Wilson is offering lessons over the net...pretty cool concept...wish he would throw in some video of the sessions...its a bit adavanced for me though lol maybe you guys can use it though.

Don't know about the on line lessons but the Mark Savoy DVD is terrific. It's all there. Highly recommended.

Man-o-man, I agree with the Marc Savoy CD. Wish I had an Eb to jam along... AS IF!!! Speaking of Savoys... Wilson is a really interesting cat. I picked up all of his videos he offered up on his web site. The Horace Trahan one is really odd. I thought he'd go into more about music but it is more of a platform about racial lines and philosophy. It's rather enjoyable from an educational point of view. Pine Leaf Boys are just great, too! I hope Wilson keeps up the music, film, and now -- teaching over the internet -- what a cool idea!

Make that CD AND DVD... and the Marc DVD IS awesome, too! Nice slow-mo breakdown, don'tcha think?

If anyone tries these out let us all know what ya think...

Big Nick has video on his accordion lessons that are very simple to understand, at least for me they are.

...and free.
Thanks Big!

Steve,

You're welcome!

I love Nick's lessons, but I figure I can use all the help I can get. I've had Wilson as a teacher a couple times and think he's good at breaking things done for those of us who have no talent, and the on-line of Pine Leaf Boys 2 Step - a tune I'm currently obsessed with - sounds good, so I'm curious to hear from any Braves who've taken the plunge on his on-line lessons.

His online lessons are AUDIO ONLY .. effective for those who are aurally gifted ! IF you depend on the visual for reinforcement or shortcuts.. Wilson's lessons are going to be more work than maybe anticipated.. but interesting and useful none the less.

I got his Corey Ledet triple row vid lessons and hope the do a volume two. I recommend it.. .. they clown around alot which is a nice change.. but some learners might feel like it's digging into their pockets timewise..

Just my 2 cents.. G.
