New lesson! “Angeline the Baker” has been one of my favorite melodies lately. I put together two different flatpicking arrangements — learn one or learn both. I’ll try to finish up the backing track by the end of the week! Let me know if you have any other lesson requests in the meantime. – Devin
Great one!!
This is just awesome!!!! Love that dropped d tuning.
This lesson is worth your membership fee alone. Very nice, Devin!
Excellent lesson! May I suggest a lesson on the song ‘Turkey In The Straw’? Would be great!
Thanks! That would be a good one. Sure, I’ll add it to the lesson queue. It might be a bit before I can get it recorded but I’ll keep you posted!
I really love the style you added to this song. fantastic arrangements and instruction. I told one of my guitar playing friends about your website yesterday. I think he will be joining up soon. Keep up the good work!
One of my favorites!
I am going to dig into this lesson today!
nice! i suppose i can’t save the pdf tab file to my computer but i suppose i can just learn it while here!
You can actually download and save the tablature for the main lessons…button right below the video..and for the newer lessons I’ve been adding the Guitar Pro 7 file for all the folks out there that use Guitar Pro tab software. Still planning to keep the bluegrass lick library tablature on the site only for now. Hope you like the Angeline the Baker lesson! Still having fun picking on this one myself.
Really nice lesson! I hear this song a lot and your arrangement is one of the best,, the drop D adds a nice layer.
Fun AND VERY REWARDING,,MELODIC,, i CAN’T SING but I can understand what you mean humming along
Nice, glad you like the melody! Had a lot of fun picking on this one myself. Honestly not a big singer either but anything with a good guitar melody works for me. I’m recording part of a “Beaumont Rag” lesson tomorrow. Had several requests for it so figured it would be a great song for the site. Probably posting round one of the melody first (maybe Friday) and then the second break, rhythm lesson, and jam track early next week. Pretty happy with the first break though!
take your time Devin ..I know even the slow Beaumont rag intermediate is more than a enough for me ,, I been trying in between these lessons some free sample versions on youtube but it is really all going to take me time .. this is a great lesson for me.. I finally got it rolling almost good as you or close enough…been taking breaks between but it is finally sticking !
That’s awesome, great you got this one down…perfect song to build up clean picking for sure. I like speeding it up and playing it fast sometimes, but really like this pace here..feels good to get all the notes clean and a lot of nice overtones. Yep, got a bit behind over here…adopted a new puppy to keep my dog company during the day. Phew she’s been a lot of work so far..pushed the Beaumont Rag lesson back a day or so, but it’ll be along the lines of this lesson. Have a good weekend!
RED HAIRED BOY and ANGELINE THE BAKER, are full of 1/8, 1/16, slides and pull offs, just the type of songs I can handle as a beginner cross picker. Not so fast that I can’t play it and still enjoy the tune. I don’t know the Bluegrass song library so I can’t request anything in particular, but if you can come up with similar Bluegrass songs I know it would help me tremendously in my journey to play Bluegrass.
NICE SOUND! Going to get into this now. This lesson and your version of East Tennessee Blues are instant favorites. Thanks Devin!
One great song.
Check this version by English Band Sam Kelly and the Lost boys.
They are from Bristol, just heard them on the radio.

Really nice one
Great lesson.
Gréât job Devin…two thumbs up!
gorgeous version of Angeline The Baker played by Kenny Smith:

Wow that is nice. Thanks for sharing.
Devin trying to make sense of the picking pattern and wondering how critical it is to follow your down – up selection. I can’t seem to find an order to it? Random or pure personal choice?
There’s a method to it… I usually always play down picks on the down beats and up picks on the up beats so you can keep the down up down up pattern going over each measure. One measure counting eighth notes would be 1&2&3&4&…the down beats happen when you count the number and the up beats happen when you say “and”. The picking over that measure if you picked every eighth note would be down up down up down up down up. You’ll see the same thing in this Angeline the Baker arrangement except you’ll just have to pass over… Read more »
What is The strum pattern on your back up?
When I first tried this it was beyond my skills but after practicing Wheel Hoss in the style of David Grier, I came back to it and found the building block to bye start learning one of my fav.s. CGO brilliant in providing the steps to confidence !
Love this song and what a great arrangement. Struggling with the double hammer ons and the reaches in the higher register but I keep plugging away.
