Dominic Miller Wrote The Most Famous Riff Of All Time

This is how you interview a musician. You speak 5% of the time, and let the guest talk and play for the rest. Wonderful.

My guess is that you may never see this comment, but if you do so much the better. Thank you and Dominic Miller so much for making my day and also making me cry. I am not very bright and have spent most of my life driving truck's around the U.K. I have spent many years trying to play guitar with out much success. Please keep on doing what you do it's so cool.

I think Ricks interviews are some of the best things on YouTube. Nothing better than sitting down with a gin or whiskey and listening to these brilliant interviews for an hour or so. Absolute quality.

Met Dominic years ago in my business partner’s Battersea restaurant. I would fly in from Boston with fresh lobster and crabmeat and Dominic would be ready for a nice Italian/American meal. We sat together often. He told me he played the guitar….so humble. It wasn’t until he gave me tickets to see Sting at Albert Hall that I realized he was Sting’s guitarist. Amazing guitarist who loves music so much and shirks the fame aspect. Such a grounded individual he has always been an inspiration.

What a touch, what a tone, what a kind person. Absolute gem of an interview! ❤

Rick Beato has become so important, not only for the fans, but for music in general, amazing.

This was truthfully some of the most beautiful guitar playing I’ve ever heard

Dominic doesn't know this, but its because of his passionate and tasteful playing that I became a musician. I was growing up in a musician's home so I was destined to pick up an instrument or two, but wasn't moved by the stuff my parents were playing, so I didn't start playing until age 6. At 6 years old, my dad recorded a crummy VHS live recording of ten summoners tales, where sting wore this unforgettable fluorescent gold silk shirt. And off to his left was Dominic and his luxuriant but simple playing coming through on Fields of Gold. It made an everlasting impression on me, a spark of effemeral musical life that Dominic infected me with, and I couldn't be more thankful for it. Thank you to both Sting and Dominic for your fatherly sort of examples in all things music.

Dominic Miller is a legend....he claims to be not so great but it's so obvious that he's a fantastic guitar player....period. He's amazing. His lack of muted or buzzing notes/his sense of time/his amazing clarity while playing a classical guitar leaves no doubt about his skill and musicianship. Could listen to him play for hours. This interview is sublime. Thank you Mr. Beato, you are also a legend.

I have never watched an interview where the musician starts playing, and creates a perfect bubble of silence... it's like the rest of your day falls away and all you are left with is pure wonder. Amazing. I think this feels mostly down to what Dominic is "not" playing - he leaves each note in its own space, with its own importance and weight, the right amount of respect for every single brush or pluck or slide... amazing interview, amazing guitarist

This interview w Dominic was riveting and I’m not a musician. I have learned more about music through Dominic’s teachings. Excellent conversation, focus, positive energy and well balanced human being. One other video that is intriguing to me is when Sting is singing and Dominic moves quietly to the backup singers and instrumentalists to help them. What a memorable moment.

The sound coming from that little guitar is amazing! Rick’s genius is letting Dominic play.

Arguably your greatest interview yet. What a charming, warm, smart, talented, interesting, humble, wonderful man. And you conducted your interview perfectly, letting Dominic go... letting him teach and recall and PLAY. Thanks for hitting it out of the park yet again, Rick.

Amazing. No shredding, No sweeps, no million notes a second. But the most tasteful guitar playing. I hope the young players start doing this too.

Dominic seems so down to earth. So refreshing. Wonderful interview Rick.

Classy. Charming. Humble. Refreshing.

I would've watched 10 hours of this. This is not an "interview", this is pure awesomeness...

Rick (and guests) just keep rising to new heights every time. This channel is such a treasure; there's nothing else with this level of quality on youtube or TV. Nothing.

Dominic Miller interviews himself, answering questions he hasn't been asked. Rick Beato just lets the stream of consciousness meander along without him interrupting. Great stuff. DM's Amsterdam meetup with "that Dutch YouTuber", when he teaches Paul Davids to play bossa nova, is also well worth watching.

This video just made Dominic one of my favorite guitarists! What a lovely person, and I'm in shock over how beautiful everything he plays sounds.
