I am the guy whose seat had the lucky CD of Stevie Wonder music under it. If it was vinyl I'd be wearing it out. Take care of yourself, stay well, and keep those hands away from power tools. |

Wanted to say Hello and hope things are going good for you and the family. Still can't get enough of your music and instruction, trying to work on it everyday. As always love the Croce stuff and have been working on some songs by Gordon Lightfoot. Thanks for the way you explain it for us novice players. Would love to see you guys...looking forward to October on the river at Les's Love Shack. Keep the faith.

| Pete, I just wanted to thank you for your work on your instructional DVD's. I found each one to give consistent, quality instruction taught by a knowledgeable, first-rate musician. Thanks to you my playing has improved exponentially, and I have worked with only three so far. (Another is en route as I write this.) By the way, I also grew up with Gordon, John, and Jim. All the best to you. |

I'm having a great time learning the material and look to get some other DVD's and CD's from you.I've become a fan. Do you ever perform in New England? If so,I would love to catch a show. Thanks so much for taking the time to teach your guitar style. It's most appreciated. PS..can you recommend a good low profile capo?

I was just in New England over the last two weekends. Massachusetts and Connecticut. Sorry you missed those shows. They were a blast.

My 16 yr old son has been playing the guitar and J.Denver songs since a toddler and is SOOO excited at the thought of seeing you. He plays 9 instruments now and would like to be a performer - guitar and piano mainly. I'm sure you are asked this question ad nauseum, but here goes. . . Any ideas on what he should do to become a professional performer? We're from a small town, few opportunities, and appreciate greatly any advice. Thanks so much for your time. Jan |

Well I guess I am not as big of a fan as I though so I did some research to find the songs on you tube ... well I have been on you tube all day (LISTENING at work) to ALL the great songs that arent the greatest hits but could be to me. Thanks for opening up a whole bunch of songs for me to listen too

A Happy and Healthy New Year. My brother and I enjoyed your show at Carnegie Hall. You didn't tell us we were suppose to wear a tie. So excuse our attire. Nevertheless, with or without a tie, you are great! Hopefully, in the future, you will be able to control that rambunctious bass player of yours so he will remember that he is but one member of the band and everyone must play together. -:).
After your wonderful performance, and a few Beatles songs we got up and left. My brother was one of the two folks who screamed out: "Bring Pete back!" Looking back at on the concert, we should have gotten up immediately when you left the stage. Beatles 64 was not our cup of tea. I didn't get into the Beatles until they made Rubber Sole and Revolver. It was only then I realized the band, their music and their song writing were unique. Since we were in the middle of a row, we had to get everyone up in order to leave. I don't understand those Beatles impersonators they barely paused between songs. At any rate, keep up the good work. I hope you and the folks enjoy, New York. Best regards,

Just discovered you yesterday on YouTube. WOW! Thank you for making your instruction available for free to those of us who are financially challenged. Though I'm not too proud to beg, and I see what a busy artist you are, could you post more of these? This is the only way I can further my abilities fingerpicking guitar. The sign on the front of our refrigerator reads "No Whiners!" I'm not whining, just being honest. For years I have wanted to learn fingerstyle guitar. The Happy Traum work on "Don't Think Twice" was my first inspiration, along with "Operator" by Croce, and many more I could list. Suffice it to say that since health issues give me tons of time to practice, I now consume as many YouTube lessons as I can find. Thank you for being a good person and an artist without mega ego.
Come down South sometime.
Keep on Pickin',

If you have time you shoud really take a trip there, it is beautiful! I'm sure you will be inspired to write a song just being there. My first time going there was a couple months ago this year and I did not want to leave. The fishing is awesome! I wish you the best in every thing you do, and keep catching those fish!

I started playing them again since Wes told me he met you again now that he is repping Voyage-Air Guitars. I just ordered your Croce DVD and can't wait to get it. Also, was really turned on to your Stevie Wonder CD and was blown away again. Any chance of publishing a tab of "You Are the Sunshine of my Life" so that I can buy that two? That and "I want you Back" are my two favorites of yours.

| I agree with Indiana Mitch on the Croce DVD. I have only been playing guitar for 2 years, picked it up in Tennesee on my 40th birthday and mainly bought it to play Croce songs. I would never have learned those songs properly without your DVD.
The 36th anniversary of Croce's tragic death is Sunday, Sept. 20th. I hope to see you in Cincinnati on the 26th, maybe you can play a tribute. I'll be wearing my T-shirt from Croce's Restaurant. Anyone fan can order them online at http://www.crocesstore.com/store/index.php.
I would like to pick up one of your T-shirts and additional instructional DVD's if you bring them. |

Funny you should mention that, Jimmy. I just recorded a new DVD for Homespun Tapes featuring Hymns from the two book/CD projects I did. I did not teach exactly what I played, instead decided to show some options of how you could approach playing these hymns and then the book/CD sets will just expand on that. That way it's not presenting the same thing over and over and over again.
I also recorded a volume II of Jim Croce songs. |

Dear Pete,
Boy am I glad that my Dad invited me to the International Guitar Festival in Hersbruck, Germany, on August 19, 2009. Think I have to make up a new word for how special it was to get to listen to such an exquisite and wonderful guitar player as you are. Simply "phantamazingly", "delighterrifically", brilliant :-) I felt like I was hovering 10cm above ground and you get so many different genres of music under one hat (from blues to country) and no this hat is definitely not too big for you - on the contrary - it makes you incredibly versatile!
Well, that night I got 2 CDs of yours (thanks for your signature) - the perfect music for any time of the day - music filled with emotion combined with extraordinary technical skills - just as it was said about you before: like a mini orchestra all in one. Thanks for sharing your magnificent music and your wonderful attitude - it's pure joy and brightens my day. Keep it going!

| Good morning, Mr. Huttlinger,
I just want you to know that you've made me a better guitar player. I'm also a drummer and singer, but if I had to choose just one, I think I'd have to pick the guitar. I discovered you when I decided I wanted to be able to present Jim Croce songs in a way that did those songs justice. From time to time, I'd hear someone cover a Croce song, but usually those performances didn't seem "right" to my ears. Well, once I purchased your Croce instructional DVD, I understood why. Now, when I sing "I Have To Say I Love You" or "New York's Not My Home" listeners really perk up and listen, and I know it's because of the "little" nuances and patterns that you provided in that Croce video.
Since that time, I've purchased another half-dozen of your teaching DVDs and I look forward to absorbing as much as I can.
I've never seen you live, but I've watched you a great deal, thanks to YouTube. God willing, I'll be driving the 150 miles or so to hear you play the evening of September 11th in Wisconsin. I can't think of a better way to honor 9/11 then to participate in the freedom I enjoy as an American and enjoy the liberty of driving any car I wish, to anywhere I wish, to hear any musician I wish, with any companion I wish.
God bless you,
Indiana Mitch

Just back from Copper Mountain. Really enjoyed your MC ing of the clinic, your comments and your playing. Loved the old Kingston Trio song you closed your set with (can't remember the title). I had hoped to see you on the Sunday as I was going to ask you (a) where I can buy a thumbpick that is not too stiff and not too floppy and (b) where I can get tablature for the Steely Dan song you played so beautifully.
Anyways, it was a pleasure, and I hope to catch you the next time you perform in California. |

| My wife and I just got home from Guitar Town at Copper Mountain. We both think you are the best. I have been a fan for some time now, and when I took my wife to see you perform at Swallow Hill in Denver she was hooked as well.
I've only been playing the guitar for a short time, but you have been an inspiration.
Thanks,

After Copper Mountain my friend Rob is already packed for Wasilla. I got to hook him up with some
fishing gear and lessons, so what will it be river or lake fishing. I want to set Rob up with streamers
and hoppers to start. After class and on the the water. Got to be the best! |

| Hi Pete,
I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed your concert Saturday night at Swallow Hill. Your performance was incredible, and all of your selections were awe inspiring. I'm still pretty stunned from watching you play Brown Bomber. And I have to admit, you commentary kept us laughing all evening. It was pretty cool to watch you play the accompaniments as well (I'm looking up Dakota Blonde cd's right now). The Water is Wide was very moving. Please pass on my compliments to your vocalist friend.
Thanks again for a terrific evening,
John and Laura Carlson

| Hi,Pete,
My husband and I really enjoyed your music and watching you play at the Walnut Valley Festival 2008. I took some pictures of you and your wife, and a close-up of you might be appreciated by your wife. I like photography and took lots of pictures at the festival, especially of the little kids. :-) They are sooooo cute! I couldn't resist!
Anyway, we have the picture file of the festival running as our screensaver right now, and that picture comes up. Then I think, "That is such a good picture. I really need to see if I can send it to Pete and his wife." However, I don't see a link to email you. Would you like to see the picture? If so, how can I get it to you?
We plan on being at the Walnut Valley Festival at Winfield again this year, and we hope to see you again.
Sincerely yours,
Della Glenn |

That, in turn, led me to your site. Glad to see you're doing well. If you ever find yourself playing in the Ann Arbor area (The Ark, for instance), lemme know. |

| Hi Pete,
Goose and I really enjoyed the show at the World Famous Shingle Springs Opera House on the 25th. It was a rare treat to have such an opportunity to meet both you and Erin. It's amazing how you can play to all the different parts on "Wonder". We are enjoying the cd's very much as do our horses - we play music during our arena work. My injured gelding that is stalled right now especially enjoys "Things Are Looking Up!" it alleviates his stall boredom.
Please remember to say "hi" to Jim & Anne for us next time and hope to see you both again someday. Until then I'll keep plugging away at the lessons ;-}

| Hi Pete, love your music. I read you take your AER amplifier everywhere you go. Do you check it as luggage in some kind of a case or do they let you carry it onto the plane? When I tried to fly with it a few weeks ago in Nice, security did not let me pass with it because the magnets in the speakers projected a big black spot on their screens. I hope you make to the South France once, cause I would love to see you live.
All the best Heinz |

Hi Pete,
Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the show on Friday night in KC. You, Jim Curry and band with the KC Symphony conducted by Lee Holdridge... wonderful show! Watching Lee conducting John's songs again was really fun and nostalgic. I can remember seeing him when John did the "Evening with John Denver" Tour back in 1975. Amazing!! One of my favorite all time concerts of his. I'm pretty picky about who I'll listen to singing John's songs but Jim Curry and band did very well. Always love Richie on drums!! I got goosebumps for you after McGuires Landing, you may be use to standing ovations,(which wasn't an easy task that night) but those were my hometown people appreciating what I've been loving for many years now in Aspen at the JD events and on your cds. Your playing is so amazing and a gift to watch and hear, (great backup vocals too... especially on Yellowstone!! :)
So thanks again, and was good to see and talk with Erin too, she's a hoot!!
You guys take care, have fun, be safe and come back soon!!!
Until then, see you in Aspen!!!
Always,
Vickie in KC |

| Good morning Pete.
Great show last night in Wichita. My son and I saw you live for the first time several years back in Winfield. We knew we wanted to see you again.
Last night was perfect since your venue was very near to my home.
We are glad you pulled out the banjo for a couple of tunes. My son is a jazz banjo player so it was an unexpected treat.
I will also mention that your e-mail campaign works. It was due to your e-mail that I learned about your performance for the 19th.
Keep up the great playing because we intend on continuing to listen.
Oh, by the way. What was the name of the last song you played; about a bull? The chord run is awesome and would make a great study.
Best regards,
Lance |

Thanks and hope to see you at the Emporium again sometime!

I have been encouraging the MN Guitar Society to invite you as part of their concert series for some time, and I see on your website schedule that it is happening on September 25th. That is Wonder-ful (yes, a bad pun about your new CD too). Anyway, Minnesota will welcome you, and I am very much looking forward to seeing and hearing you again. I'm sure it will be a great show. See you then. Best wishes, David |

I've had the opportunity to thank several of the other band members in person, but never you. So, Pete, I'm most grateful. I was moved by your story about McGuire's Landing. It's a gorgeous song. Wish he'd had a chance to write lyrics. But it's lovey as an instrumental. I will be ordering some of your CDs and I can't wait to listen to ALL of your music. Take care. And, yes, life is good. |

It really is great, and I wanted to be among the first to congratulate you on the accomplishment; I can visualize the fun you must have been having playing on it. You really captured the Stevie Wonder sound in a delightful way that us mere mortal guitar players will only dream of. By the way, I also appreciate that it is already in the database for iTunes.

| Hi Pete,
I just finished working through the Gordon Lightfoot material. What can I say - Excellent stuff, especially for we canadians that have followed the canadian legend in his own right for quite some time. Gordon has put out so much material and I was wondering if a volume 2 has ever crossed your mind? Pieces like Don Quixote and Waiting For You would do him good justice and also put a big smile on my face whilst I add these to my repetoire of songs I sit back and entertain myself with during those cold canadian winter nights.
Keep on Pickin' & Grinin' & thanks again for all the quality instructional material.

I will buy the entire songbook when it comes out, can you email your arrangement of Overjoyed. Can you also give me some incite as to how you go about creating an arrangement, or are you going to publish an instructional booklet.

| Hey Pete,
I've only just spotted your reply regarding the typo that crept into the I've got a Name tab. Thanks a million for your advice on how to play that E note. Incidentally, I've since learnt Photographs & Memories - so I'm making slow but steady progress! What a knockout arrangement, love it.
And I've even gone and bought a G7th capo as you suggest in the dvd - terrific! Some people are wondering if there's another Jim Croce dvd in the pipeline. Well that would be fantastic, but even better if it were to include some of Maury's beautiful songs from Gingerbreadd/Before the Ever Since.

I've been working on your Jim Croce dvd. Thanx a ton for that! I've actually figured out a few others like "Dreamin Again" and "Walkin Back To Geogia" which I owe to your instruction. I'm hoping a volume 2 and even volume 3 is in the works? Jim and Maury left us so many treasures. I can think of several that would surely be appreciated by his, and your fans. Lover's Cross and Alabama Rain for instance have proved more than a challenge. Any chance we'll see more Croce dvd's?

| Dear Pete,
I've just got your Jim Croce dvd and am thrilled as I'm a big fan of Jim and Maury. I've eagerly started learning one of my favourites, I've Got A Name. Because I'm lefthanded I can't recognise the chords you play easily and have to rely very heavily on the tab, which has got me stumped - in the sixth bar of the tab it indicates fingering an E on the second string, 5th fret for the A/C# chord but unless my eyes are deceiving me you don't hold down that note at all. Can anyone help? Thanks!
It's great just watching you play the song of course.
Kind regards
Marc
Mark;
You have found what we call a "typo." Those awful buggers sneak in there when you're not looking and attach themselves and they just won't let go. Play that E note as the 1st string open. |
