Pokygirl2001 ::: Favorites 2008-01-04 03:33:36 I love looking at Mother Maybelle's guitar for some reason. __________________________________________________ | |
Buddawg1960 ::: Favorites 2008-01-03 21:39:32 I don't know the year exactly, but judging from the Opry set, the ladies dresses, etc. , I would guess around 1961. __________________________________________________ | |

agingstoner ::: Favorites 2007-12-28 17:06:35 Crosspicking is done with a flat pick. Maybelle occasionally used a flatpick, but on this tune she used a thumbpick (or no pick at all) and fingers. She plays the quarter notes of the melody with thumb downstrokes and the eighth notes with index finger upstrokes, then fills up the spaces between the melody with chord strums. __________________________________________________ | |

Dunnotter ::: Favorites 2007-12-24 00:09:49 What a grand song, and sung beautifully. A real pleasure to hear this. It is like a window into the past... __________________________________________________ | |
robertsondjyt ::: Favorites 2007-12-21 16:57:02 Interesting - many thanks for that. I'm now working through a ton of "crosspicking" articles pulled out by Google. I'd heard of flatpicking but as a wannabee, er.. banjo player (is it OK to mention that here!) I'm still wrestling with clawhammer, frailing, up picking, etc, and hadn't yet got round to the terminology of the guitar world. __________________________________________________ | |
wilkesjournal ::: Favorites 2007-12-20 22:32:54 I think it's called "crosspicking". It's totally amazing to make one guitar sound like two. I read that she used the same guitar for almost her whole career and it is this very guitar she is seen playing in other videos from the 1960s and 70s. It was relatively recently donated to the CMHF and valued at more than a half million dollars. (but I think would probably sell for more if ever auctioned) __________________________________________________ | |

viking1au ::: Favorites 2007-12-13 12:57:26 Holy cow. This is real history! This is fabulous. I was watching a Martin Carthy track, it finished & all these bubbles came up & I clicked on this. Youtube are fine tuning their act and connecting stuff together it would seem. This is indeed a classic from the famous Carter Family. __________________________________________________ | |
