“Wildwood Flower” was first published in 1860 and was later recorded by the Carter Family in 1928 on the Victor label. Maybelle Carter leads a rendition of the song on the 1972 album Will the Circle be Unbroken, and frequently performed the song in concert with Johnny Cash. In this guitar lesson, I’ll teach you a traditional version of Wildwood Flower and then an intermediate version with a ton of cross picking.

I thought the first version was nicer. They say less is more. I know bluegrass can be virtuosic, but sometimes that simplicity of melody is endearing. That's no criticism of your playing BTW, you are right to show an easy & intermediate version. Great teacher, much better that Bryan Sutton IMO.

This Lesson & your Site is just what I was looking for. Pure lessons without fancy bells & whistles. Most of my playing is Classical but a hankering for Country/Flatpicking for sure. I appreciate the song histories you give. Glad you're out there!

Nowhere near a country player here but I always appreciated the technical aspects of bluegrass playing. Learning this can only improve one's technique and teach new things. I think this is a beautiful song and I appreciate this video, Merry Christmas!
