Thanks for watching John! Glad you enjoy this one. The phase shifter is fun, but I also find that these licks very applicable in a "clean" setting :D

It's time for some Panhandle Rag y'all! This is a simple arrangement of the tune for eMando, but next week I'll be demonstrating a really hot solo from the 15 min Billie Jack Wills show I reference in this week's lesson.
Thanks for watching and happy pickin!

I've also attached the TAB directly to this post because I'm having trouble uploading it on my website...

Hope you folks enjoy and see you next week!
Great job!! Such fun.
thanks so much.
You bet Bill! Glad you liked it :D
This one comes from the infamous 1971 Merle Haggard birthday party tapes with Tiny and many of the original Texas Playboys. Head to hayesgriffin.com for the TAB and happy pickin' y'all!

Great solo Hayes, very nice playing and I really like your sound too! Lots of bebop type lines in that.
That's not quite the story that I heard -- I'm sure he picked up stuff from many sources. The version I heard is that he transcribed these solos in the belief that they were played on the guitar. It must have taken very deep concentration to ignore Wills's hollering: "The littlest instrument in the world, that mandolin!"
I'm happy to hear that clean statement of the theme, and I'm very happy that you publish this transcription in readable SN (I tried to follow the link you gave earlier, and found nothing). However, I'm surprised that this version ignores the II chord in the bridge. Bluegrassers usually play IV-I-IV-V (in the key of D), Western swingsters IV-I-II-V (in E). Moore's harmonic conception is a bit more advanced than that of most others.
I heard a similar story about Glenn thinking he was transcribing guitar solos, and agreed that his concentration must have rivaled that of a Buddhist monk to not hear Bob's hollering lol
You are most welcome for the standard notation and I had wondered the same thing about the chords on the bridge! He alludes to that II chord in the A section in measure 6, but that's about the only place we see it. Agreed that his harmonic knowledge kind of surpasses most of his peers, that's one of the things I find most stimulating about his playing.
Sorry for the delay here gang, but here is this weeks transcription of Tiny's solo on "Sitting on Top of the World." This one was taken from the Merle Haggard Birthday Tapes, which all of you should go search for and listen to immediately! :D

An especially tasty Tiny Tuesday transcription, (an unapologetic alliteration).
Thanx, again, Hayes.

Happy Tiny Moore Tuesday y'all! This week's video is a special edition hosted over at the Mandolin Secrets YouTube page. We just released a series of 4 videos in Mandolin Secrets Academy and this is a "sneak peek" at the first video in this course.

Hope you enjoy and happy holidays!
I'm baaaaack...
Here is a hot break on Steel Guitar Rag from the now-infamous Merle Haggard Bday Tapes! Hope you folks enjoy :)

Welcome back, Hayes, great break. That tune I’ve played as a straight Rag with double stops. Perhaps I should incorporate some Tinyisms.
Thanx & Happy New Year,
Joe B
As promised, here is a stripped down version of the melody to Steel Guitar Rag. Enjoy!

After a few weeks off, I'm back with the FINAL electric mandolin transcription from the Merle Haggard 1971 House Party tapes. Here is a hot break on "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star."
Hope you enjoy!

Hayes, Great choice & well executed as usual. Tiny gets a little boppish in bar 7, a 5 to a b5 sub (D7 to Ab7) lick, leading back to the 1. That’s my read on it, very hip. Hope that isn’t too Jazz geeky.
Good luck on all your new ventures. I hope to keep in contact.
Peace & good health,
Joe B
Hayes isn't here, but it's Tuesday and this is Tiny. Awfully short, but we take what we can get, right?
