You think i'm just ... ( 8 months ago by bigdjindustriez)

You think i'm just going to sit here and let some asshole call my uncle a "hack" and not say anything? The competition was judged by the audience watching the show and the festival organizers, most of which are famous bluegrass artists. Tony is great, but sorry he isn't "THE best". Tommy Emmanuel comes to mind, Clay Hess, Doc Watson, Chet Atkins etc. Doc is about as good as it gets in my opinion.

I checked the winfield site and I saw no mention of JP ever in the top 3. If I'm wrong, let me know. Not sure if Tony ever entered a Winfield contest. Winning a contest proves the winner is really good, but some of the greatest flatpickers have never won winfield. Tony Rice, Bryan Sutton, David Grier, ect... Even Mark O' Connor says that he has lost more than he's won.

I agree totally, Tony's one of the best--I just love his style. I just wish he could still sing, I loved his voice. But if we're gonna choose the all time best flat top bluegrass pciker, hands down it's Doc Watson.

>>> JP Cormier BEAT Tony Rice in the Winfield...Championships,
And what year was that? To the best of my knowledge, TR has NEVER entered the Winfield contest.
I like JP, though- he's a great picker.

This is a great ... ( 8 months ago by jocwalk)

This is a great clip and Tony is fantastic but for all around best flat-picker, I'd have to give that to Norman Blake. The sheer complexity with the combinations of rhythm, melody, and cross-picking of the stuff he plays puts him above Doc (who I think is great) in my opinion. Check out "Norman Blake, Flatpicker" on Youtube. I hear a lot of Norman in much of what Tony Rice plays.

I've heard JP. Good. But something about Tony's smooth effortless playing makes me never tire of hearing him. He's the best as far as I'm concerned

Doc played more ... ( 7 months ago by cwknig2)

Doc played more melody, but Tony played cleaner. I don't think you can compare the two because they have two completely different styles.
Don't forget to throw Cody Kilby, Mark O'conner, and Tim Stafford into the mix of great flat pickers. I think Cody Kilby is the best guitar player Ive ever seen in person.

Tony was around 26 years old when he recorded the "Manzanita" album. I first heard this album from a relative 20 years ago. It is an amazing album. Streets ahead for it's time.

Don't forget Bryan Sutton, David Grier, and Kenny Smith!!! So many great players... how can one truly be the best. And of course, if it weren't for C White, would Tony Rice be who he is?? Happy pickin... S

Stunningly ... ( 2 days ago by ZeropointZero70)

Stunningly beautiful. it seems that the guitarist on the left is standard tuning and Rice has dropped the low E to a D. that's usually as far as drop tuning should go for the most part. just enough drone on the low register without turning your sound into a dirge where you use only one or two fingers to "find" easy consonance. But then it's down to the imagination and fluidity of the guitarist himself i suppose.
