    I must be missing this!?...
    I've casually scanned the thread/list and haven't seen any mention of Reckless Kelly and Cody Braun's Rickenbacker emando.
    Here are a couple of nice, intimate setting videos:



    And what is probably their signature tune up to this point:



    If they've been mentioned before in the thread and I just missed it, I apologize for the redundancy.

    Good ones Ed, and here's one featuring Cody on his Rick starting at about 40 seconds into the clip, including a nice little solo at a bit past one minute...

Thanks to you or anyone who can enlighten us about Dylan.
    i will check it out jb,not much to go by on some of the credits on dylan's stuff..at least what i have..but,i'll check around online,maybe spend a couple days listening..i'll report back,and if anyone else knows??

    I Heard Springsteen's 'Glory Days' on a very high quality car stereo yesterday (for the first time since my conversion to Mandolinism), and I was very pleased/surprised by how good the mandolin part sounds!
    Is that Miami Steve playing?, and is he playing a vintage oval hole Gibson?
    All in all, pretty cool!

    Gee willikers, Dan! You are really showing some devotion to this project - and surely listening to some great music along the way. May I assume that was George playing it with the Wilburys? He did play it a bit. Any further news on Dylan? And Ed - I believe it was indeed Steve VZ playing, as he played it in the recent concert movie.

    Just trying to keep things right - I don't hear any mandolin on "Song For Jeffrey". Some nice acoustic guitar, particularly the slide work, but no mandolin. Too bad - one of my favorite Tull songs.

    And I would say "Fat Man," "Tall Thin Girl," "Fat Man," in that order.

    We need to add Levon Helm You Can't Lose What You Ain't Never Had to our list. Like Tennessee Jed it's on the Electric Dirt album, and mandolin is the lead instrument. It's a great tune, with a steady tremolo held through much of the song, and with killer vocals by Helm. You can listen to the song here.

    Alpha Band: "Keep It in the Family"
    Alpha Band: "Mighty Man"
    Alpha Band: "Rich Man"
    Alpha Band: "Not Everything Has a Price"

    The mandolinist is David Mansfield (the dude from Bruce Hornsby's "Mandolin Rain" video), who composed the soundtrack for Robert Duvall's film The Apostle and has posted here a couple of times. Believe he played an old Gibson A on the Alpha Band sessions. If anyone ever compiles a "rock songs with violin" thread, they should take note of David's kickin' fiddle break on "Dark Eyes."

    "Sunday Walking Lady" from Wally, one of my favourite bands in 1974. They were discovered by Bob Harris & Rick Wakeman and signed to Atlantic. At the time, they were described as symphonic prog rock, but always sounded more country/folk rock to me. Check out the track "The Martyr" which was probably the closest they got to prog rock.

    The first album credits Pete Sage as the mandoline player - he probably did play on the studio recording of this track, but it's Paul Middleton playing on this youtube clip. Simple strumming, but a nice track nevertheless.

    Thanks so much for posting that vid; I loved that song, and totally wore out the grooves on that album.

    Here is another 70's "prog rock" band featuring mandolin (emando in this case) that I listened to a lot back in the day.

    Hey Jim - It was the fiddle part which hooked me too! I saw Wally live in Barrow-in-Furness, UK around '74. A very memorable gig; there seemed to be quite a few spaced out jam sections in between numbers; I remember being stunned by the sound of the pedal steel through various echo units - much more Mellotron live too. Minimal mandolin in that song, but it does add a little seasoning!

    I got to hear FM in the mid/late '70's, but I've not seen any vids of Nash the Slash before :-)

    You can several other FM and Nash vids on YT. My favorites are of live performances in the 70's as above, but there are some pretty bad 80's era MTV-type videos you can check out there as well - lol

    Led Zeppelin overall is one of the best bands I have ever came across. Jimmy Page and the whole group have so many talents and John Paul Jones was even a multi-instrumentalist. I agree with you.
