On the first lesson, Norman teaches the flatpicking fundamentals and fretting techniques that give his songs, licks and instrumentals their soulful trademark sound. Norman also provides invaluable tips on the use of the capo, using open strings, special tunings, back-up technique and lots more. You'll learn his unique rolling pick style, how he combines flatpicking with fingerpicking, and a variety of other techniques for creating a solid guitar arrangement.
On lesson 2, Norman teaches ten songs and instrumentals taken from his vast repertoire while going even more deeply into the details of his playing style and technique.
Customer Review:"Just a quick note of praise - I'm watching your Norman Blake DVDs again for the umpteenth time, and want to thank you for making these available! They are a real boon to guitarists, and are an important asset to the history of American music. Thanks!" - Jim Pelz
