Listen to some Norman Blake. This is a man who can do it all, and who could blow away all but maybe a dozen or two people in the world, in terms of flatpicking a guitar. But he doesn't. He respects the music, and plays it at a pace where it sounds like it should.A great many guitar pickers - and even more banjo pickers, but that's an admittedly highly prejudiced opinion - could learn from his approach.
