Excellent playing! Good to hear Scandi-mando again on Mando-Mondays.
Tasty tune! And I'll echo thanks for sharing the transcription also.
Thank you all for listening! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video, the tune 'Cruisin' Timber" and the Hall Of Fame Mon mandolin! Thanks again to David Benedict and the Mandolin Café for having me on The Mandolin Mondays series #171!
Nicely done, David. Love the new recording!
Sounds great! And thanks very much for the transcription.
Great song David! Love the tone of the mandolin.
I had a chance to play this mandolin Friday night and it is a beast. David is so talented both performing and building fantastic Gibson mandolins.
Sounds AWESOME! I met David after a Larry Cordell show at The Station Inn about 4 years ago. A real gentleman and very gifted player. Thanks!
Mighty lonesome.
Very special! Thanks.
Boo-tee-full...troolie!
Welcome, David. We've played that mandolin. It's *fine*! Great tune.
Gorgeous tune, exquisitely played! Love it!
Very much enjoyed the tunes and your skillful playing. One thing I love about the cafe and Mandolin Mondays is that it brings me to beautiful music like this that I might not otherwise have encountered. Thanks!

Jimmy is a great picker. And Orrin was a friend of mine. Got to play that Rose A5 on a handful of occasions. A really fine mandolin! Happy to see Orrin being honored.
What a nice tune. - Love it !!!!!!!!!!
Great tune, wonderful tone and chops!
What a great way to begin the day, thanks.
What a treat and a pleasure. Many thanks.
Thanks for spreading the news. Jimmy asked me also. I'm thriiled Jimmy's dedicating his tune to Orrin, who was also a friend of mine... May he Rest in Peace. I met Orrin when I recorded him in 1975... http://frobbi.org/audio/starrmehalick.html
1980, I think, was the last big festival at Indian Springs, MD. Spectrum played Friday night. Part of their show was JAG playing a good instrumental while Shatz clogged. No other instruments. It’s been too long, but I think he was playing Blackberry Rag. It was my first festival and JAG was the first mandolin picker I remember. I have become a big fan of his steel guitar licks on mandolin. What a picker. Bob Simmers
Great to see JAG again! Excellent picking and tune.
Absolutely beautiful tune Jimmy. I've been a fan of you for years. Thanks so much for sharing with us.
