i am always totally amazed to watch the ultra efficient hands of Mike Compton. his left hand barely moves-almost as if it stays in contact with all the strings all the time and barely frets and moves...
Here's my little Christmas mp3 for 2021. I used my Ellis F5 and my Randy Lucas slope dread. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all my fellow Mandolin Cafe buddies!
