Default "I want you back" by the Jackson 5 on acoustic solo guitar

"I want you back" by the Jackson 5 - performed on acoustic guitar by Adam Rafferty - i think it's simply perfect !

"I want you back" / Adam Rafferty

It's nice to have this nice feedback - i think that Adam worked very hard to create this special and tricky sound. He has my full respect for his work.

Not my favorite of Adam's numbers, but a fantastic performer. And a very good guy. Remarkable rhythm. He has done a superb job, particularly with Stevie Wonder's music and with MJ's.

Incredible playing, and cool version.

I like this one too:

KT's is a bit sexier IMO.

Sounds great.

And it's also great to see him have fun with what he does. And you can hear it. Even feel it. I want to be like that too.

Fantastic playing but now I'm depressed because I'll never be that good.

You don't need to be depressed - he's a genius - only a few guys on this planet play so fantastic.
But i think that everybody can play nice music after some days of learning!
I know some guitarplayers - they have no technic - but they really have the groove and i love to hear them play!

Greetz & have fun by playin' your guitar!
