    Re: Blackberry Blossom

    I guess there is no real, baseline melody version. Each of the mentioned versions are great and listened to many wonderful versions on youtube. Each one is heavily embellished from the basic melody....

    Re: Mandolin on this British Sitcom?

    The whole 3 season series is sublime. Cast, writing, production and the celtic acoustic music is the perfect backdrop. Perfect pandemic binging.

    Re: Punch brothers

    5 people with acoustic instruments and 1 microphone = badass. This will inspire young musicians to pick up instruments again and create music.

    Re: A good reason to have more than one mandolin

    @Poul Hansen. This one hurt. So you think there's hope? I don't know what they used for finish in 1925. Just don't want to do anything and cause more harm. If we get a stain on a rug, we don't call...

    Re: Speed of bluegrass... is it just me?

    The magic is when the masters play fast/difficult but doesn't seem it. Ricky Skaggs, Mark O'Connor, etc. A little clip where I'm working up a Sam Bush bit with a metronome. It's OK-ish, but at the...
