set they just carried on bellowing at each other. Phil stopped mid-song and looked at them and said 'I bet this thing (electric guitar) can talk louder than you'. The yobbos shut up.

I played with Tommy at Adelaide Festival Theatre , Awesome night ,I still have the DVD , Great Player and Great Man.

So much joy and happiness on that stage. God rest you Phil. Love u Tommy.
