Giday Yorick,
Been a fan of Tommy for years now. First seen him play in a pub in North Sydney in the early 80's. He was playing with his brother as the Emmanuel Brothers. They had a Sunday afternoon gig there. Can't remember the name of the pub now, but it was a great way to spend a sunday arvo.
Got his Determination album that he bought out just before I moved to England in '93. Still listen to it fairly regular.
Good to hear he is still kicking around. May have to have a look for that album with Chet Atkins. He also did one with Mark Knoffler years ago that is one of my favourites. Haven't listened to it for a while, but you can be sure the first thing I do tonight when I get home is dig it out.
