Hey Glauber,
I will take a stab at it. One major difference in the two styles is the instrumentation. For example a sitar is almost never found in Carnatic Music. They often use earlier versions of...

Sure Mr. Mando,
I will try to PM you and we can work something out. I just got a few more of his CD from a friend who recently got back from India.

I have traveled to South India a few times, I read these comments with a smile. I would say that the description of the artist and the promoters is "so very south Indian". When I am in India I often...

I played both the Collins and the Rigel at Mandolin Brothers and went for the Rigel. I love the thing, and frankly I think my Rigel is very versatile.

I saw an all red Flatiron Pancake in a store the other day. Not sure of the model or year. I really enjoyed playng it but the guy wanted $1000 for it! That seems a VERY high to me. What is the going...

Hey Will!
Thanks for the clarification. This is indeed a great tune for the Mandolin. Now if I could only play those chord changes up to speed! Well I guess there is always tomorrow...
Thanks...

Thanks petimar,

This is a big help.

... and I have been dropping the #11 from that C7 chord...I might be a mando playing yogi but its not happening this week.

Thanks for the suggestions!
There is no question I am a bit over my head on this one...
