    Miscounting is part of pumping the algorithm. It drives commenters correcting the "mistake". I'm not sure the tuning wasn't done for the same reason.

      It's an easy genre to learn and start playing in a jam situation in very little time if you put in a bit of practice (learn the boom-chuck and the keys of G, C and D and how a capo works). But to get good, it's going to be a journey. Marcel is great resource though. Countless hours of videos with some really great advice and techniques worth learning

    Very useful info, Marcel. I'm an intermediate level player using mostly finger picking styles (no Travis picking yet, but in the plan), and just starting to use a pick and trying to play bluegrass rhythms. Not as easy as it looks. So, I'll be checking out your lessons for tips for learning flat picking and bluegrass rhythms, and breaks/leads down the road. Thanks for the video!

Sure, I have the songs I can play lead on, but I'm not busting out breaks on the fly when I get the head nod. I'd rather pass it along to someone who can serve the song better

    The videos Marcel references are some of his finest. And yes some of us remember his 1st videos back in the wet coast days.

    I watch both your channels what I like about Sean is he will give you a tip that's like one those huge exit signs you see on the interstate as you fly by at 70 mph that you'd normally drive right passed. Sean is like "hey stupid you're gonna miss the turn off, tell em Sean sent you," Marcel's more like "now you're here "schools in please pay attention to this wonderful view".

    Here's a dumb rookie question: Since Bb is already a note in the G minor pentatonic scale, is it still considered the dirty 3rd? I know it's a note I can pepper into the G Major pentatonic, but it's not already a part of that scale.

    • @dantheman348
      @dantheman348 Рік тому +2

      The minor 3rd of most chords in bluegrass are often used as passing tones into the major 3rd. I’ve found it’s not super helpful to think of bluegrass tunes as anything to do with a major or minor scale of any kind. Instead, I like to think of it as ‘peppering’ the chords being played with pepper and whatever other spice you think fits the feel. Most of these tunes kind of occupy a ambiguous space that isn’t strictly major or minor, but that being said, most of the chord progressions imply a major tonality when all is said and done. At the end of the day, that’s why bluegrass is its own genre, imo-it’s oftentimes a song that presents at foundation a major tonality but, with tons of ‘spice’ that makes it ambiguous and continuously changing in feel to better accompany lyrics or feel. The ‘spice’ is often used in passing tones but, it’s the inflection and intent which makes them so important and so definitively ‘bluegrass.’ At the end of the day, try not thinking of a song ‘needing a major or minor pentatonic scale’ and start thinking in the direction of, what kind of ‘spice’ does this particular chord want, that will make it unique, and create a feel that will make this song sound like something different and have its own ‘flavor’ and be distinguished if that makes sense.

    So much for bluegrass jazz and assorted things. The rhythms of jazz, bebop, swing, and such are too different than the boom chuck. Another issue is that for a bango picker to adjust their fingerpicking rhythms to produce any of the myriad of assorted jazz rhythms is way harder even than picking the slick bluegrass bango patterns themselves. I mean, I don't think Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli playing jazz together with a banjo player who finger picks his fancy twirls and riffs that come out as bluegrass would mesh good together? I know Bela Fleck can play dissonance. But, can he pick the Beverly Hillbillies theme song to a Latin or bebop beat? And would that song sound jazzy if it was colored up with jazzy chords and a jazzy rhythm?

If you believe this the Holy Spirit entwines with your soul creating a new creature in Christ who is saved from hell and whose sin debt is paid in full by the blood of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Don't trust anything but the blood of Jesus for salvation. Not by ourselves it is a gift from God through faith in the finished work of Christ.
