Or Tony showing off like only he can!...His flat pick is second to none!! His licks are chop Suey!His timing!how slows down right in middle of a phrase.. applies more tension inside of 10 notes than anybody can all day...I’m a bluegrass player now... Chasing Tony... I have a couple of his chops down.. those licks are now my favorite things to play...Thanks again... you just influenced my guitar playing as much as the first time I saw Jerry play an acoustic set...

    I had the opportunity to watch Tony and Norman Blake perform two 45 minute sessions at a small venue in St Petersburg, Fl back in the mid-'90s as best I remember. Fifteen feet from the stage. Somewhat different right-hand techniques for both. You can see it on their New River Train video. Rice's picking looks to use a more economical wrist movement compared to Blake's looser arm style technique. What an unforgettable pleasure to watch two masters at work. Thank you Mr Brennan

      @@chrisbrennanguitar From 1991-2002 The company I worked for (Ricart Automotive) Sponsored the "Blue Grass Classic" which at some point changed to Musicians Against Childhood Cancer. Tony played at most of those shows and I met him through my boss Fred Ricart who was really close to him. Me being a finger style guitarist I was scared to death first time we jammed. I started playing some Delta blues stuff and Tony jumped in and started taking leads as well as blowing my mind with substitution chords and rhythm. At one point he held up his hand and said STOP! Then he said...I want to hear what that style sounds like played on my guitar,...lets switch. So I handed him my Martin D28 and took his and we continued to play. This was in a Class A RV after his show was over. Just when I started to feel comfortable many others came in. Not going to drop names but I'm talking huge names in bluegrass. Tony introduced me and said just keep playing that stuff or whatever you want and we'll jump in. I remember we did about a 15 minute version of House of the Rising Son. After a couple hours things really turned into a full blown bluegrass jam. Once that happened I mostly played harmonica. I was so terrified at first that I brought a cooler. Everyone thought it was full of beer but all that was in it was about 10 harmonicas in about every key imaginable. The next day my boss called and said Tony wants to buy one of our Mustangs...Make sure he picks out the one he wants then call me back. We found him one and he popped the trunk on his Town Car and got his guitar out and a Crown Royal bag. The bag was full of $100 bills and a Glock 9
      We were friends from that point on and he would always introduce me to other players. I gave him a Keb Mo CD and he went crazy over it. So every time I saw him I tried to give him a cassette with that style on it . Your playing totally captures his style and your video editing is awesome too! If you ever pass through Ohio look me up....take care...

      @chrisbrennanguitar  8 лет назад

      thanks Keith! ha! I know what your talkin about (:O)~~ on reflection it was too hard of an attack.. ill be tryin to sort that in the more advanced one I have planned

    • @keithwaddell3030
      @keithwaddell3030 8 лет назад +1

      Maybe a bit harder than Tony... I've heard from some folks that he is not a particularly loud player. However your attack would certainly come through in a jam with fiddles and banjos. Do you pick in a bluegrass ensemble?
      This is a very cool video - sounds Rice-esque but without copying him directly. There are some phrases in here that I've not heard Tony play and I think your slides are a bit heavier too.

    • @chrisbrennanguitar
      @chrisbrennanguitar  8 лет назад +1

    i consider the blue grass of Toni Rice ,a good approach for practice fast picking, the system of blue grass is in the middle of anyone that like to play fast in jazz fusion,and gipsy jazz, and flamengo jazz or other musical style.

    I think you may play Tony Rice better than Tony Rice. What kind of pick are you using?
    I can’t get that sharp attack with plastic picks, so I use a very fat and heavy stone pick to get that crispy attack. But the heavy pick is a little harder to play intricately...

      @chrisbrennanguitar  6 лет назад +1

      The guitar was bought from Homer Ledford's guitarist 25 years ago when they where on tour in Ireland they were a bluegrass band from Lexington Kentucky USA the guitar was recently modified with an enlarged sound-hole and new replica scratchplate to mirror the look of the famous "Tony rice , Clarence white guitar.. The action is set low I'm using medium to light strings for playability...
