Ricky,
Hey, its folks like you that make this forum a smart place to peruse. I downloaded the vid and tab, and this old dog is learning some new (well at least to me, anyhow) tricks from you haha. Many of these parts are at an advanced level of playing for me, and are posing a real challenge to my coordination and limited ability. Im working on Whiskey River today (and probably the rest of the week). They are all great techniques to master, as you certainly did many years ago. Anyway, I know you must have spent a good deal of time producing this back then, and its just as valid to me today, so Im donating $10 to your new baby, who may be another great steeler in a few more years.

Thank you James and George.....glad it still is of some interest.
I appreciate all that has ventured into this video and got something out of it. I know of one guy that has studied it and has learned and can play completely everything I have in there; that is way cool.

I found the video a while back and have been going over and over trying to get some of those fast licks. Now that you published the tabs to them, I can finally fill in those bits I kept missing.
I will be sure to donate. thanks Ricky for everything you've shared with us. |

Ricky, I'd love to check these out and make a donation, but the links no longer work. Perhaps the files have moved?
Thanks-

Thanks for updating the links, Ricky! I remember this now from a couple years back. I am in a much better place to make use of this, as I am playing old country music pretty much every weekend now.
Once I get some of these under my fingers, it is a challenge to keep myself fluent in a wide vocabulary of licks. It is easy for me to fall back into relying on a very small collection that I've been playing for decades.
I try to learn and incorporate at least 1 new lick or move before every show. The problem is that my buffer is small, and the ones I learned a month or 2 back fall into the bit bucket.

Hey Lynn; that is a good process. Might I suggest another??
Being able to improv; is being able to see/hear it before it happens. Image work is; to me, just as important as getting the lick or phrase under your fingers.
After you practice something; or learn something new; the next day while you are sitting doing nothing(right who has time for that anymore..ha.)or driving down the road; or mowing the lawn> See your fretboard in your head and see the strings you are playing and play the lick or phrase in your head the best you can. You are basically imprinting an image in your brain; that will actually come to you better while you are playing; than just playing a lick over and over again; and then forgetting it a week/month later. Try it and let me know if things come to you much better and quicker while you are playing a gig??
Ricky
