[@DornAndGrant]

Dirty third is an excellent bit of simple useful language! Nice

[@danhutchinson8649]

Just like to say "Thank You Marcel" for what you do and how you do it....with a smile on your face, with style and with grace....Thank you so much. I think I speak for everyone that watches you, You really inspire us!

[@billblack2861]

Hey brother, that is one of my favorite TR songs and you my friend just nailed it. I hope you have some more videos on U tube. I would like to see them. Take care brother.

Marcel you sir......ARE AWESOME!! I appreciate the shout out, but even more so the amazing video. You are in the top tier of KZbinrs in my opinion. Great job as always!

[@HermanGlimp56]

Obsessed with Tony. Starts to become strange. So many others to emulate.

[@tonywatson2682]

Marcel, thank you for such a great posting. A whole lot of new phrases that would also slot in other tunes and make them sound soo much more professional. Tony

[@Sincoola27]

It would be really really awesome for you to do a transcription of Tony’s opening break to his version of “girl from the north country.” So many great licks in there.

[@BrandonJohnsonGuitar]

Hell ya! Great stuff man.

Have you ever heard Lonesome Reuben of the Guitar Album? My favorite Tony Rice lick ever is from 3:06 to 3:20. Sounds like a D major with a sus 4... Then after the lick he goes into some straight minor blues.

Excellent!

[@NoteConference]

Awesome

Hello there! Can you possibly tab out Tony Rice’s Blue Railroad Train? It’s my dads favorite Tony rice song and I want to learn the break for him.

[@LessonsWithMarcel]

You can snag the tab on the website! lessonswithmarcel.com/product/blue-railroad-train-tony-rice-advanced/

It was about 6 or 7 years ago when I first discovered Tony Rice. I remember thinking, 'Man, all I want to do is be able to play like him.' Back in the day, it was hard to find much about him, but I'm so grateful for the wealth of content available now. Little did I know how challenging it would be. The first clip I ever saw of Tony was his (Live) Freeborn Man at Merle Fest 1992 (the year I was born). His second break in that song completely shattered my idea of what music could be; he took it to another level. I'm not sure if you've ever done a breakdown of that, but it's a doozy.

Could you break down Zach Tops why you been gone so long it’s in a Thompson Guitars video first song…I think he is in drop D

[@adamk6299]

Say “first” if you want Marcel to transcribe Friend of the Devil for one guitar next.

[@tg8303]

Yaaaaas sis! That's the tea!

[@williamburroughs2273]

Hey Marcel could you do Sheeps in the Meadow by Doc Watson? I can't find a tab for it anywhere.

[@ChrisSavage94]

String Cheese Incident play a great rendition of this song!

[@HowCommunicationWorks]

I just finished transcribing it in open E! Oops.

[@jwm6314]

Obx Get it.

[@corafuller5755]

the g part you play isn't the same as the one on the tab. you descend from c on the a string down to a on the tab. but listening to it and watching you, you do C,D,C,D not C,D,A,D. just figured i'd comment in case anyone else was confused on what sounded different

[@marnel7787]

Hey Marcel, What strings do you use on that Martin?

[@LessonsWithMarcel]

D'Addario mediums phosphor bronze most of the time!

[@mcoram3486]

dont forget Jessie Colter recorded it also

[@michaelrobinson6985]

Johnny Darrell!
