"Eric Thompson
is a virtual encyclopedia of flatpicking" Eric Thompson will have you flatpicking lead breaks in styles from Maybelle Carter to Doc Wat-son. Youll learn to pick out the mel-ody to songs like East Virginia Blues, Sad and Lonesome Day and Shady Grove. You will learn to embellish your playing with "hammer-ons" and "pull-offs" for the real old-time country sound. Youll build a solid technique, advancing step-by-step through single note arrangements of Thompsons Rag, fiddle hoedowns Arkansas Traveler and Soldiers Joy, and a bluesy bluegrass break for Good Old Mountain Dew (employing slippery slides and hot runs). Erics invaluable tips on left hand fingering and right hand pick technique are clearly illustrated in split-screen close-ups. 73-min video / Level 1/2 / 24 page tab/music booklet Available on DVD gw 601 no longer available on VHS |
