Thank you for breaking down the Tony Rice licks.. You can make an entire lifetime study of his playing and never get bored.

Not to be confused with "Miner" bluegrass riffs.

You are fun. Bless you., Mrs. T.R

I would love it if you could compile your tabs in a single book or downloadable PDF. Would pay big money for that. Bet a lot of people would. Thx

Man thank you so much! I’m 15 and have been listening to tony all my life, this definitely patches up a lot of holes in my playing. Thanks!!!

It sounds like the live prelude Tony plays before Shenandoah. Good stuff!

Brilliant lesson, Marcel. Thank you for cracking some TR code for us mere mortals. Along with Chris Brennan you are the best out there.

Incredible lessons Marcel. I've only be really into BG for like a year and I'm learning a ton from you. Thanks so much.

Hi Mr Marcel Thanks for the clear and complete instruction. If only I could figure out how to print the mysic in tab or standard notation form- another day's work I suppose. Until then, I'll jyst replay this video a thousand times before I get it right!

That is some seriously beautiful playing brother! 🙏❤️👏

Hey there, I recently discovered you as I have developed a renewed interest in learning about what I've been afraid to learn and study all my life. I am 54 and am finding things I should've known at 16 about playing guitar. Thanks for this video as I can now grasp the concepts of what's happening when I see and here Tony play. It's not so scary anymore . Gotta long way to go to execute what I'm learning but you've brought me to a point where I can stop saying "How is he doing that?" I get how t's done now. Hope this makes sense. Thanks again.

Yo cool. Thanks for all the videos and all you do for us new pickers. Keep up the good works.

Thanks for all the content Marcel

Lick # 1 8:18 Lick # 2 8:26 Lick # 3 8:34 Lick # 4 8:45

thanx for the lesson iv'e been looking for some acoustic playing ideas for summer outdoor playing [I am mainly an electric guitar player ,older guy, brushing off the cobwebs] and this lessons adds to my outlook

This is my favorite video right now!!

Great lesson. I just down loaded your book. Thank you so much (I did make a donation). One comment I would make would be to emphasize how Tony loved to mix major and minor in such a sophisticated way which in this case included a Cmaj7 arpeggio in the second to last measure before heading back to the minor blues scale - a a very classic Tony Rice move. One I have always loved but never understood until very recently.

You sick bro!!!! Making tony look easy!

very well done, great explanation

Awesome Marcel, I have to put you on pause a lot ha ha to try and keep up! I’m still hammering away at Lonesome , Onry , and Mean!! I studied the song and it seems like the lead parts switch back and forth between major and minor pentatonic when playing over D chord. It’s awesome and a lot like you showed me the steel guitar licks in the recording seem to be d major pentatonic while the electric guitar leads are in d minor pentatonic when playing over the d chord. There may be an odd chromatic note thrown in for each if it sounds appropriate!

Awesome lesson Marcel!!!

great analysis and lesson! thank you

Very good lesson. Thanks

Great job Marcel! Is this intro to Manzanita?

Marcel, this is just SO good! Thanks man!

Tony, Norman, and Clarence all day long!

great video....you do nice work....

man.... ¡Great! Thanks for your lessons.

Wonderful! Many thanks!

Your channel is totally bad ass man !!! How did u get into bluegrass ?? Freaking great playing man. Did u go to school for music ?? Your a bad ass dude

Excellent lesson.

Thanks dude love that Tony Rice stuff .

Good stuff!

Thanks for the breakdown.

👍👍👍👍👍 catching up Marcel my brother you've got some money videos it's not funny but I love it much love from Huntington West Virginia brother 😍

Great lesson!!

Thanks!

Magic

Quality content! Never stop making videos please!!!

This is wonderful. Is the tab of this analysis available on your website?

funny how i started guitar sophomore year and definitely learned the pentatonic 😂

Man, I really appreciate your lessons! I learn a lot from them. I’d like to hear your thoughts on “the f# giving it that Dorian feel”. I think that would be Lydian. But that blue note is Dorian for sure. I’m thinking in C Major terms though.

how can i get the a minor tab,,,,,,good stuff...by the way u have a nice style,,,,keep it it

Aspirine please !!

Very good video. I am a new subscriber!

Hi Marcel! Thanks for posting, and giving some insight on your take of one of the indisputably greatest acoustic guitar players of all. One thing that has always impressed me about Tony's style was his use of Floating Licks. One of the craziest examples, that I never quite satisfactorily figured out myself, was that break on Buge Call Rag from the album California Autumn. Are you familiar with that? You seem to take this stuff very seriously and have obviously done a lot of homework! I personally would love to see (and hear) your take on that! Thanks again and keep up the good work!

Great lesson Marcel. Looks like the freeway shots are south on I-5 towards Redding, CA?

Is that the homespun Shenandoah intro or some live Shenandoah intro?

Wahoooo! Thx man.

I was the 1k like ✌🏼 👍

what kind of slowdown software are you using? thanks

Wow Marcel, it might take some time to produce , ( your fault ), you are going to get serious kudos for this one ! It's very very good !! As usual you made it so much fun and extremely interesting.

18 months later. Here's that Tony Rice tribute video that you had mentioned and asked for the link. (Apologies if someone already posted it.) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rsCJgpSTtNLQaYE.html

You're pretty dang funny!

I'm probably gonna pay for lessons now that I've seen this, as soon as I heard that tasty Tony Rice lick in 00:27

Which of your videos talks about pentatonic boxes?

Great lesson, Tabs go kind of fast though.

Hey I'm listening while I work and I don't want to have to stop and look every few seconds

I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks that tribute video is going a little too far...

Wait......What?.........You said Dorian!

Why do so many use "boxes" like they're in denial of CAGED sequence language. We could use some standardized language here folks! Stop being so goddamn jealous about it! That's the only reason I can think of that they don't use the same language.

Advanced ? loll. This is more like a beginner lesson, which is fine, but it's not advanced by a long shot.

Thats 70s prog rock thats no where near Tony Rice. That is NOT bluegrass
