Thanks Richard. What a great video to show Aussie pickers like myself. Keep up the great work. I miss Thom Breshs videos, and so I'm glad you've taken it on.
Thank you, Richard for the music and the travelogue. Always eat at dining car diners and the Greek diners and look for the Mom and Pop stores and local doings. Stop and smell the flowers. Life is a journey, not a guided tour.
Great Wikipedia memory Richard.Made me laugh. Thank you for the videos. I really miss the videos Thom Bresh did ,showing the food, the locations, and the people. These videos are of a similar nature and I love them. Thanks from Ireland buddy.
That was a great video. Thank you very much for sharing your life with us. Just wanted you to know that you're appreciated and I loved your playing at the beginning of the video. Don't remember the name of the song but you did it very well thanks again.
As you were tooling through Phoenicia the question was looming larger and larger, "How close to Woodstock were you?" and would you get round to mentioning it?
@@richardsmithmusic Thanks for posting! Those intimate little venues look so great, so friendly, so inspirational, with really knowledgeable audiences. At the same time, they leave me sad that a world-class performer isn't packing out the big concert halls as he deserves to be. It's not that fame and fortune should necessarily be the chief motivation for what you do, just that they don't always come to the right people.
You have to match what’s in your head to what is being played, on a record or on another instrument. Especially for guitar, try to match the record. You will get better at it over time, but it takes work and time.. You’ll get things wrong before you get them right, and it’ll be an ongoing evolvement of your ear, where you become familiar with more and more chords, sounds, intervals and lines over time. Try to get it on the fretboard. Learn and remember as you go. Learn tunes! Whole pieces
@@richardsmithmusic Thank you so much for the advice! I just learned your version of maple leaf rag the other day and I'm amazed how someone was able to translate a piano piece to guitar so accurately. Most of my ear training so far has been interval identification and progression identification. I'll try to diversify that. I think part of what makes guitar hard is the geometric challenge of transitioning to chords that a still feasible for the fingers. I understand CAGED and the general interval structure of the fretboard (i.e., where is the root, 3th, 5th ect in the chord that I'm fretting), but doing such jumps as being on the 7th or 9th fret and still incorporating open strings is something that I don't understand how to do on the fly still. I guess what I have trouble with is playing what's in my head (just the notes) and also recognizing what chord I have changed to.

Sounds wonderful! How do you train your ears?
You have to match what’s in your head to what is being played, on a record or on another instrument.
Especially for guitar, try to match the record. You will get better at it over time, but it takes work and time..

How is the sound conveyed to the recorder? Is there a transmitter instead of a cord?
Purely cell phone sound on this video.
I’ll be adding to my road rig soon enough!!
@@richardsmithmusic That amazes me!!!!
What song were you playing in the beginning?
“Embraceable You”. Gershwin
