Yes, It's really Indian patern. But very nice video

Good job 👍 I'm sure Fred Eaglesmith would approve

Is bluegrass Fidel hard to learn? IT sounds so amazing and very talent When you play!!

Practice style resembles Indian classical

Rest in peace Mike Kirley and Al Benner.

So helpful Chris.

Nicely explained!!. Sir! Is there any major & minor scale formula for mendolin?

Chris, is that an Eastman 515 you are playing in this video?

Man you teaching the stuff that I hate to do that's just a drag playing scales; however, the way you're doing it looks like fun and I can see the benefit of it especially on mandolin so I'm glad I watched the video and I'm going to try that what you're doing. Thanks a lot for your effort and your excellent video I wish we could see your left hand a little better though and you're right.

What is the name of this song?

Never heard this song Mike. At first I was expecting Sparks John Deere. Don takes a couple of really nice breaks as does the fiddle. Another thumbs up.

Nice set Mike. I haven't seen Don performing for - I hate to say - decades - except at one of the concerts in Waterdown a few years ago. We were all part of that 1970 s bluegrass scene. Can't recall the headline act. Cheers , Sounding great Mike. A thumbs up.

Beautiful rendition. Very moving and emotional. Fiddle sounds great

isnt this hwy 40 blues with different words???????????

Wonderful singing and a great song !! Thank you for this. Would you consider doing a short film on singing parts please - preferably with just guitar. I'm an English amateur Bluegrass fan and I would love to learn some of the basics of Bluegrass harmony. Have you any CDs available ? Happy New Year from Kenny Baker in England

It's totally Indian style

Nice!

Very very nice version. How could you do it any better or more soulfully? For once some idiot has not-down voted this video -- now that is a tribute and a feat. The instrumental breaks were all tasteful, different, and could bring a teat to your eye. For the record the the title of the song as Blake wrote it was Billy Gray (not Grey). 😃

hahahaha Awesome!

Like my squeaky floor at the start?

Many thanks ,I practice it since past 2 years.it has helped me a lot. I tried it in different modes. God bless u sir

Time has come and gone BUT your songs will last forever. We miss you msbf

Miss ya bro.

Great lesson. It will be a little more helpful if you distinguish what you are playing in each segment. The single, double, triple, 16ths were pretty easy to pick up on, but what we are playing is not very clear. I do appreciate the direction very much, but need a little more help knowing what to play. Thank you

This is really good stuff man. Not sure how 12 people couldn't find this useful. Great stuff! Thanks!

Got it I'm a Picking Bluegrass Now and Loving it too , got the spirit of old Bill Monroe in my fingers ... Thank you Bill and our Lord ... .. . for sending me your Masters of the Harps each day and at anytime they feel like it 4 and 5 hours a day now they come to me and we play for the Lord of Host and anyone with ears let them hear too ... .. .

Good job, ain't heard that one for a bunch of years.

John's written more than a few great songs...really enjoy McDonald Music

John wrote a few great songs with heart and soul in them. Please keep them coming. Reg Piper

Very nice video. Scales fits all your songs. Scales teaches the hammers in songs and so on.

Very helpful. Just when I was feeling so full of myself. LOL

My kind of music, my kind of friends!

There is a red headed woman sneaking up on you...disguised as a painting.

Hi. What is the picking pattern for the triplets please? Is it down up down...down up down..... etc

Wonderful stuff! I have been doing very similar exercises, but without the added vigor of increasing multiple notes per position, very good. I will use this in my practice. However, I noticed that your exercises are based on what I call a "Thirds Crawl", which makes wonderful sense, because of it's harmonic use in eventual solos. I have discovered a simple variation that is also harmonically useful, but for some reason is deliciously more difficult: I refer to it as a "Fourths Crawl". I don't think I need to explain, but just try to apply that idea to these exercises. Thank you for your work.

super - and many thanks for your helpful advice.

Since I saw this video 6 months ago, now I can play it as fast as you do here. PRACTICE...{:-}}

Thank you. I am glad I have found your lesson. Great example. Cool!

Last time I got to hear Jesse play was a tour with Noam Pikelny in 2013. Way too long. Thanks for a tad here. Are all these songs already fully known to him or does he have an uncanny feel for what he hears?

I had no idea that mandolin players strive to "shred" iat high speed n a controled manner as a common practice! Most interesting !!

What?

Hell yeah

cool. I just read the book Truevine about the Muse brothers & went looking for more info & found your song. pretty good, i will have to play it to my dad, he loves bluegrass music.

You sound like Marshal Tucker here Dave; one of my favourite singers. I might just have to learn this one. LOL

love it all to heck ..great job Folks.xoxox

thats great keep making these videos :)

Very helpful stuff! What kind of mandolin you play?

Great video and doable!! thanks Chris

Go Linda Go!!!

Nice exercises and really good speed. But I can maybe add one more to your repertoire: Try to do the single note runs of your exercises in the style of a jig. Play them dud dud so you get a different accent compared to normal alternate picking. At first it really messes with your head^^. Or try to play note 1 du 2 d 3 du 4 d. This works especially well for the seconde type of line you have shown. All good variations to mess with your hands/head^^
