It's me. It's me, Avery J. People who are beating you up for "sometimes" not doing it exactly as the recording. Those people (like me and you) can already play the lick (usually haha). How else would we know if it's exact? A video like that is not directly aimed at us, generally. Although your never too good to learn, even watching something you already know. Keep up the great work, as usual. In a few weeks I'll give you another suggestion. :)
From the UK. thank you Marcel for all your postings and explanations. Today,s is really useful foe improvisation. 80 next month and still learning AND enjoying the ride.
Marcel, thank you for breaking down these Tony Rice licks like you do. I just hope folks learn to practice slow and clean before trying to be Tony Rice. I learned that some of the best pickin happens when you achieve getting in the zone in a bluegrass jam. The Zone would be good for a video. Yes, that magical zen thing that some pickers have experienced.
Although our boy Marcel is obviously not overly normal I want to let everyone know that for a very modest fee he did a great job tabbing out a TR kickoff for me. Tony's kick-off to All The Way To Texas was driving me nuts so I asked Marcel for help. He responded forthwith with lovely clear and accurate tab. He took an interest in follow-up. He did so with humour and the right amount of verve and helped out this Tony-wanna-be here in the Kootenays, BC, Canada. So you can support this chap, he's the real thing.
I have been playing Chet Atkins style for about 60 years. I think I am above average. BUT I have struggled with learning BlueGrass. Your lessons are helping me a lot so thank you. Why the world has so many critics and so few real pickers is simple. You don’t have to know anything to criticize. Matter of fact you can criticize even better if you know nothing.
Another great video and the forearm rotation has proven extremely useful; it seems to help me get the rest of my arm ahead of my hand and kind of slingshot me down the neck a little bit faster. After doing it a few times, it just seems to give me a little more confidence and breathing room when moving down the neck a box on a quick lick. With a flick of the wrist haha... Thanks again
Tony also would do descending double stops to get down neck and get out of a solo. Have you worked with these? I haven't (yet), but aware of hearing them, and that I don't know them
Do you mean the descending triad licks? I talked about those in an article I wrote for Premier Guitar, I think it's example two! www.premierguitar.com/lessons/acoustic-lessons/tony-rice
Hey Marcel, I know this request isn't bluegrass, but could you do a lesson on the guitar solo in Charlie Daniels Long Haired Country Boy, out of the bunches of videos on youtube, no one that I have seen has really broken it down and played it really slow. It's in the key of D and should be pretty simple, but I get lost after the first few notes, I can play the song, the intro, and even the walkdown lick, all I want is the solo!
Lamentably, I don't currently have the money on hand to financially support you, so I'll just do as many things as I can to help you beat the algorithm.
This is all great stuff I appreciate the work you put into these vids editings a bear! I wanna 1-2 your hater...Lots to learn here! I gots an idear, hows about breaking down some of Jerry Garcias bluegrass solos you chicken Bok Bok! ;)
I'll call you when I need a body guard! Thanks for the kind words on the editing, it's caused more than a couple late nights but I want more high quality bluegrass content on UA-cam. Hopefully I inspire some others to do the same for other instruments. Got some requests on Garcia breaks you'd like to see here?
Jerry's Jackaroo break starting at about 55 secs is really cool! and chalked full of jerry-isms... I had a book on his guitar stuff from the Shady Grove album But I threw in the towel before I had it figured out ua-cam.com/video/AGrsSeXRdG4/v-deo.html&frags=pl%2Cwn

That nugget about forearm rotation is awesome. That is the kind of thing I need most! Thanks Marcel!

Wtf. To be Overly normal is not a good thing 😅
I'm glad I discovered your channel. It's awesome!

You did a wonderrful job here Marcel! Thanks a lot.

Could you transcribe Robin Trower's I Cant Wait Much Longer from his 1975 Winterland Concert ? 🎸🇺🇸✨🇨🇦☮️🇺🇸

@@LessonsWithMarcel I checked it out. I does seem the descending triads on D G B strings is the sound I was referring to. Thanks!
Hi Marcel could you please break apart Blue Railroad Train please
Please do a Jerry Garcia bluegrass video!!!
Yes please
When you say playing over a G or C do you mean capo 2 for this particular lick?
Can you just move it down and start on 10th fret (D) and play it over G?
Please transcribe John Chapman's solo on the song "How I Love You". It's the first solo in the song.

Alright, no promises but I'll check it out!
Thanks so much, you can do it, I've got faith in ya!
5:42 for those who had to watch it over 10 times.
was there tabs for this?
can you explain this forearm rotation. It doesn't make sense to me
It decreases the distance and sets you up for the position change.
7:10
Sounds right to me. Have you ever done (Likes of me)?
Billygoat is not that word but that's exactly how you say it

All this pentatonic scale talk sounds like Chinese to me
