Currently stealing Sierra's triplet lick. Thanks for posting!
Kenny Werner teaches this to composers in his book "Effortless Mastery". It has been such a huge help to me as a composer, and often keeps me from getting in a rut. Kenny tells his students to wait...
So true! As Michael says in the The Music Lesson, "I can't teach you anything, I can only SHOW you". By the way, I met Michael a while back! He said they're writing a second book. And to the OP,...
This is an awesome resource!
Congrats on your first post, and welcome to the Cafe!
Musicality is absolutely a teachable skill, but most teachers don't know how to teach it and a great many of them don't posses the skillset...
This was a fascinating read!
Awesome track! Downloading on iTunes, but definitely gonna have to get a hard copy!
Here's the Brad Folk version: https://www.amazon.com/Somewhere-Away-Bradford-Bluegrass-Playboys/dp/B00JYTL1ZQ
Here's Nick Woods' website, but I don't see the song on there. I know he has a...
Thanks Drew, I'm so glad you're enjoying the music! I didn't know about the Salty Suites cut of "Somewhere Far Away". I'll have to check that out! Have you heard Brad Folk's version? Nick Woods,...
Thank you! I'm looking forward to releasing the project!
lol, Cashew didn't like that someone was walking down the sidewalk. That's her sidewalk!
Thanks! Becky Buller had it made for me and it's one of a kind.
Manzanita for sure! The song and the album. Sam's solo on the cut "Old Train" is a favorite of mine.

Thank you! I'm happy you enjoyed the videos and my playing. I'm getting back into doing YouTube videos, so keep an eye on my channel. Joe is such a great player and I'm happy to hear you're learning...
How exciting! I hope you post a video when you get it!
Thanks Ron! I hope you enjoy the video!
I believe so. I remember seeing a Cafe thread a while back where someone was talking about visiting the Ellis/Pava shop.
You're welcome, Em Tee! I used a Bluechip TAD-3R 50 in all of the videos.
The Carter Vintage Guitars YouTube channel has a lot of videos where you can see different mandolins played by the same player, and in some cases, more than one player.
Here are a few I filmed at...
It was fun hanging with you too! I can't wait for Kamp 2019! I'll have my mando along even though I'm officially on the devil's instrument that week.
I have two Pava mandolins, an A Player model and an F5 Pro model. Both are outstanding. My Pava F5 #194, A.K.A "Wonderbat" is my favorite mandolin I've ever played, and I've played a lot of really...
That sounds like a great subject for a future video series! In the meantime, I've got this song I want you to kick off. 1, 2, 3, 4.....
Hi Ron,
The video is for beginning improvisers and applies to all styles. Although my main gig is in a bluegrass band, (check out the Becky Buller Band!) I enjoy playing and teaching a variety of...
Hi Pete,
The video will work on iPhones and iPads and it requires that files be synced via iTunes first. Download the file to your computer first and then sync it through iPad's iTunes, and you're...
Thank you for your kind words Oliver. I really enjoy picking with and I'm so proud of the progress you made during that six months of lessons. Your practice really paid off and you sound great!
