Expanding on the basics he covered in his first DVD, Norman Blake teaches ten original and traditional songs and instrumentals selected from his vast repertoire, each one featuring his trademark flatpick-and-fingers style.
To this he adds crosspicking, drones, string-hopping, ornaments, bass lines, slides and other means of making a solid instrumental statement.

As a bonus, you'll hear about Norman's preference for 12-fret, short scale guitars (he plays a 1934 Martin 00-40H on this DVD), andd ideas about practicing, adding syncopation to get 'those notes between notes', and many other insihgts into flatpick style.
