Adam Rafferty – “Rock With You” – Michael Jackson – Solo Fingerstyle Acoustic Guitar
Greetings! I had been working on this one now for a few weeks prior to mj's untimely death yesterday. What a drag! Thanks to Youtube I have fallen in love with his music all over again these past couple of years…since the original "Billie Jean" video I made. Tune after tune, I find MJ to be an amazing genius of music. Really! It was only fitting to video and upload this song today, as it was the next on my list anyway! This is my musical prayer for mj's soul, and for the comfort of his family who must be grieving terribly. I hope you enjoy this music. MJ You had a tough life, abusive parents, no childhood to speak of and lived with unbelievable stress and emotional damage. May your soul find peace and rest. (Farrah and Ed – may you find rest too…what a week this has been!) Thank you for the grooves, the melody, the dancing and the soundtrack of my childhood. So many smiles, happy times and parties – even tears, made life feel like "technicolor" thanks to you, MJ. I played this song on a Cole Clark Fat Lady Guitar (FL 2AC), and recorded audio on a Studio Projects C3 Mic into Digital Performer. Enjoy, and contact me anytime!!!! – Adam FREE Guitar Lessons and Tabs Available at www.adamrafferty.com Connect With Adam Now! www.myspace.com adamrafferty.wordpress.com

I really enjoyed this! Great style man.
I like so much your guitar form. especially when the best character of the word died. So congratulation. i hope play guitar that you.
wow
Inspiring… reminds me Tommy~
Love your work, God bless
fingerstyle that is ?
Fingerstyle is kind of a vague term. Basically it means that you play the right hand with fingers, and it is not classical guitar. Thanks for watching!!!
Wow. Some of the sickest playing i have EVER heard. So smooth and effortless. Your arrangements are beyond compare. I’ve checked out all your vids, keep cranking out the awesome guitar, more power to you, brother
you mean that fingerstyle is not for classical ? why?
Classical is much more specific about the exact techniques and repertoire. “Fingerstyle” is a broad term – anything goes in fingerstyle. Classical, pop, blues, jazz, etc…
Me thinking that fingerstyle means playing the song with chords and solo at the same time ! but i think that is hard a little bit !
Just started playing guitar again after 5 years, got an electric, you have single handedly inspired me to get an acoustic. The MJ acoustic numbers you produce are world class!
So awesome! My version doesn’t even come close to yours!
wow you made me cry…
Dont you just love how the truly great players make it look easy?Lets get behind this cat and buy some of his merch, instructional vids and cd’s. Yeah he is gifted but I bet he works his ass off to hone this gift.
Adam how do I sign up because im interested to join but there a problem with this mailform in your site. thanks again and hope I could play like you.
where can i take tabs????lovely version!!!
Damn… I’m burning with envy…
man!!! cool!! whaddaya thing of Sungha Jung???
Dud your arrangements are awesome as well as your playing, but take it easy on the slapping/clicking on EVERY song it gets old and it kills your playing
just my opinion
MAn, I do work on bringing the volume of it down. It’s such a high pitched sound, it comes through so friggin loud…ahh…always need to improve. Thanks.
