Hi David, as a bluegrass instrument learner, I appreciate your introduce of the song origination and historical records, That opened a big door for a learner instead of only learn the melody. Thank you!
@@DavidBenedictMandolin Dave, I attend jams when I can. ( Not so much these days w/ virus ) Almost every time, I will hear this great tune played at least once. With 10 fiddlers, 10 or more guitars, a few mandolins, a couple banjos, everybody gets a solo break -- tune can last 15 or 20 minutes. Ha, great tune. Thanks for this one. By the way, one can hear several versions, played the way each person learned it -- what a treat for the ears !
To me, this would probably be amongst the best and clearest of explanations I've seen or heard on how to improvise on a tune. Your concise verbal skills, backing that up with excellent notation and playing, makes this a very useful and informative video indeed. Thank you. More please. 😉
Thank you very much for this informative and comprehensive video. As far as my research goes there is no equivalent on UA-cam. Especially for me living in Germany and having basically no bluegrass sources here this is very useful information! And I like the cartoon intro 😉✌️
Awesome! Thanks for teaching this tune. The chord you played at 6:48 was an A minor chord but the tab showed B minor. Just thought you would want to know.

I know this song pretty well so it is one that I can actually experiment with and keep up. Thanks for the new backing tracks to work with.
Glad you like it Connie!

Haha! Good spotting that one! Do as I say not as I do sort of thing 😆 Glad you enjoyed the lesson!

Dude, your glasses are way crooked.
That's the real secret to learning this tune 😉
Vous parlez beaucoup trop !!
Practice is better
open chorfs sound great...but closed chop chords totally suck! harf to get a clear chord and sound like garbage!...not worth the effort.
