I think this one really suites the mandolin, you can drag really it out and get everyone sobbing Played here though on my 'dola:
Very soulful, Tavy! I did this one on guitar on YouTube almost 3 years ago, so I'll post it below as a contrast - I could only muster 6 strings for this version... I play it with G voicing, capo'ed on the 4th fret to add some brightness, which puts it in B. I used to plug directly in to the recorder in those days, and add some reverb - none of which I do now.
Very nice Tavy. Love the sound of your 'dola. Gary
Will - love your version - still I can't help but thinking that 5 fingers to my one pick is cheating >Very nice Tavy. Love the sound of your 'dola. Cheers Gary, commissions greatfully received, though I can't promise how long they might take!!
I would like that Tavy, but I'm a GDAE kinda guy. I wouldn't know what to do with a C string. Besides, I'm already commissioned to the max. Even had to make a deal with the Devil for my second child. Problem is I only have one and I'm 60+. So I had better get busy in the next few months.
Great tune and great stuff Tavy & Will, love it.....
>I would like that Tavy, but I'm a GDAE kinda guy. >I wouldn't know what to do with a C string. >Besides, I'm already commissioned to the max. No sweat, I was half in jest anyway - I'm still very much a "learning builder"! Good luck with the Devil and the second child
Tavy its a great tune and sounds beatiful on dola. Its very late at my office i'm alone and the only thing I have hear right now is a resonator mandolin....but I'm inspired so I hope I don't bruise the tune too badly
Here it is from late last night
dcdan, it seems you have something to show / tell us... but can't get it right! Keep on trying!
http://youtu.be/znseLWb-trs maybe that will work or at least point to the video
Let's see if I can get this work
thanks...

You're welcome! Glad you kept trying... it's a great rendition!
Over the Rainbow (reprise) 20 minutes to tune, 2 minutes to play.
This is based more on Israel Kamakawiwoʻole's version rather than the traditional Judy Garland's version, but still a lotta fun!
