Here's a video of Nashville Jam trading off verses of "Goodnight Irene" and doing a fine job one and all. My question is who is the tall woman who takes...
Thank you. The best Stan Rogers songs are well known. This is a song by a McGarrigle Associate; much less well known, but no less worthy. IMO.
Here's a lovely 3/4 tune out of the Kate and Anna McGarrigle factory. This one concerns the whistful owners of a farm that economics has moved on from. Ignore the recited first verse from Rufus...
I've coveted a mandocello since the day i heard someone playing an old Gibson K-1. This was the creamiest mandocritter I had ever tasted.
Recently, I went looking for something that might have a...
I've found Andrew Kuntz's Fiddler's Companion the most reliable (although not the most easy to use) source for questions of this nature. Here's what he has indexed under this title:
Earliest...
I'd think it's very likely 18th century, or earlier. The reference to pistols that have to be "charged" means that they're quite clearly flintlock pistols, which were becoming obsolete by the early...

This is a much-covered tune, but I don't don't know any that accomplish what the Shelton Brothers managed in this early cover of the Mississippi Sheiks' hit song.

Interesting that the body is wooden within and metal without.
I have other talents, but when when I hear guys your age sounding better that I ever have, I still feel ripped off by fate. Way to go!
I've found that most perplexing musical connundra of this nature go away on their own if you continue to practice while being mindful of the tone you're producing. Your hand will sort out what to do,...
He's owned it for 12 years and still doesn't know what it is?
To do that, you need a GDAD fretboard map as well as a map for the instrument the source tab is written for. These tell you the name of the note you get at each fret on each string. Since tab only...
I'm a complete amplification and effects pedals n00b. I hear sounds I've heard in music all my life without ever considering how they're made, but I'm coming to grips with my first emando and...
I dunno. Yes, the term refers directly to the shape of the head, because that's the most visible feature that distinguishes one set of mandolins from another. The folks who pay a 4-figure premium the...
Are you sure that the shrunken back isn't a case of missing binding?
Wood gets wider and thicker as it absorbs moisture, but it doesn't get longer. Ie, movement is across the grain, not along it. I suspect that in this case the top and back are changing in width as...
Really? I've never heard anything but respect, albeit heavily tinged with envy.
I've been listening to this recording again, and what I had to say above is still valid. There's a chunk in the middle I still haven't worked out, but It's fine playing overall. I wish I could do the...
Clear your cookies to reset the clock.
Luckily, the cure for both these conditions consists almost entirely of persistance.
You're right about ITM, but are you sure you posted to the right thread?
To say nothing of the fact that a large majority of the mandolins discussed on this forum are Gibson A and F model copies.
Well, that's hopeful.
