Examples in styles on one song
As we talked about at our last Workshop, here are several examples of Blue Ridge Mountain Blues:
https://youtu.be/qo9TpTnF4sA Bill Monroe original hit, sung naturally Bluegrass Style, high lonesome
https://youtu.be/hHuBr8nGktk John Fogerty version. He actually had a better one with Ricky Skaggs; no drums, couldn't find it. But noticed that nasty blues style with attitude.
https://youtu.be/BnxRXIO3QT4 Avett Brothers version. Raw, unique. This gave me the idea for my bands version.
https://youtu.be/VpXe5ZyYICg Doc Watson version. Kind of Americana, Folk, definitely not Bluegrass, still very good though.
https://youtu.be/a3QxAYItsZM From 1926, prior to Bluegrass, kind of Appalachia sounding but a barbershop quartet sound at the same time, interesting.
https://youtu.be/_sdchej8SYs a western type version. I kind of like the vocals, but not high Lonesome Bluegrass sound.
I hope through these versions you can see a definite difference in a "Bluegrass" sound. Since Traditional Bluegrass is mainly played using three chords, it relies heavily on vocals, the high lonesome sound with good harmony. Hopefully you all were paying attention when I spoke about the notes that make up a major chord, the Root, the Third and the Fifth. That's Harmony. If you sing a Song in G and use three part harmony, the other vocalist would be singing a Third apart and perhaps the other a Fifth or even an Octave apart. More on this at a later Workshop, it's really a talent all it's own. For now work on your new found Key and Range. Most of all, have fun and listen to lots of Bluegrass; get that Bluegrass feel and style in your head.
All of the Masters of bluegrass are good to listen to; Monroe, Flatt and Scruggs, Jimmy Martin... but some Modern day groups I would suggest are, Lonesome River Band, Bankesters (for aspiring female singers), Steeldrivers, Blue Highway, Boxcars... just to name a few. Also listen to different styles and form your own unique style from these, don't be a copy cat, its been done before.

Angelina Baker fiddle and backing track
Here is a link to a Fiddle Lesson on Angelina Baker
Here's a step-by-step guide to this classic American tune. First I'll play a fast tempo version of the whole thing (0:53). Then we'll slowly learn each quarter of the A part, then the B part. We'll build up each phrases, adding 1-3 notes at a time. Below you’ll find left hand fingerings for each quarter. Use the time link to easily jump to whichever quarter you need to practice.
Try to stay with each phrase for awhile, repeating it in a continuous, nice-sounding loop. Once you have each quarter of the A part, assemble the 1st and 2nd quarters into the first half. then assemble the second half, then the whole A part. Take your time - stay with any part that is difficult, turn it into an exercise.
Angeline The Baker Play Along Video Track: http://youtu.be/qq4wXVAkdCI
Left hand fingerings (TABS):
3:45 first quarter: A3-1-0-1-3-0-1-3
4:49 second quarter: A3-1-0-1-3-1-0-0-1-0-1
6:24 third quarter: A3-1-0-1-3-E0-1-0-A3
7:09 fourth quarter: E0-1-0-A3-0-1-0-1-0
7:50 whole A part
B part
9:19 first quarter: E1-L2-3-1-0-A3-E0-1-0-A3
9:56 second quarter: E1-L2-3-1-0-A3-0-1-0-1
third quarter: E1-L2-3-1-0-A3-E0-1-0-A3
fourth quarter: E0-1-0-A3-0-1-0-1-0
11:34 whole B part
whole A part
just use the tabs to get going, don't rely on it or continue to read it once you've got the tune...

Marana DBA Tuesday Workshop 1/12 Salt Creek info
This months Fiddle Tune is "Salt Creek"
We have structured the Tuesday Workshop a little differently. It is as follows:
6:30-6:50 Instrument breakout to review fiddle tune
6:50-7:00 play Fiddle tune with all instruments
7:00-7:15 Play two songs from Pioneer Bluegrass Musician
7:15-8:00 Songs in Progressions
8:00-8:30 Announcements and open mic Jam
So, this month we are learning Salt Creek, rhythm and lead for all instruments. it might take longer than a month. we'll cover it until the majority gets it down.
