I was enjoying some Little Feat on the YouTube last night and the following came up in rotation. I was psyched to see Ry Cooder jamming with one of my favorite post-psychedelic bands, disappointed to learn it was just two separate clips put together for some reason, and finally pleased to see a different version of one of my all-time favorite mandolin performances. Another "Brownsville" - fine by me.
Also, taking the time to catch up on some folks posting links rather than videos. Now, for the sake of convenience:

Good old autoplay turned this up from three years ago. Guess I missed it because this is one of those internet-only non-broadcast extra songs. Looks like she's playing an emando. Can't tell the maker.

Thanks for helping with the office work. Far from the biggest deal, but still, it makes smoother viewing.
There's a brief tutorial somewhere in the Help section, but basically ...
In the url code that is displayed in the address bar for your clip, select and copy the string of characters after the watch?v= There should be 11 characters. In the post you are composing, click Go Advanced. Above the message pane you'll see a red youtube icon. Click on that, and paste the code into the space in the dialogue box that pops up. Press enter and, voila!

Might have been posted before. I think Martys' Gibson ? sounds a little 'richer' than Ronnies Gil. Wonderful all around, none the less.
And this is also wonderful !

Somebody tell me this isn't the most beautiful mando piece ever.
Xtra Strings with Andy Statman's Flatbush Waltz.
as the kids say thats a "drop the mike" type of deal there
Not sure if this has been posted before in the past 50 pages or elsewhere but ... Chris Thile enjoying a little (well, a big) mandocello at Carter's Vintage is definitely a keeper.
This popped up following the above Thile on Mandocello vid.... pretty awesome... Mike Marshall goes through a couple of pieces on the instrument... The same Bach piece as well as wayfaring stranger... GOOD stuff

Thought I'd share this with all y'all. Came up in conversation elsewhere, and it occurred to me that though I've occasionally mentioned my dexterity on this crude yet evocative instrument, I may not have offered an example for your edification, entertainment, and/or amusement. So here you go.
This is our award-winning performance in the Group category at last year's conch shell blowing contest. It's really the incredibly charming Clementine's doing; I'm just backing her up with a little counterpoint. Fun stuff. But I'm not going to quit my day job.
From my championship performance in the Adult Male category in 2011. I also played "Smoke On The Water." Note the hat. Yep - this is the kind of stuff I put up on YouTube.

For your listening pleasure:
I mentioned some time back I was impressed with what I'd herd from Jessie Baylin. I just learned she has a fairly new album out - well, a year old now ... not exactly getting the promotion she deserves. While searching for clips I stumbled onto this live performance of my favorite song of hers. It's from Grimey's, a record store in Nashville - while scanning I thought it said "Grammys" and thought, "Wow! I didn't know she played the Grammys! Missed that." Anyway ... While my favorite version is still the first one I saw on Carson Daly, at The Troubadour, with The Watson Twins on backing vocals, the guitar lead on this impressed me mightily, so I thought I'd share it.
Also I thought I'd embed this from the link in post #1516. Not exactly sure who this is, but there's a lot of good stuff going on here.

As there was "Helena" from Session Americana:
One of my favorite clips these days: Great Western Rail. Written and sung by Jefferson Hamer with Session Americana. Recorded live in the studio at Armory Sound, Somerville MA.
It is online only for a few weeks and I have listened to it really many times.
Just saw this posted on facebook. Quiet, sparse, lovely. A little flourish on mandolin. Not sure by whom, as there are three mandolinists listed in the credits. One of them is Sam Bush, but I don't think it's him.
It's from Loretta's album "Full Circle." her first studio album in 10 years.Released in March, it debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard Country chart and No. 19 on Billboard 200, the highest in her career on that chart. I didn't even know it was out. Nashville does this all the time, though - somehow staying current means ignoring the past, or at best taking it for granted.

Give it a chance. Don't have any fluids in your mouth: https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/par...urce=feed_text
All four parts of this interview are posted on another thread, but in case you missed them ...
The third part includes Tony's "world premiere" performance of a new song called "Hickory Mountain."

I didn't go through all 61 pages of this thread, so please excuse me if this is a duplicate post - but I just came across it, and even though I am generally not a fan of fast playing, I thought this was MOST impressive . . . .
