How To Play Tony Rice's Old Home Place - Advanced Bluegrass Guitar Lesson 

He didnt own clarence's guitar when they recorded that album though. From still inside book

WOW!!! Now THAT'S what I call a JAM PACKED LESSON!! Lots of history, cool stories, pictures, theory, scales, a pretty hot lick all broken down....GOLLEEEEE!!!! And all that presented by....Da Biggest n Baddest Billy Goat in da Barnyard!!! You are definitely "Juan en Emillion" amigo!!! Can't thank you enough!!!! 😀😀😀🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍🎼🎼🎼

John Starling has always been and probably will always be my top favourite 3 singers/entertainers in the world of bluegrass music thanks in large part to a wonderful local banjo player in our town. He exposed/taught me many valuable things when it came to life and bluegrass music in general. One of the most important being the simple art of actually listening to music in general. Otherwise I feel I would have missed out on a lot of amazing accomplishments in Bluegrass music. He was like a father to me and I miss him a lot. May he rest in peace.

Biggest. Baddest. Billygoat in the Barnyard... Haaaaaa That's gold Marcel

This break changed my life. I was playing rhythm for an ensemble just about a year, I was relatviely new to bluegrass from my past rock/metal past but loved it all. Anyway, the group would look at me to take my break and I would just shake my head and let someone else take it since in bluegrass a lot of the princibles from other styles of guitar playing can't really be applied without extensive corelation of the techniques and timing, it just seemed too hard for me at the time. Then I stumbled onto Tony Rice (who of course I had been listening to prior to that) and J.D. Crow's live performance of "Old Home Place" and Tony's break had me by the ear then something clicked. It made me dive deeper and deeper into the bluegrass technique untill that was all I seemed to be doing on a daily basis. About two weeks after that I was taking breaks. This break is THE break that got me to start playing breaks and it means the world to me. I was 19 then and 28 now, and I haven't looked back. Also, i've never seen a hearing aid battery changed. Neat. lol Love your videos man.

Floating.....brains blown out! Thanks marcel - What i Love about learning a solo is the way it forces practice and makes fruit in other parts of my playing and is like insty- material for other breaks to work on!

Great stuff and greater playing. I grew up near Warrenton, Va, near the home of Bluegrass Unlimited. I grew hearing The Country Gentlemen, Seldom Scene, Bill Harrell & the Virginians, JD Crowe & the New South at local festivals. Awesome

These videos are so cool- not just sharing tabs but going into the music theory and history behind these songs. The bluegrass and jazz songs you pick are perfect, and there is always been one song I’ve never been able to find tabs or chords for and that’s Tony’s Mar East. If you could find any information about this song, it would be incredible

Thanks.Marcel! Quite apart from the break, that was the most perfect potted history of JD Crowe and the New South ( album not band) and Old Home Place ever! I might mention Doyle Lawson went on to form the very influential Quicksilver a while after leaving JD and a long spell with the Country Genrlemen. Mainly a mandolin and banjo player.

Great video...especially the history of Tony and Wyatt and Jerry. Thanks!!!

They don’t call it the legendary Rounder 0044 album for nothing. And speaking of legendary, it’s crazy to me that you don’t have 10X the subscribers you have.

Think i just found my new favorite channel. What an awesome teacher u r thanks for this

Thanks for being forthcoming about your hearing aids. I finally got some last year (needed them for 40 yrs) and it's changed everything. Birds chirp! Who knew?

I’m 28 and love bluegrass!

How can this video have only 506 likes?!

I’ve been living with right ear hearing loss due to German Measles as a child. I’ve been told to get a hearing aid, but I’ve resisted. My resistance comes in handy when my wife complains about something.

These lessons are in a great format. So much info

Brilliant, subscribed on the spot

Just found your channel. You're stuff is awesome, hope your channel continues to grow. You deserve it man!

Great music/history lesson. On the history side, for anyone interested, Clarence White's brother, Roland, also appeared in the Andy Griffith show with Clarence. He's the one picking the mandolin, and still does to this day, albeit a little hairier and a lot greyer. (Don't know if he's gone to using hearing aids, though.)

Nice history lesson 👍👍

Thanks for this, love your videos :)

Nice video brother. Great job.

commenting for the algorithm but i'm also getting into bluegrass and this shit rules.

Hey Marcel, could you do a lesson on the Stanley brothers version of Mountain Dew?

Does anybody know what kind of capo he is using

One of the things I notice about Bluegrass is that there are many Basic Licks that are injected into Bluegrass songs and lick patterns that occur over and over again.... Do you have a video on this or are you thinking of doing one?

Is there a tab or lesson on “Makers Mark”? A nice mellow paced tune by Tony Rice on his Mar West Album?

Was this recorded in Bb for vocals?

Could you please do home from the Forrest kick from manzanita album

Hilarious!! Love your videos man. 🤘🤘

I’m well on my way to letting somebody else figure it out and just hiring him to play with me. Can’t we just do that? Sounds a lot less painful to me. Lol!

I wish I could do that 🤦‍♂️. I just can’t keep up with the machine gun rate Of notes to flat pick. I have to figure out a carter style way of playing everything lol. Just the basic melody 🎵. I call it the front porch version 😂

Damn bruh! You are bad as hell!!

according to the old video of tony playing a break, his fingering position are much different than this.
