260 beats per minute blazing bluegrass guitar jam. This isn't Doc's BMR, but BMR done by three of today's great BG gutarists - John Moore, Jack Lawrence and Steve Kaufman at SKAK. Thanks guys!

  • fine pickin

  • Holy ..... Moly... that's some smokin' pickin'!

  • Was there that night and left the building wanting to smash all my guitars. Moore tore it upand never even looks at his guitar while picking. He told me if you have to look down at your fingerboard in the middle of a song, it's already to late. You done wrecked!

  • @jocwalk Oh, one more important thing. Your mathematical formula for determine BPM is completely wrong. The correct formula is to count how many "beats", not notes, are played within a 15 second period of time (:08 - :23). In that time frame, there are 37 beats that are played. Then you multiply that amount by how many beats are in a measure. In this case, 4. 37 x 4 = 148 BMP, The exact amount my metronome counted. I haven't a clue how you arrived at 8 seconds for your calculation.

  • @jocwalk Lastly, just look up a piece of sheet music for this song. You'll quickly discover that 4/4 time signature is counted, for BPM purposes, in quarter note time and the rest of the song is played in eighth notes. Therefore the count, to determine BPM is 1.2.3.4 NOT 12.34.56.78 as you are counting.

  • @jocwalk Furthermore, in order to determine a measure, you've FIRST got to determine how fast the note that is being measured that makes up a measure. It would seem, you are measuring a measure by the use of 16th notes rather than 8th notes and doubling your results.

  • @jocwalk LOL. That is not how you determine the BPM. The easiest way to determine it is on the 1 beat that the rhythm guitars are hitting. That's the correct BPM to measure and that is at 148 BPM.

  • @WOMsteve Mark O'Connor's Orange Blossom Special is at 204 which is crazy fast.

  • It's about 148 BPM. Not even close to 260 as is described.

  • which one is jack lawrence
