		Tony Rice's versions are without a doubt bluegrass/newgrass, and contain some of the finest musicianship you'll find.

	Tony Rice
		Rather than just the type of improvisational flatpicking that you might see Tony do with a rhythm section behind him, this class more demonstrates how he might approach the tune solo, or how he simply might play the "head" (or state the melody, in other words) in a combo setting.
		This is especially interesting to people who play solo with a flatpick and would like to pick a chord-y solo in between sections, or to duos that may feature only one guitar.
		For fans of Tony Rice, flat top guitar, bluegrass, and those who want to better their own picking, it's something you need for your collection.

	FAME Review: Tony Rice Unit - Unit of Measure (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-08)
		Unit of Measure reunites Rice with a former member of the Tony Rice Unit, mandolinist Jimmy Gaudreau, as well as Wyatt Rice (guitar), Ronnie Simpkins (bass) and Rickie Simpkins (fiddle).
		While the Tony Rice Unit is representative of what has come to be called "new acoustic music", this group keeps it based in its traditional roots.
		Rather than lamenting that we can no longer hear Rice sing, we should all be thankful to hear his voice through his guitar.
