[@robertshorthill6836]

The three greatest guitar pickers of all time, in my opinion, have been Tony, Doc Watson and Norman Blake. Tony and Doc are no longer with us and Norman and Nancy are in their later years, but I hope will be with us a long while yet. I like what Tony said about guitar: this instrument has no limitations, any form of music can be played on it. It all depends on the abilities of the musician.

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

Great comment!! I agree - thanks you very much for that

[@charleshill9649]

Where to start? First, just WOW! Amazing you've done this at all, much less in two months. Second,, bummer it can't be purchased. KZbin tutorials are good also; I'll be donating o support your work there. I've loved all things Tony since 1985 when I bought a Martin. Have known for many years the Church Street Blues is a fantastic album, just pure uncluttered Tony. But for whatever reason, it took me until few nights ago to listen on some nice headphones. It came alive like never before, making me appreciate Tony more which I didn't think was possible.

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

I’m 100 percent always listenin on headphones 🎧- those old records are so hauntin - I guess in the end I was just tryin to get closer to the music - kinda like a view inside - but Tony was the only person to have that sight of it - we only try and maybe learn somethin along the way - Charles, I want to thank you for great a message and appreciation left here - really makes a difference!!

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

thanks but no, this only the tip of the iceberg into tonys style - but i do get the fundamentals - its hard to believe how good he is

[@belascialoja4812]

Tony uses (as Pebber Brown calls it) "scalpel picking," whereas you're picking from the wrist, like most. Scalpel picking uses up and down movement of thumb and 1st finger tips, like the motion used in drawing circles with a pencil. It's usually discouraged by guitar teachers, but I don't know why - Wyatt uses it, too - as does Jimmy Page and many others - Howard Roberts is another, and Eddie Van Halen. Combined with economy picking, it's blazing fast, and very loud.

[@pat53chris54]

Hi Chris, what a great job your playing brilliant and the way you've stripped everything back, especially One More night I just love that song .Look forward to seeing more .I think the record label will pick up on your hard work and use it .

Well done man, this is an amazing achievement, I just started getting into flatpicking a couple of weeks ago, been fingerpicking ragtime, country blues & folk styles for years before though.... but from where I’m at right now to where you’re at with this project hurts my brain just thinking about it... if you did a lesson on anything from this record it’d be invaluable but I have to admit if you did a wee tutorial on Church Street Blues you’d definitely get at least a couple of hundred views out of me alone.

[@allenronaldson2860]

Randy, in the name of full disclosure, your treatment of CSB, was the only one that was even close to TR’s to date. This tune is to flatpickers, what Little Wing is to us old Start rockers. It’s more in the hands, and the soul than it is just pure technical chops. However, this has taken me years to even get close and be able to sing at the same time. I learned Little Wing when I was 16.

afraid not Mikael . .. started a patreon account as a last desperate measure - and no joy -- just not enough interest at at the minute ... after that, i moved on to transcribe random TR songs in their entirety - hours spent was ridiculous.. its the rhythm guitar that takes the time,, all trancriptions leave it out but thats more important than the lead - havent played or transcribed that stuff in awhile ..

[@Steve-si8hx]

Amazing dedication to tab that out. Such a great player to, you are very precise. Did you sand off the name from your headstock ?

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

Yeah it was covered with a sticker from a previous tribute video

[@PoetProphesied]

Tutorial of all of these would be great😂

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

i'll do what i can buddy - make sure and subcribe (:O)~~~~~~~~~~~

Hey man, how do I get my hands on this book you transcribed? Your work is very nice. I want all of the songs from Church Street Blues. It’s my favorite Tony Rice album!

[@DaleClements]

Tutorial would be awesome. Two months to write the book or two months to learn it all and write the book?

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

Two months transcribin entire album - what an album it is

[@parazartoutafay8661]

Hello, where is the CHURCH STREET BLUES TABLATURE BOOK to be found ? Seems to be a great job ...

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

Couldn’t get it published - for now anyway

[@PabloMarchenay]

It's a shame you couldn't get your work published. Is it possible to buy the tab on it's own anyway ?

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

I have other tab available only not this .. currently

Do you have your book on sale anywhere? I would absolutely love to get my hands on a copy.

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

couldnt get it funded for print - hopefully some day

[@runningshadow57]

While I am a little late 2 this conversation....have you considered putting it as a PDF ?

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

Pdf Sounds a little unofficial and official is the goal .. printed tangible product with everythin licensed / thanks for the visit buddy!!!

[@runningshadow57]

@@chrisbrennanguitar Hey Chris ! Thanks for responding.....I am a retired Pre Press Technician.....in the old days I was called a stripper.....so I know a little about the printing biz......I wasn't suggesting you put out a PDF WITHOUT copyright permission....I would recommend you hire a Trademark/Copyright lawyer to find out who has the actual rights to the music ( I am guessing there's a Tony Rice estate ) and reach out to them about putting your work out there .....whether you have a hard copy printed or put it in digital form (PDF ) or both ....and what royalties the Estate would expect %-wise etc. Chris ....I just want to encourage you to keep at it.....your lessons and Tribute to Tony Rice are outstanding ( in my opinion ) and I would love to be able to down load a copy of your work when its available ! On a personal note.....I started playing acoustic guitar in '73 and am still learning new stuff and I had to get a Trademark lawyer for my band logo I designed.....I'll know by April whether or not the Trademark office approves it ....the same lawyer can copyright my original songs that I am completing....( but I've done it before so I can do that petty easily myself )....Obviously I won't post ANY original music online until the copyrights are approved......This is my last big shot at the so called....Big Time ......but succeed or fail .....I'll be able to say I busted my a## to make it happen and won't have to look back and regret that I didn't try .....one more time ! Sorry to write a novel ....Hope it Helps ! Peace and Keep on Picking Bro !

[@thousandhills4826]

Hey Chris...I want to learn how to transcribe for my own ear and technique development. Can you give some advice on the slowdown software, software to record tab/music, etc? If you’ve already answered elsewhere, please point me there. Thanks!

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

There’s a program called transcribe or Anytune is good for app - sibelius/guitar pro or numerous others will have the ability to then notate into

[@agalligani]

I wish you had included the stroke directions in your tabs of CSB. That's the most confusing part to understand.

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

There’s a slowed version - start there

[@BradleyMcTaggart]

Hey Chris, Are there any updates on this? I would love a copy... hopefully someday. Fantastic job, I watch your TR videos constantly. Cheers, Brad

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

Couldn’t finance the project unfortunately

[@markasbury9577]

Ok! It's it's 2020 now, is the book available yet? If it's not available by now it never will be.

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

Maybe your right - I tried the Patreon way and in two years never got to tha first $318 target which was to pay a company to negotiate the run fir the print licences which there were many on that album - after that the print licenses would then need to be paid then print costs - so I ditched the Patreon idea - hopin sometime I could fund it myself some way

[@CIOSIGUITAR]

Wonderful !! Good job !! Where can i buy transcription's book ?

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

thankyou cioisi!! sorry tho - this is just a home project

[@brianflora2036]

Any chance that you self publish this book? Even if it's just available in a rough PDF form?

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

Songwriters on the album need to be paid via licensing and I’m not in a position at the minute to sort it - I wouldn’t put it out as a pdf anyway

[@holyebangz2.018]

the gold rush please🙏

I Will get not tutorials again !! My patreon isn’t doin great

Fantastic! Do you plan to market the book?

tried Patreon and failed - maybe someway someday i can do it myself

[@jimhester2004]

@@chrisbrennanguitar A friend of mine published a wood working book through Amazon Books. It cost him nothing up front, they do all the work, and you get a pretty good chunk of the sales money. It would be worth checking out.

[@chrisbrennanguitar]

Thankz buddy - Ill take a look - tho the fact that a print license must cleared, paid, and agreed with the artists work (8different songwriters on that album) you can begin to see how technical it could get
