Herschel Sizemore
In His Own Style Herschel Sizemore - In His Own Style
also featuring Alan Bibey
2 Hour DVD + tablature booklet

Whenever the question of the most important bluegrass mandolinists of all time is debated, one name that seems to pop up on everyone’s list is Herschel Sizemore. Many historians of the music feel that Herschel’s style was one of the first and most substantial departures from the Monroe style that so defined the emergence of the mandolin as a solo instrument in bluegrass. In his first ever video instructional presentation, Herschel discusses and demonstrates his unique style using a number of popular fiddle tunes and several of his own compositions. A booklet is included with both tab and standard notation for each tune. Tunes covered include: Cotton Eyed Joe, Lost Indian, Joyce's Waltz, Lee's Reel, Rebecca, Charmaine, East Tennesse Blues, Tacoma, Grey Eagle, Fiddler's Creek, Amandolina.
