The open "B" string ... ( 1 year ago by gde1111111)
The open "B" string in a "G" chord, or a fretted "B" sting on the 3rd fret, (a "D" note,) each have an equal place in the "G" chord....
Norman uses both ... as do many of us working musicians. It's the knowing when to use it that matters.
Nice pickin' Norman.. Johnny is proud of you ;o)
Just a matter of ... ( 1 year ago by Revelations)
Just a matter of some of your opinions, do you think Norman Blake to be comparable to Dan Crary? I'm just trying to think up a way of ranking bluegrassers in my mind, and this one's been bugging me. If anyone's got an idea, what would your top five bluegrass flatpickers be?

lovely to watch and listen to. norman makes it look so easy. Norman has a different approach to his music than most. he just cannot be put in a box labeled bluegrass guitarist# 5 or 6 or whatever. just lean back, or lean fwd into your pc to try and ripsomething off!!

Clarence White, Doc Watson, Norman Blake, Charles Sawtelle and Tony Rice. Each of them was incredibly innovative and immediately recognizable. I only have one Crary album, Bluegrass Guitar I think, and while it's very good, I personally don't rank him up there with the other guys. If you have any recommendations for some good Crary albums, I'd be curious. Of the modern pickers, Bryan Sutton, David Grier, Chris Eldridge and Michael Daves really stand out for me.

Great video, great song, undoubtly great musician. But you people need to relax, though. You're all getting too agressive, don't you think? All the fella said was that he didn't stand the chord-thing. Is that reason enough to bash him all over the place? It's not like he called Norman an arse-face or something. Chill, everyone. 'Njoy the music.

Is she playing a 1/4 bass or a cello? It sounds lower than a cello, and I've never seen anyone play a cello pizz style. any hoo it sounds great. And Norm is God, or a damn fine picker anyway.

thomas1976, I can understand your point. Check out some of his later work, "Lady's Fancy" or "Jammed If I Do". The former includes an all-star cast including the original NGR). The latter has him playing duets with Watson, Rice, Blake as well as Beppe Gambetta (not my favorite BG picker but a monster in his own right). Hearing them side-by-side might put some perspective on why he is considered so highly.

The fiddler is James Bryan. Fantastic old time and scottish fiddle player. His daughter also plays several instruments. They still play with Norman and Nancy some. Mostly small festivals.

Yup, I've only heard the Bela Fleck version from Trischka, Keith, and Fleck's "Fiddle Tunes for Banjo."
I agree about ... ( 6 months ago by jocwalk)
I agree about Gambetta. Honestly, I think he's way overrated. For "speed" he mostly does lots of triplets (left hand hammer ons/offs). He also mutes a lot of notes. I don't think he holds a candle to Steve Kaufman, Cody Kilby, Josh Williams, David Grier, Norman Blake (who makes picking look effortless), Tony Rice or many others. Gambetta would also have trouble playing in a band due to his style which, to me, defeats the purpose of playing an instrument.
Beppe has a video ... ( 5 months ago by baddd60)
Beppe has a video on youtube with a band called "Redwing." Search for it, it shows Beppe CAN play with a band. Its vintage 1985. His latest CD "Slade Stomp" is a flatpicking monster, albeit alternate tunings. I will be attending class with Beppe in June at Kaufman's flatpik camp.

I found a video entitled "Red Wine." Maybe that's the one you were talking about. If so, it really didn't help your case as the overall performance in that video was no better than I'd see in a local bluegrass jam band. If you like listening to him, more power to you.

Actually, James Bryan's daughter, Rachael, is married to an excellent fiddler named Matt Combs. I think it's safe to say that between the two of them that they can play as many fiddle tunes as just about anyone maybe with the exception of Fletcher Bright.

They're still in Rising Fawn last I heard and that was from Norman last time I saw him play live in October 2007 as he made mention of the short drive back to Rising Fawn.
